Jets quarterback Geno Smith was given the start Saturday against the Giants. He was afforded a chance to prove he should be the starting quarterback for Rex Ryan Week 1.
Although he certainly didn't show it on the field, due to Mark Sanchez's injury, Smith possibly did take one step closer to earning the Week 1 job. That said, he was awful Saturday with three interceptions.
Smith finished 16 of 30 for 199 yards with one touchdown pass and the three picks for a QB rating of 45.7. Smith found Ben Obomanu for a 22-yard TD pass in the first quarter, but did little after that. He didn't run with the ball and managed not to fumble.
