Examples of Zach Wilson pocket pressure & reaction breakdown


Recommended Posts

The way I’m looking at it is that it really can’t get any worse than the 30th best QB in the NFL lol. 
 
No, but joking aside, be excited. Wilson is an extremely entertaining pick if nothing else. There is a lot to like & as all other prospects, there are questions. You have to like the situation Wilson is coming into opposed to the situation Darnold walked into in 2018.
 
Joe Douglas > Mike Maccagnan by a long shot.
Robert Saleh seem to be the guy we’ve been looking for & LaFleur is a young innovative offensive mind bringing in a swab friendly system, a system that’s working really well right now & a system Zach Wilson is not only familiar with from concepts used at BYU, but he’s got the perfect skill set to compliment this system.
Corey Davis, Jamison Crowder, Denzel Mims, Keelan Cole & Is much better than the previous 3-4 years. 
Big boy Becton wasn’t on the line before Sam got here. Wilson will have the advantage of Becton year 2 & Wilson will be the center of a focused plan by JD to put the most talent possible around him.
 
Lots to like about Wilson’s chances compared to our previous attempt.
 

Sorry, I obviously was not clear. And re-reading my post I can see why! No, I have all the confidence in Wilson. I meant with everyone saying it’s a sure bet Jets take him, watch us take Mac Jones or Trey Lance or someone else! Before yesterday, my line to all my Jets fans was “watch the Jets take the TE with the #2 pick”! At least now we KNOW it will be a QB.

Corey Davis, Jamison Crowder, Denzel Mims, Keelan Cole & <insert WR draft pick> Is much better than the previous 3-4 years.

But we definitely need OL either the 23rd or 34th pick

In the first two rounds? No. Pass rush, receiver, and a back.

I'm never going to cry about drafting a pass-rusher, but I personally want all offense with the first 3 picks and our starting guards are simply at the very bottom of the league. And there a lot of really good IOL prospects in this draft. I guarantee you there will be a future 7-10 year starter on the offensive line sitting there at 23. We just have to find him and pick him.

Why? Pass rusher or touchdown scorer. The Jets need to reprioritize some things here. Pass rush and points with premium picks.

So has the last decade been lost on you? Protect the QB first and foremost. That gives the "weapons" time to run their route, creates rush lanes, and makes sure the D can't key in on run or pass. The D can go a second consecutive year without high picks that don't live up to expectations considering the last decade+ of DL and CB picks in the first.

If Zach Wilson’s ceiling is the 2020 Baker Mayfield (4,000 & 30 TDs) do you think that is a successful pick?

I see Baker Mayfield in his game and think thats the type of player we would be getting. Great player but not elite.

Fields will sit a year with San Fran then take the world by storm in 2022.

I see no comparison to Baker other than the swagger. 

Baker is shorter and much more of a rhythm passer than anything else. He does well in structure and off play action, just a totally different player.

Zach Wilson is far and away a better prospect than Baker Mayfield was.  

What Zach becomes is a very different question - but from a skill-set perspective, it's not really close.

appreciate that! let me know if you guys have any suggestions on the next few opponents to post some cut ups of. Mogglez named USC, thinking about doing Houston, I know that was a rough game for him. any more suggestions would be welcomed.

Excellent work PK. I'd suggest adding the much maligned coastal Carolina tape to the list. In my much less polished opinion I think it's a bit overused by the anti Zach side. Id love to see a break down of that game.

Think what could separate Baker & Wilson from immediate success is the polish and experience that Baker had coming in as a Senior. Baker took an elite Georgia defense to double OT in the playoffs. Let’s not forget that. Baker was ready to ball as soon as he got into the league.

2019 USC & 2020 Costal Carolina clips from Wilson under pressure coming later today when I get back from shopping at Walmart with the Misses. Think I’m going to convince her to let me grill a ton of food today lmao.

 

We got Nick Mangold’s 74 OG BBQ sauce and it’s absolutely delicious. Just came in from Amazon yesterday. If you guys enjoy good BBQ, you have to order some.

I agree. I think Wilson is going to struggle more than Baker had in his first year.  Baker had A LOT more talent and was a year older..

But I don't think that changes anything from the level of prospect Wilson is - his ceiling is just much higher than Bakers, probably floor too.  Wilson has all the tools to be a top 3 NFL QB.  Just a matter of if he can put it together.

I think people are defining Wilson's QB persona too much based on his slim frame and baby face teen looks.  It leads them to believe that he's gonna be timid and panicky under pressure.  He's certainly not a deer in the headlights waiting to get creamed...a la Jimmy Garoppolo.

