I now have questions whether he is ever going to be an above average or better NFL QB, but I always expected him to struggle his rookie season even if he is destined to be an elite QB. The Matt Ryans, Ben Roethlisbergers, and Joe Flaccos of the world who make immediate impacts their rookie season are rare.
The one thing the Jets gotta worry about is that they are starting to get old at some key positions. Thomas Jones is going to be 32 next season and, as we saw with Corey Dillon, a RB can go for competiting for the rushing title one season and an average to mediocre RB the next in his early 30s. Faneca is old and showing signs of wearing down. Kris Jenkins is probably done. Shawn Ellis, their leading sacker and best d-lineman, is going to be 33 next season. So is Damien Woody. Sione Pouha, Marques Douglas, Bryan Thomas, and Marques Douglas are all on the wrong side of 30. They could or most likely will lose Brylon Edwards, Lito Sheppard, Kerry Rhodes, Tony Richardson, Larry Izzo, Jay Feeley, and Leon Washington after this season (although a few of those are not big losses at all). They may already be close to a rebuilding stage. It would be funny if they don't go anywhere next year either and 2011 becomes a rebuilding year after they spent so much to rebuild in 2008 and 2009.
