Lots of good to be excited about, but in a lot of ways Dallas outplayed us and lost
- Gallup dropping passes left and right
- going for it on 4th down down 3-7, kick that field goal and the end is a different playing field.
- same is true of the missed FG
Our defense got it done. I’m excited, but they still got run over and allowed them to move at will all second half. Did anyone else think that if they collected the 2-pt conversion we were going to find a way to win?
Positives
- Sam slinging like a boss. Great game, but that interception almost cost us the game in the end. Has to protect points. He will learn
- Ryan Griffin played his best game as a Jet
- I never thought I’d be terrified to see Neville Hewitt get hurt. When he went out, Dallas had a lot more room to run.
- Adams and Maye played really well
- Quinnen Williams made a ton of plays relative to his number of snaps played. I am not sure if he’s on a snap count because he is coming back from injury, but he should be playing more snaps if he’s able
- Leo played a strong game as well. He didn’t get any sacks (that lone honor goes to Jordan Jenkins) but he was in the backfield a bunch and jumped off the screen to me a lot more than he has earlier this season.
- for all the talk of the Dallas line, not much mention by the announcers of the Jets needing the OL shuffle when Beachum got hurt. That group still wasn’t good, Sam was running for his life a lot, but he did make them look like a reasonable group. Still very little to no push in the run game though.
- We got one. Thank god for that. We needed that in the worst way
