It just really seems at times that some people on this board really think that White or Flacco are going to earn starts over Wilson this year and I just can't see that happening. It is Wilson's show this year, for better or worse. Whether you're bullish or bearish on Wilson's chances of making it in this league, every Jets fan ought to be on board with Wilson getting every start this season. He's just too important of an asset, like it or not, to sit in favor of Joe friggin Flacco. 5 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he succeeds, awesome. If he fails, that sucks. But even worse is if he gets hurt and misses significant time before we know what he is. Hello purgatory my old friend. If he gets benched it will be because he’s so abysmal that the Jets have decided he isn’t the guy. Hope that doesn’t happen, either. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Sperm Edwards Posted August 4, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted August 4, 2022 3 hours ago, Jetsfan80 said: Douglas let Flacco walk, then gave up significant assets to pry him away from the Eagles. He's not letting him be the one who got away, AGAIN. Joe just can't quit Joe. What was significant? A future 6th round draft pick, in a draft the team was already loaded with upper-round picks in both rounds 1 & 2? It was worth like 7 points, compared to the nearly 4000 other points the team still had. If that’s significant, then what insignificant look like? The flip side is Philadelphia ate the extra $ ($2.8MM of the $3.5MM) that Douglas wouldn’t give up for Flacco. Too much was made of the pick given up for him. The far bigger crime was not having a veteran (Flacco or another) on the roster in the first place - let alone after a summer of having no QBC (tragic as that reason was) - which led to putting Wilson out there well before he was ready. At the time of the trade, Wilson was really struggling; then he got injured; White hadn’t started a game since college (Bengals game was a few days away when the trade was made); they were a White injury from starting their practice squad QB since they had no actual QB3; and frankly there were other players to evaluate & it wasn’t crazy to think this young team needed a little veteran leadership on the field. In the end, he barely played (1 start). Given the other trades Douglas has pulled off, I think it’s fair to let this one go. Even if not — a future 6th round pick, at the bottom of a loaded pile of picks, still isn’t a significant asset. #fightme 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barton Posted August 4, 2022 Share Posted August 4, 2022 Last time he started an entire 16 game season, he went 9-7. He can still play, as we saw last year.

No, but that would probably be something like the 2nd or 3rd best outcome of the season. If Wilson is NOT the guy, it would be best to know that as soon as possible, one way or the other. Wilson balling out is the best option. Him failing miserably is a lot better than him having a "meh" 2nd season where the front office wants to drag things out. By the end of year 3 we either need to be talking contract extension OR replacement, and nothing in between. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Call me when Zach is throwing to the second string Offensive playmakers and outperforming Flacco. It's none QB contact practice. Flacco is done as an NFL starter. Zach is starting if he can't hit the side of a barn in practice. If Flacco gets a whiff at starting with out a major injury this board will go crazy. Anyone who remotely wants Flacco to play is out of their minds or Pats fans. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warfish Posted August 4, 2022 Share Posted August 4, 2022 The idea is clearly out there. Today in the DC Sports Media market, the Sports Junkies had a NY Post beat writer on, ostensibly discussing the Giants (this is Commanders territory, after all). But after that, the Junks asked about the Jets, and directly cited this claim, that "Flacco has been out-playing Wilson". The beat writer (whose name I didn't get, sorry) dismissed the idea near completely, saying in effect (paraphrasing here) that "Flacco is playing against #2 and guys who won't be playing or active come the regular season, so it's not an apples to apples comparison at all. I'd expect a veteran whose won super bowls to look good playing against future camp cuts", or something very similar. I agree with the beat writer. Zach is getting all or nearly all the work with the #1's. Flacco looking ok vs. #2's may excite some of the more virulent anti-White folks on the board, but it does not represent a threat to Wilson as the #1 QB. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flacco is doing everything he can to show by example how a superbowl MVP does it to both both Zach and Mike White. Just the type of pro’s pros he is. He’s not outplaying them one purpose, just who he is. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DoubleDown Posted August 4, 2022 Share Posted August 4, 2022 "Several reports..." I have not seen a single report by any of the beat writers who are present at camp every day suggesting that Flacco is outplaying Wilson as a whole. My feeling is that this entire fiasco is due to a handful of tweets about a single occurrence in camp a few days ago when Wilson had 2 three and out drives with the #1 team and Flacco drove the field with the #2 team. In short, it's based on a meaningless sample size of about 30 minutes and a very flimsy claim meant to generate buzz and clicks. Mission accomplished.
