Mon Oct 21 03:00:00 UTC 2024: – The NY Jets recently fired head coach Robert Saleh after a loss to the Buffalo Bills and secured a trade for All-Pro wide receiver Davante Adams.
– Despite the addition of Adams, the Jets have a record of 2-4 and major issues, especially on the offensive line, which has allowed 16 sacks this season (tied for seventh most in the NFL).
– Eleven of those sacks have occurred in the last three games, leading to significant struggles for quarterback Aaron Rodgers.
– The offensive line has also faced numerous penalties affecting plays, including a recent touchdown negated against the Bills.
– Upcoming challenges include facing the Pittsburgh Steelers, particularly notable pass rusher T.J. Watt, who has 4.5 sacks this season and is a key defender in the upcoming game.
– Tyron Smith, a left tackle signed in the offseason, has had a disappointing season, allowing five sacks (tied for second most among tackles) and 16 pressures.
– There are questions about whether Smith can improve his performance to effectively protect against Watt in their upcoming match, as the Jets will need him to step up to have a chance at winning.
