    That's a bit unusual, I guess they don't want to have a offense run through Flacco as he is pretty slow to move in the pocket. I guess they will have Zach on a short leash before they mix it up a bit

    It's a shame that it doesn't say "Mike White is QB1"

    Perhaps Saleh is done with his rah-rah "Zach will do better" routine. Put someone behind Wilson so there is a fire under his ass to play better.

    I mean, that says all you need to know. It’s unfortunate but we need to know what we have at QB in real time. I’d expect to see White in bs Buffalo once we’re down double digits and maybe even a short leash for Zach vs NE.

    Rooting for Zach but he simply cannot play the game. Too timid to be hit. Too short. Happy feet… it’s tough to watch.

    Probably tracking that way after another week of bad play

    I asked the same thing when Streveler was added to the 53. We have 4 QBs taking up roster space.

    Geno right now is so much better than Wilson.

    If they want to win they need to bench ZW when he is playing like he did today. We may not win but dam the team looks deflated when the guy is chucking the ball in the middel of the field... I mean looks alot like some other QBs we used to abuse

    Say Wilson’s leash is shorter without saying Wilson’s leash is shorter. It’s a shame, because we are qb play from being a much better team.

    Big deal. Mike White taking over from Zach Wilson? I'll believe it when I see it. Just more gas...

    If they're gonna make him inactive, maybe they should trade him if there's any market whatsoever for a vet backup, even if its a 2024 7th. I appreciate some of the moments they had with Joe, but especially given the state of the OL, they might be better off with White or Streveler if need be.

    It’s no secret, time and reps. If geno would have went somewhere more stable to start he would have had this season earlier.

    Honestly, to me this doesn't matter. Saleh has no answers. He's a good motivational coach, but when it came to a big game, his gameplan was to tell fans to be at the game early. The D was OK, but couldn't stop the Pats on 3rd down, in the first half, until they were in FG range. On O, 15 rushing attempts... MLF still hasn't a clue how to utilize the talent he's been given.

    As our O-line moves more and more to the IR, Statue Joe becomes less and less viable to do anything other than take a sack.

    It only took Geno 10 years

    Looks that way. That's probably why they activated Chris Streveler. But, then they deactivated him. Flacco history Tuesday I bet.

    It’s expected though, Geno has been in the NFL a lot longer than Wilson, so he is more relaxed as a starter.

    Perhaps we can use Flacco as a throw in in a bigger trade.
