Other QB options!

[TebowCan'tThrow]

Lol, FIGURES YOU’D say that TCT! I was expecting and waiting on it. Here’s my response from this point on for the rest of the year and hopefully Zach doesn’t let the team and us down.

We will all miss A-Rod to the highest extent but this is football and shit happens. So we have no choice but to move on. This team is still good enough to make the playoffs at least. So this is my best and only response from this point on! We roll with Zach and let the chips fall where they may. In Zach we have no choice but to trust!

It's all in good fun. You threw that softball out there for me. I think we all would be extremely happy if Zach becomes successful. His attitude has changed and I think this is his last chance. The good thing is we will know for sure what we have if he plays the rest of the season. I think Hackett is the key to his success and Rodgers being in his ear. I was excited to see Rodgers and really loved watching him embrace this team, but I'm still just as excited with no expectations to see Zach. Like I said above this will be a hell of a story if he turns his career around.

The problem is, we didn't prepare for this situation and now there is really no option that can jump in here and make us contenders.

The same way the ordained Brown the starting LT while he was hurt and ZERO time post injury, is the same way they ordained Zach QB #2 with ZERO competition. No matter what he did, he was always going to be QB #2 and they did everything to coddle him and keep his confidence up.

Now for better or worse, we have to roll with the hand we've been dealt. We don't have a veteran that can step in, we have hope & prayers that Hackett (and Rodgers whispering in his ear), is enough to fix Zach and get him playing up to potential at the drop of a dime.

This is a short week, so no one should be sleeping on the coaching staff. Put a plan together to help Zach, because we can't go in with what we did against the Bills (the Cowboys will destroy us if we can't make an attempt to keep that defense honest).

We won with the running game last year (until Breece went down). Hopefully we can keep them all healthy and they can help soften up that defense enough for Zach to build some confidence and take the shots he needs to take.

Tortured Jets fan, but I'm rooting every week for a damn win anyway!!! LET'S GO JETS!

Here's my philosophy or thoughts or whatever you want to call it, everything happens for a reason and some things just aren't meant to be. Call it the Universe or God or the bad luck that seems to kill us every year! For whatever reason this is where we are and of course none of us can explain it! Maybe it was just meant for us to see Zach again this year and not Aaron Rodgers.

Yes, we all know that with A-Rod, the Jets would have blown the Bills out with the way that defense played. I'm also 100 percent sure that the way the Jets looked, with Aaron Rodgers, the Jets are a Super Bowl caliber winning team. Now as much as it hurts like hell that we don't have Aaron anymore, I guess it just wasn't meant for him to play for us this year. MAYBE NOT AT ALL, LIKE EVER!

We have to move on now, we have no choice. The team just can't quit, they have to keep fighting together and as fans we have to or should keep rooting for them. As frustrating as that can be at times. So here we again with Zach and for whatever reason this is where were supposed to me. Of course, I don't know if this is for the good or bad, but we'll soon find out!

Hopefully Zach has learned what he needed from Aaron Rodgers and hopefully A-Rod continues to stay in his ear and help him. Also, hopefully Hackett is the OC he needs to make him better. He looked ALOT more confident and half-way competent out there on Monday night. So maybe he can be what we need. Be the game manager and grow from there, if possible. Only time will tell!

Gotta love this guy! Rich Eisen and Greeny are the best!

as much as I hate saying this Zach Wilson is the new starter for this season. Tim Boyle is the backup but Aaron Rodgers is NOT dead, he will be in Wilson's ear as will Tim.

I do not see them signing a quarterback to the practice squad as of right now, maybe after Dallas they may dabble to sign someone. It will be shock to a lot of you guys on one of the three they are eyeing.

everyone thinks Joe Flacco but this is not LaFleur show.

but these are the three that Hackett may want to bring in:

Nick Foles
Trace McSorley
and my favorite
Jake Fromm

but from my understanding on what this offense is there is one quarterback that kind of fits well is Jake Luton. a long shot would be returning a former Jet in John Wolford

"Jake From n" State farm for insurance....I will take Foles lol

To me, the most likely option is a veteran backup to slide behind Wilson. I think the Jets need to use this year to see what he is with a stacked roster. This will determine whether they give the fifth year option to him or not. But don't waste draft capital. Sign someone like Henne in case Wilson goes belly up, but Zach gets the chance to build on what he has done this offseason.

With how Rodgers has been since he came here, I refuse to believe he will allow this to be his swan song. He comes back next season, the team fills its few remaining holes, and it is loaded for 2024.

 

[beresford]

It is reported that any signee will be told that Zach is the starter. That could come back to bite them.

'OMG Zach sucks, get your helmet quick'.

"Nope, Zach is the starter'.

Gotta roll with what you have first, see what you got. If Zach plays well against Dallas they give him a shot and bring in a warm body for 3rd string.
If he craps the bed I see them going the route G suggested.

 

[LRJets]

They're not going out for "the best backup QB" they're focusing on "scheme familiar" guys that they have already scouted that are also Not Tim Boyle.

 

[Seaver41]

the most important thing that they must account for now is somebody capable if Zach gets hurt. Can't say Boyle is even that.

The rest of the season with sack

 

[TebowCan'tThrow]

David F…ing Mills

He does have better stats and played more games than Zach with worse teams. Maybe for a 6th if Texans want to trade.

 

[jets82]

Media and radio stations keep talking about the Jets going after Kirk Cousins. Who knows at this point! I’d say give the kids a chance, at least 3-4 games and if he shits the bed, do what you gotta do!

Hell NO. Cousins is not a winner. All he will do is make this team an average team. He is better than Zach at this point, but with zero upside. He shrinks in primetime games so that would be 5 losses right there. He won't take them over the top. Don't forget he is 1-4 in playoff games. Don't waste a draft pick on this guy. JD should be fired if he does this.

We agree yet again! I’m with you 1,000 percent on this one.

Apparently the Rams blocked us from signing Brett Rypien.
