What do we make of Zach Wilson outdueling the Texans’ defense on Sunday, playing perhaps his best game as a professional just a few days after the Jets were unsure they’d give him the ball and signed Brett Rypien as insurance?
Actually, the answer is pretty easy. It’s the same thing we should have made of Wilson the last few times he’s done this, most memorably during his rookie season in a win over the Titans, an eventual No. 1 seed in the conference. Or, most recently in a near loss to the Chiefs back in Week 4. In both of those games, his stats were nearly identical to Sunday’s performance, during which he produced 300 passing yards and two touchdowns.
