i can't believe this sub is still sticking with the narrative that a dobbs, wentz, winston, or dalton would have made the jets better lmao they probably win the patriots game and nothing else changes.

  • the cowboys game was a blowout that even aaron rodgers would've lost
  • patriots, one or all of them win it
  • chiefs, zach wilson played as good as you could hope and still lost
  • chargers blow out and overall display of complete offensive incompetence with a rare special teams blunder as well
  • raiders, wilson accounted for 300 total yards lol team scored a rushing TD which honestly would've probably ended it, but penalty called it back
  • bills blowout
  • dolphins blowout (maybe this one? cause if boyle doesn't throw a pick 6 before half you're starting the third quarter down 10-6 and picked off tua twice).

so sorry, maybe two more wins and i'm being generous saying they could have won yesterday.

  • the offensive coordinator is the worst in the league
  • the offensive line is on their 167th different alignment
  • receivers don't get open outside of garrett (and conk who is mainly a checkdown) because of point 1 and 2
  • dropsies from the receivers is an issue as well if they do manage to get open
  • they cannot establish a run game because of point 1 and 2
  • they are penalized at an alarming rate negating any good offensive progress majority of the time as well lol because of point 2 (lots of holds)

the jets qbs are bad, but all the above is true as well and swapping in another backup-level player isn't going to magically fix these things. this sub continues to pretend though that other backups would navigate through all this and lead the jets to the playoffs and i can't understand it as someone who watches how bad they're failing at every aspect offensively. only aaron rodgers would make a meaningful impact because he would ignore the OC 95% of the time.

How many of those blowouts became blowouts because the offense couldn't do anything, leading to the defense getting worn out? Marginally better QB play wouldn't turn them into a 10-1 squad but it would give them a fighting chance in at least some of those contests.

You’re right, why bother trying eh? It was already into the first game, might as well wait till next year.

like i mentioned elsewhere, lost 3 after game 1 and then won 3 in a row and were 4-3 at the deadline. there were moves to be made at the deadline, but a qb upgrade was not; zach wilson was not holding this team back like he was last year. qb is barely a top 3 issue with the offense right now, i'm telling you it doesn't matter what backup qb you have in there.

Tbh yeah, the fans hate it but if the Jets want to make the most out of Rodgers next year they have to tank this year. They're just in a really bad qb situation where they spent a lot of money and draft picks to get a maybe good QB for 2-3 years, and then they lost one of those years

Dalton!

You made my day. Everything around Rodgers is always a circus. But suggesting the Red Rifle is the answer may just take the cake.
