Instant analysis as Jets offense rolls craps in Las Vegas, fall to 4-5
Jets #Jets
The New York Jets found sevens in Las Vegas. It’s too bad they were playing craps and not slots. The offense falls flat yet again, failing to score a touchdown as penalties either wiped out a touchdown or kept the Jets from scoring one. The cherry on top was Zach Wilson’s interception. The Jets lost to the Raiders 16-12 and now sit at 4-5, falling even further down the standings in the AFC, now sitting behind the Raiders and Colts.
Here’s some instant notes and thoughts from the Week 10 loss.
…or at least felt over when Zach Wilson stared down Allen Lazard late in the fourth quarter only to have Raiders linebacker Robert Spillane step in front of the throw. The Jets did get one more chance but their Hail Mary attempt was knocked down and fell short, putting the Jets back under .500.
3rd star: LB C.J. Mosley – Once again, Mosley leads the charge with 14 tackles
2nd star: S Jordan Whitehead – Whitehead picked up his fourth interception of the season, all coming in primetime after his hat trick in Week 1 against the Bills
1st star: K Greg Zuerlein – Another busy day for Greg the Leg since the Jets can’t find the end zone. Zuerlein nailed all four of his field goals.
Jordan Whitehead scored his fourth interception of the season early in the first quarter. The Jets couldn’t fully take advantage. The night wasn’t full of highlights yet again, but this was at least one positive.
The Jets head to Buffalo next week for their second meeting of the season with the Bills. The Jets won on a walk-off overtime punt return touchdown in Week 1. This is about as close to a must-win as you can get in Week 11.
