You have to question our 2 QBs general awareness, if not intelligence. The starter in the midst of a 3 game losing streak, where he is playing poorly to the point fans and the media are calling for him to be benched decides to go to a movie the day prior to a game and misses a pre-game meeting. The back-up knowing all this apparently did not think there was a chance his number would be called. Was Sanchez really so bad that we had to move on to this nonsense?
This isnt news. If you couldnt tell that he wasnt prepared by looking at him on the sideline then you are lost to begin with.
Gotta go with Simms as the backup now. Release Vick, and have a short leash with Geno this week. May as well tank this season, whether there is a franchise QB or not.
The guy was honest and said it wouldn't happen again. He's not used to being the backup. What about the coaching staff at practice. Isn't that Lee's job to make sure his Qbs are prepared.
these jets players sure will run through a wall for Rex. They may not practice properly or prepare properly, but they are ready to run through that wall dammit.
Vick was the best FA Qb available. So you gave Rex the best Qb, Wr and running back in free agency and some of you still say it wasn't enough. How's about some discipline and coaching for a change.
Rex definitely deserve criticism on this but so does the guy responsible for bringing in a FA vet not professional enough to be ready to play. Then again at least this FA vet didn't go awol prior to the game.
Yup. He had his hat on and probably believed he wasnt going to play. Rex also pretty much hinted according to the commentators the night before geno would remain no matter what happens.
You would also think he'd be ready because the entire world was calling on Rex to give Geno the hook after his recent play. Vick is here for the paycheck. It's been clear since TC that he doesn't give a shit about this team.
Well yeah because he knows he has no future here. Just trying to see if he can be a little coach for geno while he enjoys the nyc skyline.
Davis questions how the Jets practice, Mangold states they need sharper practices and now Vick isn't prepared. Anyone who thinks this is merely a Vick issue either has blinders on or is incapable of seeing big pictures.
Well he's old and injury prone, who in their right mind would go with him as their starting QB unless he looks awesome in the preseason? Not to mention he went to a team with a starting 2nd year QB who was selected in the early rounds of the draft. Players can't have that attitude, especially those who are a bad game or injury away from starting. The football culture on this team is really really poor and it all goes to the head coach to set the stage for these players.
The Eagles did just last year when he beat out Nick Foles in the preseason. I heard that Chip Kelly guy knows a thing or two about offense and QB play. The Jets never gave him a chance to compete for the starting spot which is probably part of the reason he's checked out.
Ha ha. For a player to make a statement like that, he has to have a lot of guts. Or be dumb as a rock. DD has spoken up before. He will catch it from is teammates, but deep down they will know that he is right.
