    Our pass game was not really there this week. This isn't a theme yet, I hope Eli focuses on the win. We will get him the ball

    Until or if ZW takes the next step, you can’t have him throwing the ball carelessly when our run game and defense can win games for us.

    Moore has to understand the situation and let the season play out.

    Never thought the day would come where I can say the Jets have too many mouths to feed on offense lol. All these guys were high picks. They want the damn ball

    Amen to that. Under our prior GMs we had shit for draft and highly paid worthless free agents.

    And with Zach not playing great, manufacturing some short throws to Elijah Moore would be good for everyone.

    Im sorry, elijah moore hasn’t established himself to say anything or all the butt kissing he gets from jet fans. Hes a good solid player. Look at his statistics and look at the 31 other teams wr stats and you will see where he slots. Play ball and win games

    breece hall on the other hand

    Until Zach takes a step forward no one is going to eat but the RBs and TEs. Corey Davis gets some toss up balls. Passing attack can't sustain anyone right now. Look what happened to Garrett since Zach got back. He was breaking out before our eyes when flacco was passing 50 times a game. He's disappeared with Zach. These guys gotta decide if they want to win or want their stats (for now)

    I wonder if Elijah would be a low-key trade target for a competitor that is thin at WR?

    Compensation would be difficult to judge--I would do it all day for a 1 but that wont happen.

    Elijah will get his chances. Especially now that GW has a case of the drops.

    I assume you guys are joking :D When/if the OL and Zach get settled we will need weapons. Wilson and Moore are being wasted for now but hoping the time together works out down the road

    I wonder how much of this is them hiding Zach until Fant + Mitchell are back and Zach works off rust.

    Tough to say I mean with flacco they threw it at a record breaking pace. Now we only throw when we have to. Maybe you're right and they dialed it back after the OL injuries

    He's disappeared with Zach because that has been Saleh's and MLF's game plans

    The "I'm going to say something selfish by saying I'm not going to say something selfish" thing is always hilarious.

    Well regardless, at some point, Moore will get touches if. For no other reason we need to develop Zach/we’ll be behind at some point.

    The Fins went undefeated in 1972 passing the ball only 18.5 times per game. Since Zach, threw 18 passes today, Elijah would have never lasted on that Miami team. Today's receivers are accustomed to seeing the ball a lot more, so when they don't get targets, they start suffering from withdrawal. If the Jets running game continues to be this effective, maybe Moore will have to work more on his blocking than catching.

    In all seriousness, since the Jets do not have a balanced high powered offense yet, the WRs will have to be patient. If the day of Elijah does not come and he continues to mope, there is always Mims, who with his much larger frame, should be a better blocker than Moore.

    Yeah EM needs to have a long term mindset. He’s probably been frustrated by his season so far but he’s been doing his part. Between running into some tough defenses and the run game being great, the pass game really hasn’t needed to be great. The time will come. He needs to be ready.

    Am concerned about the lack of throws to Elijah.

    Am also a little concerned that Bailey Zapp threw for over 300yrds in his 3rd game & Zach hasn’t done that yet.

    Just sayin……..
