00:03 - I mean, the only choice they have right now
00:05 is to play this kid.
00:07 They don't have a better choice.
00:08 Don't tell me I am so sick and tired
00:10 of hearing about Jacoby Brissett.
00:13 He sucks too.
00:14 - All right, so here's their plan.
00:16 It will be Zach Wilson going forward.
00:18 Tim Boyle will be added off the practice squad
00:20 within the next hour.
00:21 He'll be their backup.
00:22 He knows the offense.
00:23 He played in it with the Packers.
00:24 It's a West Coast scheme.
00:26 They're gonna go here with Wilson.
00:27 They'll be able to get an evaluation of the season now.
00:30 They have to get one more quarterback.
00:31 The team's called 53 plus 16,
00:34 the 53-man roster plus a 60-man practice squad.
00:36 They have to add another quarterback.
00:38 They'll do that within the next week.
00:39 But they wanna go with Zach Wilson going forward.
00:41 It's gonna be unbelievably difficult
00:44 at Dallas this Sunday on the road
00:46 against that Cowboy defense
00:48 that shut down and shut out the Giants in MetLife.
00:51 It was incredible what they did on Monday Night Football.
00:55 And this will be really difficult for the Jets.
00:56 And here's what's gonna happen.
00:58 The likely game plan's gonna be this.
01:00 And you saw some of this in the game.
01:02 Get out of his hands quickly.
01:04 Get him comfortable.
01:04 Get him accurate.
01:06 Rely on the run game.
01:07 Breesaw, by the way, he looked fantastic on those long runs.
01:09 He looked great with a lot of velocity.
01:11 Dalvin Cook out of the backfield,
01:13 they'll have a one-two punch,
01:14 but you can't just hide the quarterback all game.
01:17 You eventually have to throw it.
01:19 And they will do that.
01:20 And when they do that, that's when it becomes tough
01:22 because the Cowboys, Pharrell,
01:24 the deepest second in the National Football League.
01:26 They are legit six deep at corner.
01:28 They're good at safety.
01:29 Ferocious pass rush, obviously, with Michael Parsons
01:32 and Tank Lawrence on the other end.
01:33 That'll be very difficult.
01:35 What do we talk about?
01:36 By the way, go into the Jets game.
01:38 Two problems for the Jets.
01:39 The tackles, Dwayne Brown,
01:41 obviously 'cause of his age, near 40 years old,
01:43 and Becton moving a right tackle.
01:45 And you got Leonard Floyd on the other side,
01:47 and you saw what happened on that play
01:48 where Rodgers got hurt.
01:50 Now you go into that hostile environment in Dallas
01:52 where they bring that pass rush.
01:54 It's gonna be really, really hard.
01:56 But the Jets have to ask themselves this.
01:57 This is a tough matchup for Zach Wilson
02:00 in his first start of the year.
02:02 Gotta be careful of how hard you evaluate him.
02:03 It's probably gonna be ugly,
02:05 but they have to have another recourse here
02:08 with a veteran quarterback.
02:09 No matter how much they say they're going for Wilson,
02:11 at least they say they're going for the full season.
02:14 You and I know, and everyone watching
02:16 and listening on SportsGrid here,
02:17 they absolutely have to have a recourse here,
02:20 a fallback option in case Wilson can't do the job.
02:22 Because this roster, other than the tackle problem,
02:25 fantastic at running back, excellent receiver,
02:28 maybe the NFL's best defense.
02:30 They just have to function at offense,
02:32 and that's gonna be the biggest challenge for Nate Hackett
02:34 and his assistant coaches going
02:35 into this week's game against Dallas.
02:37 - Isn't that?
