Popular Post Copernicus Posted March 31, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted March 31, 2023 20 hours ago, Charlie Brown said: You Sir sound like a person who might be a teacher and hence you are interested in bringing out the best in someone..... The Truth is some don't like him for his religious affilation, others don't like his choir boy looks, some didn't like him drafted at all and still, others don't like the fact that Zach, by his poor play, let them down.. Whatever the case folks in Jets land should ease up on the young man because at the end of the day Zach Wilson is on our team and we can only hope that he figures it all out and turns his career around for the better...... Thank you for such a well thought out response, I am not surprised. We have been fans (and on this site) for many years and take your responses with much respect. I think you are spot on here. Firstly, Zach Wilson's play on the field this season got progressively worse. It became clear that he was not neccessarily in over his head talentwise, but mentally at a real high level. Not being able to complete a pass to a wide open receiver 3 yards away but able to connect 40 yards away throwing across your body leads all of us to realize something was very wrong. His problem is clearly between the ears and this makes it even more difficult to overcome. . From what we know, Zach Wilson has never been accused of or arrested for a terrible crime. There have been examples of him being a real nice kid. Picks up the check, leaves a big tip at restaurants, flies to his teammates in the off season to improve, signs autographs for kids and fans, respectful when he speaks, ect. His work ethic off the field is from all indication at the extreme top, to the point where he is asked to leave the building because he is spending too much time watching film. I just don't see the level of ridicule he is taking for going through something so in the know as mental health. I think you're on to something that our front office might also have overlooked is the negative lightning rod of Zach's presence and lack of likeability. I think you're correct that some people look at him and immediatly hate him for his physical traits (blonde hair/blue eyes), religious affiliation, wealth before football, ect. I also believe that some who claim they dont want to live in a world where we are judged by the way we look or our religion could look in the mirror a little deeper if they too are doing the same with Zach. Some of those same critics have less to say and more sympathy for players who are terrible humans and less work ethic. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would do the same, but I wouldn't do it on Twitter. Point well taken , I agree Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saul Goodman Posted April 1, 2023 Share Posted April 1, 2023 Pennington, Sanchez and Darnold were all trashed relentlessly by much of the fanbase. And each of them performed far, far better than Zach. Just part of being a quarterback for the Jets and not playing up to expectations. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
