Rex Ryan: Geno Smith will remain starter
The Jets crowd chanted 'We want Vick!' for the first time this season on Sunday while watching Geno Smith's troubles against the Detroit Lions. It probably won't be the last time because Smith isn't coming out of the lineup any time soon.
'I'm confident in Geno. If Geno's healthy, then Geno Smith will start,' Rex Ryan said after the game. 'I'm not gonna replace him. I feel good about Geno, and again, I think he's gonna get it turned. He's a tough, resilient young man, and I think we're gonna win.'
Smith has made a lot of head-scratching decisions this season, but he's also showed real progress at times. He hasn't been playing with a stacked deck at receiver and Ryan's defense has had its share of problems.
'If it was just him making mistakes and all that type of stuff, then we might have a different solution there. But I don't believe it rests on one man,' Ryan said.
The Jets have played better than their 1-3 record indicates, but life could get worse before it gets better. The Jets face San Diego, Denver and New England over the next three weeks, with two of the games on the road.
