You are just stuck with a small handful that relentlessly have to point out the negative in every situation no matter what... I don't know if you get off on arguing or just giving a I told you so at the end of the season but it's tiresome...

Conklin in this game had great chemistry with Zach. Good video. Thanks for posting it. As a guy reading thus forum with "muh readers", I appreciate whoever shot that video horizontally. Much easier to see than all the vertical shots. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bowles Movement Posted August 7, 2022 Share Posted August 7, 2022 1 hour ago, munchmemory said: No doubt. I have issues with our receivers, too and their drops the last two years. My comment was a general one on how the franchise, some fans and media are doing all they can to put a positive spin on everything Zach does. (I'm still in a tizzy over his newly-hewn thighs.) I don't give any of these scrimmages or pre-season games any importance. No one knows if Zach will take a step forward until he faces live action defenses during the season. So despite playing much better against our defense this year, which is substantially improved from last year doesn’t impact your opinion in the least? Interesting. But if you feel this scrimmage has no bearing on how he plays this year and you need to wait for the regular season to evaluate him, why are you here commenting? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like a good scrimmage to me. Jets fans have been complaining about WR drops for decades, and it hasn’t made a lick of difference for the QBs when paired with much better weapons for other franchises. Its high time we accept that drops happen across the league, and it’s still up to the QB to keep drives going even when there’s a drop in a series. It’s not a crutch any QB can continue to lean on, and you can’t just credit the QB for a completion retroactively. It’s 2022. It’s easy to pile up yards and points in this league. When there’s a drop that’s not on 3rd down, sack up and get the next one. Or, sack up and get the next series. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You dont want this to be some sort of narrative that winds up being almost a self-fulling thing where the refs start to look for it all the time.

You clearly have your narrative set, so I don’t think there is much use in discussing this further. But FYI, the guy supposedly had 5 passes dropped in 19 throws, including on a downfield shot to Moore. That’s over a quarter of his passes. I don’t think people are crediting Wilson with completions retroactively, but I do think it sounds like he generally made good decisions and ran the offense effectively - and I think it’s ok to be happy about that. You talk about sacking it up and getting the next series, but didn’t he engineer two scoring drives despite roughly one quarter of his passes being dropped? I feel like you might want to take a step back here from these Wilson posts - you sound like you’re getting ready to jump that Great White, my man! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your statement may be factually correct, while the data isn't here - I surely believe you. I'm arguing that that data point doesn't paint an accurate picture of the drop problem. Context here is important - and 10% of Zach Wilson's passes were dropped, which was highest in the league by far. It was a real problem last year - and continued into last nights scrimmage. Of course drops will happen, but when you have a young, learning and often struggling QB - WR's that can help him out is what you need - not lead the league in drop % 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
