Despite falling to the Houston Texans by a final score of 29-22, Jets fans are feeling pretty good today when looking back at what was easily rookie Sam Darnold’s best performance of his rookie season. Whether operating with a clean pocket or under duress, Darnold made several “wow” throws that allowed him to hand the game over to his defense with a lead and just five minutes remaining in the game. Todd Bowles’ defense would fizzle on the final drive, but that doesn’t mean there wasn’t plenty to be happy about as the Jets set their sights on next season.
