m(BTW with the election coming up, this won't happen, but I'd love it if New York governor Hochul offered a bet on the game to the New Jersey governor.  Maybe some time in the future, when she's on her last year in office.)

Dun dun dunnnnn…

Both of Josh's INT's were horrible last week.

 

Well the 2nd where Josh was trying to throw in the dirt was just a plan out damn good play by the defender. While Josh has said he made couple stupid plays, that INT in particular he was throwing away to the ground and thought it was going to be a safe incompletion. Dude made n amazing play for sure.

 

Josh learned to no longer dirt incompletions from now on and sling it out of bounds instead.

Why not fire it out of bounds?  Josh certainly has the talent to do that.  Throwing it into the ground in play - can result in disaster obviously...

Unpopular opinion - but I think Wilson has had more "wow" plays than any QB in that class.

 

With him, it's just cutting down the mistakes.  Whether he can do that remains to be seen - but the skill is there to be a very good QB.

 

I completely agree. If I'm a Jets fan (wow, that's a disturbing thought), I'm still happy we got Wilson. He has the athleticism/arm to make that leap.

It's funny how these sites can draw up articles and fill content from such mild comments.

 

I suppose the articles about players dissing each other get more clicks, but I'm glad they highlight some of the good sportsmanship in the league, too.

I agree that his skill set is excellent, his decision making and pocket awareness is horrendously bad.

Josh is a class act, plain and simple. While I think he talks trash with the best, he’s smart enough not to let that be material to be used against the team, fueling the opponent. Heck maybe it’s no class at all and reverse psychology. 🤷🏼‍♂️ ZW probably looks in the mirror and says “ gosh darn it, people like me…JOSH likes me!!”.

Did you watch the play? He’s trying to hit GD in the middle of the field and he was covered. His decision to dirt the ball was correct, he just didn’t execute. He’s human. Immediately post game he said I made a mistake and will learn from it. He takes ownership and will move on a bit humbled. I think he’s his own toughest critic. I expect he’s going to bounce back with a strong game vs the Jets.

Well good on Josh

 

 

But Zach should have thrown both of the late picks against the cheats out of boands not into traffic with a noodle arm.

 

Just saying 

 

If you watched the game, the Patriots could not move the ball on the Jets defense. They are no joke. The Bills better be ready because the jets are going to be ready. This is like their Superbowl. Wilson won't be throwing them the ball like he did with the Pats.

Jets D worries me a little bit, but if you think Wilson isn’t going to hero ball it when Miller and Groot are chasing him…

No. I didn't watch the play.  I blindly comment on things I didn't see.  The guy is covered so why throw it toward him in play?  Sideline the ball where the chance of an interception is zero.

Josh is just a good dude, and QBs in the NFL have a brotherhood regardless of their success or lack thereof.

 


Josh is the VOICE of the NFL- like Paddy Mahomes. He is not throwing anybody under the bus publicly, not only for the weekly bulletin board, but because HE is football promo man!

 

Like Gretzky, MJ, etc., he is not simply doing post game interviews for the Bills and himself; rather he is a promoter of his employer- the trillion $ NFL.
 

To me, it is astonishing how quickly and how well trained he has become at doing that!

Easy for you, are any on of us, to say from the sofa. I’m guessing it was less than a split second decision on Josh’s part. Nobody questions it when a QB bails out on a covered up screen pass by dirting the ball into a traffic jamb of players. I’m guessing Josh thought he could do the same in this particular  circumstance in one simple harmless motion, as opposed to pivoting to throw it out of bounds. He won’t make that mistake again….we all hope.

There aren’t enough “rolling eyes” emojis to fully capture the essence of these posts…
