He may shit the bed next year but at least give him the opportunity to not shit the bed.

Nice post.

Geno Smith had a better season this year than Washington Prince RGIII.

Luck and Wilson have unrealistically shifted fan expectations of rookie QB's. Those two guys are the exception, not the rule.

Alex Smith is not going anywhere.

Never said he was, it's just my opinion that if he shits himself in the playoff game we need to reevaluate the QB position. I fully agree he will be the starter here in 2014 barring serious injury. But, there needs to be heat on him to up his performance, as his numbers this year are pretty vanilla (factor out Raider game and AS #'s are borderline pathetic) considering how the NFL's rules are currently designed to promote Arena-esque passing totals. Alex plays QB like it is the mid 90's.

Mark Sanchez did that in 15 starts that's right it took Geno 1 more start to reach 8 wins then it took Sanchez :clap:

And some of the young guys like Kaep and RG3 regressed a bit. Luck and Wilson look like they are going to be starting for quite some time though.

He also won 4 playoff games in his first two seasons. That's doubled the combined amount of Alex Smith and the Kansas City Chiefs in the last 20 years :clap:

Check and mate for the The BCD. Thanks for playing.

People can be skeptics of their team's choices and still be a fan of the team. Comparing their team's choices with that of other teams is perfectly viable. Be a little more dynamic in your thought process here, or maybe you are just missing the point?

It's nice to be optimistic. I guess I'm pessimistic, but I thought he wasn't going to be good to begin with. I'm not a Jets fan, and I'm not a Geno fan, so there's that too.

I don't know. How many? I know Matt Cassel won ten games twice. Will Geno be as good as Cassel?

yeah i think i know what you meant there at the end, think u had a typo but i agree.

He kind of did because he finished the season and RGIII got benched.

What were the Jets options at QB? Geno deserved to be benched, many times.
