Popular Post Matt39 Posted February 9 Author Popular Post Share Posted February 9 19 minutes ago, chirorob said: Everything I ever read was the opposite. He put in the time, to the point he was probably over thinking it. Don't get me wrong, he is an epic bust, but not because he didn't work. He may have just been far too raw, or he may not just be able to process fast enough for the NFL. He wasn’t in the facility once last offseason. Or the season before that. You can’t say the quarterback overall 2 pick is putting in the work living at home in the friendly confides of Utah. Mixture of not knowing how to work hard with rough interpersonal skills, especially in an nfl locker room. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The car insurance when they all start driving.... Had Johnson and Douglas removed their heads from their posteriors on the night Rodgers went down and called the above, Jets would have been a playoff team. But no, they had to keep up the pretense Zach Wilson(Native American name; "Runs Backward") was an NFL QB. Johnson because at his heart is a cheap bastid who can't grasp the big picture past his crappy garish jewelry. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It always seems to be in Utah with his pack though. Weird. It’s very weird that he and only he, goes back to visit family from time to time. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rangers9 Posted February 10 Share Posted February 10 Zach was not only benched in 2022 but deactivated for several games a pretty serious development in only his second year in the NFL. He made some mistakes off the field esp after that NEP game when he wouldn't take any blame for that zero offense game to me it was overblown and all he did was to show confidence in himself. Look the guy is still only in early 20's it's not over for him. What impressed me about him after being demoted is I remember seeing tapes of a Jets practice where he was just a teammate and joking around with the HC who just demoted him. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is not something they should have been shocked with. They definitely have guys who do a lot of background/ character work, especially on 1st round picks. The whole weak pretty boy/ mammas boy stuff was all ignored by JD. Just like the pre draft rumors about becton having issues with weight, motor hustle, all red flags for a lineman. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At worst he is completely disconnected from reality. 2) it is extremely over for him. Guy can't play and everyone knows it. He'll probably stick around the league for a while but he's an all time bust. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I don't resent him for not being a good enough player. I hope he makes it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can’t say I blame him, but it’s not what the NYJ needed out of a #2 overall pick. Certainly possible. Though it could also be that we just view him that way because he's a Mormon and most Jet fans are probably not Mormons. I still give him a lot of credit for improving this past season when he could've easily been crushed by the negativity of the fans and media (and I think he stunk his first 2 years too, btw). To me, that indicates he's got confidence in himself. I respect that a lot and it makes me root for the guy. Quote Kid is perfectly content staying out of harm’s way and cashing Woody’s millions, spending time in his cocoon in Utah with his girlfriend and family. I'm sure he is enjoying life in the offseason but we don't know what he's doing other than that. We might see pics of him on the beach with his girlfriend but, for all we know, he might've already worked out for several hours that day. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flashlite80 Posted February 10 Share Posted February 10 I've suffered through Zach's three years here. He failed miserably. However, the team failed him. Only a fool drafts a quarterback with the second pick of the draft and doesn't put any semblance of a decent line in front of him. The Jets line, assembled by our incompetent GM, has gone from terrible to disgraceful to " How could it be this bad" in Zach's three years. I saw the Jets destroy Peyton Manning in a playoff game because they had him under constant pressure. I saw Tom Brady look terrible against a relentless Giant rush in a super Bowl. The point is, even the best experienced QB;s are not successful without solid protection. Look at the top 5 QB's every year and they share one thing few talk about, a clean jersey every week. Zach failed miserably. If he goes to a team that has a solid offensive line and quality skill players, I believe he may make every fan pull their hair out that our team screwed up so badly. The owner picks the GM. No team has had a run of more incompetent GM's than our Jets. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unathletic stiffs Joe Flacco and Mike White had sack rates twice as low as Zach Wilson's from 2021-22.

Joejet Posted February 10 Share Posted February 10 Wilson has enough arm talent and is athletic enough to be an NFL QB but he lacks the maturity to be a leader right now. His biggest issue is that his ability to read and react is well below NFL standards and I don’t believe he ever will be able to. It is a failed draft pick and it’s time to move on. Get what you can for him or cut him but for the good of the team he has to go. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
