The Jets struggled offensively in their preseason loss against the Giants, particularly in the passing game. Quarterback Justin Fields did not attempt long throws, completing only one pass for 4 yards in 18 snaps. Fields emphasized a cautious approach, stating, "It'll come. No need to force it." Additionally, wide receiver Garrett Wilson was targeted three times but failed to secure any catches. The Jets need to improve significantly before their upcoming Week 1 game against Pittsburgh, especially in terms of chemistry and execution on offense.
"I was literally thinking that on the sideline," Fields said. The Jets' passing offense needs serious work before their Week 1 game against Pittsburgh."
"It'll come. No need to force it," Fields said. "When you try to force it, that's when tipped balls, picks happen. So my mindset is always going to be take what the defense gives me."
Fields played 18 snaps. He dropped back six times, threw five passes and completed one - for 4 yards."
"There's still plenty of time, though," Fields said regarding developing a connection with Wilson.
