How the NY Jets can win with a poor run defense: By the numbers

Heading into the 2022 offseason, the New York Jets’ roster was riddled with holes. Joe Douglas has done a masterful job of replenishing the roster with talent through free agency and the draft. If there were an Executive of the Offseason award, Douglas would be a top candidate.

Still, the Super Bowl is not won in the offseason. There was also no way the four-win Jets were going to plug every single hole in their roster overnight.

The Jets’ run defense appears to remain an issue entering 2022. However, as Jets X-Factor’s Michael Nania detailed, poor run defense is a relatively manageable team weakness.
