Again they didn't want a competition , they wanted Zach to be the starter. Most quality backups only want to go where they feel they have a shot to play. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Jets probably told him Zach is our day 1 starter . Ahh yes, the ole "We just traded for a guy who didn't want to be here so somehow that makes it better, not worse." theory 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’ve been here watching us root for 53 pedestrian talent-level players every year the past 10 years. Duh. Not attempting anything. Read the thread.. Minshew has a very limited NFL skill-set. While I agree pedestrian is pretty much what's on the team (save two or three players) I'm not screaming to have signed them ad nauseam. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick Mullens isn't competition he's a back up....so Wilson is so fragile he can't have Nick Mullens as a back up? lol Joe Douglas has given up a 4th and a 6th/5th for two back ups in 2 years....that's madness. 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was never getting benched, he was going to take him lumps and learn...that was the plan. Avoiding media and fan distractions is why they didn't bring in a veteran back-up.

Popular Post Adoni Beast Posted October 25, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted October 25, 2021 Should have signed Flacco in the offseason. Flacco should have started the first 4-8 games.

The draft pick isn't a big deal we can regain that pick pretty easily.

Adoni Beast Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 2020 Joe Flacco in the games he started looked like the best starting QB the Jets had since 2015 Ryan Fitzpatrick… …and 2008 Brett Favre before that.

BloodGreen Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 Completely disagree. The guy put up 21 TDs/6 INTs with Jax in 2019. If he's on the field this year? We probably win most of our games.I don’t see how this team, with the performance we have seen to date could ever win “most of our games”. We are not a Gardner Minshew away from playoff contention.

Nobody goes into training camp and the season with Zach Wilson, Mike White, John Morgan and Josh Johnson. lol 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
