Consolation prize - the Jets are screwed

Yes losing sucks. But in the grand scheme of this season i'm not sure what is better, winning that jets game with Rogers still intact or losing with the jets season being destroyed. Of course I lean win because winning is never bad. But considering the Jets could very well have challenged us for a playoff spot with Rogers around, Floyd's play may have been more important than winning.

 

And yeah, i'd prefer we go 17-0 but the truth is bills dolphins jets are all contenders and there is only so much room. The jets are almost certainly out of the way now.

Jets are like the Dilfer era bucs.  Extraordinary D with a caretaker QB.  Im not sure Wilson is even a caretaker level QB yet but he walked away with a win while our galaxy brain QB turned the ball over 4 times.  I guess we'll see in the coming weeks.  If the Jets can keep that level of play on D, wilson isn't going to need to do much more than 13-20 points a game

As much as Monday sucked for a Bills fan. It was way worse for the Jets. Seeing your super bowl hopes disappear 5 minutes into the season was sad. For them of course. But f them. I thought it was hilarious.

 

always funny when someone suffers a season ending injury, said a very good person

That defense will keep them in every game. Those RBs will move the chains. Garrett Wilson will help Zach Wilson on some plays. 

 

While losing Rodgers obviously hurts, it allows them to get away for 3 WR sets and lean into a more conservative offensive style...which may be what they are stronger at anyway. 

At least with the Jets you can see the pathway to success. Run the ball a lot with Hall and Cook. Sprinkle in some Play action to Garrett Wilson, play good defense.

 

Given that Allen appears to still be firmly in idiot mode, what exactly is the Bills alternate path to success?

Seeing how the Jets responded to the worst sort of adversity, versus how Buffalo reacted to having the game handed to them on a silver platter, tells you a lot about both teams

I really don't think the rest of the jets team played that game any better than they would have with Rodgers. I dont think they "responded" at all. They just took advantage of what Allen gave them.

I'm not going to lose sleep or sympathize for the Jets. We lost our HOF caliber pass rusher last year.  Deal with it fireman Ed.

I mean I wouldn't say they are for sure screwed...Wilson was a recent #2 overall pic...yes he struggled early, but it doesn't mean he can't keep evolving as a player and growing, and he has now beaten us twice in the past 2 seasons.  

 

Am I optimistic that Wilson can lead them to the playoffs in a tough division and AFC...no...but I am also not going to dismiss it.  Jimmy G who is mediocre starter led the Niners to a SB and almost another one because of a great D and run game.  Jets IMO are going to try now and follow more the Niners model and get their talented RB room going and try and keep Wilson from having to carry the team at all.  

 

Although, the Jets OL is not very good, so its not gonna be easy either.  Just saying, if Wilson can just be average, with that roster they can still be a very tough opponent.
