jgb Posted June 9, 2023 Share Posted June 9, 2023 Jets take a desperation heave for relevance by trading a first round pick and change plus cough up $100 million for 1/2 years of a 39 year old Quarterback. Jets fans: OMG the team has so much confidence in Zach's future 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T0mShane Posted June 9, 2023 Share Posted June 9, 2023 Rosenblatt addressed the issue of his and Hughes’ v. Cimini’s assessment of Zach in the last practice, attributing it mostly to the hysteria of Jets Twitter overreaction. His overall point was that as practice progresses, the drills get ramped up, and they’re sharing their observations of the drills in real time, so Cimini reported on the 11 on 11 walk through stuff where Zach threw it short and looked good, and Rosenblatt’s tweet about the goal line drills—where Zach sucked—drew all the Twitter ire. Bottom line, he says Zach has been inconsistent with his accuracy and is probably taking too long to get through his reads, but the positive is that at least he’s trying to go through his reads.

Couple ugly throws in there, including a near INT off a deflection. #Jets [Zack Rosenblatt] Zach Wilson had a rough go in 7 on 7 red zone drills. 1/4, and a couple of them were way off. #Jets When does Joe D decide to pull the plug on the idea that Zach can actually be a viable backup this year? He needs to be red shirted as a QB3 who under no circumstances will be in position to see the field this year. I understand the season is cooked if Rodgers is out for any extended period of time but we need somebody who can capably fill in if he were to miss a game or two with a minor injury. Teddy Two Gloves is least capable of completing 5 yard passes to the flats. It sucks that we even have to talk about this, especially since I figured OTAs would’ve been perfectly set up for a QB like Zach who excels in shorts to succeed. That decision is to be made next offseason. The path has been chosen. The investment has been made. He gets this year to show if he deserves another year. By all accounts to date, it seems like Rodgers is playing the mentor role. I don’t see it with him, this will likely be a bad pick, but I don’t hate what the jets are doing here. Zach will finally get to sit back and learn. He’s got the physical talent, let’s see if the jets can get the mental aspect down. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After the call, I shut down my computer and fired up YouTube on my TV. First suggested video? History of Conflict in the Balkan States. I was with a group in Ljubljana, Slovenia back in 1995. We were at a bar (that had been converted from an underground bunker) and met a guy who had been in the military special forces. He told us of the 10 day war, how Slovenia faked a sanitation strike and were bringing in ammunition from Austria through garbage trucks.

Their market heating up tomorrow? Jets are installing a new offense. It’s based on Rodgers being their QB all season. They can probably wait until -I don’t know?- halfway thru training camp and still have all of these guys available. Rodgers probably isn’t going to see a ton of action in their first two preseason games. And if they wait longer, QBs that were on rosters will suddenly become available, too. It’s a solvable issue should they feel the need closer to the season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Larz Posted June 9, 2023 Share Posted June 9, 2023 The jets instagram just put out a video on Zach. I’ll try to post it lol. I watched his footwork. He stumbles a bit , but what continues to bother me about him is he doesn’t point his left foot at the target. It was basically pointed at the guard on a throw to the left sideline. Wasn’t a bad throw but my god Zach. I’ve been watching Rodgers feet and it’s textbook most of the time. anyone that has coached a kid how to throw, its what, the third thing you teach them? So frustrating. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Larz Posted June 9, 2023 Share Posted June 9, 2023 Ugh. The footwork is so bad he has to do a little hop to rotate so he can get his shoulders around, so he’s throwing with his feet off the ground. I noticed this last year too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or are the coaches incompetent? My personal belief, borne out by what I’ve observed, he just doesn’t have a feel for the game. The best laid plans of mice and men come undone when the pressure hits. People tend to revert to their default—whether it be good, or bad… it can be corrected by an overhaul of muscle memory but his bad habits may be as ingrained as the instinct to pull your hand from a hot stove. Much easier said than done. For the attempt, he needs a full redshirt year. QB2 is a bad move and will end badly if he’s pressed into action.
