Anthony Jet Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 No matter what this kid says 90% of the fan base is gonna hate it. Doesn’t matter. Unfortunately only thing he can do to shut them up is play better. Much much better. Not likely. Is what it is. I’ll be rooting for him but he can’t come into camp penciled in as QB1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rangerous Posted January 11, 2023 Share Posted January 11, 2023 Can’t say this is a bad thing if he wants to salvage his jet career. I can’t help but think milfy had a bigger role than has been let on by anyone. Why this conclusion? Because the offense wasn’t scoring, players were in the dog house, he was rigid with his play calling and play construction. Sounds like he was pissing players off and they got tired of it. You get a couple of players like gWilson who don’t know better than to say what they think and maybe there’s some fire under the smoke.

Let me ask you this - when he was asked by the media, who is partly to blame for his hate, about what would he do if he had to compete next year, what should he have said? short of killing himself on live TV, what would have made fans not hate his response?

I'll take a shot and go with Focus on the issues I had that led to my poor performance. Whether it was footwork, playbook, field sight etc. I am going to focus on what I need to do and not even consider or think about a training camp that is 8 months away. He also could have thrown in if he does not do that - training camp simply wont even matter. Going with the I am going to make their lives a living hell or whatever he said in my opinion is tone deaf. The issue lies with him and yes with coaching but he has to control and fix what he can. I am pretty sure there is not 1 vet QB out there who if considering the Jets is worrying about Zach and training camp. He is young so I try and give him a break when t comes to the media, but he does the same thing over and over (kind of like running backwards). His attitude always comes off as someone who has had success but it is now being challenged. this may upset some but he has accomplished absolutely nothing so far in his career - he needs to act like it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RJIII Posted January 11, 2023 Share Posted January 11, 2023 Fück Z Wilson, he's the biggest liability in the NFL. I expect the Jets to make the hardest push for Lamar after the season ends. Good luck w that ZW. If the New York Jets had a "Wack Pack" Wilson would lead that crew. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL. No. But if he, let's say, 'starts acting a fool', he WILL cause a problem in the locker room and force JD's hand to cut him or trade him for peanuts. The expectation is that he will keep his head down, work hard, and continue it try and improve. Not sure exactly what to make of this...hence my comment. Yes, I want him to be confident and feel like he should come into camp and work his butt off, making life 'hell' for any vet who comes in to replace him (even though he is technically no longer the starter lmfao). On the other hand, this is SO EARLY for this kind of talk. And it is just talk. Of all the guys in the locker room, this is probably the last guy I want to be hearing this from.

Please. Wilson isn't some innocent victim in all this. He has Steve Young and his Mom fighting battles for him. He got asked if he let the defense down after a historically bad performance and his answer was a simple "No". He's a grown man who is now very rich and yet acts like a petulant child at every turn. He brings this on himself as much as others do for him. So, yeah, nothing he says is gonna help. Maybe he shouldn't have acted so immaturely before this point while also sucking. In short, he isn't a nice boy like Sam Darnold supposedly was. Darnold hate was purely tied to his poor performances. Wilson hate is more than that. And he's even worse than Darnold was, with a superior supporting cast. Zach Wilson can get f**ked. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
