JetNation Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 By Glenn Naughton In the midst of a horrendous defensive struggle, Jets head coach Todd Bowles has hinted that some changes him his team’s secondary may be in order.

Every single game we played could have been won if the QB was even reasonably good. You can't evaluate anything when your QB is on a record setting turnover pace.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
