Touchdown There

So there have been some conversations between the Jets and the Bears. No one thinks the Jets asked the Bears what they want for Cutler?

Brandon Marshall Signs with Giants (5 Viewers)

When a WR can't get open against man coverage it won't matter.
Decker was actually decent last year, but somehow the OC was only able to target him 113 times. That is just plain awful game planning. The O needed a new coordinator and new pieces. Good start.

Too bad the draft isn't still in New York. That would've made for some high drama and a lot of booing.

I assume this means Cutler is staying? Or is that reading too much into it?

If the Jets want a Franchise QB they wouldn't answer the phone if a team called who would want their guy

If he is cheap, I would love to see him on the Panthers for a season or 2. But he aint going to be cheap

might fit well in carolina.
how many people really believe the jets are going into the season with geno as their qb?
I would as well and I'd also take Cleveland over the Jets-due in large part to McCown and lack of comp for targets.
But I do consider Buffalo, Tennessee as worse. I also view Seattle as worse. Plenty of other teams I view about the same as Jets. So a poor landing spot but could have been worse or as bad in a lot of other spots.
No matter what anyone who owned Marshall had to know things were going to get worse than Cutler throwing to him in a pass first offense on a team that is usually trailing. The good news? He should still be better than he was last season.

Is the trade for WR Brandon Marshall a precursor to a trade by the Jets for QB Jay Cutler?

since it is so depressing in here and this seems to be a down crowd. does anyone think this is the type of elite wr that geno needed? geno stinks but good players make bad players better. marshall is more physical than decker is a supreme route runner and is still a play maker. he had bad ankles and a punctured lung and a bad QB situation just like any work place animosity effects the result and cutler did not get along with the coaching staff. if we are talking value in the big picture does it really take such a hit. cutlers marginal success was because of marshall for most year now maybe marshall can help geno out. im not a marshall owner im just a jets fan.

I certainly hope so. John Fox has no use for Cutler, he's a low scoring, lets play D kinda coach. That would certainly save the day.I hope they actually know something:

You in one sentence about fox said exactly why not being in chicago and going anywere else including nyj helps marshall fantasy wise.I certainly hope so.

Fake news:Jets trade a 2016 5th round pick for Chad Henne and invite Brian Hartline for a visit as they try to recapture the glory of the 2010 Dolphins.

It's good that he is away from Fox but this is the worst landing spot for FF owners of Marshall. Geno Stinks and he goes against Belicheck twice. IF Revis is there, look for nothing out of Marshall vs NE.You in one sentence about fox said exactly why not being in chicago and going anywere else including nyj helps marshall fantasy wise.I certainly hope so.

If the Jets were interested in Cutler, why wouldn't they have just discussed adding him in the Marshall deal? Why would two teams making a trade today be a precursor to the same two teams making another trade?I certainly hope so. John Fox has no use for Cutler, he's a low scoring, lets play D kinda coach.

Now is a good time to buy Harvin at a discount. I highly doubt he stays in NY at that salary and he won't restructure to stay there. The deadline for them to make a move is March 19 based on draft pick compensation. Anywhere he signs as a FA will be an upgrade over what he has now and NE would be amazing for him.

This the Bears would have probably given the Jets Marshall to take Cutler. No one is trading for him most likely cut IMOIf the Jets were interested in Cutler, why wouldn't they have just discussed adding him in the Marshall deal?

I don't think for a New York Minute that the Jets acquired Marshall to pair up with Smith.
They're gunning for a QB next.

Why are people assuming the Titans don't work a deal if there's one to be had?
First thought we had here. Seems they like to follow each other.

maybe BM realizes some things are more important than football, while still giving his best effort.NY provides a nice outlet.
Probably. But if there's a sweet deal on the table like they're talking about with Washington, they will probably drop down.

Oh I know they'll be enough booing, I just meant with Jets fans thinking their taking Mariota at 6 and someone like the Eagles trading to 5 and grabbing him right before their pick. Radio City might have burned to the ground.

Aaron Leming, who broke the story on the Chicago Bears trading Brandon Marshall to the New York Jets, discusses how the mercurial receiver found his way out of the Windy City.
Over the course of a rough 2014 season and in the midst of an apparent house cleaning, former Chicago Bears wide receiver Brandon Marshall is now on his way to the New York Jets.
Early this morning, I received word from two separate sources that Marshall was on his way to the Jets and they would receive a late-round pick for compensation. The Bears will save roughly $4 million in cap space but why cut a top receiver in the league and create another large hole on the roster, all for a fifth-round pick?
A source informed me last Tuesday that the team had informed Marshall’s agent they were going to shop him on the trade market but they were not confident they could receive a 2015 draft pick. Rest assured, general manager Ryan Pace got the best value he could for the 31-year-old wide receiver, as there were at least four other teams with reported interest.
Over the course of this past year, Marshall’s act wore thin on not only the coaching staff and other players but he also had the disapproval of the front office, including Georg McCaskey. I was told it started with his appearances on Showtime’s “Inside The NFL” and began to spiral out of control after the 40-minute press conference Marshall held against the wishes of the organization.
There were also multiple reports of a “falling out” between quarterback Jay Cutlerand Marshall, and cryptic tweets from teammates like Kyle Long. From the hire of offensive coordinator Adam Gase to now, Marshall was reported as rubbing the new regime the wrong way.
There were questions of where his priorities really were with weekly trips to New York each Tuesday during the season, down to his reported selfishness in the locker room.
This move was not made due to a dip in production or questions of diminishing skills. This was simply a leadership move and from what I’m told, the Bears may not be done. Cutler and running back Matt Forte are not safe and could provide large salary-cap relief through trades.

Much like you can't brew a real beer without hops, you can't brew a real NFL offense without a quarterback.
