Bye-Bye-Bye, Chad. Hello, Hello, Kellen.
October 30th, 2007 by Corey GriffinThat’s right, I managed to fit in a Beatles and an N’Sync reference into a title about the QB change. I figured since I’m a day late, I had to spruce it up to grab people’s attention. Anywho, head coach Eric Mangini has named Kellen Clemens the starter for Sunday’s game against Washington (and the foreseeable future).
Well, Jets fans, you get what you’ve been asking for and now Clemens is going to start against an aggressive, hungry defense pissed off after being embarrassed by New England. Obviously, it was time, but this is just the signal of a lost season and it’ll be interesting to see how the veteran players react to Mangini’s concession.
Also, I’m stating this now to preface the start of the Clemens era. If, somehow, someway, the Jets turn around the season under Clemens and win 5 or 6 of their remaining
games, Jets fans are prohibited from saying the following sentence: “If we had started Kellen after the Baltimore game, we’d be in the playoffs!” It just doesn’t work that way. You can’t say how he would have performed in the prior games and circumstance. You’ve been warned, Jets fans. Oh, and also, if you’re gonna boo the kid, then just trade in your tickets for a Knicks game. That’s the only time booing is accepted from start to finish.
