"The New York Jets are off to another rough start, going 1-5 through six games in 2014. Quarterback Geno Smith hasn't helped much, completing just 57.1 percent of his passes while posting a 69.7 passer rating. Apparently, Geno doesn't think his struggles have been his fault. According to Manish Mehta from the New York Daily News, Smith said during a conference call with New England media that his issues were because of the media. Manish Mehta @MMehtaNYDN In a conference call with New England media, Geno Smith blamed his issues this season on the media. Really. #nyj Manish Mehta @MMehtaNYDN Geno: "Obviously with everything that goes on with the media, a lot of things are, I would say, miscommunicated..." (cont) #nyj Manish Mehta @MMehtaNYDN More Geno on blaming media for his issues: "and then it just gets misprinted and then misunderstood." #nyj Manish Mehta @MMehtaNYDN I hope this doesn't get "miscommunicated" or "misprinted": Geno Smith said "F-- you" to a fan twice & missed a team meeting on eve of a game Manish Mehta @MMehtaNYDN Hope this doesn't get "miscommunicated" or "misprinted" either: Geno has worst QB rating among starters & next-to-last in completion% in NFL Manish Mehta @MMehtaNYDN Hope this doesn't get "miscommunicated" or "misprinted": Geno Smith is 9-13 as a starter & thrown an INT in 18 of 22 career games. #nyj" http://m.bleacherreport.com/article...dly-blames-the-media-for-his-poor-2014-season And see: "FLORHAM PARK -- Having a rough season, eh, Geno Smith? Smith, the Jets' quarterback, was asked during a conference call with Patriots reporters Monday how "topsy-turvy" his season seems to appear from afar. The Jets play at the Patriots Thursday night. What say Geno? "For me, it hasn’t been," Smith said, according to a transcript of the call. "I think, obviously, with everything that goes on with the media, a lot of things are, I would say, miscommunicated, and then it just gets misprinted and then misunderstood. "I don’t have any quarrels with anything. The main thing is that we just have to find a way to get a win. The hardest part about it all is losing. With the effort, the time that we put in, the preparation that we put in throughout the week, coming up with game plans—we always have a really good game plan going in—and then obviously we haven’t executed as well as we’d like. Those things are tougher than I guess what can be said and what is portrayed out there in the media." "Miscommunicated," "misprinted," and "misunderstood"? Oh? Look, Smith has dealt with some stupid from the media this season. But every pro athlete works his butt off to prepare for every game he plays, and part of every pro athlete's burden is the reality of being in a results-oriented business: You either win or you lose. Smith did curse at a fan after he got booed during a home game two weeks ago. He did miss a meeting (albeit accidentally!) on the night before a game the following week. He has turned the ball over in every game this season. And the Jets are 1-5 and have lost five games in a row. Just a hunch, but all of that might explain a lot of what gets "portrayed out there in the media" about Geno Smith." http://www.nj.com/jets/index.ssf/20...onference_call_with_patriots_reporters_1.html
The Bleacher Report app is by far the BEST sports app I've ever had. Hands down. The most in depth articles, detailed video reviews on players, etc. Amazing app that I recommend for everyone.
Give it a try for yourself then. There's a reason it's the best rated app in the sports market. Not just my opinion. And your opinion about something you've never tried means even more shit.
Well they are getting off to a good start. An "article" with 2 ridiculous statements and the rest just Twitter posts stolen from a dumb fuck reporter. Awesome work right there.
There are quite a few good Jet beat writers, why do people limit themselves to Manish Mehta? Why do that to yourself?
It's not about Manish Mehta lol Geno Smith is quoted in a phone interview claiming the media has overblown or misinterpreted things. The point is, how is him saying fuck you to a fan and him missing a team meeting misinterpreted? Another excuse for yet another problem.
This fuckin kid just cant keep his mouth shut. Everyday that passes is one more pile of dirt being shoveled on his career as an NFL starting QB.
The media HAS treated the Jets like trash. A player calls them out on it and it's the player who is in the wrong? Are you kidding me?
Not my headline. Just posting an article. Another article about it on another website: " FLORHAM PARK -- Having a rough season, eh, Geno Smith?
