JohnnyLV Posted October 10, 2021 Share Posted October 10, 2021 For the last 3 years maybe 4 we have to be the worst team in NFL history on 3rd and long. Whenever we are in 3rd and 10+ it seems like the opposing team converts like 60% of the time. It's just ridiculous, 3rd and 4 I think we have a good chance. 3rd and 10+ you just know they are going to convert. And if they don't the refs will call roughing the passer or holding or PI to just make sure the drive continues. It completely drives me nuts. I hate that feeling in my gut that everytime we should be 90%+ to get off the field our defense fails spectacularly. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SomebodytoAnybody47 Posted October 10, 2021 Share Posted October 10, 2021 I'm terrified of 1st and 10 with this offense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That front 4 is a lot of hype. This defense is reliant of pressure from the front 4. This week we didn't get it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harris5214 Posted October 10, 2021 Share Posted October 10, 2021 Even after the FS penalty in Atlanta’s last drive to make it 3rd and long I knew they were going to give it up. Sent from my iPhone using JetNation.com mobile app Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bostonmajet Posted October 10, 2021 Share Posted October 10, 2021 Yep - got to watch the 2nd half of the game and was thinking let them get to 3-4 please. But secondary still damn young and inexperienced. They will get better - I hope. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s bizarre at this point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevinc855 Posted October 10, 2021 Share Posted October 10, 2021 Downs im scared by with the Jets Offense 1st and 10 2nd and anything 3rd and anything Defense 1st and 10 2nd and whatever 3rd and whatever PS 3rd and Long on D is almost a lock that opposing offense will convert. So I support OP I rather have 3rd and 4. Thats Jets fandom in a nutshell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Over 20 years we have been awful on 3rd and long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
