"It feels as if we're back in 2022 and 2023, when the Jets' defense played well enough to win but they got nothing from the offense. In today's NFL, you can't go two games without a touchdown. It's remarkable and it's crippling. The Jets' defense allowed 13 points to Denver in London last week and 13 points Sunday. That should be good enough to win, but it's not when you produce five field goals in 23 drives."
""We gave up too many points," Aaron Glenn said Sunday. Glenn made the quarterback switch from Justin Fields to Tyrod Taylor, but that didn't change anything. They led one field goal drive each. Taylor threw for 80 more yards than Fields, but Fields' passer rating (59.7) was better than Taylor's (25.9) because Taylor threw two interceptions. The bottom line is the Jets don't have enough weapons, which we all knew coming into this season."
The Jets' offense failed to produce touchdowns, settling for five field goals in 23 drives and losing 13-6 despite the defense allowing only 13 points. Aaron Glenn replaced Justin Fields with Tyrod Taylor, but the switch produced little change; Taylor threw two interceptions and had a lower passer rating than Fields despite more yards. Injuries and a lack of weapons, including Garrett Wilson's absence, allowed Carolina to load the box and limit the run game. Offensive coordinator Tanner Engstrand's play-calling drew criticism, and the offensive line struggled with protection and penalties, surrendering six sacks to Carolina after nine from Denver.