What I see in these clips is a young college QB, that shows enough poise under pressure.  Makes enough good decisions.  And has the capacity to overcome whatever mistakes he may make as he gains experience.  

Thanks for these clips.  Looking forward to more of them.

no one is scoring touchdowns if we send out the same OL as last season. Don't care if Jerry Rice and Randy Moss line up on the outside. We need to draft two day 1 OL starters.

I think we have more than the #2, #23 & #34th picks.

We desperately need a CB

Take one with one of the 3rd rounders 

Id rather have a 3rd round WR or OL than CB.  Half assed CBs have nicknames like toast.  Plenty of 2nd or 3rd round OL have long, successful careers IMO

@Mogglezhere is USC 2019 for you.


[Game 3] 2019 VS USC

Wilson is not an all-world athlete, but on this first play, he shows impressive short area quickness & even a bit of fire at the end of the play.

So we have Wilson running the RPO here, receiver motions over, Zach makes his decision what he wants to do with this ball as soon as the coverage is tipped off. he keeps it himself and he makes #99 break dance with this juke #TWITCHY. He bounces outside once more to get around the block and it takes two defenders to drive Wilson out of bounds at the end. good job recognizing the coverage & having the athleticism he does have to make chicken salad out of chicken sh*t.

note: you can see at the end of the play, Wilson's not particularly happy with the way the USC DB shoved him & Wilson shoves right back. I like that fire. it's not a trait or talent... but I LIKE IT!

Here we have a first & 10 starting on the 40 yard line right after a quick 3 & out from USC. good field position & the perfect opportunity to make a strong early game statement with the game tied up. pressure crashes in straight up the middle. BYU's OL lets a free rusher in unblocked but he's too slow to get there because Wilson quickly identifies the mismatch with his TE up the seam & he fires an absolute beaut' back shoulder throw to set up a fresh set of downs. nice job by Zach understanding his best option and not hesitating in the midst of pressure. don't think about it. don't pull the pass down & back peddle. you know if you can wind up on the right side of the fence with your ball placement on this throw, you can complete this pass in time and he does.

I'm not sure who's responsible for the middle of the field but USC lapses in coverage & Wilson is all over it. #1 for USC creeps up from his LBer spot & blitzes Wilson off the left side but gets picked up by the RB, I believe when #1 rushed in, #10 was suppose to rotate coverage to account for the soft spot #1 left when he blitzed. 10 was playing way too close to the line and Wilson fires a strike over the middle. Nothing jaw dropping here but nice reaction skills and nice job processing & adjusting on the fly.

WOWZA! Wilson drops back, clean pocket, identifies the mismatch & a mismatch it is, the BYU WR outmuscles the press & gets a step or two in front of the DB, Wilson couldn't of air dropped the ball in any better than that. beautiful pitch & catch. Watch Wilson's lower body as he throws this. tight form & disciplined mechanics make this throw what it is!!

Wilson rolls out right and fires a laser across his body towards the sideline and connects with his receiver via Bluetooth.

Wilson under center here, you get to see him turn his back to the defense, he pump fakes and fires to his man up the sideline. that pump fake freed #17 up and made the entire space in the coverage possible because the DB was originally dropping back with him into the next level.

 

Watch Wilson freeze #10 before the release.

BYU gets the ball back down 4 late in the 4th Q. they need 6 right now & not later. Wilson steps up to the plate here with an INSANE throw. Zach's RG gets tossed like a rag doll and flushes Wilson out of position, he circles around, sees the DE coming free off his block, splits in-between the gap of both defenders in pursuit, and fires a bomb to his man who was left uncovered deep. off schedule magic!!!

QB Draw from the 20 yard line. Wilson shoots up the gut, shrugs off a tackle attempt, and dives into the endzone to put BYU up 27-24 late in the 4th Q

 

gZ1746.gif

Game tied up, 1:22 left on the clock, Wilson has BYU marching, they come up on a critical 3rd & 5, Wilson feels the pressure, he begins to back peddle and runs around for what feels like forever. This is a big NO NO in an NFL game but sometimes this does happen with guys who really believe in their off schedule ability. Wilson somehow has the wheels to almostttttt secure the first down from where he started running for the sticks at his own 5. thats 25-some yards of space he covered with no room left to spare. 

BYU kicks a FG on 4th down and they win.

OT WINS in back to back weeks.

Absolutely phenomenal work.  Thank you so much for this.
