The article explores the historical significance of the San Diego State quarterback room in 2004, which included future NFL head coach Kevin O'Connell and two Jets coaches, Darren Mougey and Tanner Engstrand. Former coach Tom Craft highlights the unusual success of this group and recalls a pivotal moment when Engstrand, a junior college transfer and walk-on, showed resilience in a close game against Ohio State. The Jets are hopeful that the talents and experiences of Mougey and Engstrand will positively influence the team's direction moving forward.
It's really unusual that that group of quarterbacks, in that room at that time, are in such high places right now.
The Jets are counting on Mougey and Engstrand to help change the direction of the franchise.
Engstrand came off the bench for three plays in the third quarter, when the starter got the wind knocked out of him.
Craft remembers Mougey and Engstrand, both backups to O'Connell, as hard workers with an aptitude for learning.
