What should we name the Jets' version of 'Suck for Luck'?
The New York Jets are embarking on what will surely be a long and dreadful 2017 season with the hope of securing a top draft pick next spring to turn their franchise around.

With USC's Sam Darnold, UCLA's Josh Rosen, and Louisville's Lamar Jackson projected to be the prized quarterback prospects of the 2018 draft, the Jets need a "Suck for Luck"-type of slogan to help make the upcoming season more entertaining and hopeful.
Here are some options:
Scam for Sam
Alliteration. Rhymes. Easy to comprehend. This one is probably the early leader.
Fold for Darnold
Though it's pretty awkward to pronounce, it still rhymes and "fold" is a slightly better description than "scam" for the Jets' season.
Hosin' for Rosen
For anyone who isn't also a Canadian hockey fan: a hoser is a person who loses a pond-hockey game and has to flood (or hose) the ice as punishment. So "Hosin'" means losing in Canadian. Perfect rhyme.
Wash for Josh
As in, this season will certainly be a wash.
No Action for Jackson
This could be confused as some sort of abstinence pledge, but if you're expecting much action from the Jets on the field this season, you'll be sorely disappointed.
Lose for Lamar
Lamar is a hard name to find a rhyme for in this context, so we stuck with alliteration and went with a more direct description for what will happen.
