I agree.  It was stupid.  That doesn’t mean it wasn’t what Saleh was trying to do.

Now we gotta wait 24 hours to get our chess pieces back

Alternate theory.  Zach is healthy and Lafleur thinks he sucks and doesn't want to play him.   Zach is Mims but they can't say it.  

I would not rule it out but listened to Saleh sounds like the doctors were worried about the bone bruise and that could somehow lead to another injury.  I would also not rule out Mommy Wilson sticker her nose in after hearing what the doctors have said.

This was absolutely my thought as well. Team Wilson stepped in and put an end to Saleh ******* around with their darling boy. As they should! 

It is such an absurd take - and you have half the board agreeing you.  

This is the same problem with we had with Becton - The NY Jets medical staff is a joke - and their communications department are awful.

But there's nothing diabolical going on here.  Wilson't family has no leverage here - not a single, sliver of leverage to dictate anything.  AT AlL.  

[Grandy]

This is once again, and awful look for the staff. Wtf Saleh?

We are going to win.   Garrett Wilson is a happy man right now.

Mims is more happy.  He will get a couple balls thrown his way and showcase his skills. 

[derp]

Jets want Zach Wilson to be 110% healthy. That is mathematically impossible.

On a serious note, if the earliest he’ll be back is week 4 and they’re trying to be conservative, which I do understand, put him on the IR list and open up a roster spot instead of maybe being able to play him against Pittsburgh.

I’m going to do absolutely everything in my power this season to not dwell on anything other than how competitive the Jets are each individual week.  I’m done wringing my hands about what every damn thing might mean about the franchise 2 years from now.

THIS, this is a "Gud Post".

Just Win.  Win on Sunday. 

Everything after that can take care of itself.

Do what needs done to win on Sunday.

I guess you won't believe me no matter what I say.

But I never believed Hackenberg was good. ? So yeah, I'm not phil.  Assume you mean philc

Dreams, Phil, idgaf.  You’re definitely a poster who’s been banned multiple times back to your old antics.  I’m sure that won’t last long.

yea, Zach didn't learn to play all of the WR positions so they're stealth benching him. 

[FidelioJet]

Flacco is terrible.  Just sucks another season down the drain.

[jbt]

just stop giving updates and predictions

Most bone bruises slowly heal over 1 to 2 months. A larger bone bruise may take longer to heal. You may not be able to return to sports activities for weeks or months. If your symptoms don't go away, your healthcare provider may give you an MRI.

Duly noted. Why was Wilson running off the the West Coast when he could've easily gone for a 2nd opinion in NYC or Boston in 3 hours? Unless he's a coward looking for a doctor to tell him what he wants to hear. 

Wilson is clearly a whiny pussy who isn't taking the field Sunday.

Again.

Like last season. 

You ignored, time and time again, posters telling you that it was common place among athletes to travel to see this particular doctor. They don't go to this doctor to "tell them what they want to hear". They go to him because, apparently, he's really f*cking good at what he does.

Just a colossally absurd take.

Speaking of banned posters, are we taking bets on which formerly banned poster is now known as "SuicidalSince98".  

[JoeNamathsFurCoat]

The Jets are like a casino, and every new head coach is like a naive gambler believing "it's my day".

They strut in all happy and optimistic and leave broken and defeated with their reputation in shreds like the confetti used to fill birthday party goodie bags.

What are the odds on the next snake oil salesman to take Woody and Chris' money?

In other words, who will be the next HC after this clown Bob Saleh gets canned?

Time to accept facts that Woody’s Jets and Rex Ryan just deserve each other.

Think it more plausible Team Wilson wants that. Unless the Jets are run by idiots, which is a possibility.

Problem is if your on IR , I don't believe you can practice with the team.

His uncle dumps a lot of money into the team, which is a fact. Something surfacing over the last 24 hours that totally contradicted what Saleh was saying yesterday seems plausible. If it were just gamesmanship Wilson would be out this week and we’ll check in next week for his availability. He’s now suddenly out indefinitely. It’s suspect.

This is some horrific bungling regardless. Asserting that Team Wilson stepped in is actually the optimistic view of what happened.

[Matt39]

4 minutes ago, Mogglez said:

That’s a whole lot of words for “I took something out of the realm of possibility at face value, so JetBlue must have put in a call to protect Zach.”

There is no face value here. He went from trending up to indefinitely out in 24 hours.

Well, if "Team Wilson" really knew what was good for him, they never would've let him be drafted here in the first place.

Ironically, that also would've been what was good for the Jets, too.

Saleh is a clown for his piss poor communication. What purpose did it serve for him to say Zach may be available week 1?

True, but now the Steelers aren't sure which QB to prepare for in week 4!

I swear I have never been on this site before under any other name.

I was a longtime lurker and do remember some of philc's posts though.

And I'm no troll.

Just a Jets fan who enjoys how it feels to win football games.  So maybe you can understand why I might be unhappy.

Does he figure it out 3 years later and leads us to the playoffs? 

Lol, no.

Almost certainly not.

But maybe he can game manage us, with an improved roster and Defense, to a few wins.

You can go into NYC and see any number of great orthopedists. Or Boston. The only such doctor in all the land is not in LA.  There was no need to burn that much time . But the Jets are a goddamn circus, and Wilson is a clown.
