Geno Smith A "No Show" At Sanchez Led Jets West Camp

You want him to go to a "team building camp" run by the guy he's supposed to beat out? They guy that the team is hoping goes sailing in the North Atlantic in a leaky canoe with no life preserver?

Sanchez sucks. But that's not the reason Geno doesn't go to his camp. It's because Sanchez sucks and Geno was signed to take his job, sooner, much sooner rather than later. You don't pal around with a guy that everyone who is associated with the Jets wants off the team. The only people that management/ownership wanted at Sanchez's camp were hot dog vendors and gold digging football groupies. That dude is a walking black ball.

Go for the teammates that don't know you and prefer Sanchez right now. By not going all you're doing is reinforcing any divide that might exist on the team.

He's a 2nd round pick. Sure they'd like him to replace Sanchez, but nothing is guaranteed, and my guess it if Smith acts like the job is his without putting in the work, and doing things maybe he doesn't want to, it never will his job.

From all indications, he's been training in Florida. That's putting in real work versus hanging out with Hot Dog at a camp which probably doesn't amount to more than Sanchez chortling about the high schoolers he's recently banged.

It's not "team building" when the camp is run by a guy who everyone knows is going to get cut as soon as it's financially acceptable to do so, especially when that guy has the job you are going to take.

Going to Sanchez's camp is like going to a sales seminar run by the worst sales person in your entire company who is on administrative leave.

The stupid is in full force in this thread.

If Geno is thinking like you're thinking he'll never be a starting QB.

Okay Vince Lombardi Jr.

So why isn't Mangold or Ferguson or any of the veterans at Sanchez's "camp?"

Are they pieces of shit just like you are trying to make Geno out to be because they aren't attending this all important team building camp that isn't team sanctioned and only a bunch of slap dicks showed up for?

Really?

So, you think that a rookie QB not attending a non-sanctioned weekend get together in SoCal run by the worst quarterback in the league, a guy whose job you are supposed to take, is a mistake?

What does how good or bad Sanchez is have to do with it? If he was the 14th best QB should Smith go? Sure you don't have to go and its not NFL sanctioned, but it seems like some extra time to get to know teammates, many starting skill players, you hope will have your back later. I see much more good than bad about going to this.

yes, i do.

It's not about whether he can learn more at the camp vs alone. It's about being the bigger man and building team chemistry.

not going sets up a public Sanchez vs Smith which he shouldn't do
not going means that he gets less time with team mates
not going makes him look petty and plays into the "attitude" rumors from college

only reason not to go is because he can't get over the butthurt of the draft and not being 'the' guy from the beginning.

He should go and do his best to be a professional and team player.

Hell ... if he throws and performs well at this camp it would spread positive rumors throughout the players before he takes a single snap at TC.

Then talk to your agent or media guy and come up with a response. There are a million ways to have spun this positively. Instead, he chose to throw his teammate under the bus. He acted like he would rather develop himself than gel with his teammates, which makes him look like a loner. He apparently was instructed to answer "no comment" and chose to throw a dig in. And this is one of a million interviews where he acts like he has some giant chip on his shoulder.

And now he created drama where there didn't need to be, he hurt his reputation with his teammates, and showed that he can't follow simple instructions. All at a time when people already believe you're uncoachable. Not a good start.

The drama was started by ignorant fans looking for something that isn't there.

Geno is training down in Florida. Sanchez is running a cocktail party in California for nobodies:

Sanchez tweeted photos Thursday from the camp, with running back Chris Ivory, tight end Jeff Cumberland and wide receivers Stephen Hill, Jeremy Kerley, Clyde Gates, Jordan White, Ryan Spadola and Vidal Hazelton among those in attendance.

And you are bitching that Geno is missing out on team building by not going to Sanchez's SoCal summer bash? That's a bunch of guys who aren't even going to be on the freaking team.

Say "no comment" or have a prepared response. Especially if that's what the team is instructing you to do
Don't throw your teammate under the bus and lie about not being invited
Don't act like you're not attending because you're above it all

These wouldn't be big issues if he didn't build a reputation for being uncoachable. His agent and his coach should be disgusted with him. Sadly, neither are going to do anything about it and his attitude will continue to be a problem.

The starting RB, WR, and TE are going.

Most of those guys will be on the team. Some of them starting.

Tebow went last year.

This is about CHARACTER. You go and hang out with teammates, bond and practice a little. Sanchez knows his job is on the line yet Smith was welcome to join in. Just like the Senior Bowl, he opted out.

The kid just keeps making bad decision after bad decision.
