    Yes I did, the moves the ball 20-20, when D tightens up, he can’t make plays. 100% Difference between him and Brady

    Is it because MW can't make plays.... or MLF can't draw up plays that work??

    The best last about all this is if Berrios catches that TD in Minnesota no one is bitching about White. Say that out loud. Another guy drops the ball and it leads to bitching about the guy who threw it.

    . Jets need Wilson to be the guy, White is not the guy.

    I need to fuck Ana de Armas but it's really not gonna happen :)

    No, you didn't. I asked you for an example of another QB like Mike White. Surely he's not the only one in NFL history like that

    I don't think Wilson is afraid to get hit. He got clobbered running for a TD against Miami. Remember that? If anything he sometimes has a tendency to take hit he shouldn't have to.

    in the immortal words of the woman who destroyed tom brady's self esteem, one "cannot fucking throw the ball and catch the ball at the same time"

    That’s wonderful, now show me the corresponding number of TD and wins which is the only fucking thing that matters., extrapolate that. The three there are miles ahead. I like Mike a lot but all these discussions don’t get us any closer to the playoffs unless we win the game.

    Both, Our struggles getting into the end zone did not start with MW. I am shocked with the pas MLF is getting.

    In 3 games - White has 4 tds (3 throwing, 1 rushing) and could have had a few more (Berrios drop, Wilson stepped out by a toe, Davis streaking got caught from behind)…

    and that was with 2 games in bad weather and going up against maybe the best defense in football in Buffalo. A game where Josh Allen also had trouble too due to the conditions.

    No reason to hate on Mike White at this point. If anything he is showing promise.

    He has 4 more games… Jets are in the hunt, exciting times for us fans!!!

    I hope and pray Mike and the Jets win the next game. And the one after that. That is the most important thing. We have a really good chance. If not, forget all these comparisons, yards, stats over stats, who won the game with Zach versus now blah blah blah. This is not fantasy football.
    The only fact that matters to me is that we improved significantly in the passing game yet we are struggling getting into the end zone and winning games. So let’s not start pointing fingers at everyone else or rationalize how we won before. Just win the games in front of you and fuck the rest. I don’t care if Mike throws for 400 yards or fifty, as long as we win.
    We need to make the playoffs and we shouldn’t give a fuck how we do it.

    I don’t hate Mike, I like him a lot. I wanted the change. But I’m tired of all the stats discussion while in fact we are loosing ground in the playoff race.
    We need this team to really rally around Mike and win games. Screw the rest and screw the stats.

    Even as shitty as Mike White is, a QB that's only good between the 20s of course, he's still putting up more points per drive than the other guys :)

    Not sure why you're asking me that... that's not the comment I replied with stats to argue against.

    My mistake. I was attempting a reply to another thread and got everything mixed up.
    Some people here think I'm against Mike, nothing could be further from the truth. I was first to bat to make the change during the second half of the NE game. Perfect timing IMO.
    But for whatever reason, we need to leverage his better passing into wins. This team needs to raise the bar and rally around Mike for a playoff run. We are too good not to make it. We lost a golden opportunity against NE with Zach, and one against the Vikings with Mike. I think with Q and White we are good enough to make a strong run to the playoffs.

    And if Carter happens to not fumble there against the Bills it was sure looking like a comeback was in full throttle.

    A couple bounces away from being 3-0 and looking great in all 3 games and we'd have a national story on our hands.

    While there is some truth there, MLF didnt fumble when we had the best drive of the game, or the sick sequence of events with Flacco for another fumble. CJ fourth down offsides was a killer too.
    Thus, Mike is the starter, Zach is the back up, and Flacco will be inactive this week. Makes sense to me.
    The real question is.....what constitutes a good, great or elite winning ratio and corresponding scoring ratio. i have not seen this metric used universally before

    This fanbase is like the opposite of those adorable pitbull rescue videos where the dogs are fucking thrilled just to be leaving the shelter. It's like some people don't remember the bullshit we went through for the last decade and things should just be perfect immediately.
