Did MW do enough to keep ZW from starting next week?

[Cut Jet Penalty Makers]

I think he did but does this loss give Saleh and JD the excuse they need to bring ZW in?

[GangGreened]

Unless he’s hurt he will keep playing until we are out of contention 

[Augustiniak]

Bigger problem is that flacco stinks so bad they can’t justify having him as the backup anymore.

[Saul Goodman]

Are you joking?

[Wit]

I think they use MW injury as an excuse and throw Zach in there against a poor defense. Lions are GOOD. Jags are decent. Not a cake walk to get to 10 wins. 

[defensedoesntgetyoulaid]

Mike White is one tough SOB

[Beerfish]

Of course he will start, he is still not the answer but he will start for the rest of the year.

[extmenace]

Yea, this game was lost by the o-line and the two turnovers. Michael Carter doesn’t fumbled, that FG we made at the end of the game is likely to tie the game. 
 

team is still young and you can’t make as many mistakes as they did today and expect to beat elite teams on the road.

[Adoni Beast]

Played better than expected. OL hurt us.

Gutsy tough game from The White Knight.

You guys are ******* stupid. The end

This was obvious to everyone in the western world except the new york jets.  Having him as backup is idiotic and you get what you deserve.

[heymangold]

Is this a serious thread?

[JiFtheOracle]

Absolutely but the Jets handling of the QB position has been absolutely baffling, so who the **** knows honestly.  How on earth Joe Flacco continues to be a part of this team when he's had one miraculous moment to speak of is beyond me.  Putting him in the game is like setting off a nuke on your offense.

So who have you got as "the answer"?

[GreenFish]

Yes, he has done enough to play as long as he is healthy. He has also played well enough to have a shot at the #1 QB spot next year.

While he is a tough dude, the injuries are concerning. Like I posted in the other thread, he has been injured in 4 of his 6 starts. And he frequently looks like he is in pain when he gets hit. We need to add another veteran who can also start to the QB room as White's durability has to be a concern. He needs to add some clean weight to his frame if possible. 

[August]

Why? 

[Green Truth]

Absolutely, barring injury. He does not go out when Joe statue came in driving the team twice, took all the air out of the team. Carter don't fumble. This game is entirely different. Mike White is fragile as heck, though. He is tough though.

[RutgersJetFan]

The Jets are 1-2 with Mike White starting this year.

Jets should start Joey Steevler

He easily did enough.  He's been let down by several players including his offensive line and CJ Mosley's inexcusable offside at the end of the half.

The Jets can win with Mike White, Garrett Wilson, and Bam Knight.  Horrible fumble by Michael Carter on the heels of the offense's many mishaps last week.  

Now, I am concerned about him staying healthy enough to be our QB :).  But that's a different question.

The future is extremely bright.  Games like this make me double down on my belief we need to go offensive early and often in the coming draft.

Round 1:  Big WR who can score in the red zone

Round 2:  OT

Round 3:  Center

Zach is supposed to start when he fixes his faults. If he didn't  do that, MW can lose by 100 points and Zach should still sit.

Someone who is not on the team right now.  Who is your answer?  Mike White?  2-5 in his career 8 tds 10 ints

Lol. Oh boy. Here we go. 

[Grandy]

I think he has, but a part of me is skeptical about what the team will do. Zach doing well against the Bills and winning can now be compared to White losing and getting beat up against them. White has also lost twice in a row with not great play. Someone may also say that Wilson was 5-2, and White is 1-2 so Wilson's skillset was able to keep defenses honest. I personally think it's silly to think that way, but I wouldn't put it past them. They've been quite unpredictable. 

Now would be the time to put Wilson back in if they really want to. Unless he's really hurt, I think we've seen the worst football from White this year already. Our end of year defensive slate should let White put up some big performances if he's allowed to play which would effectively shut down Wilson talk. 

Tricky times are ahead. Hope we do the right thing and stick with the best QB.

Come on Jetsfan80.  It's easy to get a top 10 franchise QB plus the salary cap doesn't apply to us.  

Mike White played another good game with several excellent throws.  Unfortunately others on his team made losing plays.

[sciond]

Easily

bigger question

has ZW done enough to be the backup

[SomebodytoAnybody47]

When I’m looking for what’s wrong with this team right now, Mike white is not close to the top of the list. 

[Barry McCockinner]

MW has earned at least as many audition starts as ZW got. This shouldn't be a question after every game.

[fullblast]

Here’s your answer

 

[k-met57]

i would really like to think we still have something in Zach Wilson, but today was probably my tipping point for starting White going forward. Never mind the tough thing, i think he needs to take less hits....but he threw some dimes today.....i was impressed.

[SilverbackJet]

Barring injury MW should start.  Zach should be the backup tho. 

[Barton]

MW is out there making incredible passes and smart incompletions when needed.

His offensive coordinator is too conservative/too predictable and consistently hand cuffs the offense. 

 

[Biggs]

MW starts Zach is the backup.
