Are we ever going to figure out this QB thing


Recommended Posts

Tough break. MW is the only viable QB we currently have but he seems to be fragile.

Just have to keep developing guys. If White is hurt for a prolonged period, I would not put Zach as the starter until he checks the boxes Saleh talked about (i.e., footwork, etc). I'd like to Strev if White can't go.

I'm not sure if you can classify being hurt after a hit like this fragile.

It's not just this hit. He seems to get hurt often. He had the finger thing last year among other injuries. I would have to go back and list them. But he's had to miss snaps in almost all the games he has started. Fragile seems appropriate to me. Doesn't mean he isn't tough though. Standing in that pocket takes guts.

So went through his starts

Cincy: Had to leave the game for a few plays because of potential neck injury

Colts: Had to leave the game with an arm injury. I believe this was when he hit the players helmet and couldn't feel his finger

Buffalo: Had to leave with an injury. Don't recall the injury and couldn't find the details

Minnesota: Not Injured

Chicago: Not Injured

Buffalo: Had to miss plays because of a potential rib injury

 

4 out of his 6 starts he has had to leave the game for at least few plays because of an injury.

I don't have much confidence right now that the team has a long term QB on the roster right n ow but at least the rest of the team is good enough that the Jets might be a destination for a non-rookie looking for a change of scenery.

I know there is a lot of love for LaFleur but the OL is so uneven week to week (I know injuries, but all teams get OL injuries) and the playcalling leaves a lot to be desired. The last thirty seconds of the game isn't the only time you can throw long, no matter how much your system loves YAC. Even with a better QB on the roster, you're not going to maintain a winning record with one TD per game. This team is going nowhere if it can't beat a playoff contender from time to time.

We did not lose this game because of Mike White . The CJ penalty and Carter fumble were killers . The OL needs to be better . He came and played his ass off against a good team in a hostile environment in less than stellar weather conditions . You can’t make the types of mistakes against a good team and expect to win . Yes this week and last are both frustrating losses , but you can’t pin it on the qb . We just aren’t there yet , but I’m my opinion White of healthy deserves to start the rest of the year .
