While it didn’t happen in the fashion the Jets or Raiders might have envisioned, New York dropped its 12th straight game of the season Sunday while maintaining its lead in the Trevor Lawrence sweepstakes. The Raiders were able to knock off the Jets, 31-28, avoiding another East Coast letdown.
The Jets put together quite the comeback effort in the second half behind the team’s rushing attack and Gregg Williams’ defense. The bend but don’t break mentality held until the dam burst on a 3rd and 10 at the end of the game, on which Williams sent an all-out blitz. Derek Carr threw a bomb, Henry Ruggs III was all alone and that was that.
Let’s take a look at New York’s best and worst from the team’s latest loss.
