Oops o thought he game was gonna be home

  My bad.  Guess 5he Mafia is gonna have to cause a whiteout of the Miami 9ffense let it get buried under Josh and the offense raining cold strikes to freeze out the Dolphins on way to a tuna factory.  Normally I'm snti tuna fishing  in regards to the actual dolphin mammals but the pro nfl team Dolphins put them on ice and bury them in it.

Just saw that he got demoted to 3rd string. For the life of me I don't understand why they stuck with him for so long and what flipped the switch - would love to know who was actually behind both decisions. My guess is it wasn't Saleh.

 

Joe Douglas bending Woody's ear no doubt and Woody telling Saleh to play him until it was obvious.

She will surely be limited the next day with a groin injury. 

Wonder if the slip yesterday was just him practicing how to fall on the bed backwards…

Yup, but it won't be sweltering and the Bills won't be coming off a Monday Night game this time...

Best possible news for the Miami game on Friday. It looked like that Jets team quit yesterday as the game went on and I believe they will show up big time to prove how much they could not stand Wilson as a starter.

 

I don't think Boyle is significantly better than Wilson but maybe for 1 game he can play just well enough to inspire the Jests D.  If they can get after Tua, they might have a chance.

Correct.

Zach Wilson's Week 11 benching will continue into Week 12.

The Jets will start veteran backup Tim Boyle in this Friday's game against the Miami Dolphins.

 

Jets head coach Robert Saleh confirmed Wilson's benching on Monday afternoon and told reporters that Wilson will now be No. 3 on the team's depth chart. Veteran Trevor Siemian will back up Boyle, while Wilson will also be active on Friday.

 

"Just give him an opportunity, different style of quarterback," Saleh told reporters on Monday of his decision to go with

[PBF81]

Wilson's finished as a planned starter in the league.  

 

 

LOL, in college Boyle had 1 TD and 13 INTs as a backup.  

 

48.4% compl. %, 4.5 YPA, 2.4 AYPA  

 

Yikes!

Saleh circling the drain....

Yup and really, I don’t know why he would catch on as a back up. Very few people are given this much time to develop and I don’t know if he’s a really studious type or guy who will go out of his way to help whoever is playing or coming up. We will see.

[Billsatlastin2018]

I swear he’s one of the worst starting QBs I’ve ever seen in watching the NFL fora 1/2 century!

 

pathetically brutal! 

[Spiderweb]

I was very skeptical about the Joseph signing initially, but now I only ask why did this take so long. He had been available. He has been a very good addition for sure.

[Xwnyer]

And we have lost to this guy twice 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

Interesting case.  The defense is very strong.  He has an injury excuse at QB.  The OL is horrendous but wouldn’t that be on the GM? But……he hired Nate Hackett.

He’s a well spoken Rex Ryan. When he talked about “embarrassing” QBs in the media, it’s such a joke. If you are going to talk like that, you better back it up all season.  The second a QB got a second look at them, he threw for 275 yards and 3 TDs and embarrassed them. 
 

He is 15-29 as a HC. Yeah he hasn’t had a QB, but the roster is loaded. Put up or shut up

If you watch enough Jets, you see poor in game management time and time again. It was poor clock management and in game calls that cost the Jets the playoffs in 2022. 

 

Then there are serious macro issues like bringing in rookie QBs without a mentor. Bringing in 40 year old QBs behind this oline w/ o a great back up plan. This silly plan to sign GB skill players, coordinators, many of whome are washed or overrated. 

 

The notion they are even entertaining the rushed return of Rogers  after that injury behind this garbage oline is insanity. He would get killed.

Chad Kelly must be very toxic for teams like the Jets/Giants not giving him a look.

 

Funny you mention that...he had a great season in the CFL before having a meltdown in the playoffs with his team being the #1 seed and heavy favorite to win it all.

 

Maybe he is a head case and scouts watching that playoff game watched a QB unravel when things started to go wrong and thought "nah, we're good".

I’m not making a full case for Salah, but to call that roster “loaded” is not accurate.  They have no QB and no OL.  This dooms their one WR with high potential and their one talented RB.  Their defense is loaded.  Their “roster” isn’t.

[TheFunPolice]

not only did he get benched, he got really benched. All the way down to #3
