RobbRiddick Posted September 7, 2022 Share Posted September 7, 2022 When Saleh never looks or sounds like he's in control. I was watching a press conference with Miami's own McD the other day and it struck me that despite looking like someone who'd fix your cable he does come across as someone who knows what he's doing and is in control. The results will tell, but Saleh already seems like a man drowning. Wouldn't be surprised to see them go after Payton in the off season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Browns have a better roster and Brissett is a decent QB for a backup. At this point I think he is better than Flacco. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even Nathan Peterman thinks its silly for the Bills message board to call out other teams difficultly finding a franchise QB. 1 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The tough guy rah rah act worked in SF when he had a loaded roster as DC. As HC now it just looks like he's in over his head. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ethan in Cleveland Posted September 7, 2022 Share Posted September 7, 2022 42 minutes ago, RoyBatty is alive said: It can be nasty and they can also be a non-event. Most elder active people have partially torn meniscus and most arent even aware of it. And the literature - surgery vs no surgery shows no difference in outcomes at least for the general public. In NBA seems pretty routine to get surgery but lots more jumping there obviously. A bit more variable in NFL it seems. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FilthyBeast Posted September 7, 2022 Share Posted September 7, 2022 1 hour ago, Coach Tuesday said: He’s basically been benched. They seem to think Flacco can run the offense better. Love it. Would be a very Doug Marrone like move if that's the case to bail on a 1st round pick QB after barely playing a full season worth of games. Also don't think Flacco is nearly as good as Kyle Orton circa 2014 at this point as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Airseven Posted September 7, 2022 Share Posted September 7, 2022 He has a knee issue that unsurprisingly is taking a little longer to heal. He'll be back in October. The news here is that we're now highlighting the fact Jets went with Flacco as backup again which is brutal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't matter who runs the offense better now, they need to put Wilson out there ASAP and see if he shows signs of development. Leaving Flacco the starter would be like if the Bills had left Barkley as the starter after we blew out the Jets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Jets should sign him to a 10 year extension. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Flacco looks awful he can then insert Wilson and anything better will get the team and fans behind him. If anyone questions why he didn't start the season with him he can hide behind the injury excuse. Seen that before, sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg S Posted September 7, 2022 Author Share Posted September 7, 2022 Flacco 2-11 in his last 13 starts and hasn't won a game since 2019. Jets fans should be ordering those playoff tickets any day now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsFan4 Posted September 7, 2022 Share Posted September 7, 2022 2 hours ago, Coach Tuesday said: He’s basically been benched. They seem to think Flacco can run the offense better. Love it. Why would they announce he’s out for at least 3+ weeks if they were just benching him? If he were being benched I’d think they would’ve just said that he won’t be back for week one. Then they’d see how flacco did week one (what if he’s terrible?), see how Wilson did in practice etc. before deciding the week 2 starter. i think the most logical guess for this is a setback in his recovery. Especially considering the Jets planned to put him through a full workout the other day to see how his knee responded. Im guessing that his knee didn’t respond well to the workout. I know when I injured my knee the recovery was pretty bumpy. Too much physical activity could cause setbacks. I think Wilson only had that surgery less than a month ago iirc?

The news here is that we're now highlighting the fact Jets went with Flacco as backup again which is brutal. And a non-contact one at that. That has to be pretty disconcerting. It's one thing to have it rolled up on or clipped, it's another to have it just give way on a cut. I think they are doing the right thing. It's a long season. This is likely not their year. Let him fully mend before sending him back out there. With the coin owners are putting out these days, teams have to play the long game. Especially with QB1.

About what I would expect of any team's fans dealing with this... Nonetheless, some of my favorites, all direct quotes: Tom Brady has been in the league for like 30 years and never suffered a self-inflicted bone bruise. Well, to be fair, he did try to change direction while he was running. That has ruined many football careers Mike White must be rolling in Flacco's grave Meniscus is the the new Mononucleosis, oh well. Like Leonardo DiCaprio, we've never actually left Shutter Island. I've been talking about the 2027 draft for a while now. Hop on board! .... There's just so many to choose from.....

None in that thread, but there IS a separate thread simply titled "Josh Allen", which is four pages devoted to lamentation. As far as I can tell, a Josh Allen thread just like it pops up every few months. I've said this before, but I have to reiterate it: Going from 17 years of Brady DIRECTLY into the Josh Allen era has gotta be ROUGH on Jets and Dolphins fans. And imagine being four days from the opener and getting the news that you get to spend a quarter of your season watching 37 year old Joe Flacco under center? I would say I feel sorry for Jets fans, but I definitely don't...because I've MET Jets fans. Edited September 7, 2022 by Logic 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
