I think there are a bunch of coaches who would like to work with Zach. it’s clear he’s got talent, he just needs the game to slow down for him. I can't imagine what team would want him and what he's worth on the market Honest There's this idea of upside but his film is terrible. What's that worth? A day 3 pick?

JoeNamathsFurCoat Posted November 1, 2022 Share Posted November 1, 2022 Mike LaFleur ain’t the problem If there’s a LaFleur who deserves to get canned it’s his big bro Calling plays for Rodgers and Aaron Jones is presumably a bit easier than doing so for essentially the statistical QB32 of 32 in the league 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meaning he has a good scheme and is a talented play caller, but not great at coaching guys. He also may not be able to adjust his system to the personnel he has.

Claymation Posted November 1, 2022 Share Posted November 1, 2022 I think we are close to saying the same thing. I guess the question is does the oc develop the qb or does that fall on the qb coach? I do believe the oc has to game plan around what he has but we have to assume he is doing that and the qb is just not getting it yet. if lafleur is going rouge and not ganeplanning to the capabilities, then I would place fault. there simply is no evidence of thatWasn’t MLF his QB coach and OC last year?

They're both outliers. In Rosen's case, he was a douchebag and a jerk off field and sucked on field too. From what I know, Wilson is just sucky on the field. Stop comparing Wilson to outliers when he seems mostly like what most bust QBs look like 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

genot Posted November 1, 2022 Share Posted November 1, 2022 5 hours ago, Mario said: the entire coaching staff that drafted Rosen got fired and Kingsbury sold Kiem and the ownership on Kyler Murray. Saleh was on board with Zach Wilson. It would look terrible if he dumps him after two years after the organization invested the second overall pick in him. Add in the Elijah Moore drama and Saleh may be forced to make a move. Saleh was sold on Wilson by JD. JD was in love with with Zack and knew he was his guy before the season ended.

What's that worth? A day 3 pick? It only takes one team/one established coach or GM. You are blind if you don’t see the natural gifts. He’s got a quick release and unreal arm talent to go along with elite mobility. That throw to Garrett Wilson was 55 yards on a rope on the move. Just ridiculous. You think Mac Jones is making that throw? I could totally see a guy like Sean McVay throw a first round pick at the Jets (maybe future first but still) and let him sit behind Stafford for a year and learn how to actually play the position.

Can he not be developed or can you not develop him? You told me to draft him. You told me he had all this potential. You told me how smart he was. You told me he’s a great athlete. You told me he studies is ass off. You actually have no idea what they're telling ownership behind the scenes. What the Coach and GM say to the public could be completely different from what they're saying behind the scenes. That goes for every organization in every walk of life.

choon328 Posted November 1, 2022 Share Posted November 1, 2022 I think it looks much for worse for the GM and Coaching staff if they hold on too long, like the Jets did with Sanchez. It's always best practice to admit your failures and move forward decisively then to try to make something work that you know isn't going to work. The HC and GM are going to be here for a long time, dumping Wilson isn't going to change that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could totally see a guy like Sean McVay throw a first round pick at the Jets (maybe future first but still) and let him sit behind Stafford for a year and learn how to actually play the position. Being able to process information quickly and being a good decision maker trumps all of the physical traits you mentioned that Zach has. Zach can not process defenses quick enough and he's an awful decision maker. There's a reason why guys like Fitzpatrick and Pennington had a lot more statistical success then QB's with much better physical traits. If Zach had their mental capabilities with his physical traits he'd be Aaron Rodgers, but he doesn't, so he won't be. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rangerous Posted November 1, 2022 Share Posted November 1, 2022 12 hours ago, GreenFish said: Zach is being hard headed and selfish. Hard to coach that up. I 100% agree with the ESPN guy that said he needs to grow up. That 3rd INT had my blood boiling and I didnt even watch the game live. The Jets have won because ML is scheming up the run game game and the defense is playing lights out. good point about the run game. so what changed? they ran 15 times against the patsies. i get that breece hall and avt weren't there but that's where you fire up the oline to run block. there was plenty of time after the patsies scored on the opening drive of the second half. all of folks fgs came off of wilson's turnovers. and even if the run game wasn't working as it should, what happened to quick passes on slants, or run pass options, or reverses, or screens and so on. too often wilson would be scrambling around and basically losing half of the field.

MLF was hired with intent to develop a QB. Saleh and LeFleur hired a 1st time QB Coach in Calabrese. The development of Zach is the responsibility of those 3 coaches. They are tied to him. If they fail, they should be fired. Saleh might survive, but no way MLF and Calabrese do. This is a result orientated business, and right now they are failing at their job.

I agree with you on the position coaches but also believe the growth of Zach or whoever the qb is should be tied to calabrese - that is his job. you want to nick lafleur for the hire - I have no issue with that but when the majority of the offense is growing and performing except for 1 position, I just don’t think that falls solely on the oc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BCJet Posted November 1, 2022 Share Posted November 1, 2022 Do people really think that mike lafleur wants zach to refuse to step up into the pocket, set his feet and make accurate throws? Yes its his job to develop him but that job ends when Zach steps on the field and if he simply cant do some of the things required to be a competent QB thats not entirely on the OC. I dont understand why zach cant get his mechanics where they need to be and its possible he is just not someone who is comfortable in the pocket but seeing some of his ints, its really hard to figure out what he is seeing on the field. I do think lafleur could improve as far as having zach take some deep shots to GW and his use of Moore is really inexplicable but at the same time we were a penalty away from being up 17-3 so maybe its nitpicking 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is year 2, they shouldn't have to be hiding ZW in order to win games. They've been hiding him behind the run game bc they know he is a turnover waiting to happen. Typically, bad decision making does not go away in a QB. It's the #1 reason immensely physically talented QB's fail. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
