Wow, Russell Wilson is not good

jvm52106 : 10/20/2024 9:05 pm
At all.. How long do the Steelers stick with him watching passes way way off target.

Knew to get away and make a change. It's why they were willing to eat so much cap and move on. In here we still had a few posters bring up his stats as if they were meaningful to his actual play. He's washed and he's been washed for years now. Unfortunately for them, Fields isn't a good passer, either, but has the scrambling to offset that. Even so, they are still limited as a team with those two at QB.
Have to add

that this is his first start this season & he got hurt before the season started. The more he plays the more comfortable he will get. But let's see how long he starts or do they go back to Fields.

Steelers have almost none of their cap committed to QBs. They can easily move on from Wilson and Fields next year. They also smartly moved on immediately from Pickett. That's what a smart organization does.
Are you guys just realizing this?

He hasn't been good since Seattle.
his saving grace  
Giantsfan79 : 10/20/2024 9:31 pm : link
is that he's cheap
Hasn't been good in awhile.

Tomlin is a GREAT coach, but a head-scratcher to put Wilson in this week to say the least.

He wanted to know early whether Wilson has anything left. I suspect they go back to Fields soon in next few weeks.

And gamble the obligatory - having us on the schedule allows some risk taking.

Is still light years better than anyone we have at the position on our roster

To throw a TD pass in 15 more home games than Jones has done tho
Steelers  
Toth029 : 10/20/2024 9:54 pm : link
Have won because they can play defense, and they haven't really played anybody great necessarily, although I'm in the belief the league is lacking for great teams right now. They scored 32 vs Vegas yet their offense had under 300 yards (near 200 rushing). Takeaways bringing shorts fields and also had a blocked punt for a score.
Jets....yikes

looking good, good thing they picked up Adams for that playoff run of theirs
A lot of BBIers were begging for this guy.

Some still wish the Giants had signed him.

If he were with the Giants, a lot of people would be pining for DJ. Be careful what you wish for.
lol. Some of you guys are just as

Bad as the giants talent evaluators. He isn’t what he once was but he would have made a difference on this giants team which is more than can be said about jones, lock, or devito. I for one miss expecting to compete for a victory. I’d take him.

Russell Wilson tonight looks like Johnny Unitas compared to what we've got going on.
Can always count on the Jets to bail us out.  
bceagle05 : 10/20/2024 11:03 pm : link
Maybe Douglas will give us a first round pick for Slayton or Hyatt.
Long way to go  
Blue100 : 10/20/2024 11:04 pm : link
Only 2 TD's needed
And this Pittsburgh defense  
bceagle05 : 10/20/2024 11:05 pm : link
will be a real treat for us next Monday.
Wilson thus far...  
bw in dc : 10/20/2024 11:05 pm : link
228 yards passing, 8+ YPA, 2 TDs/0 INTs.

The Steelers have 30 points, btw.

Maybe that's good afterall...
Effort  
Toth029 : 10/20/2024 11:06 pm : link
And maximizing their talent. That's what coaches like Tomlin does.

Meanwhile in Giants land, with Brian Daboll...
Wilson is shot. Dunzo. He was done in Denver too.  
Anakim : 10/20/2024 11:07 pm : link
Watch us sign him next year to be our starting QB....

What was the Giant's QB line today?
I'm not watching the game  
santacruzom : 10/20/2024 11:07 pm : link
But man, 3 TDs at home in prime time is something we haven't seen since my kids were born.

Since you asked... ;)

14/21, 99 yards, 4.7 YPA, 0 TDS/ 0 INTs, 16+ QBR.

In his last two weeks combined, Jones's QBR is 35.
Rodgers  
Toth029 : 10/20/2024 11:12 pm : link
Is toast and so is Joe Douglas.
He's a lot better than Jones  
Sean : 10/20/2024 11:16 pm : link
Wish he was signed instead of Lock. Daniel had to be the starter though.

Banks : 10/20/2024 11:17 pm : link
He looks rusty, short on several throws. That said, fields has looked like he's never thrown a football at times. They were smart to make the change. I don't get why the media supports fields so much. He's looked terrible despite the record
That Jet defense looking 1985 Bears-esque tonight.  
Dave in Hoboken : 10/20/2024 11:26 pm : link
Davante Adams looking amazing, too. The Jets are Super Bowl bound!
29-61 under Joe Douglas.

Hiring of Arthur Smith was a great move by Tomlin, too. Despite poor play from his quarterbacks in Atlanta, he had top rated rushing attacks which feeds on playaction. He knows how to design effective offenses and he did all he can with a limited QB like Fields. Wilson is a vet, smart but also not what he used to be. Tomlin is a winner. Let's remember he made the playoffs with Kenny Pickett and Mason Rudolph.

Arthur Smith is a guy that could work as has coach within the Giants' construct.
Pittsburgh scored 37 points...  
bw in dc : 10/20/2024 11:47 pm : link
with a QB they are paying $1.2M dollars to be on the team.

Our $160M QB has scored 99 points in 7 games thus far.

And yet we have posters saying “at least we didn’t sign Wilson!”

To be clear, Wilson isn’t good anymore, it he is clearly better than Daniel Jones. Pittsburghs QBs are much cheaper and much better than what the Giants have.

Thats because the Jets suck dick just as much as the Giants

I put nothing past this organization with Jones. At this point, they need to keep getting embarrassed.

You might be onto something with in house though. Mara could hire Vrabel and promote Cowden (worked together in TEN) or Brown. Vrabel also allows Bowen to stay most likely.

That might be the compromise for Mara.
