****OFFICIAL JETS V EAGLES MINSHOWDOWN THREAD****

[playtowinthegame]

Outside of the Jets kicker they've played very well on offense  scoring 3 touchdowns with no turnovers, yet they're losing by 6 at half. If the Jets turn the ball over at all in the 2nd half this game could get ugly.

[ScarletKnight89]

Best half of football for Zach Wilson as a pro. Hopefully he can follow it up with a strong second half.

And? 

Saleh is the coach of one of the worst Jets teams to ever touch the field, and its largely because of the D. 

So the buck stops with him. 

Ok rex, calm down.  Seems like everyone thought after a 2-14 season this team would somehow become super bowl contenders with Saleh in charge. Well guess what - it takes time to turn it around.  12 games isn’t going to do it.

[Jetscode1]

JD needs to dedicate the top of the draft to defense.  Cannot stop a nosebleed.  

[Mike135]

Welp seems insane to only dress one kicker with a first-timer.

Defense sucks.

But at least offense n Zach looking good.

On a fantasy note, starting Philly's D and sitting Goedert not looking like good decisions.

Enough! Recruit the prisons and get some defense.

Doesnt matter. 

Whatever play it was would have been destroyed because Moses didnt handle his man. 

Of course it matters lol. Wilson backed into the sack which wouldn't have happened if he simply stepped up. Moses got beat but Sweat would have simply run himself out of the play if Wilson stepped up in the pocket.

Devin Lloyd or Dean or Smith from Penn State are the top 3.  One of those need to be taken by our first 3-4 picks. 

Yeah, I agree a linebacker must be taken some what early.

Do you think they’ll actually try to excuse this level of play on “prepping for the wrong QB?”

Absolutely

The rare halftime where both team’s coaches give the same speech about letting bad QBs go to town against their defenses. 

I'm not going to lie, it will be horribly conflicting if this somehow turned into an entirely defense-dominated game on both sides in the second half.

Ulbrich simply cannot make it to next week. It will seriously undermine Salehs respect. 

Nope, Salad has no respect

[greengeek]

I'm happy Wilson is playing well gives me hope for the future....dude looks like Mike White out there today.

Imagine a time warp where this post was able to have been read in August. Would it have made you happy to know that this was the threshold for happiness in the late part of the season?

[HighPitch]

Not sure what all the negativity is for.

Jets a work in progress and hanging in there. At least it’s interesting, we're not getting blown out and zach looks ok

Ulbrich can go tomorrow. 

Why wait ? get him and Hessman a fuching Metro Card and let go right now. No Uber no bus ticket Metro Card and they don’t even deserve that 

[Hael]

Feel like the playcalling on offense has been really spot on.  They’ve schemed a lot of WRs open, and ZW has been given a clean pocket and very easy throws to make.  They’ve done a good job on not exposing him to too much.

Credit to the OL for really opening up some big holes in hte run game as well.

On D, well..  Just a lot of busts and as usual our lbs can’t cover anything.  They need to clean that up in a hurry.

[Hal N of Provo]

Zach really failed on the kicking game and defense in the first half.  
 

I hope he does better in the 2nd half.  

[Rangers9]

Time for a Yuengling and popcorn.

Except the turnaround was in the works before Saleh got here, so it isn't 12 games, its 44 games in. 

Saleh was supposed to bring his flaming passion here along with a good defense, he hasnt done either, at all. 

Your angle is base purely off the fact that Saleh needs time, he doesnt, he should have been able to at LEAST field a competent D. He hasnt. 

[Rangers1]

I would have think that if the injury report had the opposing qb on it I would take a little bit of practice time to prepare for the back-up.

this is on Salah

and on a side note how does the kicking go from bad to worse?

[Prodigal Syndicate]

Cousins is adding to his MVP season by currently getting destroyed by the lions.

Why not Lloyd? Just curious since I haven’t been paying much attention to college football this season.

Can’t we just re-sign Amendola?

Zach looks okay Offense has improved substantially as season has progressed The defense has regressed to a point of embarrassment that’s why the negativity

How is making the defense 10x worse, maybe the worst ever, ‘turning it around’.

Zach is 12/14 with 3 TDs.  Can we please give the kid some god damn credit when he plays well?

[Vudu]

2nd half is when Zach comes Alive. This will be a shootout.

Too bad we have no kicker

I'd assume so.  But think I would have kept/dressed him this week.

Seems nuts to rely solely on a first time kicker.

I mean the bar has definitely been lowered.  Zach is doing a great job of running the offense today but like White or Johnson hasn't thrown the ball further then 5 yards.  Not complaining it's a good step forward.

Lloyd is getting hyped up a bit too much. He is not top 15. But if he's there in the second half of the first round, take him.

Yeah I remember when Elijah Moore didn't catch a 29 yard pass.
