NY Jets vs. Houston Texans
Both times, Ryan Fitzpatrick threw an interception to end the drive, and those wayward tosses helped seal a 24-17 win for the Texans.
The Jets (5-5) have lost four of five games, after opening the season 4-1. I’m probably right but you never know what T.J.is capable up and I really see that once this guy gets in a rhythm, he’s going to go plain loco.
Texans backup quarterback T.J. “No”, Bowles said when asked if he was concerned with Revis’ performance.
“Hoyer is our starter”, coach Bill O’Brien said.
Instead of delivering revenge to the team that traded him to the Jets this past offseason, quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick completed only 19 of 39 pass attempts for 216 yards and threw two fourth-quarter interceptions.
So, what will happen when the NY Jets and the Houston Texans meet? But maybe, they just aren’t.
“Are we a better team [than this]?”
In a world now full of text-based language and emojis, here’s the ideal response to those who gave the Jets the label of a playoff team: “L-O-L”.
Mangold left the game in the second quarter with an injury to his snapping hand and was replaced by Wesley Johnson.
“What are we at, .500?”
“He just kind of undercut the rout”, Fitzpatrick said. “Losing is not acceptable in this league”.
The Jets’ fall is startling because of the impressive start.
“It is very frustrating”. “But… you have to pick yourself back up and fight”.
Except it did sound like an excuse. Quick 3 and out, and to make matters worse, as the Jets came back out on the field, Johnathan Joseph was headed into the Texans locker room with an apparent knee injury.
With the Texans leading 17-10 late in the third quarter, Yates found Hopkins again, this time matched up against Marcus Williams. Sure enough, the Jets bit hard, and Shorts hit a wide-open Blue on a attractive wide receiver pass for their second touchdown of the game. DeAndre Hopkins took full advantage of the matchup when Revis left the game two plays before, and grabbed his second receiving touchdown of the game. Minnesota has allowed an N.F.C.-low 17.1 points a game thanks to a crushing interior defense led by Joseph that takes away the run while also harassing opposing quarterbacks. And Darrelle Revis got injured and had to leave the game.
But Gang Green had one more shot. In October, the NY Jets was a game out of first place in the American Football Conference Eastern division. “We are”, Marshall said. “That being said we’ve got a veteran group”.
