Tim Tebow Gets the Last Laugh on the New York Jets
It's been a heck of a year for young Tim Tebow. He never really got the chance to play, got passed over for the No. 3 guy after the team finally benches Mark Sanchez, and eventually gets cut. Rex Ryan and the New York Jets organization really pulled the wool over his eyes by making him--and the rest of us--believe that he was going to be a secret weapon.
That's okay...
Antonio Cromartie stepping into leadership role for Jets
When the New York Jets brought in Antonio Cromartie and teamed him up with Darrelle Revis, the Jets knew they had one of the fiercest cornerback tandems in the NFL. However, while it takes two to make a tandem, Cromartie was always the ‘other guy.’ It wasn’t that Cromartie was not good enough. He just so happened to play across from one of the premier defensive backs in the...

New York Jets OTA Summary
Mark Sanchez, Greg McElroy and Geno Smith during OTA’s
The New York Jets opened up OTA’s on Tuesday with a fury of question marks. The biggest question mark, as always with the Jets, is the play of their quarterback.

Rex Ryan: ‘I’m a hell of a lot better football coach than I’m given credit for’
Rex Ryan isn’t quite ready to go back to making bold claims about what his team is going to do in the upcoming year, but that doesn’t mean he isn’t the same old blowhard we are all used to. He’s been making all kinds of public comments as of late, like taking a shot at the Patriots signing Tim Tebow, and threatening to replace all his wide receivers, and even making a comment...
Job Security Issues for New York Jets
It’s the middle of June and most NFL teams are preparing for the season with mini-camps, and signing free agents, but not the Jets. The Jets are yet again making headlines for the wrong reasons.

Are Mark Sanchez and Geno Smith Beefing?
Anyone who acts like their direct competition is their friend is usually full of it. So, it should come as no surprise to anyone if Mark Sanchez and Geno Smith are becoming enemies this quickly into minicamp.
I mean, lets be real here; Sanchez and Smith are in an actual competition for the starting job, so tensions could be running high. It’s not like the “competition”...
Sanchez, Smith battle for Jets' QB gig
Mark Sanchez and Geno Smith are locked in a tight quarterback competition, with neither one pulling away so far.

Jets QB Mark Sanchez Taking All First-Team Reps
We count four truly "open" quarterback competitions in four NFL cities this offseason: Philadelphia, New York (Jets), Buffalo and Jacksonville.

Mark Sanchez takes all the first-team reps at Jets minicamp
New York Jets quarterback Mark Sanchez became one of the NFL's laughing stocks during the 2012 season, but the fifth-year turnover machine is still the top signal caller on the Jets roster for the time being. Sanchez reportedly took all of the first-team reps during the first day of Jets minicamp, while rookie Geno Smith worked exclusively with the second team.
There was speculation...
New York Jets – Looking Beyond The QB
With the first round of Jets OTA’s in the books, the debate on who should be the starting QB come week 1 against Tampa Bay is really heating up.

Tom and Tim to be Best Friends?
Our friendship will be legendary T…
Last time Tim Tebow went to a team, the fake friendships began. Tebow and Jets QB Mark Sanchez were never really friends, and Sanchez obviously never wanted Tebow on his team. Now Tebow is off to destroy the Pats, and everyone is wondering what kind of relationship Brady and Tebow will have? I’m sure Tom Terrific will welcome Timmy T with open...
Mark Sanchez Calls Jets’ Quarterback Competition ‘Awesome Situation,’ Likely to Start Week 1
Mark Sanchez has some competition for the Jets’ starting quarterback job yet again this offseason, but this time he seems pretty stoked about it.
The Tim Tebow experiment backfired miserably on both Sanchez and the Jets in 2012, but the competition with rookie Geno Smith appears to be having a positive effect on Sanchez.
“I’m having a great time,” Sanchez said in an interview...

Geno Smith reportedly hasn’t blown anyone away so far
According to Rich Cimini of ESPNNewYork.com, the New York Jets haven’t been very impressed with rookie quarterback Geno Smith so far this spring.
Listen to Rex Ryan, and you come away with the impression he’d rather crochet a sweater than start Mark Sanchez at quarterback. Ryan’s tone has been, um, less than enthusiastic. But guess what? He might have little choice. Judging...

Though he's no longer a member of Gang Green, Keller still has a pretty good pulse of his former...
