Week OneA road win should never be taken for granted, but the way the Jets finished today was disappointing.
Bob Sutton's patented prevent defense keeps blowing big leads. But going into a three man rush against Chad Pennington is particularly stupid.
The three straight runs on the Jets' final drive were a terrible call. Just get a first down and win it.
Perhaps he really was hurt, but Mike Nugent continues to be a bust. The special teams generally was not too good.
Finally, the pass protection was poor, the Jets took some bad penalties, and Laveranues Coles was invisible.
On the plus side, the run game was good, the run defense played well, and the Jets did get pressure on Pennington when they wanted to. In particular, Dwight Lowery looked good, as did Calvin Pace and Kris Jenkins.
