Impossibly Perfect Sphere posted:Please remember that just because a bunch of players were drafted high it does not actually guarantee they are good at playing football in the NFL. Is this about the Jets? I was going to say in the last thread that even if all of Sauce, Wilson (Garrett), Johnson, Hall, etc., are good NFL players, there is going to be an adjustment period for them and that's going to make the early stretch even tougher. The Jets can still be on the upswing and struggle a lot early on because of that. Professor Funk fucked around with this message at 17:55 on Sep 6, 2022 |

fsif posted:If we want a more contemporary example, you did just say that calling Zach Wilson bad means that you had your brain broke by Bills fans' wishful thinking. Hold on now, fsif. you're twisting his words. he said it was way too early to give up on Wilson despite your post basically treating Wilson being a bust as a fait accompli.

fsif posted:The Rotoworld blurb and this Connor Hughes hit led me to believe he was 100%, but not 110%. Anyway, if he's not healthy then that's that, but it's still odd that Saleh would do A Gamesmanship for a very unlikely Week 1 start but doesn't leave himself gamesmanships on the table for Weeks 2 and 3. Well, they're not putting Wilson on short-term IR so he can practice (at least I'm pretty sure I read that). So Saleh could be doing A Gamesmanship by saying he'll be back in Week 4 because the team can walk that back whenever they want, right? I'm mostly joking. I think it's a combo of things: (1) the meniscus is fine or close to it but the bone bruise is taking longer than expected, like Metapod said, (2) they want to give him a week of practice time when he comes back, and, most importantly, (3) they just shat the bed on communicating the injury timeline and should have said 4-6 weeks from the jump. Also plz don't get your football news from Rotoworld blurbs. Professor Funk fucked around with this message at 19:50 on Sep 7, 2022 |

fsif posted:I saw it then cross-checked with a beat reporter that said, "The Jets have insisted from the very beginning to wait until Zach Wilson is 100% before he returns to the field—apparently that's not totally true. Robert Saleh said on Wednesday that they actually want him to be 110%." Come on! How else was I supposed to interpret that? Oh I was referring more to the bit about it being a stealth benching and that Wilson had a bad camp (which is something flatly refuted by pretty much every Jets beat guy).

Meanwhile in Jets land https://twitter.com/willpa11/status/1568187949522604034?s=21 It would be nice if the Jets could develop a mid-round lineman for once. I assume there’s gonna be a ton of 12 personnel on Sunday.

Love to have to start a 4th round rookie right before playing Myles Garrett, TJ Watt, and Trey Hendrickson. Fant should be solid enough at LT, at least, and having (1) AVT at RG and (2) a totally reworked TE room should at least take some pressure off of Mitchell. But again, at some point the Jets are going to have to develop a mid-round offensive lineman like other teams seemingly do on a near annual basis.

TheBizzness posted:Trying to remind myself not to overreact to Week 1. My biggest take away is that Stafford looks washed AF though. Yeah Week 1 is always super weird, but Stafford looked, if not totally washed, completely uninspiring. It's crazy to think that the Bills could actually improve from last night just by...not turning the ball over four times.

I also forgot that prior to that game the Jets had a decade long stretch of not returning a punt for a touchdown. That also rules.

In all seriousness, Im expecting a comfortable Ravens win just because Lamar is Lamar and he can neutralize the Jets’ biggest strength (the defensive line). But the Ravens are also going to be without some key starters (and even if Dobbins or Peters play, they’ll be limited), and week 1 is always weird, so I wouldn’t be shocked if it was a pretty competitive game.

Rooting for the outcomes that would cause the most chaos in this subforum: 1. Joe Flacco picks the Ravens apart and looks far better than Zach Wilson en route to a blowout Jets win 2. Tua gets totally flummoxed by Belichick and throws 3 INT, including one on an underthrown deep ball to Tyreek 3. Patriots offense looks horrible, but Patriots eek out a *rolls dice* 14-9 win.
