But everyone makes the assumption that they just flat out refused to sign a Veteran QB.

I guarantee you that this shakes his faith in JD a bit. He will hang on longer than we want him to, but this is the move that starts the snowball for ol Woody. I hope so 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FidelioJet Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 Just now, Charlie Brown said: Minshew is a STARTING caliber QB and is better right now than Zach Wilson!! Minshew was the QB you bring in if you keep Darnold and when Darnold doesn't perform you don't hesitate to put him in there! ZW was always going to be the starter...It was clear JD didn't want a QB controversy. This team was never winning with or without Gardner Minshew. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, in a perfect world, JD would have traded for Minshew to start the season as Zack learned the position/offense. Right now with Minshew, we'd be in the playoff hunt. It's not about the player or the pick, it's about the approach. 2 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the best this putz can do? Eat me!

The coaches didnt want to deal with the vets seeing that a different QB was better than Wilson. And if you remember camp Wilson was throwing interceptions like they were going out of style. This is just an overall pathetic way to run a pro franchise. Don’t worry bro, he’s just testing the limits of what he can get away with. 2 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Beerfish Posted October 25, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted October 25, 2021 Let's look at the Jets overall QB strategy: - Jets had Flacco last year and Flacco said he still wanted to play - Jets let him go and said no thanks we are good with White and Morgan - White beats out Morgan - Morgan gets claimed....whoops!?! Our 4th rounder from a year ago gone poof but that is okay because we like White - Jets do nothing after Morgan gets claimed, no problem dudes we are good. - Oline and team stinks and likelihood of young qb getting killed is not low, team does nothing at all. No we are good with white and maybe josh johnson - Young QB predictably gets hurt. - OMG! We actually have Mike White as our starter for 4 weeks and no back up? omg! Trade an asset for Flacco! Just brutal GMing and coaching. Just awful. 5 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bostonmajet Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 IMO this can only turn out two ways: bad and worse. Bad: Joe is washed up and even with a veteran presence is going to be lost. No more excuses - he is likely to butt heads with LaPuke. Worse: Joe manages to win a few games which screws our chance at a top 3 pick; the whole point in not having a vet was to get Zack all of the experience he can get without a QB controversy; if Joe manages to win a few, nobody would want Zack back. Problem is that Saleh is too stubborn and JD panicked This shows that JD/Saleh have no faith in Mike White nor the D. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are they worthless picks or no? You can easily flip this question around and ask why are people who are obsessed with late round picks OK with giving one up for Joe Flacco? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Needed to bring in someone that can walk in, start and at least give the appearance that you're trying to win. I'm not sure the animated corpse of Joe Flacco gives that impression. Weekend at Bernies was a fictional movie, not an instruction manual for running a billion dollar sports enterprise. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look what's happening in Chicago. The media is now dictating who should be their starting QB. JD made the right decision. So he rolled the dice that ZW would stay healthy, and now it cost him a 6th rounder, reasonable gamble. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can actually answer this one: Most people don't realize this but Johnson also functions as a backup for several positions on the team. Believe it or not he has experience as both a punter and a long snapper and had some success in the past with both. And the reason you didn't know about that is because I made it up. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
