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

Thank goodness. Sounds like there may be a catch though.

[TheClashFan]

If the Jets are serious about resetting ZW, then he should NOT start another game until/unless the Jets are eliminated from the playoffs. Maybe not even then. 

Why go to him when the OL is getting MW killed with poor pass protection?

 

[ultraJETfan]

I think he did enough to start next week but it's going to be his last shot. If he goes 0-3 then it's going to be hard for the staff to justify giving him another start. His toughness is admirable but it's very concerning how often he gets hurt. He needs to steal Zachs personal chef in the off season and gain 20lbs.

[Prodigal Syndicate]

Yes, but he is clearly injured which may factor into it.

Mike White is the QB of this team

[bd71]

Be a travesty if he (White) didn’t start.  He’s done nothing to lose the job.

[frankiepapa]

Yes, Mike white on the way to the hospital now as we speak... his injury might be one of those that are worse once the adrenaline wears off

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

I'm totally fine with that.  Zach had 3 weeks to work on his game.  We need him as the backup now (especially after what MW went through today).

I consider that good news. Be careful about the "if healthy" part.

[More Cowbell]

Saleh said MW to start if healthy

[shuler82]

Oh for ****s sake. 
 

Zach Wilson is not an NFL qb right now. The light bulb hasn’t magically gone off sitting on the bench. 
 

this is White’s team.

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.  So who is that?

White is my answer, yes.  A mostly homegrown product (for 3 years, which is most of his career) who is still developing, the team clearly likes and plays well for, and who just threw for nearly twice as many yards as the great Josh Allen, despite busted ribs for a good portion of it. 

Berrios doesn't drop that TD against Minnesota and Carter doesn't fumble today (even if we still go on to lose) and we're having a VERY different outlook on White's career to date.

Mike White is my guy but I am also open to adding Minshew as the QB1b to compete and drafting a QB in the middle rounds.  Meanwhile, fire Zach Wilson into the sun for all I care.

I've given my argument.  Now tell me who your guy is and why.  Saying "White isn't it" over and over is just lazy.

He can be AN answer and still not be THE answer. 

Finding someone who fits the latter description will be the sole focus of this offseason . . .

[K_O_Brien]

White did ok today and deserves to start again. 

He'll continue as a starter, until he loses a game he's not supposed to. 

[Charlie Brown]

Let me say this clearly Mike White Lost!

He Lost!

Time to get ZW back in there!!

Those weren’t  Salehs words.  The reporter prefaced his question with it and Saleh replied ‘yes. For sure’ without hesitation

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

Which of the two would have been wins with the other available QB's?

If not & they still want to hold Zach out at least make Streveler the backup... Flaaco is not the answer there either.

I'll let you know in the off season when I see who is available.  Or better yet I might let the actual GM do the work on that.

White version 2 is the same as White version 1, great game, then gets hurt ans loses games.  If White takes the team to the playoffs then of course he is the odds on guy to start as #1 next year but the jets still need to add another QB even if they keep both white and wilson.

It would be MUCH harder to justify choosing Zack Wilson over a healthy Mike White (unless/until we're out of the playoff picture).

If White is hurt and the option is Wilson vs. Flacco?  I have to assume we go Wilson, but even that I'm not 100% sure of . . .

Lazy a$$ and cowardly take.  There are plenty of guys we know will likely be available to be able to make a call like that.  Hell, even football guy had the balls to put his name on Aaron Rodgers.

[rex-n-effect]

If there's anything you can say about Saleh, it's that he has no problem benching a player for extended periods of time even if it's a supposed starter the team drafted. I don't think he's looking for an excuse to bring ZW back and his future with the team is clearly not tied to ZW emerging as a successful starter. 

It's going to be more troubling to see Flacco remain as backup because Flacco sucks and that really says something about how little they think of ZW right now.

Tone it down, mate.  He's entitled to his take without being personally insulted for it.

[English Jet]

White to start but I'd bring Zach as back up. Flacco was very poor even though he was only on a few snaps.

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. 

I think that there is a good chance MFW will NOT be able to play next week. He probably has broken Ribs. He was sent to the hospital.

WHO WILL  QB?

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

The highlighted- 1000%...

the other- not so sure, much will depend on his health or the "excuse" of his health.

[RevisIsland610]

The Jets lost to the Bills because of 3 mistakes and injuries. You just can't make those mistakes and against a very good team on the road. If you can't see that Mike White should start next week I don't know what tell ya except get a clue. 

[Jet9]

If Zach starts for any reason aside from an injury it's an indictment on the CS and front office. Dude needs to sit.

If its a bad, lazy take, it deserves an insult.  He's adamant that White isn't the guy but can't pick one QB out of the numerous that should spring free this offseason, or in the draft, that he's in support of adding?  F that.  Lazy and cowardly.  

I think White IS the guy and I even mentioned adding Minshew.  It really isn't that hard.

[Jimmy 2 Times]

The difference in this game was Allen's legs.  Zach loses today, but his taking off and running in the first matchup was huge.  It was the first time he stopped running backwards and actually moved the chains.  

Mobility is so huge in today's game especially against the Bills when they drop everyone.
