Trevor Siemian a Jet

Joey from GlenCove : 9/26/2023 1:11 pm
Jets are planning to add to their QB room: Veteran QB Trevor Siemian is signing with the Jets, pending a physical, per sources.

Per schefter
Wow. He's a "veteran"  
Matt M. : 9/26/2023 1:14 pm : link
For there sake, I hope this is only the first of multiple moves.
So, they essentially hung up on Wentz  
Matt M. : 9/26/2023 1:15 pm : link
but signed Siemian?
geez!

black balled? Maybe the league execs just know he cannot play. Most players write the end of their own story.

Blackballed for what? I think the Jets are just stubborn and stupid at this point. Even if they didn't want to move on from Wilson immediately after Rodgers going down, not bringing in a guy like Wentz as insurance was an egregious mistake. They essentially have no backup and Siemian offers them little more than their current backup and no real challenge or upgrade to Wilson.
Can’t say that feels very inspired

Kudos to them for trying something, I guess.
Too bad we couldn't give them Tyrod Taylor

The Jets are frauds. The o-line is awful.
Rogers was not going to last behind that
line and the Jets with Rogers were not going to
beat teams like the Chiefs or Steelers with a good
pass rush
LOL.

Agreed. Wentz is John Elway compared to Siemian.

Jets are better off right now exclusively running the Wildcat than playing Wilson.

Look, give the Jets credit. They recognized the mistake they made with Wilson and got back in the market for a QB solution. And found a very good one in Rodgers.

Unfortunately for them, they have a defense that could be championship level, but an offense that is offsets that by being defunct.
Way better than Wilson

I wouldn’t take Wilson over Tyrod Taylor.

Plenty of chatter that Wentz's teammates pretty much hated him in every locker room he was a part of. Add that to his play falling off a cliff, not surprised he can't get another job, even with a desperate team

He's 31 and has been in the league since 2015. He's an NFL "veteran" by anyone's definition.

I think Rodgers was the right move. Keeping Wilson at that point probably was not. Even if he redeemed himself, what was the point if Rodgers was expected to play 2-3 more years?

His play fell off a cliff when he contracted COVID and started a game less than a week later with no practice time.
what a horrible signing. Only the Jets

That defense will be pounding down the HC's door to make a change.
No need to tank for Trevor, Jets!

Zach Wilson getting better is their best shot at winning  
widmerseyebrow : 9/26/2023 5:17 pm : link
That's not the fun thing to say right now, but plenty of QBs in this league have stunk right up until the light turns on for them. Obviously there's no guarantee the light will ever go on for Wilson, but this idea that there's some good unemployed QB out there ready to suit up and win a Super Bowl is beyond stupid.
Should have called

TJ : 9/26/2023 6:18 pm : link
Their best hope is that Wilson can be an adequate starter. But when things get too ugly or when Wilson gets injured, they need a backup who has taken meaningful nfl snaps.
Seimian has started 30 nfl games. He should be able to prevent the team from descending into chaos for a couple games when needed. And I'm guessing he's cheap.
They’re as bad with QBs

The major mistake Douglas made,considering they went all in at every other position,was not securing a true backup QB.They let Mike White walk & decided Wilson would be the #2.Now,rather than bringing in a vet with real experience,he brings in a backup QB that couldn't win the backup job in Cincy! Now the season's young and they still could pursue a QB on a team that goes completely south(Vikings-Cousins?),but as of now,putting all your eggs in Zac Wilson's basket is like buying a ticket for the Titanic.Douglas is putting his & Saleh's jobs on the line & in 2024,Hackett could wind up being HC!

I have no idea where this rumor started that Ryan reached out to the Jets and they turned him down but Ryan said himself that he has no interest in the Jets or any other team at this point. He’s enjoying life in the booth

White is a nothing- zero upside. The mistake was in keeping Saleh, who is not a good HC and then pairing him with Hackett, a clown, and expecting results. Rodgers was a Hail Mary.
This feels like

Joe Douglas knows a bad season is coming and he is setting up Saleh to be the fall guy, now i dont think Saleh is some great coach but its kind of ridiculous how Douglas gets zerk blame...He hasnt had a winning season in 4 years and he never gets heat...

I don't understand how Wentz isn't a Jet by now. Maybe I could understand giving Wilson one week but Wentz should have been signed.

I think you are right and they are punting on the season. It's crazy the pass Douglas has gotten.

Wentz may have been bad last year and maybe had locker room issues. But the guy had 27 tds and 7 ints in 2021. It's nuts hes not a Jet by now.
