Looks like Arian Smith was open on the last sack and was the second read: https://x.com/NFL/status/1977412499285700910 Fields winds up but pulls back. Freeze frame at the 0:02. Looks left, covered, looks middle, Smith is there, winds up and pulls back. Fucking brutal.
(as I just posted in the NFL thread) - It is painful watching players like Mac Jones doing a decent job for the niners, someone that was signed on a 2 year deal for $4m guaranteed (compared to the $30m the Jets are paying Fields) - and just for fun I saw that Rodgers is getting $13m for the year so he is also getting less that the Jets are paying.
Fields is who he’s always been…we’ve all seen it and we all called it. Shit, even Borat sees the light He is a fucking TERRIBLE QB…no…honestly I can’t call him a QB…he is a great runner who has a strong arm but he is NOT a QB. He can not do the simple fucking basic things any QB should be able to do. I would be fucking happy if we just cut him this week, eat the fucking cap, and move on. If AG believes any of his fucking accountability bullshit talk, that is the only action I will accept. I guess benching him would be good too, but at this point, there is nothing left to see…he sucks. He always sucked. He continues to suck. Dude can’t see the field, can’t pull the trigger, doesn’t see open guys, has a long delivery, can’t throw with anticipation…even without watching the all 22 I saw open guys and he couldn’t do it. I don’t want to watch him play anymore. Put it Tyrod, shit put in Cook and see if he can do anything…how much worse can it be? I get he may throw picks or whatnot, but Fields gives us ZERO chance to win….dude couldn’t engineer a 40 yard drive with 3 minutes left for a winning FG. Couldn’t even do that. He has to go. And if AG continues to play him, then he has to go also as there is no good answer to playing him other than we are purposefully tanking.
This is the one that hurts the most though: https://x.com/nyjetsfansonly/status/1977426064738603396 If he gets it to GW quickly, we probably have 1st down at 35. A couple of runs/QB sneaks to waste the clock and we have a 48-50 yard FG to win with Folk who hasn't missed all year.
I think that proves one or both of the following: Egstands offense is designed for a pocket passer and/or they’re telling Fields not to run for reasons. Either way it’s just atrocious coaching combined with a terrible personnel move that sets the team back yet another season. I think Wilson is gonna break at some point. I don’t know when, but once he does he’ll go nuclear to get away from this miserable franchise.
Can't throw with anticipation. Always late. And then off target probably from trying to catch up. Brutal
If that's the case, then we have a completely incompetent front office. Fields has never been that guy, so to not keep the player you had that fits that type of scheme or to not go out and acquire another QB that fits that type of scheme is just setting the entire season up to be the disaster that it has become.
Was there any report after the game on Wilson? The way his arms stiffened after that contact his head made with the ground, I kind of assumed concussion protocol.
He is dealing with a knee, looks like he will be doing MRI too according to his presser and this tweet: https://x.com/Connor_J_Hughes/status/1977428546386837925. We may be completely fucked very soon. Well, even more completely than we are today.
I don’t think he’s having a great time. He also had a couple drops including a key one at the end of the game on the sideline so he also needs to shut the fuck up with the complaining. https://x.com/ZackBlatt/status/1977425842595889483
It's more or less what he's done the entire time he's been here. I doubt it's going to change anytime soon.
Fields was playing like that deliberately. This week they asked him a question about taking too long to throw, he reacted very childish. Instead of just acknowledging that he has to get the ball out quick, he criticized the question and the stat “time to throw” and seemed very annoyed by that anyway then he goes into the game and takes a million sacks. He was trying to prove a point
