The New York Jets fell short in their Week 1 revenge quest against Aaron Rodgers and the Pittsburgh Steelers, and while there was plenty to be encouraged about in Aaron Glenn's first game, two offseason decisions suddenly seem indefensible.
Brandon Stephens looked like Brandon Stephens. Xavier Gipson looked like Xavier Gipson.
The Jets made Stephens their prized free-agent addition this offseason, signing him to a three-year, $33 million contract despite his countless struggles in Baltimore. Meanwhile, Gipson, who was firmly outplayed this summer, somehow retained his starting punt return man job.
Both of those decisions proved to be the reasons the Jets lost this game.
