A lot of Giants talk in here but yesterday was the first glimpse we got of what I thought the Jet offense would look like this whole season instead of the dumpster fire we got for half of game 1 and all of 2+3. A little concerning we couldn't get the run game going at all and couldn't make the key play to put the game away at various points but that's to be expected of a young team figuring out how to win in the NFL against a team who has made the playoffs...

-Wilson FINALLY showed why people were so eager to put him ahead of Fields in the pre-draft process. Quite frankly he makes throws that only like 5 other QB's can make. The ad libbed bomb to Davis was Rodgers-esque and to not even have to set your feet with a player bearing down on you to throw it 60 yards is just insane arm talent. Then the corner route throw to Keelan Cole was just as impressive.

- Saleh is getting so much out of this defense. One of the more underrated units in the league. The corners are playing terrific football, we got great pressure yesterday, and I wish Lawson was healthy :cry:

- LaFleur, either on purpose or by accident (hoping it's the former), finally stumbled into what made Zach successful in college which was designing rollouts and plays for him to break the pocket and let him take shots deep. Thought yesterday was by far his best performance as an OC. Hope it continues against a porous Falcons defense. To quote The Other Guys ZW is very much a peacock you have to let him fly and live with the results. You don't baby a kid with his arm talent and turn him into a game manager.

-Can we maybe sneak our way back to 2-3 against a weak Falcons D next week? Kind of erase the sour taste in our mouths from the first 3 weeks? I think next week is a big show me something game for this regime... IDC about w-l this season, but let's at least look more like we did yesterday and i can live with it looking down the road.

My bro is a jets fan so I pay attention to the Jets just so we can have so good discussions. Zach Wilson made a lot of plays yesterday that made you say this is why he went #2 overall. The play breaks down and throwing effortlessly on the run. Lot to be happy about yesterday if you are a Jets fan.

I still wouldn't give LaFleur too much credit, seemed most of the big plays were broken plays where Wilson improvised. A couple of those throws were a thing of beauty on the run chucking it 50 yards down the field.

Defense also looked good considering there aren't a lot of names on that side of the ball especially with Maye and Lawson out.

That kid Quincy Williams can play. Still had a lot to learn but the kid flies around the football field and can tackle. Also you are getting huge production out of Huff an UDFA

Bryce Hall didn't get as much props as he deserved because the pass rush was immaculate this past week, but he's been really good...though it helps that we've run a deficit for most of the season I admit.

Jets have their first round pick. Sucks because I like Russ. Hope he takes his time and makes a full recovery.

Damn. My college roommate is the orthopedic doctor for the Seahawks and the Mariners. I'm going to have to text him and bust his balls. :)

Giants right back to squandering opportunities. And now a bad throw by DJ leads to getting Barkley hurt.

Big fumble recovery. Hopefully this gives them some new life. Have to capitalize off this and get some points on the board. Can’t force two turnovers and keep coming up empty afterwards.

you don't love a 3rd and 3 backup up low percentage deep ball shot?

especially when we haven't completed one **** pass and it would be nice to get a nice rhythm throw for DJ to get it going.

It pains me that we will have to endure Garrett for a full season.

I’m gonna keep watching but already know the outcome.

The game ended with the missed FG after the interception.
