Jets Weekly Report Card: vs Broncos

The New York Jets were flat out humiliated by the Denver Broncos on Sunday. After riding high versus Kansas City, the Jets came back to the ground, hard, losing 23-0. This was an embarrassing game for New York, but how did each individual unit perform?

Quarterbacks

Josh McCown & Bryce Petty

Key Stats: McCown: 6/12, 48 yds, 0 TD, 1 INT, 25.0 RTG

Petty: 2/9, 14 yds, 0 TD, 39.6 RTG

Notes: Josh McCown struggled mightily throughout the game. He broke his hand in the third quarter, and Bryce Petty did not play any better in his relief. Just a bad game for these two.

Final Grade: F

Running Backs

Bilal Powell and Matt Forte

Key Stats: Powell: 13 Att, 35 yds, 2.7 YPC

Forte: 6 Att, 13 yds, 2.2 YPC

Notes: Can’t put all the blame on the Bilal Powell and Matt Forte simply because the O-Line gave them no opportunities.

Kearse: 1 Rec, 4 yds

Final Grade: F

Special Teams

Entire Unit

Final Grade: B

Coaching

Entire Unit

Key Stats: 100 total offensive yards, 273 yards allowed. 0 points, 8 punts, 2.1 yards per play.

Notes: The coaching staff looked as if they gave up in the second quarter. Down 13-0 with around a minute left in the first half, Todd Bowles let the clock run rather than try to make it a one score game. Also, after McCown left the game, they called it quits. They ran the ball down 3 possessions with 10 minutes left in the fourth. Truly pathetic all around from the coaching staff.

Final Grade: F
