He doesn't have Allen's athleticism, rushing ability, nor can you count on a QB with accuracy issues "fixing" those at the pro level like Allen was able to. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peace Frog Posted December 28, 2021 Share Posted December 28, 2021 Zach has more arm talent in his pinky than Josh Rosen had in his entire body and Zach is much more athletic. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Becoming a franchise QB is an outlier period. Most QBs drafted are busts. Of course it is the exception.

Rangers9 Posted December 28, 2021 Share Posted December 28, 2021 Would Zach have been more successful this season with a better team.

There was no reason to add the rushing stats since its obvious his numbers running the football are far better. Wilson also isn't 6'5 235 to be running around and taking hit anyway. I car about throwing the ball and your argument is dead using stats for 1 and dismissing another because it doesn't fit your side. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s going to take time. Everyone acknowledged that Mac was the most “pro ready”. But his arm will only take him so far. Which is likely not very far. If the game slows down for Zach his ceiling is much much higher. It seems to be slowing down for him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I car about throwing the ball and your argument is dead using stats for 1 and dismissing another because it doesn't fit your side. This isn't a 1:1 proposition. One case study (Allen) does not dismiss the other (Rosen). Because there's only one Josh Allen. There are dozens upon dozens of Josh Rosen's. And it DOES matter that Allen is so much better at running the ball, because that's a part of his game that's always been there, including back in his collegiate days. He's an athletic freak. So Allen's supporters who watched him struggle early on could at least take solace that he could perhaps end up a poor man's Cam Newton. He ended up a rich man's version after "fixing" a lot of his accuracy issues, something guys just don't do in the NFL. If you want to believe in Zach Wilson because of one extreme outlier in Allen, have at it. I remember a lot of people wanting to believe in Darnold because of Allen, too, and it didn't work out so well unfortunately. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although the big bloviator is there to defend him. I don’t need Zach to “ball out”. I need him to show steady improvement. Which he has done. Watched his Jax throws again about an hour ago. Other than 2-3 passes every throw was exactly where he wanted/where it was supposed to go. I just rewatched the game. Zach was dead on accurate. No butterfly nets needed. I hope this sticks.

Maybe we should at least give Wilson another season. There are levels of busts. Winston at least is capable of putting points on the board. He had 3 seasons with 4,000+ yards, including a 5,000+ yard season. The Jets haven't had a 4,000+ yard passer since prior to the merger (Namath in '67). He also had a 28-TD season and a 33-TD season. Only twice in Jets history has a Jets QB had a 28+ TD season, and neither of those were QB's the Jets drafted (Fitzpatrick - 31 in 2015; Testaverde - 29 in 1998). And despite all his many INT's he gets sh*t for, Winston's career TD:INT ratio (135:91) is not that bad. @JiFapono Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
