drew39k Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 Good. Kid needed to find the bench anyway. Put Josh Johnson in at QB so we can have someone on offense that has any level of experience since neither our HC nor our oc do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJerseypaint Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 Good. He needs to sit and watch. Kinda wish they'd let him just sit the rest of the season and learn before being thrown back into this mess of a team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soflbillsfan Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 They should keep him out the full 4 weeks no point in rushing him back at this point dont want to give him long term issues on that knee if he is your franchise qb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gotta say, this is a lot different than the "has to play/start/take his lumps" chants with rookie quarterbacks from the fans. Has Wilson been that bad?

Has Wilson been that bad? Yes - a resounding yes. His physical tools are great and he can definitely throw the ball, but it's overshadowed by his inability to read a defense. He's running out of the pocket well before it collapses instead of stepping up, finding receivers late, and trying to play too much hero ball. It hasn't helped that he has an inexperienced coaching staff leading the way either. I'm over trial by fire. Zach literally has 0 people to lean on to grow. He doesn't have a veteran QB in the locker room, he doesn't have an experienced OC, and his QB coach passed in the offseason. We're asking him to shoulder way too much. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As bad as he has looked, it is better to get him reps now when there are 0 expectations for the team. Let him make his mistakes, get used to the speed of the game, and build a rapport with some receivers. Missing 2 weeks isn't a huge deal, but it is still less than ideal.

ronjon1990 Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 They're going to break him faster than they did with Sanchez or Darnold. Physically and mentally. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has Wilson been that bad? Yes he has been that bad. But also, I don't believe in taking rookie lumps. He and virtually every rookie QB should sit for a year. I think that time spent learning the NFL game behind a competent NFL QB is a massive boon for any QB prospects. Wilson should have never been slotted as QB one with no veteran coaching and no veteran QB. It was monumentally stupid 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BayRaider Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 Bellichick single handedly destroys those young Jet QB’s and stunts their development. Wilson and Darnold both seeing ghosts. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm more worried about year 2-10, not the first year. Obviously get the guy some play time, but just transitioning from the college ranks to the NFL arena is a big step for a rookie. Probably a lot of little things you really have to get used to let alone playing in games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
