And Darnold was the same, but better in every aspect and this organization gave up on him too quick. Lets see Zach operate with Bowles and Gase as head coach. YIKES! Look what Bowles is doing even with Tom Brady as QB in TB. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The defensive player came from right up the middle in full view of the QB. A little side step and the hit is avoided and the pass gets off. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WowOhWow Posted December 16, 2022 Share Posted December 16, 2022 My take - amazing how anything that can go wrong will with the Jets QB situation. That said, let's see what Zach has. He now knows he has no leash. He'll be treated like everyone else. We also got a glimpse, as did the rest of the NFL, into what White is. He's good, but injury prone. I think we might actually get White signed during this season at a better price. He knows he can beat out Zach and be the starter...and so do the coaches.

Problem is that is not sustainable. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jetsfan4life90 Posted December 16, 2022 Share Posted December 16, 2022 This season has been completely wacky lol. In any case, rooting for the Jets and Zach Wilson. If Wilson bombs this game, he's likely done here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he is offered similar money for a similar opportunity, but one that is more of a “true competition”, he is as good as gone. Ask yourself this question: If Zach Wilson was playing like White has, had sore ribs, was cleared for practice Wednesday and Thursday, with the team in the, do you think he would have been sat this weekend? You know the answer to that and so do I. This has nothing to do with health. It’s all politics. This is a fun conspiracy, but falls apart if you listen to Saleh's press conference where he detailed how Mike White got outside opinions from multiple doctors outside the Jets medical staff, none of whom would clear him for contact. Unless you think Saleh was lying about that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
choon328 Posted December 16, 2022 Share Posted December 16, 2022 5 minutes ago, football guy said: The plan was that Zach would be on scout team for at least 2 weeks, then backup for at least 1 week, with the earliest Zach would be reinserted to the starting lineup was Detroit (baring injury). Front office helped Saleh and the coaching staff come up with this plan, and ownership was approving of it. Mike White changed those plans with his play, and they determined after MIN that White deserved 2 more starts/Zach would benefit most being on scout team for another week. They determined last Friday Zach would be elevated to backup this week. If they lost this week with Mike White at QB, they were going to turn to Zach next week coming off a 3-game losing streak. Mike White had 3rd part doctors evaluate his CT scans and they wouldn't clear him. So unless the Jets were sneaking around telling those doctor's not to clear him, I find it extremely unlikely there's a deeper conspiracy to this. White had some bruising to his internal organs, and they worried another hit could pierce them. That is what happened here. I know that's what the Jets front office wants out there and I know you're getting that info from someone in that front office. That doesn't make it true. This was the chance to get Wilson back in there and they jumped at it. Listening to guys the last few weeks ago who actually played QB in the NFL and they all said the same thing. That there is no way Wilson could clean up his glaring footwork issues his obvious pre and post snap read issues during the season. They all said that would have to be done in the offseason. The Jets are going to tank bc the front office would rather be right than win. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanadaSteve Posted December 16, 2022 Share Posted December 16, 2022 Okay, I am as bummed as anyone else, but there is no conspiracy here guys. White took MULTIPLE shots to the ribs that day. Is he tough for standing in and throwing the ball? Yes. Is he also stupid? Yes. Sometimes, you gotta protect yourself. That said, being cleared to practice IS NOT the same as getting hit. He was cleared to practice, I am sure, in the hopes that he would be cleared to play. Third party doctors have all said no. He clearly has a more significant injury than what is being expressed. So, that is that. The season is on the line this week. ZACH FANS....LISTEN UP! This is it for your golden boy. He has to go out, command this team, make some tough throws and win this game. Jets lose, he should be done with this franchise. This will be the third kick at the can. The first two, he has regressed each time. This is the game he HAS to get better. There are no more outs here ladies and gentleman. He either becomes the true #1 or he steps aside for whoever QB's this team next year. Cut and dry. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What strategic advantage do you have by releasing this info today instead of 11:30 am on Sunday when the inactives come out? The answer is none. Now the Lions can run their Benny Hill drill to get ready for Zach’s pocket navigation. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the exact way I read the situation. Maybe I am crazy but I think we have a better chance to win with Zach than with White. He should have been benched after the NE game but all 3 of his really bad games were against NE...not like he was that great outside of NE games but he was not really turnover prone and Zach was pretty clutch in a lot of situations that went entirely unnoticed 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you break ribs but the break doesn't threaten your internal organs its one thing. When you get hit in the lower torso and they break in an area where the splinter can pierce an internal organ, your putting the player at severe risk. If the doctor's had the opportunity to give him a more thorough CT scan mid-game last week, I don't think they're letting him back into the game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jetsfan4life90 Posted December 16, 2022 Share Posted December 16, 2022 My thing is if Zach Wilson doesn't play great or even good, but serviceable, and Mike White is ready to go for the Jags game, does he get put in? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
choon328 Posted December 16, 2022 Share Posted December 16, 2022 Everyone who keeps saying that if Wilson plays bad this week that he's done hasn't been paying attention at all. The Jets front office cares about one thing being right. This isn't about winning and its certainly not about putting the best player on the field. It's about saving face. I thought JD was smarter than this but he's just another guy in a long line of idiots who thinks they know better than everyone else. I thought he'd admit his mistake and move on but unfortunately that's not the case and we'll most likely have the worst starting QB in the NFL starting for us again next year. There is no way they move on from Wilson before the end of next year. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no way they move on from Wilson before the end of next year. It kind of feels like they’re punting on the playoffs after the last two losses. Unless Wilson completely bombs, like New England level bad, I can’t see White seeing the field again unless Wilson gets hurt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
