The previous 2 times QB Bo Nix met the Jets on the road, in ’24 and ’25, he completed 56% of his passes, averaged 2.5 yards\/completion and had a 78.9 passer rating. But he didn’t make mistakes, didn’t get sacked, and led the Broncos to two razor-thin victory margins, 10-9 at MetLife and 13-11 in London. The Jets’ fortified corners with vet Nahshon Wright<\/a> and draft pick D’Angelo Ponds<\/a> joining Brandon Stephens<\/a>, Azareye’h Thomas<\/a> and company will seek to make Nix pay.<\/p>\n
The Jets have won twice all-time at the Cardinals, most recently in 2004, when Santana Moss made the longest grab of his 4 G&W seasons, a 69-yard scoring strike from Quincy Carter. That’s the Jets’ most recent TD at AZ \u2014 they managed only FGs in ’16 (28-3 loss)( and ’24 (31-6 defeat). Some longballs to WR Garrett Wilson<\/a>, TE Mason Taylor<\/a> and two first-round rookies, WR Omar Cooper Jr.<\/a> and TE Kenyon Sadiq<\/a> would give the Jets a different heat in the Sonoran Desert.<\/p>\n
Breece Hall starred in last season’s home finale, a loss to the Patriots. Hall’s 111 rushing yards marked the 9th 100-yard game of his four-year career and lifted him to his first 1,000-yard rushing season. He added 18 receiving yards, giving him 129 scrimmage yards for the 19th 100-yard scrimmage game in his career and 1,415 scrimmage yards for the season. For all this and much more, Hall and the Jets in May hammered out a multiyear deal for the quick-as-the-breeze RB.<\/p>\n
Veteran QBs who changed addresses this year could do battle in this one. Kyler Murray, with Arizona, excelled vs. the Jets in wins in 2020 and ’24 with a combined 124.9 rating. He is now wearing Vikings purple on a 1-year deal and will get to connect with All-Pro WR Justin Jefferson, the NFL’s receiving-yards leader the past four seasons. However, Geno Smith, with Seattle from ’22-24, was 6-0 with a 101.0 rating vs. the Cards with 5 of those wins against Murray.<\/p>\n
The final game of year two under Glenn will also be the Jets’ first game in the Bills’ new home, which will be called Highmark Stadium, as was the former stadium. A Western New York football arena by any other name would sound sweeter to the Jets, who went 20-30 in the old venue, broken down by its different names: Rich Stadium (11-14), Ralph Wilson Stadium (6-9), New Era Field (3-1), Bills Stadium (0-1) and Highmark (0-5). Perhaps a new Jets era begins here<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Week 13 \u2014 Bye Week, Sunday, Dec. 6 Week 14, Game 13 \u2014 vs. Denver Broncos (14-3), MetLife…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":894604,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2051],"tags":[7,226,929,1917,255,88,2321,2097,6,8522,8403],"class_list":["post-894603","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-new-york-jets","tag-football","tag-jets","tag-latest-headlines","tag-new-york","tag-new-york-jets","tag-news","tag-newyork","tag-newyorkjets","tag-nfl","tag-randy-lange","tag-schedule"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nfl\/116595696827139202","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/894603","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=894603"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/894603\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/894604"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=894603"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=894603"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=894603"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
