It is pointless to start Flacco. It serves no purpose at all towards the development of this team. In fact, it stalls it. Saleh is desperate not to start 0-2 again. It's all about him, with respect to this pathetic decision for Sunday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saleh said that Flacco would “more than likely” remain the team’s starter against the Browns in Week Two, but added that “everything’s always under discussion and under review.” The last few days have not changed his mind about going with Flacco. Rich Cimini of ESPN reports that the Jets will stick with the veteran as they continue to wait for Zach Wilson to be cleared to return from his knee injury. Flacco was 37-of-59 for 307 yards, a touchdown and an interception in the loss. Its one thing to lose in a game or make some bad plays but to give up the game befroe the clock starts by playing terrible qb when you have a good one available is stupid.

Supersonic Posted September 14, 2022 Share Posted September 14, 2022 It's easy to predict Flacco will be terrible and the Jets will get blown out. Some of you guys are really going out on a limb there. Maybe the O-line will take accountability for their piss-poor play and step it up. Maybe Flacco holds true to his realization he should've been checking down more. Maybe after watching the film, the coaches will learn a thing or two and change up the game plan. Garrett and Elijah have to touch the ball a LOT more. Their potential for YAC is tremendous. Will the the players play to their best potential, and the coaches make impactful adjustments? Stay tuned. I'm taking the Jets for the win. I gotta get one right sooner or later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drums Posted September 14, 2022 Share Posted September 14, 2022 Ravens had clear advantages at both QB and HC. This week? I’d call it a tie. I think I might be even more disappointed in our TEs than any other position. Show us that it was money well spent this week. I was far from impressed with Conklin after hearing about him nonstop. As I said in another post, Elijah Moore was a better run blocker than him last game. Moore, Wilson, and Carter were the only guys with any energy on that side. I think Wilson is going to be the guy to create a spark from what I’ve seen so far. More quick passes to the WRs and less to the RBs.

HighPitch Posted September 14, 2022 Share Posted September 14, 2022 This is a funny thread….. so old man flacco, who has never won a game for us in like a dozen attempts, is automatically better than a youngster that has won one game for us in limited starts and is now in the hof. Got it. im no mike white fan but for gods sake id go with him over the washed up vet that clearly stinks any day of the week 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand that I'm in the minority, but I feel that the offensive line and Flacco will look better than they did last weekend. I'm predicting a 20-17 win. Defense will continue to look like the real deal. One side of the ball will play pretty well. The other side will suck. Special teams are lousy. The always mind-numbing block in the back so they start at the 10 yard line. The Jets will make an array of mistakes including but not limited to; drive-killing or drive-extending penalties, drops, fumbles, blown coverages, etc. Saleh will screw up a timeout or challenge flag and make a bad decision on 4th down. Jets lose again. Same story over and over and over… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flacco is like 0-8 or so for the jets White is younger and more apt to be around as a back up longer term. One is totally at the end of the line. Neither QB is good, there is at least a little upside with one and absolutely zero upside with the other. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn’t matter who starts neither Mike White or Flacco are the answer for different reasons. So that’s why I’m not losing sleep over Mike White not playing.

Why can't you at least end your post with "but I hope I'm wrong". Do you feel the need to be right, so you take the easy and most predicted outcome, in spite of your proclaimed loyalty? Special teams are lousy? Perhaps. Or maybe they just had a bad day. I wonder what you're gonna say when Berrios runs one back. You don't think it's possible the players may now be more focused on securing passes and holding onto the ball? If you think the Jets suck, imagine what they think about fans like you.

He does not have a future here, in any capacity. Flacco starting is not taking anything away from Mike White. Neither are the solution or the answer. So if they want to trot out Flacco I’m perfectly fine with it. If they start Mike White next week then I’m fine with that too. But in the long run either guy starting will mean anything. Just like Bryce Petty starting games all those years ago because of “upside”. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FootballLove Posted September 15, 2022 Share Posted September 15, 2022 29 yr old Jacoby Brissett put up 147 yards on 18 of 34 passing. Nothing to get too skered over. The real threat will come from Nick Chubb (141 on 22 carries) and Kareem Hunt (46 rushing, 24 receiving, 2 TDs). Saleha's new-found Run-D should contain/limit the damage from Chubb/Hunt. Keep the game honese. The next danger is Myles Garrett, 2 sacks against Mayfield Sunday. I don't know how good or bad Carolina's line is, but can't be any worse than our. Flacco may see his last pass this game, compliments of Garrett. Which will only get Streveler one slot closer.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jNYC1 Posted September 15, 2022 Share Posted September 15, 2022 The floor for Flacco is what we saw against the Ravens. The floor for Mike White is probably a 3 interception game. White might have a higher ceiling but the variability, is what most coaches are scared of when in a bad spot. Flacco avoided back breaking and terrible mistakes despite man coverage and heavy pressure. However, he also did nothing great to overcome the situation. Neither option is great or they would be starting somewhere. I personally would prefer Josh Johnson over either of them (or Streveler who was a backup QB in Canada - look it up - despite starting due to injury and winning the cup. His passing was stats were never great against CFL competition, even though he lit up unrosterable players in the pre-season) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have seen this "just put in the other guy and make it interesting" song and dance before. The outcome is still a loss except the backup to the backup isnt good enough to at least help the rest of the team along the way. Flacco is a washed up, old has been.

JoeWillieWhiteShoesHOF Posted September 15, 2022 Share Posted September 15, 2022 15 hours ago, Smashmouth said: NO BALLS ALL BREAKS Terrible choice. This is why we suck This team continues to disgust me . You NAIL IT. This is very upsetting. Saleh promised to be different, a risk taker, who would always defer to potential young talent over vets who had seen better days and who now were obviously on their way out of the league. Flacco not only fits that description to a tee at this point, there should also be major concern for his well being as he has had neck fusion surgery that is coupled with his serious lack of mobility. Back to the probability of the Jets winning with him as starting QB. As the old saying goes "Slim and None, and Slim just left town", the man is 0-10 in his last 10 starts. Not saying it's guaranteed that he will be 0-11, but it's highly probable. Mike White might not win either but he does have beating a team that was just in the Super Bowl on his resume. Not going to get into the 400 yards he threw for because a lot of that was YAC, but the performance was still impressive. There really should be no debate about the starter vs. Cleveland, but Saleh is DEFINITELY feeling the Heat, so he falls back on,"well the guy I started was at one time the Super Bowl MVP, that's why I started him...You CAN'T BLAME me". This is why, once again, you need a REAL HC on this team, Parcells would just say,"Mike White is starting and that's that"...if he heard peep out of any reporter questioning him he could just put his hand out and show them his rings and walk out of the room. If Flacco were a stock Saleh would not buy it. But he's using him because Flacco comes with a built in excuse. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think having half the O-line hurt (a constant issue for us, injuries) and having to shift folks around again and again is a meaningful factor in the O-line. I think Moore is fine, I didn't see anything from him to set off any red flags week 1 as being an "unfinished article". Same for G.Wilson is him limited playtime in his first game (what were you looking for from him that you didn't see exactly?). AVT didn't have the greatest game, but see above. I agree on the TE point. I said it at the time, but these Conklin and Uzomah dudes never really produced that much more than the Griffith types we already had. With that said, I'd prefer to see them play with Zach Wilson before I get too judgmental that they're not contributing. And again, I think there is a meaningful difference for all these parts playing with the worthless Joe Flacco vs. the not-yet-fully-proven-to-be-worthless Zach Wilson. If they all look like poop with Wilson at QB, aye, that's a huge disappointment and an indictment against JD as a GM and Saleh as a Coach.
