Things May have Gotten A Bit Easier

#1

Not this Sunday against Dallas, but possibly for Thursday's gae against the Jets.

Zach Wilson named as starting QB for Jets against the Lions.

https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/20...e-starter/

If Wilson remains the starter, I don't see them having too much success against us offensively.  Barring something unforseen, I don't know that he suddenly developed better pocket presence and decisionmaking.

Granted, Trevor Lawrence showed improvement over some time, but Lawrence had far more experience both in college and the #of NFL starts with which to further hone his skills.  I also think he has better coaching overal in the NFL than Wilson.

Not knocking Saleh as a coach, but he's a defensive guy, as opposed to being coached by three (3) former QBs like Lawrence is with Pederson, McCoy and Taylor (Cooter?).

This is good news.  White is not going to be ready to play against us, too much risk of a punctured lung.

Aside from him generally not being good enough to win due to the shortcomings that got him benched in the first place, how much prep time is he going to have?

All of this seems to have transpired over the course of a week.

There was some thought White might be able to play against Detroit until the news came out today.  Did Wilson get any reps with the starters?  Just yesterday he was moved to #2 QB over Flacco.  EVen getting through the Detroit game, he woul still have a short week to prepare for us.

Could happen. We're pretty good at that.

I still root for Charlie Brown to kick the ball.

Much like Charlie Brown, we're going to need an intervention from Spiderman to not have Wilson run for a hundred on us.

That TD run last year was the worst demonstration of DGAF I've ever seen from a defense.

Based on what we've seen this year, I don't think we'll see that from the defense against the Jets on Thursday.
