Yep. The two NFL retreads lazard and Conklin are getting more looks and targets than Wilson.
Either Wilson did something to Rogers personally to where Rogers doesn't look his way or Wilson just isn't that good. I can't think of any other reason why he's not getting looks and targets. Even Zach Wilson was targeting him like there was no tomorrow.
Even the running backs are getting more passes too
Unbelievable. What a wasted draft pick.
In this situation a lot of times I'd blame the OC for not getting the ball to their best WR. But with Rodgers, if Wilson was doing enough to command the ball, Rodgers would get it to him.

And just like that, I've learned a valuable lesson. When you whine and cry like a baby on a fake football forum, it appears the fantasy football gods will reward you.Can't wait to see the next post.

Those last two passes put him over the top in targets for now.

He's got 25 yards people, that's it.
He also has a TD.

It’s apparent the Jets are running the team ala KC with TE Tyler Conklin as the #1 throwing option and the receivers as accessory targets. Wilson should still have value this year as a wr2/3 (better than drafting one of the many injured players in round 2)

They’re just not on the same page. Aaron has missed him a few times and Wilson hasn’t run sharp routes either. Gotta happen against woeful Denver or else I’m shopping him.

5/33 2yd TD, 4.7 YPT? woof
Just give him time. Rodgers is leaning on his familiarity rn.
Wilson had to deal with Sneed Gonzalez and next week Surtain.
Gonzalez shadowed him all over the field tonight.
Rodgers forced one into him to get him going.
After the game in his prime interview, his last sentence was “once we get 5 going it’s going to be special”
SO CHILL

He's skinny. He moves like Gumby. He's being counted on to be the guy, and I hope that he can be.

He does need to bulk up a little, he would of had that 1st TD if he could break a tackle. The Jets just didn't need to do much last night; at halftime they had 250 yards to 40. And Rodgers is good enough to not force the ball to anyone; he tore them up last night in the middle of the field. Once they felt comfortable with the game they gave GW another chance at a TD and he got it done. Obviously we're not going to get 1600 yrs out of Wilson but hes going to be fine IMO

Nice analysis. I don't roster him; I'm just a Jets fan. I think he'll be fine also, but can he be the guy for Rodgers? Those guys have career years.

When Surtain is gonna be glued to him all game?It's the 80's throwback jersey. It's funny how weird it looks.
This. He wasn't getting targeted much, and then when he was they were not in sync. I want to blame Rodgers, but he didn't seem to have any trouble hitting anyone else.

Yes, 80s, but the green is a little brighter than 80s, especially the helmets.

He had the joint most receptions last night.

He's had double digits in PPR Week 1-2-3
What's the problem?
Please trade him to me

And since preseason play is out of the question, how many games will this take? I'm beginning to think they should make preseason 7 on 7 non-contact so that starters can actually use it to get ready for the season. Imagine.

I am the other way.. I think they should eliminate all the PS games and make camp longer.. Coaches can control what they want in camp, like no touch on the QB and such, so people like Rodgers, Mahomes, etc can get more work with their new players, or get adapted to a new offense.. Playing pointless PS games IMO just takes away from them doing that cause no coach is going to risk a top notch player with a big contract getting hurt in a PS game, so maybe outside a series, they just aren't going to play.

The problem with this is that players on the bubble or who aren't superstars are still auditioning for a job. Playing actual games helps these guys and the coaches make these important decisions.

I tend to agree.
The great Don Shula had a very intense camp in Miami and required everyone to complete a 1 mile run in something like 8:00 or maybe it was 10/12 but he required it to be on the team and everyone had to pass including OL/DL, although back in that era, 250-260 was about as big as they got.
His players were typically in top condition and part of their magic in the early to mid 70s was overall conditioning.
Piggyback on what you said, a 2 week extension of camp would be a good move
On other thing I wanted to add is that even when they abolish PS which they will to get the players to play an 18 game schedule, you still are going to have injuries and while you're right, nobody that's making a lot of money is going to be exposed in these meaningless and useless PS games.
When the NFL slotted rookies and capped their potential money coming in, Sam Bradford being one of the last of those types of contracts, I think many fans liked it and thought it was a good way to reset the table and it was. But now, we have sky high QBs making $60M or close to it per season, should there be a salary cap at the certain positions? Like a Max-Contract in the NBA, and that numbers is maybe adjusted yearly and accordingly.
And with that, I have hijacked this thread, I didn't even know I was in the Wilson thread, I'll find my way out the front door

Back then they needed extended training camp/preseason because most players worked other jobs in the offseason and weren’t anywhere near in playing shape when they arrived to camp. That hasn’t been the case in many decades.

Not expecting much this week mind.
I just got him in a redraft league for Mason and Waddle.
Did you consider that a discount?
With Tua out, yes.

Almost pulled the trigger at the last minute & put Addison in for this turd, so disgusted I didn't. He isn't even start worthy anymore.
