This season has been about development and showing progress, and the Jets are doing that in the final month of the season.
The QuarterbackHe looked comfortable and decisive in the pocket and made some really nice throws into tight windows. Wilson has not filled up the box score with gaudy statistics, but his improvement is obvious when you watch the games.
In his six games since returning from a knee injury, Wilson has completed 102 of 182 passes for 1,079 yards with four touchdown passes and two interceptions. He also has run 19 times for 139 yards and four touchdowns. In his first six games, he completed 104 of 181 passes for 1,168 yards, four touchdowns and nine interceptions. He ran the ball just eight times for 22 yards.
The offensive line has played more consistently, and running backs Michael Carter, Tevin Coleman, Ty Johnson and Austin Walter have all broken off big runs. Carter looks like he can’t be tackled at times and should be a fixture in the Jets backfield for the next several years. “I feel like our run game has really taken off,” Saleh said. “We’re generating a lot of explosives in the run game. … It’s a great testament to John Benton, our O-line coach and the offensive line.
