The goal was to start fast. The Jets spent the week preaching urgency in their preparation, and Smith and WR Garrett Wilson delivered on the opening drive. The Green & White moved the ball 90 yards in 8 plays and Wilson scored a 32-yard TD, spinning around S Ronnie Hickman to break a tackle and have an open lane to the end zone.<\/p>\n
Wilson finished the game with 7 receptions for 104 yards \u2014 his 11th\u00a0career game with 100-plus yards.<\/p>\n
The Jets’ defense pressured\u00a0Browns’ QB DeShaun Watson often, sacking him 4 times\u00a0in the first half, holding\u00a0them to two field goals in the first half,\u00a0scoring\u00a0from 25 and 41 yards. Bailey got to him twice in the opening 30 minutes including when\u00a0the Browns\u00a0faced third-and-long from their own 32-yard line and they picked up the blitz from CB Jarvis Brownlee Jr. allowing\u00a0him to rush\u00a0unblocked from the left side for a\u00a07-yard loss, forcing Cleveland to punt.<\/p>\n
The Jets’ offense struggled to sustain drives following their opening drive score. Smith was sacked 3 times in the first half and the Jets punted on their four other first-half possession.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The goal was to start fast.
