""I always go back to my first year in Detroit when we struggled on defense and our head coach had a lot of confidence in me making sure we get it right," Glenn said. "I feel the exact same way. I have a lot of confidence in Wilks. He's done a lot of great things in this league as a defensive coordinator. And I'm going to allow him to do his job.""
""You have to take the ball away," Glenn said. "That's what you have to do with defense. That has to be the mentality on defense. We have to go and get it because no one's going to give it to us.""
The Jets lost 37-22 to Dallas, dropping to 0-5. The defense has allowed at least 30 points in three of five games and produced minimal pressure, registering only one sack against a Dallas lineup with three backup offensive linemen. The team surrendered multiple explosive plays, including several over 40 yards, and had 16 missed tackles; a busted coverage led to a 43-yard touchdown. The Jets became the first NFL team with zero takeaways through five games; a Breece Hall fumble was converted into a Dallas touchdown. Aaron Glenn expressed confidence in coordinator Steve Wilks while urging a takeaway mentality.
