    I try to have a optimistic outlook with the Jets even though they tend to fail miserably.

    This team finally looked SB caliber on paper and with the right mix and Aaron Rodgers it had big potential.

    Now we are back to the beginning or are we?

    Can Zach Wilson be 1985 Jim McMahon, 2000 Trent Dilfer, 2002 Brad Johnson esque in today's NFL and just do his job so the defense can carry this team to the promised land?

    It's a pipe dream but also there is untapped potential and riding a confident wave with your team makes a big difference.

    We really will need a historic defensive effort on the level of those 85' and 00' Ravens to make the big game now.

    Is it doable?

    No, it’s not doable.

    I think round 2 of the playoffs is doable. As long as there is a link between the NFL and sports betting, l don't think there will be another boring Super Bowl team.

    Can Zack Wilson be like Kirk Cousins?

    If Zach comes anywhere close to looking like Jim McMahon I will have serious wood.

    Yeah but the Jets are anything but boring. Their defense has star power and they have young studs in many spots. On offense too with Wilson and Hall

    Really just Zach Wilson is literally a wildcard.

    You can have the most exciting offensive scheme and it will be boring with an extremely limited QB. That's what our wildcard looked like to me last night.

    He won 4 straight last year.

    Then he faced New England.

    He won 1 more game all season.

    *Narrator: No, he cannot do it!*
