It is evident to anyone who kept up with this past NFL season that the Jets just never seemed to be ready for a successful season. Even before the season, the media seemed more fascinated by the backup quarterback than the actual play of the starter. Day in and day out, the media poured in Jets Training Camp to find out whatever they could about Tim Tebow.
The season is over half over and Tim Tebow is still the talk of the media. The Jets are 3-6 and Tebow hasn’t made a start. Some experts and analysts at the beginning of the season said Tebow would beat out Mark Sanchez in the preseason and be the starting quarterback. That didn’t happen. Some thought Tebow would overtake Sanchez by midseason. That didn’t happen either.
During the preseason I was one of the many people wondering which veteran wide receiver would be the best fit and most influential player for their respective team. Gambling on a veteran can be risky, but sometimes this risk pays off huge dividends.
After a couple of fights in training camp, and the hysteria that is Tim Tebow, the Jets2012 season is going to be a complicated one to explain. In hindsight, we don’t know what to expect, but if the offseason fights and the debate of a “quarterback controversy” continue, then the team may could be on a collision course of disaster.
The Jets didn't have too many picks early in this year's draft, but are hoping they struck gold in the sixth round. That's where New York selected running back Terrance Ganaway with the 202 overall pick. That's not the only Ganaway that would find his way on to the roster this offseason as the Jets signed receiver DaMarcus Ganaway to a reserve/future contract.
