    $2.4mil per TD
    $95k per completion
    $8328 per yard

    Which is most disturbing?

    Good call. It makes me angry that this guy gets to play 6 bad football games, and now gets to relax and make 12 million dollars. What an absurd amount of money to do nothing. I'm jealous and bitter that I bust my butt and work hard 5 days a week, and he makes 4 times the amount of money that I'll make in my lifetime to play a few games and do nothing.

    look at it this way.. With most players suffering from Arthritis, Dementia, Concussion Syndromes, etc, Fitz will suffer in his later years whereas you most likely won't given even the most rudimentary healthy life style.

    Well the GM and the Head Coach came into this thing with a five year plan. I don't want the team to be like the Cleveland Browns who blowup braintrust every 2 years.

    I know but the mind-numbingly bad coaching is beyond some 2nd year growning pains.
    From top to bottom this team is the most inept I've ever seen them.
    It'd be different if we didn't have talent and we were rebuilding.

    Teams get into funks when they start losing - there was even a ball the D tipped in Arizona in the 4th Qtr that fell into the arms of one of their receivers.

    What hurt was seeing the D concede some much on the ground and relatively easily - may be a sign Harris was more important than we Monday Morning QBs realised

    Fitz is Fitz but I am gutted that he played so badly and had hoped once he signed he could do well. Unfortunately I saw his style of play when we went against him when he played for the Bills - a poor man's Favre. All too often he would pick up chunks after the Bills were out of the game and end up with padded stats. In shoot outs I recall he threw picks that cost the team - again what we see here.

    Lets hope that our QB play improves but also that the other areas of the team improve and show pride in the jersey

    Being the son of a former jets season ticket holder was a major mistake

    Exactly, I'd rather put faith in Bowles to adjust for another year than become the Browns. Just constantly haphazardly firing coaches with worse and worse results? Screw that!

    Whining about everybody who makes more money than you is no way to go through life kid. You could also be the best damn janitor in Aleppo you know.

    of course woody is going to want to trade for him.
    Old QB with his best days behind him - Check
    Take on a crazy contract while sacrificing another draft pick on a older player - Check
    Big name player to get fans excited - Check

    The day the Jets hire a former baseball GM as their Chief Strategy Officer is the day I say that they've become the Browns...

    Holy shit, why did you have to mention this? This disaster never even crossed my mind, now it makes too much sense for Woodrow not to do it...

    Required therapy for Jets fans who have watched this bum lead our team to ruin. Watch this video once for each interception the Jets have thrown so far this season:

    Feeling better now.
