Jets with Zach - like it or not

Really curious to see how this goes. White and Flacco made their hay by planting their feet in the pocket, waiting it out, and getting pasted in the process. In the few instances where Zach has looked good, it was when he was bailing out and running for his life. If the plan is to get Wilson to be a pocket passer, I don’t see how that works considering his size and skillset. It  makes you wonder if the marriage of him and LaFleur is going to last very long at all. 

Yes, it took a while for plays to develop with White under center waiting for the receivers to get 8 yards deep.

And it's why this team will be in perpetual 2-9 mode until a true QB who can play and lead is identified.   Maybe that happens two years from now when Zack goes the Darnold route and we sign a veteran.

Not sure why the idea of signing a mid aged serviceable veteran is so out of style. As long as they can manage games, not make mistakes, and build an a over average defense you can have success in this league.

Seems like we are always swinging for the fences with young QBs who don’t work out

Hmmm. You understand why this stat doesn't address the post you are replying to, right? 

Mike White had a flukey game in which his receivers had a million yards after the catch. Mike White's average depth of target in the Bengal game was 3.7 yards and the Bengals missed 15 tackles that day. 

None of this is to say that White didn't play very well -  he did. The concern is that this type of performance isn't sustainable.

this is wrong. this is yard per catch. White could throw it 2 yds and then get another 10 by YAC. the correct answer to the question was how far was the avg pass thrown thru the air.

your stat is yard per pass att.

the correct stat is completed air yds per completion CAY/COM. Zach has it 7.3 to Whites 4.4

Sorry, but this is so wrong. You work within what the offense is designed for. Just because Zach can effortlessly  throw the ball 60 yards in the air and throw well on the move doesn't  mean you design an entire O based on that. Even Jackson who is the best at running with the ball is throwing from the pocket  more and that O was designed  for his skill set. 

Ever hear of playing to your players strengths or you believe you take the player and plug into whatever offense we have.  Your point is nonsense.

I'm really nervous for this game. I don't care about the end result but I want Wilson to look good. I just don't think he will and he's fresh out of excuses after the C team of QBs looked decent while he was out.

Being a first year player is an excuse?  There are great Qbs who had disgusting first years
