    To hell with the second round pick, I'm hungry. Send me a deep dish with black olives, tomatoes and anchovies and I'll ship him free of charge.

    Urlacher, Briggs and Berrian + their first round pick next year for Chad, McMisseseverything and Vilma.

    Otherwise no, I wouldn`t even bother.

    Yeah, the LA thing was a big part of it. Those last four years were all I remember of Namath, I started watching in 1974 and we were bad. Any pass rush at all and it was a sack or an INT. I'm too young to remember, but I think drafting Richard Todd #1 in 1976 was what finally got the ball rolling for Joe's exit. Some of the older guys (if they're reading this thread :lol: ) might want to clarify this, but I don't know if the Jets had sought a replacement prior to Todd.

    Jordan was the reason a lot of guys from that era didn't end up with titles. And the Jordan rules, of course.

    And the fact that they had to start Brian Griese is only making my case

    Chad could start for around half the teams in the league.

    He's not staying as a backup.

    You're on crack. Chad could start for at least half the teams in the league and be an improvement. He's a great fit for the Bears, Vikings, Chargers, Ravens, etc. I even say that if you put him on the Patriots for the past 5 years, he still wins at least one of those Superbowls.

    Especially with Tom Brady filling in every time he missed games due to injury.

    With the Pats line over the years, he never would have sustained those injuries.

    We had excellent O lines every year except 05. He tore his shoulder in 04 when we had the league leader in rushing.

    This is one of the funniest things I've heard in a while, and I just saw the Lord of the Rings episode of Flight of the Conchords. Thank you winstonbiggs.

    I think you're missing about 10 teams. I think there's more than a good chance that he would start for the following teams:
    Houston
    Oakland
    Washington
    Tampa
    Miami
    Detroit
    Baltimore
    and a few more possibilites if these teams were worried about winning now rather than building for the future:
    Arizona
    San Fran
    NY Giants
    Denver
    Tennessee
    San Diego
    Pittsburgh
    I'm not saying Chad would DEFINITELY start for all of these teams or that even a fraction of these teams would consider trading for him, but I think it's reasonable to add these to your list of teams "he COULD start for" if given a fair shot at the starting job.

    No chance in hell for any of these and this is coming from a Chad supporter

    I'd rather take Mark Anderson (a guy BTW we should have drafted in the 06 draft with one of our 3rd round picks instead of Shlegel and Smith) off their hands and play him at OLB. They already have Alex Brown and Ogunleye.

    I'm not disagreeing with you, just stating that they had to do something. I spend a lot of time out there, this is not a new thing. If Rex hasn't gotten any better by now he isn't going to.

    Like I said, If we consider that teams need to prepare for the future, then no very unlikely. But in terms of ability to win right now, I think you can argue that Chad is competitive with those teams' QBs.
    I'm definitlely not saying that they would ever trade for Chad and start him. I'm just trying to make a point to those in this forum who forget that unlike most teams, we have a proven winner at QB. Not a Tom Brady level QB but someone who at this stage is probably going to give you a better shot at winning than Alex Smith
