Jets quarterback Zach Wilson believes that he suffered a PCL injury in Sunday’s blowout loss to the Patriots. After the game, Wilson told reporters that he heard a “pop” and that his knee felt “loose” (via The Athletic).

Wilson’s description would be consistent with a PCL injury, but doctors won’t know for sure until he undergoes an MRI today. The injury occurred in the second quarter, when he was tackled by Patriots linebacker Matt Judon.
Depending on the severity, a PCL injury may or may not be a season-ender. In this case, the Jets would probably err on the side of caution. Gang Green is 1-5 after yesterday’s loss, so it’s unlikely that their late-season games will matter much.
Wilson completed 6-of-10 passes for 51 yards before his early exit. The Jets then turned things over to backup Mike White for his NFL debut. White — who figures to be the Jets’ QB1 for at least a little while — went 20-of-32 for 202 yards, one touchdown, and two interceptions.
Marcus Maye might want to reconsider not asking for a trade after that 54-13 debacle.
Is this new coach any better than Gase? D specialist allowing a 50 burger by a rookie QB?
yes. process of elimination.
You have lower standards than I thought. This whole Jets season has been undisciplined, flags, no blocking, no receiving & no D. That’s on the coach.
Robert Saleh and Urban Meyer must be sharing the same playbook.
Looks like it! It’s sad that teams can say ‘we’re rebuilding’ but also not try. Penalties, & turnovers lose more games than anything else; that’s all on coaching.
The Pats ran between both guards at will. Their RB had 100+ yards running straight. They tried 3-4 flea flickers just to tease them. It was varsity vs middle school game.
The Catch-22 with rebuilding is that you need young players to do it but they are also the players most likely to make costly mistakes. It’s a dilemma all new coaches struggle with.
You said the other day that the old Skins coach preferred vets over draft picks. I don’t know the answer, but what I saw from the Jets and 9’ers was poor overall coaching.
The best play the Colts did was go deep and expect PI. Something like 4 for 100 yards there about.
There are many examples of questionable coaching decisions each week but even good coaching can be undone by poor execution. Don’t get me started on the quality of officiating in the NFL…lol.
