Start a picket line.

But don’t start Geno Carr.

I've yet to see a QB better than O'Connell since he's been here.

Geno Smith proved today he's not up to it. Got the mobility, got the arm but, the mental aspect has been and, still is the issue. Mistake prone QB's shouldn't last long in this league and Smith has been around too long. 4 starts and it's getting worse Is the Kelly O too much to grasp and, is Kelly altering his play calling to play it safe? Anyway, back to the question I have no problem starting Pickett. Sad that the reasoning is it probably can't get any worse now that the season is as far as playoffs probably lost.

Yes.

Geno won't get better. This is what he is. Thrown the most INT since 22'.

Pickett sucked balls in preseason. Homeboy was lost against guys who are now Uber drivers.

It's nice to think that it couldn't be any worse, but as we've seen, it definitely can be worse.

Simplify the playbook, put that guy who started today on a system of short throws and RPOs, hope the O-line has found its feet, and run the ball.

Give O'Connell and his mustache a shot when he's back.

NOTE: O'Connell's not the answer either but he wouldn't be on pace for 29.75 picks this season (yes, I did the math).

All is not lost. Each week our chances of ruining a 1st round QB increase. :thumbsup:

Doesn't matter. This team is cursed.

Either it is, or the effect is exactly the same as what a curse would be. 3 QBs in a row come here and have by far the worst seasons of their career, right out of the gate. Post-Gannon drought is pretty long.

Carr was, and will always be, better than Geno. So keep Geno in & let Pete explain his scholarship every week & we can get a high pick

One of those touchdowns was cuz of Geno scrambling. Aiden is worse than Geno & I never wanted Geno

If Pickett comes in and doesn’t throw 3 picks. That will be an improvement.
