Why it's time to part ways with Geno Smith

After a brutal loss to the Broncos, the Jets improved to 1-5. Geno Smith looked 100% like that Geno Smith we hate. He showed some signs of brilliancy and gave Ryan Quigley his usual Sunday load.

Geno is immature, and that's putting it lightly. He has yet to develop the right skills and attitude to compete in the NFL, and week after week he has you wondering why he's your QB.

Geno shows a lack of urgency in the pocket, he'd rather wait for the pocket to collapse, than for him to use his legs. I've never seen a QB so inaccurate and so clueless, when it comes to the basics.

Of course, Smith has a lack of skilled players around him, but the thing is, Geno is not a skilled player and never will be. That's why it's time to look past this mistake and failure, and move on. Everyone makes mistakes, and John Idzik and co. made a huge one in believing that Geno Smith could carry an NFL workload.
