I will say that this has been the thing that’s surprised me most about Wilson—he’s a lot tougher and more resilient than you’d think. I think there are a million red flags with him, but his grit has been impressive 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he can get that down then we may have something. Yes, I noticed that too. He was looking to his right, then looked middle, then looked left and threw the screen to carter. Went through his progression fast and did not force anything if it wasnt there. Big time growth. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Averagejetsfan1421 Posted October 3, 2022 Share Posted October 3, 2022 I’ll be the first to admit I was dead wrong, some of his passes I seen threw in the white flag then he show cases his talent in the last 2 drives and wins us the game!

Would like to see some consistency now! Compare week 1 this year to week one last year, and there is a quantum leap in composure, recognition and not having the moment be too big. Work to be done, yes, but you like to see the big moments at the end of a game. We have had first quarter QBs seemingly forever. Not many 4th quarter QBs. Let’s hope he is one. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no need to knock how he played in the 4th quarter and I hope it continues. My only qualm is with the people that are calling him the next Dan Marino, a star in the making, etc. after yesterday's game. Get over it. Optimism is warranted.

tommyduhamelshouse Posted October 3, 2022 Share Posted October 3, 2022 19 hours ago, Dcronin said: Granted he is playing behind easily one of the worst OLs in NFL history, but he should be done after this year. He's a street ball gambler, nothing more. He is not an NFL QB and Jets should use #1 pick on a QB next year. i mean, this is wrong. so that's that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the Franchise QB taking charge and it gives us hope for something sustainable . Let’s hope Zach’s 4th Quarter performance wasn’t equally fleeting going forward, or else he has about as much of a chance as being a FQB as White. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bostonmajet Posted October 3, 2022 Share Posted October 3, 2022 This is typical SOJF BS - He had a successful college QB career; we all know that. Does it translate to NFL - there is no guarantee, but to call him a HS QB just emphasizes the point that not only are fans reactionary and filled with hyperbe, but they are way too quick to dismiss a player who hasn't played a real game in 9 months playing behind a patchwork OL. Our OL is bad, but I wouldn't call them HS or even College level - they are just bad at the NFL level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Jets O line should call itself The Oregon Trial because it takes a lot of heart, hard work and luck to survive the winter while playing on the Jets O line.

I got to enjoy Zach’s comeback and was then on the beach drinking a Modelo Negra listening to live reggae by 3:30. Haha yeah I had a similar deal. Tried a new Irish pub in central Connecticut where it was 54 degrees and raining. They didn’t carry Miller Lite, so I ended up drinking a bunch of Sam Adams Oktoberfest, which tastes like if you mixed fermented pumpkin juice with equal parts gasoline and corn syrup. Place was apparently a Yankee/Steelers bar, so there was a lot of DeGrom sucks/Scherzer sucks/Judge is great/the Jets suck talk around me that I had to absorb, all the while getting hardcore trolled on Jet Nation dot com during the brief flash of competence from Zach Wilson, whom I have intermittently slandered in the past. Didn’t get any reggae, though. Got a twelve piece Gaelic folk cover band toward the end, though. Good stuff. My tab was $108, but I’m pretty sure I got hit with a 40% upcharge because Kenny Pickett threw a jump ball to his TE against Sauce Gardner, whom I didn’t want us to draft for that very reason. All told, our days were pretty much the same hahaha 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
