Greg McElroy will make first career start for NY Jets

Let me see, Coach Rex Ryan sticks with Sanchez despite his many interceptions, fumbles, & other miscues all season long, but when they get eliminated from the playoffs, NOW he looks to someone else to start. Great coaching there Rex.

There is nothing more I would like to see than GMAC become a starter. I don't know if he has what it takes to be an NFL starter or not. There is nothing wrong with being a career back-up QB. This game will be important to show that he can play and produce when called on.

After he won the game he played he wasn't activated for the next two games. No wonder Sanchez didn't get pulled, they had nobody to back him up. I use to like Rex Ryan but I have lost all confidence in him as a Head Coach. I would to see Greg become a starter and get the chance, but I sure wish it was some where else besides New York. They love to boo a player and won't think twice. RTR!

Rex Ryan realizes that sometime in the near future, GMac will be his boss.

GMac will get his chance to show what he can do.  I'm sure he will be well prepared.  In an odd way, his being injured this year may have helped him to learn stuff that hopefully he can now execute.

But the Jets are a team in disarray.  I'm concerned that the OL and maybe receivers won't play hard for Greg.  Jets are out of the playoffs.  Less to play for.  Guys don't want to take a chance on getting injured.  I hope they will have a good plan for the offense.

I think GMac may be a better QB than some NFL starters and I hope he shows that.  Maybe some teams will take note and try to get him in a trade.

I think the difference will be GM smarts and not put the Jets in bad situations.  I don't like Rex Ryan, but I do like GM.  Good Luck to this young man.

He beats out a QB who never played in college, and beats Tebow once again.  I wonder if he made Tebow cry.

I heard early this morning that Tebow wants to be traded if GMac starts. Ryan may not have much character but he cannot afford to let Tebow run his team.

I don't think Rex Ryan wanted Tebow to begin with. The Jets need to trade him or cut him but he is too big of a distraction to keep on the team.

This is what Joe Namath had to say about Sanchez and the Jets today.

He didn't mention Greg McElroy, but I saw him interviewed on TV a few weeks ago and he couldn't stop talking about the Crimson Tide.
