Now, they are stuck with Sanchez next year because he has 8.3 million in guaranteed money.

Interesting note on Tebow:

Tebow takes a seat: As expected, Tebow was inactive. He was medically cleared, sources said, but he sat based on a coach's decision.
Rapid Reaction: Jets 7, Cardinals 6 - Jets Blog - ESPN New York

Tannenbaum is the Jets' own Vinny.

Detroit Defense or Chicago Defense? Luck did it against a piss poor defense/team and still threw 3 picks.

Wilson on the road against the Bears...yep he is amazing.

Luck will likely be 1 and done in the playoffs. Wheareas Wilson and the Seahawks will probably win a game.

Regardless, as many have pointed out, this is turning out to be a heck of a QB class (Luck, RG3, Wilson, and Tannehill).

For that matter so did kapernick. Luck is damn good, i would of been happy with him or RGIII. Luck has had many come back wins this year.

This could go down the top QB class of all time when all is said and done.

Well might as well go with him. He did get them to the AFC Championship twice and I seriously doubt any team is going to fix their QB situation this offseason with the draft and the odds of finding a good free agent QB are extremely rare. The only decent solution I can think of is trading for Matt Flynn. That or draft Geno Smith.

Ironically though in looking forward to the 2014 draft there isn't a promising sure fire first rounder thats trending in the right direction. Just a bunch of looks like Tarzan plays like Jane types. Sure an Andy Dalton, Russell Wilson, or even an RG3 could emerge but right now it's not looking promising. We might be even luckier then we think to have not only scooped up RG3 but Kirk Cousins as well as the QB market is starting to mirror the early 2000's.

Don't forget that Alex Smith will be available in the QB market in the offseason.

I think the Jets should continue to start McElroy.

I don't really think Kaepernick is all that great. What has he done that Smith didn't do?

Very true. So basically if you're looking for a QB you have to decide between the following.

Early Draft: Geno Smith and Matt Barkley

2nd or 3rd Round: Tyler Wilson, Mike Glennon

Free Agency or Trade: Alex Smith, Matt Flynn, Michael Vick, Matt Moore

Great year to need a QB eh boys?

All that matters is my J-E-T-S Jets Jets Jets won!

I think it's more about his physical abilities. Better runner, bigger arm, more upside.

Sanchez was amazing in that win

Guys, do you all really think Luck is better than RG III and should be ROY?

RG III has been NFC player of the week twice ( should have been a third time last week as he had a better statistical game the Cam in a much bigger game ) and has been named the Offensive rookie of the month 2 out of 3 possible months this season.

He has transformed one of the worst offenses in the league for the past how many years? into one of the best scoring teams in the league.

Luck is benefitting from an entire team being led by their coaches personal problems and the energy that it has created on a local and national scale. They are saving him from all of his mistakes.

RG III on the other hand has single handedly inspired, drove, and led his team to the success they are having. The defensive players that have played RG III have raved about his complete game and amazing athleticism. I don't hear that from others around the league regarding the other two.

To me there is no question he is the ROY if he finishes the way he has started. Even if he brings the skins to a 8-8 season it is pretty remarkable considering how poor our defense is. ( still believe he has the ability to get us to 9-7 or 10-6 )

He appears to be a guy that has the ability to show everyone something they have never seen.

RG3 over Luck just based on the fact Luck sounds like a young Andre the Giant when he speaks. I just cant deal with that.
