What are your expectations for Wilson tonight? Will he put up the same kind of performance he did against GB? Will he finally look like a rookie? I'm leaning towards him having an off night. Just a gut feeling. Maybe he will be overconfident coming off the GB game. I just don't want to see him making terrible decisions or looking lost our there....feeling pressure that isn't there or not feeling pressure when it is there. The SOJ in me is preparing for an sub par night. Thoughts?
After watching both Fields and Wilson in preseason here is my take. Oh I forgot. Let me come clean. I was a Fields guy before the draft. Now, after watching both in preseason, I am glad we went with Wilson. Who knows, he may bust but to my untrained eye, he looked like he belonged. On the other hand, Fields really didn’t do anything to impress me. That said, since we went with Wilson, I couldn’t care leas on what Fields does in the NFL. I am a Wilson guy now. I expect him to have a decent performance that’s all
I'm not expecting anything, at least nothing that will matter. He should do at least as well against the Eagles as he did against the Packers who are a far better team but it won't mean much playing against the JV. If he has a shit night and throws a couple of interceptions it's just the pre season anyway, I'll let others get excited about it either way. The only thing that matters is what he does when he has first line defenses rushing him and covering his receivers with everyone on the field game planned for real.
What I'm hoping is that he makes it through the reps healthy. If it's the Jets starters against Eagles bubble players, I expect him to look as competent as he did against the Packers. I can see them taking a few shots downfield just to give him some confidence going into the season.
Hate to say this, but I don’t like my star rookie QB going out there in this shitty, weather beat muddy field, to play against a bunch of 2nd stringers with nothing to loose, going ape shit on an attempt to make the team.
Is he taking bad sacks first or is the kickoff team that atrocious while the defense gets shredded with all those kickoffs? Amazing Eagles punter?
I want him to continue to show confidence under pressure, and maybe go off script a couple times if plays break down to keep things going or to score. Above all, I want him to survive injury free (along with everyone else).
I was thinking passes to the 1 yrd line, then scramble backwards to the jets 5 yrd line.. then another 93 yrd bomb, then run it back.
