Grading the Jets: Blitz call trumps fair to middling performance

The Jets scored four touchdowns with Sam Darnold playing quarterback. That’s something they hadn’t done since Nov. 17 last year at Washington. They had 206 yards rushing. The first time in 28 games under Adam Gase that they did that. Ty Johnson ran for 104 yards, the first time a Jets running back rushed for 100 yards under Gase. And none of this was enough. Darnold was sacked three times, two of them were strip sacks after Clelin Ferrell got past Mekhi Becton. Darnold also threw a bad pick into tight coverage in Raiders’ territory.

DEFENSE: D

Coordinator Gregg Williams did not have a good day.
