Looks like Chad may just make it back to help the Jets salvage the season. Here's the read on "The REAL Feed": Pennington active as third QB on Sunday The Sports Network: NFL (15.10.2003 13:52) Here's what I uncovered in the way of local talk from "the Gridiron Newsstand": http://www.app.com/nfl/jets/story/0,21403,831167,00.html; http://www.ctnow.com/sports/football/jets/ny-jnotes143494959oct14,1,3036 593.story?coll=ny-jets-print. The rest of the articles I found were basically just retreads of the AP report.

Well, there's a real "jetstream" of news coming out right now on the Jets... Near the top of "The REAL Feed" is this about Chrebet: Jets WR Chrebet out with back injury NFL.com (17.10.2003 21:04) Jets receiver Wayne Chrebet will not play against the Houston Texans because of a sore back. Bump up Moss, boyz,... and Conway for that matter, especially given these recent reports coming out of "the Gridiron Newsstand": http://www.nydailynews.com/sports/football/story/127546p-114111c.html; http://www.nypost.com/sports/jets/41432.htm. And, the news on "the Newsstand" about Pennington is getting hot. These reports contend that he could be back as early as NEXT WEEK: http://www.nydailynews.com/sports/football/story/127563p-114130c.html; http://www.nytimes.com/2003/10/17/sports/football/17JETS.html.

Jets' Pennington to play but not start vs. Eagles NFL.com (20.10.2003 15:14) Chad Pennington will make his return to the New York Jets on Sunday, Oct. 27, although not as the starter. |
| Can someone close up in NY area confirm that Pennington will start NEXT week? Is this definitely Testaverde's last start? I know Pennington is supposed to get action this week. Is he just 'testing' himself and arm or he is already to go?

I've heard that Vinnie will start, but we can expect to see Pennington in the first half. Herm may be trying to confuse an opposing D by playing it close to the chest, but he's getting heat for not starting Chad from the local fans. What I think is that he's waiting to see how Chad does when he comes back, how fast he's back in the game. Meanwhile, I grabbed Pennington for my bench weeks ago, and I grabbed Santana Moss in two leagues where people had given up on him. I think I wouldn't get crazy about Jets QBs until next week, when we see how Chad plays. But I'm holding on to him. He'll probably go crazy as soon as he can, and we keep hearing that Vinnie is a great QB coach. Like Frerotte in the tundra. I respect those guys. And Vinnie will help Chad, as usual. Next week, Pennington.
