This Is A DISASTER For The Jets...

This was a disgrace for the New York Jets. Aaron Glenn trying to continue to build any sort of optimism and reason to keep him around completely failed, embarrassed himself as the Jets lose in excruciating fashion 28-25 to the winless Dolphins going into today. And this effectively ends the Jets' chances at making the playoffs and also seriously heightens the questions about Aaron Glenn and the future of this New York Jets coaching staff. What's going on guys? I'm Josh Byrne. You're tuned into Jets Digest. Guys, thank you for all the support and engagement for me and Chris Gallagher on the channel. If you're one of the 65% of viewers who are enjoying the daily updates, please do consider subscribing. But, look, this was, I mean, it's a disgrace, as Joe Benningo would say. There is no better way of putting it. The Jets lose 28-25 to the winless Miami Dolphins. And when we look at today's box score, I mean, this was, yet again, another contest of failed opportunities. Geno Smith, again, he posts solid numbers. He did not play as well as the numbers suggested. He made some big mistakes. But, again, there were some mind-numbing decisions from this Jets coaching staff. You look at what the pregame stakes were, Zach Rosenblatt put it perfectly. The Jets win by a lot, and you would have felt a little better about this team. The Jets win by a small margin. They at least live to fight another day. Jets lose ugly. Aaron Glenn has arguably never needed a win more than he did today. He didn't get it. And, I mean, you talk about the expectations for this team, and obviously they weren't Super Bowl expectations by any means. But what did we want to see? I think if you would have asked most Jets fans, they would have said, competitive football for the season not to be over by Halloween again. And unfortunately, guys, I hate to say it, the season's effectively over before Halloween again. We will not enjoy any sort of playoff race. We know now that the standings are done. And now it's about, will Aaron Glenn be the coach? What do we have in Cade Klubnik, despite the fact that Geno's been all right? And all we're going to hear about is the negative and futility of this team and their decision-making and their process. Are the Jets a better team than last year? Absolutely, undisputably. But they're 2-5. They are 2-5, and they just gave the Miami Dolphins their first win of the year after they never had a lead at all going into this game. It's pretty fair to say that the Jets will not be breaking their playoff drought this year. I bought no for $25 on Kalshi. But, you know, essentially, there's really no reward here for this trade because it's a 96% chance of no. And I would say that's even being generous to give the Jets a 4% chance. You see the market there.

So let's look at what's next for the New York Jets. And look, they face the, well, this is just for October, but they face the Las Vegas Raiders next week. You would think that should be a win. I don't know. I don't know how you can feel good about anything at this point. This was a game today that I thought the Jets absolutely should have won and again the end of the first half what are what are what is Aaron Glenn doing you let the Miami Dolphins go down the field but you go to the half with three timeouts and I'm not gonna kill the defense was the defense great today no but in the second half they stood up they forced three consecutive punts the end of the first half was ugly for the Jets defense no doubt about it but there was no reason to go into halftime with three timeouts and Zach Rosenblatt pointed out the Jets up three timeouts and let the Dolphins run it all the way down to 20 seconds end of half Aaron Glenn three timeouts in his pocket but hey the Jets futility on offense in the beginning of the second half led by Frank Reich they weren't shy about wasting a timeout there and then you're down multiple scores in the second half and you basically already wasted a timeout this late half trend is something that we have talked about every single week they've been outscored 107-6. That's not a typo. They've been outscored 107-6 in the final two minutes of the first half during Aaron Glenn's tenure as a head coach. So has Aaron Glenn made some improvements to the Jets defense? Has he had his moments as a play caller on defense? Yes. But you look at the record, they're 2-5. They were 3-14 last year. Now we're doing the math every week of what his record is. It's 5-19. And you wonder, well, how can he be that bad? How can someone be that garbage? 107-6 in the final two minutes of a half is why. Unbelievable. It just continues to happen. I want to hear about roster constraints. This team invested a lot of money in the offseason. This team had prime draft capital. They still don't use Kenyon Sadiq for some reason. Garrett Wilson gets completely lost in the Jets' offense. Zero first half targets for Garrett Wilson. You wonder, oh, well, you know, the Jets, they had a slow start to the offense. Not really. They were moving the ball. Geno Smith threw a brain-dead interception. I don't want to completely kill him. He's mostly took care of the football this year. But again, we talked about it all week. Where has Garrett Wilson been in this offense? Where has Kenyon Sadiq been in this offense? And yet again, they are MIA. And I'm not putting this on them because you see Adam Archuleta and Spiro Ditas pointing it out the entire game. They're getting open. The Jets are not scheming any place for them. Shout out Mason Taylor. He looked good. Great. Garrett Wilson is indisputably the best player on this offense. Omar Cooper, he looks great. And I'm really happy about him. But unfortunately, the takeaway I am getting from this season so far is that yes, the Jets are a better team. Yes, they have more talent. Yes, there are reasons to be encouraged about the future. But just as much conviction that I have in those positive elements, I'm building more and more conviction that this coaching staff is not long for this organization. Here's what Aaron Glenn must answer. He needs to answer a lot. These are just some of the questions. Why did the late half timeout sequence unfold that way? Why has it never been cleaned up through all these weeks? Why do they keep recurring? What changes is he going to make before next game? Because we haven't seen many changes. The Jets still suck in short yard situations, by the way. They either have a delay of game penalty or have to waste a timeout every week. And then you think back to these errors that don't correct themselves. And it shouldn't even be a question. I mean, I put it out there, but this isn't a question. Is Aaron Glenn on the hot seat? Yes. Now, I don't believe in firing coaches midseason because I don't think there's really a reward to doing that. I don't think it turned out well for the Jets when they did it with Robert Sala. not saying that if they kept him around during or during that season it would have answered things but no I don't think they should fire Glenn during this season but I'm feeling very confident Glenn will not be around next year and I'm also feeling good about him not being around next year Aaron Glenn has not won a game against an AFC East opponent he's now 0-8 the Miami Dolphins did not have a lead against anybody going into this game and if you look at the season trajectory it's going downhill it's going to take a lot you for every game the Jets should win on paper that they lose they have to reverse it with a game that they should lose but win and there is still a lot of season left it's the NFL crazy things can happen but we weren't asking for playoffs this year we were asking for competitive football we were asking to not have the season end before halloween and it certainly feels like it has but let me know what you guys think there'll be a lot of discussion is aaron glenn on the hot seat and how is he going to to answer this test how is he going to manage the clock and key downs better how are the jets and frank wright going to feature their offensive playmakers more no and i don't think aaron glenn does comment below let me know what you guys think and as always guys even through the continued futility let's go jets
