Our season is over before it even begun!

Sorry to be the negative Nancy here but I’m a realist at the same time. Zach probably won’t play until week 6, because they’ll want to play it safe. Hell, he may even need to wait till then but by then our season will already be over. If we win one game with Flacco these 4-6 games I’ll be surprised!

Zach may not have done that much better but I seriously doubt that. Even if he’s not our guy and we’ll be moving on from him in another two years, we need to see it to know it for a fact. This injury bug thing with Zach Wilson, IS BECOMING A PROBLEM FOR ME. I will admit that.

I still have the upmost confidence in that he is our guy but I (we) still need to see it. If this injury bullshit continues with him (much like it did every year with Darnold) I will be changing my thought process with Zach. Last point, it will be ALOT more satisfying seeing us lose with Zach this year than Flacco.

We need to see what this kid can do because he’s the key to whether or not we have a future of success. ANY QB FOR ANY TEAM IS!!!

After watching the guy we passed on for Darnold which I was happy with at the time just shred the SB champs I realized Zach is not even close to the athlete let alone QB as Allen. Zach has been injured at every level of his career. Just enjoy the season. We have so many good things to watch. Please don't let me be the positivity of this forum. It makes me want to throw up a little.

Not too many QB’s are the same level as Allen. Wilson doesn’t need to be him. He just needs to be good enough to get this team into the endzone and win ball games. I don’t care about the ability of a QB to bulldoze a defender. Allen’s going to get hurt sooner or later playing like that.

If we picked Allen, he probably would've sucked for us. Maybe it wasn't the prospect but the team's ruining of him.

He is definitely going to get hurt. I hate him now and wouldn't lose sleep if someone trucked him.

Fant back to LT. Thats an upgrade. Max Mitchell will get valuable reps. Use a TE to help if needed. I would rather watch Fant at LT and then watch Mitchell grow at RT. I still think the OL is better than last year. Tomlinson will be huge for OL. Mitchell is unknown and could be the weak link or he could be just fine. It will be fun to either see the team come together or also entertaining to watch the dumpster fire. Jets are always entertaining.

Max Mitchell was a 4th Rd. pick from a mid-sized or small program. His pass protection is in the 21st percentile.
Did we not pay up to whatever we did since 1969?

You get where I’m coming from! Any young QB for any team, especially ones that are showing some potential are the key to the teams success. Without them playing the team just isn’t the same. Unless your talking about a legendary defensive team like pick any from back in the day! That Ravens team that carried Flacco to a SB victory is a prime example of it!

Also this team probably isn’t good enough yet to survive without Zach for 4-6 games, hold their own and carry Flacco to 3-4 wins. Their probably to young for that also. This is why Zach was SO important here! The kid has true potential (not Josh Allen type potential) but potential nonetheless and seeing what this team can do all year with him is key.

THE KEY ACTUALLY!!!

A little bit. Now if they start 0-3 and the starters look like they did in preseason I will be done with all the excuses and I will be looking to burn the place down.

There’s too much season in front of the Jets to make any determination about what’s going to happen. Adversity is a bitch, but it’s life in the NFL. Good teams can overcome minor setbacks. That’s all this is.

Wilson’s gonna miss three games in all likelihood. I’m not freaking out about it.

Problem is the Jets are not a good team and haven’t been in a long time.

Here’s what I want everybody to understand, or this is my opinion and it may only be mine. With Vinny T, he still had ALOT of talent left in him that I just don’t see Flacco having. Plus that Jets team was playoff ready and primetime and the QB he replaced was garbage with absolutely no potential. If I remember correctly it was Glenn Foley, wasn’t it? If that’s the case or whomever it was the Jets had no chance with him but they were ready to win right then and there. So playing Vinny T made all the sense in the world.

This team is totally different. Zach has potential and talent that Foley or whomever didn’t. Plus this team is primarily young and growing and may not have been a playoff team this year anyway, even with Zach Wilson. But the key to it is they’re young and hungry and if Zach is the guy, he is the entire key or could or should be the guy to bringing the team together. Football teams are primarily build around QBs and there just is no getting around that.

Zach Wilson has the potential and talent that we need and we’re looking for to be at least a second tier quarterback, if not a first. No he may not be a first tier guy like a Mahomes, J. Allen, Rogers, Herbert, Burrow, Rodgers, L. Jackson, D. Watson and Brady but he definitely has the talent and potential to be a second tier guy like a Carr, R. Wilson, Prescott, Stafford and K. Murray. If Zach isn’t first or second tier then we to find ASAP!

Zach in my opinion just has to stay healthy enough to learn and grasp the game. That’s his main problem! I think he mentally can pick the game up. He studies and puts in the work hard enough. He will make mistakes regardless but will he learn from them is the question? I think he will. He seems smart enough to do so. To me, it’s all about now can he stay on the field enough to put it all together. If he can’t get that under control that will be a major problem.

Availability is the best ability!!!

I personally am very ok with our current situation. Get Fant back to LT where he belongs, get Mitchel his couple games to get his feet wet at RT where he played most of his college career. If MM turns out to be a decent RT and the line Gels nicely, they are hitting their stride in game 4 when our QB gets back on the field. I am very far from those that have thrown in the towel on our young QB. He has a lot of promise and potential and I am willing to see that play out. If Wilson and Mitchell end up being good, our high priority next year could be left tackle again or just re-sign Fant. Not a horrible position to be in IMO.
