  • Manning: Broncos trade will be good for Zach Wilson

    Manning: Broncos trade will be good for Zach Wilson

    Former Bronco great Peyton Manning has revealed that Zach Wilson will have a better career in Denver based on the carryover and unique system Sean Payton offers.

    The Jets traded him and a seventh-round pick (No.256) in exchange for a sixth-round pick (No.203) ahead of the NFL Draft and it was no secret Wilson’s New York tenure ended in turmoil.

    However, Manning claims it was wrongdoing to switch coordinators many times throughout Wilson’s specific tenure in New York and that generally, Tom Moore worked with Manning in Indianapolis.

    Wilson completed 57 percent of his passes and threw for 300-plus yards only three times in 34 games.

  • Will Zach Wilson Be a Jet Next Season?

    Will Zach Wilson Be a Jet Next Season?

    According to sources, Zach Wilson will not play in the season finale between the rival New England Patriots this upcoming Sunday in Foxborough, MA. This comes off the heels of suffering a mild head injury during Week 15’s brutal loss to the Miami Dolphins.

    Regardless, Wilson has faced a ton of scrutiny from the media and fans over the past year regarding his ability to play and lead the Jets.

    Aaron Rodgers was expected to start and help the Jets reach the postseason, but because of a Torn Achilles, that ruled out all possibilities of that happening. Wilson, meanwhile, played and talked with a cocky attitude before the season even started expressing at one point his job disdain for second-stringing Rodgers.

    Wilson recorded a very low productive season in New York which is why he might suit up again for the Jets but reflecting back to 2021, the quarterback has a rotten touchdown-to-interception ratio, completing far more turnovers than Garrett Wilson celebrations.

    The tools are there in New York. The only problem is where to go from here. At BYU, Wilson finished with an adjusted completion percentage of 80.3% and atop his class in deep yards (1286). If there is one notion that does not scream loud incessantly, it is that New York is tough, and R.J. Barrett might after all burst out of his shadow, finally.

    The main focus is Wilson, though. He has periodic flashes and one can only hope Jets GM Joe Douglas and Robert Saleh make the right move because solely their future depends on it, after being extended another year by owner Woody Johnson.

  • Three Bold QB Trade Scenarios

    Three Bold QB Trade Scenarios

    The NFL Trade Deadline is approaching, and what better way to stroke the canvas and begin work on the top three quarterback trade scenarios.

    3. Kirk Cousdins (Commanders)

    Cousins reunites with his former team that drafted him below Robert Griffin III in the 2012 NFL Draft and shifts to change after an abysmal October from Sam Howell, who cannot be fully trusted with Jacoby Brissett to lead Ron Rivera and the Washington Commanders to a Super Bowl championship.

    The Minnesota Vikings do not embrace Cousins as the starting quarterback and with a closely expiring contract. It is worth being expendable with Cousins and retrieving the best possible return.

    2. Zach Wilson (Vikings)

    Add Zach Wilson to the Minnesota Vikings’ luxury mix, and Justin Jefferson and Jordan Addison will have a fair shake of exposure on the down seams. Wilson is a former No.2 overall pick with the potential to play in a market calling for a dual threat of his possible magnitude.

    The New York Jets can likely acquire many draft picks and continue increasing their stock in young defensive talent in Will McDonald, Quinnen Williams, Sauce Gardner, etc. If the Jets want to be ballsy and intelligent, they need to hold onto Wilson or utilize him on multiple offensive talents or the trade about to be shared.

    1. Russell Wilson (Jets)

    Russell Wilson, might I add, has been down this alley before. Electric crowd, impactful defense surrounded by him, and wait for it. National bright lights and soaring winds high enough to scream, New York.

    Russell will be playing in a new environment sometime soon. He will defer to his side of the field and play Jets football, days after Joe Namath stated he has basically had enough of Zach Wilson. Who could blame him? Jets fans?

    Judgment Day is near, and the Jets could not end their season any better by at least acquiring Wilson as a starter or backup. His days are outnumbered in Denver, and it would not be shocking if the Denver Broncos said goodbye to yet another quarterback not as good as Peyton Manning or John Elway.
