Defend what?  I'm just pointing out that its interesting Eason is getting 1st team reps.  If the 2nd team QB is getting 1st team reps every week then that's news to me.

I think it's more due to the fact that he wasn't around for training camp/preseason so he's had literally zero reps aside from playing some scout team.

Define "physically".

He's certainly got great size for a quarterback, but I don't remember him necessarily being anything special in the athleticism department.

Size. Cannon. 
 

“Pure pocket passer” physically lol. 
 

Let’s call it the Drew Bledsoe physique.

And I think Bledsoe would have a hard time in today's game.

There's a reason why the player comparison here is from 20 years ago.

To be fair, I've heard the same about Tom Brady.

He's arguably one of the least athletic quarterback prospects in the league. He's also one questionably the most successful.

(and I don't buy that it's only because he's some kind of unicorn)

Brady's high level of awareness in the pocket combined with his footwork makes him good at buying time and evading the rush (for a pure pocket passer type).

Combine that with his Gumby like physique and pliability, and he is heavily resistant to injuries as well.

    • Yup. Hopefully  Brandon adds some muscle this off-season but he'll probably be resting his shoulder for a while so I doubt it. Miles should probably be replaced but I don't think we find a better 4th option to be honest. So is it better to add depth along side williams and Coby or try to upgrade the 4/5 . I think adding depth will probably be more beneficial than trying to upgrade starters and bank on Brandon and Kons continuing development. I really don't think they are going to make the playoffs unfortunately. I think the big hole they put themselves in has exhausted them. They've been amazing since January 1 but I think it's come at a cost and their legs are gone. 
    • The issue is the predictability of it all in a Bryce Young led offense. In 4th down attempts the Jets were at 41 and we were at 40. And we were 4th in conversation %. We were 25th in the league in 3rd down conversion because we faced so many 3rd and longs in part due to playcalling on 1st and 2nd down but more largely due to the limitations that cannot be overcome.  And people want us to spend another 1st rounder on WR as if it is going to magically give Bryce physical talent he will never possess. It's a shame we cut off our own nose just to put ourselves in this frustrating predicament.
