Win or Lose, Todd Bowles Demands Accountability

Mostly he was referring to receiver Devin Smith.
Against Buffalo two weeks ago, Smith fumbled a kickoff return, which a Buffalo defender ran back for a touchdown.
Last Sunday against Houston, Smith dropped a beautifully thrown pass in the end zone. The Jets wound up losing, 24-17.
