Teams with sh*tty #1 QB's are always obsessed with the #2 and #3. Because the #1 is sh*tty. Take a look where Zach Wilson ranked last year amongst starting QB's. Take a look at his (Brief) one appearance in preseason this year. Take a look at where Zach Wilson is right now, in his cute little cart. Now ask yourself again why fans might care about the #2 and #3 QB spots here. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need to give Zach a full second season. Trevor Lawrence was no better then ZW, but he plays in Jacksonville and will get a just chance to develop. There will be bumps in the road with Zach, but he is the only QB on this roster that can make this team special. Just what about ZW "can make this team special"?

Justin Herbert, Joe Burrow, Josh Allen, Kyler Murray, Ryan Tannehill, Cam Newton, Matthew Stafford and Matt Ryan all started 10+ games their rookie years and it ended up working out just fine for them. Lamar Jackson started 7 games his rookie year as well. He went 6-1. QB's have been preparing their whole lives to play the position at the pro level. They don't need a full year to "sit and learn". As if that's an effective way to learn the position anyways. You're not going to truly "learn the position" or get used to the speed of the pro game until you start seeing live bullets. If you struggle your first couple years at that then you likely don't have the processing speed and quick decision-making skills for the game anyways. Sit them down a few games to start their rookie year? Sure, fine by me. The whole season? Not necessary or even advisable. There's no way to prove in either direction that sitting longer at the start of a QB's career leads to success. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also find it interesting how the Zach is injury prone crew wants to start Mike White ahead of him. The same Mike White who has never taken 100% of offensive snaps in an NFL game. He has missed time in every start. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bronx Posted August 28, 2022 Share Posted August 28, 2022 Zach needs to play and be tested. It's the only fair way to find out. My sugestion is week #3 or #4. Flacco will be starting by default in a very Jetsy way. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We could do worse than him as our backup until Zach fully screws the pooch. you guys have to get off this Jimmy G stuff. yes he is a good QB but there is no way we trade for a guy making 24 mil to start 2 games and then backup. and you got to wonder why he still hasnt been traded. my guess is SF is asking too much for a one year rental.

Not really a good enough argument for sitting them down for a full season. Lack of collegiate experience is a very strong correlate to QB bust rate. So whether you sit those guys or not, they're very likely to be busts regardless. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They can be inflated if the sample size is smaller. Plus White and Flacco had a healthier supporting cast. We had the most drops in the NFL by WRs. Not saying Zach played well, but let’s not say White and Flacco were better. Zach had 11 picks in 13 games while White had 8 in just 4..I think Damien Woody pointed out that Zach only had the equivalent of one game last season when all of his weapons were healthy.

Justin Herbert's receivers dropped 5.8 % of passes thrown to them last year, 5th highest in the league. Didn't stop him from balling out. For sure. But total passes dropped is irrelevant because of big differences in pass attempts. Wilson had the highest percentage of “catchable” passes dropped last season according to PFF. Btw, according to this list, Herbert was 7th. https://jetsxfactor.com/2022/01/15/zach-wilson-nfl-lead-jets-message/amp/ It is ALSO true that Zach Wilson struggled with his accuracy. And you are right, if someone balls out at QB, drop rate won’t hold them back. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
