I don't claim to be a QB whisperer, but it's comical how Zach Wilson's final year + some clips on an empty field made him the #2 pick. That schedule was he worst of the worst, and when they did actually play a decent team the lost and Wilson looked lost. I thought Jaren Hall was a more impressive QB tbh.
You should look up josh allens schedule/opponents and his stats if you want to be underwhelmed.
Fwiw the one game that zach wilson lost that season was against another undefeated ranked team that byu found out that they would play on the monday of game week and had to leave for travel that wednesday (the equipment bus didnt even arrive until gameday). Wilson had 300 yards of offense that game and his receiver (dax milne) came one yard shy of winning the game on the final play. But ya, it wasnt his best game.
His stats that year were: 73.5 completion %, 3,692 yards (he was sitting in a lot of 4th quarters or just handing the ball off due to blowouts), 33 td’s and 3 interceptions. QBR of 196.4. Yes the schedule was craptastic but byu isnt some powerhouse school full of 4 and 5 star wide receivers and running backs and o lineman either.
Josh allen best season: 56% completion, 3203 yards, 28 td’s and 15 ints. 144.9 QBR.
Their rushing numbers were about the same (wilson had more td’s and allen had more yards)
Allens schedule was complete trash too (got his *** kicked by BYU that year too).
Both played crap schedules. Both had amazing physical tools. One put up great stats and a great record against the crap schedule. One went to the jets.
Jordan love too. Horrible schedule. QBR of 129.4. 20 td and 17 int.
Maybe if wilson goes to green bay and sits behind rogers or goes to the bills or gets take. By the 49ers and sits behind garapolo (like brock purdy) then maybe things would look different. Or maybe he would still suck.
