What did Jets QB Zach Wilson do wrong

Zach Wilson didn't do anything wrong. Outside of being a Rookie. And having a chance to learn from his mistakes.

What did Peyton Manning do wrong as a Rookie? A lot.

Kick the FG and go up by 7 points was a no brainer; instead of putting a Rookie QB in position to HAVE TO EXECUTE.

Yeah yeah. Coach Saleh wanted to go for the win but imo. It was a bad decision. Kick the FG and we're not having this discussion today.

in retrospect, and hindsight being 20/20, they did score and convert the 2 point conversion, so in theory...they still win, "and" we give them a shorter field to do it.

i guess that it could be argued that if we do go up by 7, we can play 100% prevent, but that just makes TB12's job even easier.

100% behind Saleh's call to go for it - with better talent the same decisions will have better results.

0% behind what came after

Apples to apples
Normal circumstances he kicks the FG
Our season so far he (coach) figures ah WTF go for it see what happens
No real pressure
I like the game Zach played up until the fucked up play
whatever
What boggles my mind was the Bengals decision to not kick the FG until they were forced to
They went twice didn’t make it except for the refs
If that game went into OT and they lost because no FG attempts they’d be calling to fire his ass (Zac Taylor) on the spot
And another way to spell Zac!!!!

it makes complete sense even if we don't get it...they have score a TD and it puts them 97 yards away.

19/33, 234 passing yards, 1 TD/0 INTs, QB Rating of 89.7 was a very electric performance for a Rookie QB (only 1 sack) and Zach Wilson had his team in position to beat Tom Brady and his Buccaneers while up 14.

Oh yeah. As a Rookie he's already gone 4 consecutive games without an INT.

Please stop trying to mock me with your sarcastic comments like "electric run" when you sat here and supported your BUST Sam Darnold for 3 freaking years.

Sam Darnold has been in the league for 4 years now and has never ONCE played 4 consecutive games without an INT. Zach Wilson already has. And as a Rookie too.

Zach Wilson has gone 9 consecutive games without throwing multiple INTs as only a Rookie but Sam Darnold? He's NEVER gone 9 consecutive games without multiple INTs and he's now in his 4th year!


Please stop trying to mock me for my Zach Wilson excitment when you've already made a fool of yourself over your TURNOVER MACHINE QB SAM BUST DARNOLD.

Sam Darnold? 4th year? 7 TD/12 INTs and 70.2 QB Rating and as a 4th year veteran?!? And 8 fumbles?

um. Zach Wilson (who I believe in) is having a better ROOKIE SEASON than your boy Sam Darnold is having as a 4th year QB 😂😅

Deleted my post to save the forum the agony of listening to you and I argue. Just don't respond to any post I make.

Zach Wilson has quietly improved over the past month. However, he still has a lot of work to do. Qne of the things he needs to stop doing is telegraphing the qb draw. That said, it wasn't the best call on 4th and 2.

A rookie QB, a rookie head coach and this is the worst to happen? I can deal with it. It's not like Zach stripped down on the sidelines and quit the team:icu:

I think Zach made a bad call mainly because he was given an option. I also think that Bart Scott has an issue with him for some reason. I think Zach wanted to atone for the the way the Jets got lucky vs the Titans. He had a chance late to put the game away and missed a wide open short pass I think to a TE that would have scored a TD.

i think you're correct on Bart and a perceived beef with Zach.

Where are the criticisms on Mims not being able to crack the line up?
where are the criticisms on Becton for turning an 8 week injury into a season long injury?
The list is long as to which he can share his vitriol, but he manages to save it for #2...at the same time, any leniencies he grants towards others are not afforded to Zach.

i love his X's and O's dissection...he is very good. But i do not like his commentary when he applies motives; very picky & very choosey.

Bart Scott is a talking tool and he should not criticize any Jets players for their play. Bart Scott was absolutely atrocious during his last two years in 2011 and 2012.

An 11 year career? Only 1 Pro Bowl and 1 2nd team All-Pro (both 2006) but yet he talks as if he were some type of HOF great or something? Fk him.

And during his 1st 3 years in Baltimore he combined for 0 starts. He's the last one who has the right to criticize young Rookies when his ass wasn't even good enough to earn playing time, until his 4th year.

I personally can not stand him.
Oh for the love of God man . Zach Wilson was the 2nd pick in the entire draft . Bart Scott was an I drafted free agent. Scott has earned the right to criticize any player . He overcame the odds and had a solid NFL career .
Quit blowing Zach Wilson in public and get a frigging room

there are more to their circumstances then not being able to crack the line up

getting injured, having surgery then physically recovering is one thing but there is a mental state that goes along with it especially for man that big he needs to trust that his surgically repaired knee will do the job that he needs it to be... talking about football shape he was getting back into game shape but there was that bit of uncertainty in his plants and cuts... the coaches saw that, and decided to hold him out not like they needed him on the field they want him for the long term not to throw him back when he clearly wasn't ready...

as for Mims there are so many issues, but main one is he needs to put more focus on the little tasks in practice and be more consistent when he improves he will get his shot... But they believe he will need a full off season complete tear down of his skills and rebuild his body of work then hope with his athleticism and functional play strength would be an asset to the already young receiving core...

Gotta tell you that it’s because of the information you provide that allows me to adjust how I scout prospects for this Jet team .
It’s been a long time coming but I’m so happy that this team is finally drafting for fit instead of the BPA crap which caused us to take players we didn’t need simply because they were the highest rated player on the board .
If the player doesn’t fit what we do why take him and make a bust .

Bart Scott not only has a problem with Wilson but Joe Burrow as well for pouring it on his beloved Ravens and being smug about it in a post game press conference. In this instance, I believe on ESPN's Get up, Scott went as far as to predict that the Ravens should/will purposely injure Burrow. Scott has a voice that is heard across the country by young kids playing the game and he needs a filter because that is crossing the line between being controversial and dangerous. After hearing that rant I lost all respect.

just simply look at our roster not at the beginning of the season but now
roster moves
position changes (there was two)
Jason Pinnock CB to SAF
Javin Smith LB to DB aka SAF

not to mention the two we drafted SAF to LB

as much you learn, I hope there is enough here to figure out or discuss how they may go in free agency and the draft...
