    The Jets Medical staff, led by Dr. Brigham Young VII, has not cleared Mike White to play this Sunday against the Lions. Zach Wilson will start.

    I really think they don't want to risk losing him for the last 2 games.

    I’m not gonna say what I think because I will get thrown under the bus. Let’s just hope he and the team can pull this out. And please make Strev the backup at this pt no more Sleepy Joe

    That doesn't make a lot of sense though because all games are big ATM. And this game has shootout written all over it. DO they really believe Zach gives us the best chance? White seemed confident he could play yesterday. So the CS/FO are the ones that are benching White.

    Do they really feel like he couldn't play well enough with his ribs - or are seeing something at practice? It could be that simple, but deep down things aren't adding up. He should at least be QB2. Heck, even Brock Purdy played with bruised ribs on a 4 day turnaround.

    This feels like a Owner/GM decision. No way Saleh agreed to this.

    Plus we'll probably play them like we played the Vikings. Take away the deep stuff and force Detroit to beat us underneath.

    yea traditionally you are right but they are really surging.

    Idk I guess we will see, I hope the defense can shut them down of course since we gotta roll with a backup at QB

    Huge game for Zach. If he keeps our playoff hopes alive he’ll win people over quickly. If he bombs, and the playoff dream dies, things could get very messy.

    Come on Zach, stay frosty.

    Cant allow Flacco to see the field again, hope the staff has the guts to elevate Streveler to QB2 or at the very least to activate him so if Zach has to come out there is a Flacco alternative.

    well this game can either make the off-season a bit easier for the jets OR that much more difficult.
    ugh this team never gets a break at QB.

    Slight correction, he sucked ass almost 4 weeks ago. He hasn't played for a month, and we will find out soon if he sucks right now or took a step forward. We should pray it's the later, and it is certainly not outside of realm of possiblity.

    Man, if Zach gets off to a bad start, the crowd is going to take a giant, steaming, figurative dump all over him.

    The way Detroit DLine played recently, the absolute worst thing you can have at QB against them is immobile QB who holds onto the ball long. In other words, Flacco. I hope Streveler got some reps, because Flacco cannot see the field if Zach has to come out.

    I was at a game where they cheered when Boomer got hurt pretty badly. His family was at the game too. I was so embarrassed. There's a reason why Jets fan are compared to Eagles fans.
