00:09so you ever watch a movie so many times that you know exactly what's coming next well that's what
00:15watching the jets feels like right now or maybe all the time the opponents change the stadiums
00:20change but the script is exactly the same the jets lost 35 to 12 to the chiefs on sunday their
00:26four straight loss but after further review the most frustrating part isn't that they lost in
00:31kansas city it's how familiar the loss looked because if you've watched this team over the last
00:37month hell if you've watched this team over the past decade plus well you've actually seen this
00:42before let's start with the beginning here because once again the jets actually showed you something
00:48they moved the ball and they controlled possession breece hall was back and the run game it actually
00:54had some juice they got into chiefs territory over and over again in fact the jets ran 25 plays on
01:01the
01:01chief side of the field that sounds pretty dope until you look at the scoreboard 25 plays in chiefs
01:08territory but zero touchdowns for jason sanders field goals for 12 points that's all the scoring
01:15from gang green in the game and this is where i feel like i'm having deja vu because we've already
01:21talked about this offense's inability to finish drives it's not that they can't always move the
01:26football it's that too often the field gets shorter and the offense gets worse it's always three points
01:32instead of seven and you know what eventually those four point differences start adding up and here's
01:39another part of the jet script the defense actually gave the offense opportunities david bailey
01:44he was out here looking like a problem for the opposing offense again in week nine the rookie
01:50delivered two sacks and two forced fumbles the jets actually recovered two kansas city fumbles but what
01:57did those two takeaways become well you guessed it three points that's the kind of stuff that makes all
02:04the jets fans out there want to throw something and based on geno smith's sideline reaction late in the
02:09game on sunday well he absolutely agrees now here's where this game really starts feeling like the
02:16same old story the jets they trailed 14 to 12 at halftime sure it's not a beautiful offensive first
02:22half for gang green but try to be glass half full here you're two points down at arrowhead you're still
02:28in the game you're right there so what happens after the break well kansas city scores then they score
02:35again and again 21 straight points for the chiefs in the second half meanwhile the jets offense three
02:41punts two turnovers on downs and just a measly 58 yards after halftime quicker than a new york minute
02:50a game that was 14 to 12 becomes 35 to 12 and that's why i think this is bigger than
02:56one bad second half
02:57the jets look like a team that can execute when the game is following the plan the opening script they
03:03can
03:03absolutely move the ball the first few drives they can compete with anyone in the league but when the
03:09game changes when the other team adjusts when you need answers in real time that's where this team
03:16keeps on getting stuck again and again and think about how many of these themes that we've already
03:22covered this season we've covered the two minute problems with the jets we've covered the red zone
03:28problems with this team the failure to finish drives the situational mistakes the defense not
03:34getting off the field when it actually matters the offense failing to cash in when the defense
03:40actually gives them something it's not just one thing anymore with the jets it's becoming a collection
03:46of recurring problems that keep producing the same old ending and now the frustration is starting to
03:54show on the sidelines geno smith tosses his helmet arm on membu slams the tablet aside the players
04:00they're telling you that they're frustrated and look i get it because you can only say we're close
04:05so many times before the record is what it is the jets are now two and seven they've lost four
04:12games in a
04:12row and at some point close has to become good enough to win and this is where aaron glenn has
04:20to own the
04:20bigger picture sure i say this all the time players have agency they have to execute in all phases of
04:25the game
04:26they've got a block they got to tackle catch the ball and they have to finish drives but when the
04:32same
04:32problems keep showing up week after week that's when it becomes a head coaching problem too because after
04:38further review the jets aren't finding new ways to lose people they're repeating the same ones it's rinse and
04:44repeat for the jets fan right now different week different opponent same old script that has some
04:50of you out there saying same old jets but here's the thing until the jets change the script the ending
04:57probably isn't going to change either
