Flacco starting against Ravens; Wilson out until week 4: MERGED

[Asymmetrical]

Honestly the only thing you can do is laugh. But seriously, Salah needs to keep his mouth shut about injuries or the problems with the medical staff are way worse than we thought. Either he's 1) creating problems for himself with these overly rosy timelines or 2) he's getting bad information and relaying it which is making him look foolish. Just weird and troubling either way. 

[Grandy]

The **** is this?

[Barry McCockinner]

The football Gods owe us so hard. When we finally start winning we better go on f'n a decade tear.

[IndianaJet]

Well this sucks.

But LOL to all the outrage, if he's hurt, he's hurt. 

I'm not gonna get furious over what Saleh said, hasn't said or is going to say, about injuries...

Just win games.

If Saleh was really just flapping his gums yesterday with no info from the doctors then he should be fired. 

He honestly didn't say much, now that im looking back at what he said on WFAN. Media/us fans just run with the two words of "it's possible"...

Robert Saleh said that “it’s possible” Wilson could be starting under center for Sunday’s season opener against the Baltimore Ravens.

“We put Zach through a workout today. [He] looked good, felt good,” Saleh said. “We are going to see how the knee responds today and tomorrow and have an answer for everyone on Wednesday.” “Everyone heals differently,” Saleh said. “We’ll see what happens tomorrow but …everyone responds differently.”

Still too much info though.

Right. The coach indicating the QB being ready for week 1 to an indefinite injury is more than bad PR. We’re headed back into the nothing matters arena again.

Like Leonardo DiCaprio, we've never actually left Shutter Island.

[peebag]

wow.  another season down the toilet and it's not even the 1st game.

Looking like another high draft pick next year boys and girls.

This entire organization is a joke.

Why the **** were the trainers working him out this week if he still needs another month?  

That's insane.

Conspiracy!!

I'm just gonna say this.

If we are down by 7 in the early fourth quarter, I'm gonna want Streveler.

There....I said it.  Out loud.

I agree with you but we have all been around long enough to know how the first 3 weeks go.

Flacco gets sacked in the 1st qtr and hurts his back. Mike white finishes, throws for 300 and 3td's and we beat the ravens. We beat Cleveland week 2 with white looking good again. Close loss to bengals week 3 but again white looks good.

Now to week 4 and they have to decide is Zach ready or do you stay with White?

The decision is meaningless as we finish up the season at 6-11. 

[Biggs]

Stevler will have solidified the Jets QB spot for the next 10 years by week 4.

More BS from BS

BS on Monday:  "Yeah, there's a chance.  I'll let you guys know Wednesday"

BS today:  "He's gonna be out until Pittsburgh (week 4) at the earliest"

Bobby has some snake oil (and "AGNB" tees) for sale too if anybody's interested

Yup. He is simply not an honest individual. Sneaky political rat, not a leader

Doesn’t matter. Our 2023 QB is starting for the other team.

Ha, I wish.

They can just franchise Lamar though.  He's not going anywhere.

[David Harris]

This is the first time I've felt SOJ since last season ended.  Why do we let ourselves get positive vibes ever, it's a godamn let down every single time.

 

Can we start talking about the draft yet?

You don’t go from it’s possible to out indefinitely in 24 hours unless something happened that the team isn’t telling us. Could it be he got hurt again? Saleh said no. Do the Jets think Flacco gives them a better chance to win? Certainly possible. Does Wilson not feel ready to play mentally? Could be. Does he have final say on the matter? I’d say yes. Could his agent be involved? They always are.

Jimmy G to Jets - Wilson to SEA - 2nd round pick to Niners

 

Get it done Tanny. Would be a perfect landing spot for him, NY chewed him up and spit him out already.

[More Cowbell]

But, but it was a 2 week injury. 

Welcome to the world of Jets medical staff diagnosis. Zach should be back by Dec. 

[TuscanyTile2]

Amazingly, this is going to be the 3rd straight season where Joe Flacco starts a game for the Jets.

I've been talking about the 2027 draft for a while now.  Hop on board!

[BigB]

I don't think Saleh had any intention of starting Zach week one after he was injured but week 4? He kept raving about Joe Flacco over and over as a starter in this league. The injury gave him an excuse and Zach has not practiced in weeks. Now plan is week 4. I am not sure Saleh wants to have his career tied to Wilson at this point.

If Flacco lays an egg against the Ravens  then start Streveler following week at least he has some mobility and you never know might catch lightning in a bottle. He was the best QB we seen this year in preseason.

 

[k-met57]

Fire Saleh, i am tired of his ra ra bullsh*t. Bechton, now Wilson....guy is just a ******* smile with no substance. How ******* disconnected are you to say he may play this week, and then flip to wait a month. ******* unreal.

I would forgive him if he actually won football games. 

Last I checked, that was his job.  But he can't manage that either.

He can peddle as much snake oil on the side as he wants.  Just give me results.

Seriously? This is the NFL.  Wilson's mommy or his "entourage" doesn't get a say in when he plays.

Believe it or not Wilson's mommy has some power.  Her brother is one of the top sponsors to the new york jets, if not the top.  He spent 400mil last year on the openner.  She is no joke.

[Pac]

Why am I not concerned?  Flacco is about to go Rich Gannon up in here.

I love me some Jimmy G, but just think the niners would be crazy to move on from him before the end of the year, especially after reworking his deal 

[More Cowbell]

This just proves you can't  believe  anything Saleh says. How the Hell do you go from he has a shot at starting week 1 to the earliest he will be back is week 4. 

[Morrissey]

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

[SR24]

Maybe he tweaked his knee again when they worked him out and they don’t want to leak that?  This is gonna put him out 8 weeks total somethings going on here

So you think he was purposely using misdirection on the other team (I agree) but now he has egg on his face because he over did it. OK.

get a grip

Get a grip? Huh? 

In less than 24 hours Saleh went from Zach has been having good workouts and theres a chance he'll play to Zach is out 3, possibly 4 weeks. 

Definitely has egg on his face for clearly overstating how close Zach was.

I mean to say they have no influence or say is banana land. His family owns one of the biggest sponsors of the franchise.

[slimjasi]

The only thing that makes sense to me is that he had a set back and re-aggravated his knee during one of his workouts. 
 

typical jets, regardless of what is really going on

Loose 100% of trust Jets fans had and put himself on the hot seat.
