The game was already over before interception 2 and 3 were thrown. First one was terrible....but I dont know how any fan can honestly be satisfied with this defense so far. This wasnt supposed to be a bottom 3 secondary...asking Fitzpatrick to make up for a defense who cant stop anyone is always going to result in bad.

It did. And him going after Sherman again was flat out stupid. But asking Fitzpatrick to play a perfect game against Seattle wasnt going to happen. We need contributions from the secondary...a turnover, something. The roster is geared heavily towards the defense and they're getting killed through the air weekly.

I gotta say, I'm very happy the Jets have Calvin Pryor instead of Derek Carr :francis:

That's the thing....there have been QB's to be had...we just never take them or take the wrong one. Failure from the top down.

No....asking a qb to not have any stupid turnovers of his type and leaving points on the field isn't asking for too much.

You're forgetting him short throwing Marshall on that 40 yarder which could have been a 90 yard TD and him floating the ball on Anderson which was another TD.

That's 14 points there as well. It isn't only about the turnovers. Let's stop lightening the problem here. He's the biggest culprit.

There are ways to evaluate the team without pinning all of the blame on one player. You're hell bent on making the entire year about Fitzpatrick....the whole team has stunk.

He's the QB, of course its the biggest problem. The entire QB situation is a mess as is the roster.

The thing with the jets is they basically have no premier young offensive talent. You know how like the Bucs have Mike Evans or the Rams have Todd Gurley, Giants ODB etc they don't have anybody like that. Forte, Mangold, Marshall, and decker are all 30 and up.

This is what happens when you draft defense in the first round 7 years in a row and all your second round picks on offense flame out. Which wouldn't be a problem if you had a Broncos or Seattle type of dominating scary defense but that's not what the jets have.

Quiet as kept, that's a huge problem too. They've spent a TON of high draft picks on their defense and it's still shytty. When you spend like that, they need to be utterly dominant and they're simply not.

Seeing Lynch play yesterday has Jets fans furious.

If Lynch keeps playing and playing well, Jets fans are gonna have heart attacks, wondering why we passed up on him :heh:
