He sucks a lot but there is no universe where Wentz is worse than Zach Wilson.

Oh I don�t think his play is worse but he�s enough of an rear end in a top hat that things could just fall apart in totality. Like if he comes in and acts like the savior of the franchise and only wins 2 more games than Wilson then they may just draw and quarter him at midfield

For as bad as you might think Carson Wentz is, Zach might be the 2nd worst QB over the last 10 years. Only Josh Rosen is worse by EPA and CPOE.

I don’t think anyone’s job is in danger at this point, it’s just trying to salvage something of the season

But Wentz may make things worse, actually, and as a fan of chaos I’m all for it

For chaos I can get behind bringing in Wentz but as a serious option he's absurd. If they're going to try to salvage things try get Brissett or so other journeyman backup that isn't going to implode the locker room harder

Do you think things are not going to fall apart as the Jets go like 4-13 with the offense averaging 12 points and 2 turnovers a game?

There�s no good option but there�s basically nothing that could be worse for morale than a full season of Zack Wilson as the stater.

The Jets amazingly didn't have a turnover yesterday

After 5 drives, they had 1 yard of offense. They had 38 yards of offense at halftime. Outside of one 87 yard drive late in the 4th, they had 84 yards of offense over the rest of the game. They went 2-14 on 3rd downs.

They just have to get *anyone* to replace Zach Wilson. This is random dudes from other team's practice squads might give you a better chance territory.

And they still drat near won the game had Cobb came down with that hail mary. Replacement level QB play gets them in the playoff conversation but they have to do something this week because things start to spiral real quick.

I don't go quite that far. The offensive line is bad, possibly the worst in the league, and I don't think much of Hackett's playcalling.

But Zach Wilson loving sucks in a way that most QB's don't get to. Like Christian Ponder was a significantly better QB. Zach Wilson is closer to those no hoper 3rd stringer guys who got a couple of miserable starts like Luke Falk and Keith Null.

Seriously sunk cost going on with Zach. At least the Cards were willing to rip off the bandage with the Rosen misfire after one year, though having the #1 pick probably helped with that decision.

I just read a thing about how Dougie P was the one calling plays last year but this year he was having his OC "Press Taylor" (yes this is apparently a person's name (I assume nickname?)) call the plays this year. At halftime yesterday Doug decided to start calling plays again, which is why the offense started showing some life in the second half.

lmao, i appreciate what he's trying to do here but yea Dougie you're gonna need to keep playcalling duties this year

I keep going back to this but what else is he supposed to say? I guess you could go Parcells or whoever and just say your QB sucks but that probably won't help a whole lot. Not that anything will.

It's not really his decision is all, and what we expect him to be good at with the D he's...been pretty ok at.

Doug promoted Press from assistant QB coach to "passing game coordinator" just prior to the 2020 season and neither of them had a job 4 months later

No that dream is long dead by now. Although if it weren't the Jets would be the place for it to happen roster-wise I suppose.

The Jets do not seem to be the team that would consider this though even if he were only off for a half year instead of forever.

He was coming off of an ankle surgery last year and just wasn't fitting into the scheme, then had a catastrophic knee injury, and Staley made sure his first on-field action was in man press vs Tyreek Hill for 80% of the game

He was fine vs Tennessee
