I like it when you have rational posts with the word "IF". I know you understand where Zach is. I know you also understand why some of us think he is not the guy. There are definitely 3-4 passes a game that could give over 200 yards passing or 3-4 turnovers. These LB's and CB's are dropping many INT's. Its a game of inches for sure. None of us know where he will be, but we all hope he will be great.
Your right, we don't know! Zach may not turn out to be our guy but the one thing we must give him is he's not standing in the teams' way of winning so far! Now he needs to truly step up and lead this team with our BEST OFFENSIVE WEAPON AND TWO BEST OFFENSIVE LINEMAN INJURED FOR THE ENTIRE YEAR! Let's see what he can do now. This team still has more than enough weapons to compete, but we don't have our security blankets anymore. Breece and AVT were our security blankets. This hurts bad but its football and things like this happen.
Seems to happen more to the Jets than anyone else!!!
Zach now has to step up and make it happen. Read the defenses more quickly, anticipate where his weapons will be and be alot more accurate, make things happen when there not necessarily there. You know, what J. Allen and Mahomes is doing now and what A. Rodgers, T. Brady and P. Manning used to do. Is this asking ALOT of him now, of course it is but he's going to have to do it if this team still wants to win. The Jets still have a defense and special teams to be reckoned with, but they will wear down if the offense drops the ball now. The oline and running game isn't the same and Zach and the WRs/TEs have to pick up the slack.
