Popular Post Joe W. Namath Posted October 11, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted October 11, 2021 Wilson has been bad. There is no denying that. If we are having this same conversation this time next year, Ill be concerned. Right now, im not concerned in the least. This is the normal growing pains of any rookie qb outside of the rare few like Justin herbert. 12 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uncle Nicco Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 Darnold is actually pin point accurate on these short throws. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rangerous Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 saleh has said much the same thing. wilson needs to hit those throws ten outta ten. and he does have short passes open on nearly every play but chooses to go deeper. and a number of times he's thrown a little late so the db can catch up or the window close. and then, of course, when there are times to run and also times to simply throw the ball away. the sack with 30 seconds left was just bad. shouldn't have happened. the good things is these are things he can learn. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post ScarletKnight89 Posted October 11, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted October 11, 2021 This has been the biggest issue with Zach Wilson. He misses way too many easy throws. I don't see how it's not a correctable problem. He's just playing too fast IMO. Settle down, make that throw, and it could be a TD. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree as a rookie Darnold didn't miss tons of easy throws in games. His problem was bone head plays and then the Jets beat the confidence out of him as the seasons and coaching staff wore on, and now he really is a "just hold the forte QB" , until he proves otherwise....... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moreover, each of those guys were in VERY different situations and different types of QB's. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Game seems to big for him right now, been nice to let him sit awhile to get use to it but powers that be thought he was ready. Still alot of time in the season but early returns are pretty bleak. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why this issue should be a correctable one. I know it's cliche but the game probably still needs to slow down for him. He's missing routine throws/check downs that he shouldn't miss. He's short hopping throws on those short passes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charlie Brown Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 Just now, Bronx said: That is the simplest throw to make, inexcusable. I agree with you but folks hated Darnold and would not have permitted him time to rehabilitate his game, and most importantly his mind so he had to go. ( And I was in the camp of keeping Darnold, even if you drafted another QB)... Indeed Wilson was my fourth rated QB in this year's draft for the reasons you point out but I think he can be outstanding too. I just think that the Jets need to coach this guy.... I kept saying starting him is problematic because there is too much pressure in NY/NJ to win IMMEDIATELY; hence my idea for keeping Sam. At this point I just hope that they are right and I was wrong.. that is all... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More Cowbell Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 If I was Saleh, I would start game planning a short passing game where the receiver has to make a guy miss or break a tackle. Zack is too hooked on making the splash play. Make his primary read a shorter pass like a 15 yard out or cross. The CS just can't let this continue. My brother told me when he was in boot camp there was one guy that could never finish drills. The sargent made him run miles in full gear with the heaviest gun you could carry. That guy was finishing his drills in a week. We have to force this on Zack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UntouchableCrew Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 By far the biggest and most concerning issue with Zach at this point is his accuracy on short and intermediate throws that are routine. Obviously it's not great that he's throwing picks, but lots of rookies throw picks -- he needs to adjust to NFL speed, coverage schemes, a different level of pressure, etc. But the frequency with which he throws crossing routes two yards behind the receiver, throws swing passes in the dirt, and airmails quick out routes is genuinely alarming. Simply put, accuracy is not an issue that typically improves over time. I'm extremely worried about Zach. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes it’s not accuracy related and has more to do with WR and QB not being on the same page. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
