He just needs Jordy Nelson now and the Jets will turn this around.

Winner: Robert Saleh

Saleh got out at the right time. The Jets have lost five in a row after letting New England's Jacoby Brissett lead a game-winning drive capped off by a fourth-and-goal run from the 1-yard line with just seconds remaining. Three of those losses have come after Saleh's abrupt firing in early October, a move that owner Woody Johnson believed would provide a spark to what had been a 2-3 team at the time. That spark has burst into a full-on dumpster fire, and what had been a good Jets defense under Saleh's watch has surrendered 62 points to Russell Wilson and Brissett over the past two weeks.

The efficiency numbers from Sunday's game suggest the Jets were the better team. They outgained New England by 2 yards per play and had a higher expected points added average, success rate, and explosive play rate. Aaron Rodgers looked as good as he has since his last MVP season in 2021. He connected on a handful of downfield passes, and a few of them came off-platform. This was the passing game the Jets were hoping to see at the start of the season.

Firing Saleh hasn't worked, but demoting Nathaniel Hackett from play calling duties and elevating Todd Downing has improved the offense over the past few weeks. The Jets have the third-best explosive play rate leaguewide since the change, and Downing has leaned into his quarterback's preferences to make that happen. New York has done away with its under-center offense almost completely. Its shotgun rate stands at 92 percent over the past three weeks, which leads the NFL, per TruMedia.

Non-scrimmage plays ultimately led to the loss for the Jets on Sunday. Greg Zuerlein missed an extra point and a 44-yard field goal. New York took a delay of game before a two-point conversion attempt that would have extended the lead to seven ahead of New England's game-winning drive. And interim coach Jeff Ulbrich settled for a 29-yard field goal on fourth-and-less-than-a-yard in the third quarter. The Jets left a good chunk of points on the field in a game decided by just two.

The offense is starting to show signs of life after one of its most complete performances of the season, but that makes this loss all the more frustrating. The Jets are closer to the first pick than they are to a wild-card spot. At 2-6, their playoff probability has plummeted to 12 percent, according to The Athletic's prediction model. The concern about the offense has been replaced by concern about the defense. And this losing streak has Rodgers talking like a Batman villain.

We still have 10 more weeks of this to go, but after firing the coach, trading for Davante Adams, and convincing Haason Reddick to finally show up, the Jets have run out of new cards to play. Mathematically, New York is still alive in the playoff race, but it's never been more over.

TLDR: Maybe if they kept Saleh and demoted Hackett like Saleh wanted they'd have kept the better defense and improved the offense.

They have a trash owner

He was the ambassador to the UK from 2017-2021 and embarrassed in front of his friends by the international game.

He basically had a temper tantrum and fired Saleh to save face.

Now he gets to enjoy the consequences of his actions.

Glad Saleh was fired from this team. This Lunitic is running it into the ground. Needs to realize he's washed up.

Offense sucked, but defense was good . Fire Saleh

Now the offense and defense suck

Finally caught up to him. Too bad Ulbrich didn't come to us when Kyle offered him the DC job. Maybe next year since they will have a complete overhaul now.

He supposedly got fired because someone "leaked" a story that the FO no longer viewed Rodgers as the future of the franchise.

Jets didnt let it happen...

"Jeff Ulbrich and the 49ers had "mutual interest" before the Jets stepped in"

"The interest wasn't one-sided, either. The Athletic's Zack Rosenblatt reported on Monday that there was "mutual interest" between Ulbrich and the 49ers in the vacant defensive coordinator position.

The Jets, however, weren't going to let Ulbrich leave. The 49ers never issued a formal interview request because the Jets "made it clear that they were not going to let Ulbrich leave," per Rosenblatt."
