Hell even just keeping Mike White there would've been a hell of a lot better than what they've done.
Mike White was basically as good as Zach people just like him cause he replaced Zach last year but he also sucked.
He was not great the games after getting his ribs smashed but when he was healthy he was pretty good
lmao he is 2-5 as the Jets starting QB, across 8 games for them, he amassed numbers of 62 completion%, 2100 passing yards, 8 TDs and 12 INTs; he was also injury prone af and could barely handle playing 3-4 games in a row without an injury.
he had two outlier games against the bears (worst defense in the league at the time) and bengals (that was largely YAC) that boost his numbers (account for 33% of his passing yardage, 75% of his TD passes and 16% of his INTs...). he played one game post ribs injury and it was barely different from how he looked when he ultimately got benched in 2021 against buffalo.
the bar was so so low, this guy was not good lmao jets fans were just so happy that they actually had a qb that could complete a forward pass consistently that they pretended he was.
Idk I saw Mike white get like 40 points on the bears last year, Zach has never done that
Mike White signed to be a backup in Miami, closer to where he grew up.
Going into the season there was serious concerns around Tua, so it also seemed like he would have a better job getting starter minutes.
