Yeah I'm not sure what you all been watching. This has easily been Justin's best season so far. He's not perfect in the pocket and will never be with his skill set, but to me he has started to anticipate more than in the past. The lines and skill players don't all seem to be on the same page but he and Wilson are clicking.

And maybe there's 1 or 2 other QBs that could have escaped like he did for that 43 yard TD run, maybe. I enjoy watching him play I just hate the Jets!

i spoke a little too soon for last nights game but I guess my comment is more on how bad the offense looks at times. I def think alot of it could be the OL and scheme

Won’t disagree that he is having his best season. However I think the best way to describe Justin’s play is consistently inconsistent.

He looked great in game 1 and then looked like he was in his rookie season in game 2. He reflected that last night between the 1st and second half.

I’m with @brodybuck21 that there’s definitely issues with the Oline and scheme that are not helping him.

Less than 30 passing yards in the 3rd qtr and he's missed on some fundamental stuff.

He's every bit as physically capable as anyone. Mentally, JF is so wildly inconsistent that it's like watching two different QBs.

Inconsistency is the death of NFL QBs.

Wonder if he’d have had more success with a full junior season. Probably needed a senior season for as many reps as possible.

I suppose it's possible. But at the same time, there's a part of me that feels we saw his ceiling as a passer in 2020.

I highly doubt 2021 would have fixed what we're currently seeing with him now.

And his passing yards average per game has been incredibly consistent throughout his stop at CHI, PIT and now NYJ. 175-190ypg.

He just is what he is at this point.

Yeah I thought he’d get better after a change from CHI but unfortunately not. At least he has good money and can maybe bounce around for a few more seasons.

If JF landed on a team with incredible talent around him, you'd absolutely see him get better.

But then we would be having the conversation of talent floating Justin vs Justin elevating the talent around him.
