Five interceptions on defense. Defensive touchdown. Special teams touchdown. Forty-eight points on the board for the New York Jets.
Yeah, nice hot take Boy Green. That sounds like a perfect gameplan to win with Sam Darnold at the helm.
While all of those things happening will certainly help any gameplan, it’s not about the touchdowns or interceptions, it’s about the principle. Help out your rookie quarterback.
He shouldn’t have to do it all by himself. A good team should be able to support their quarterback.
Andre Roberts averaged over 45 yards per punt return (three returns on the day), that provided one touchdown and two incredibly short fields for Darnold to work with.
