NextImg:Jets Week 14 report card: Offense’s best game still wasn’t enough

Grading the Jets’ 32-26 road loss to the Dolphins on Sunday:

This was the best game of the season for the offense, but it still was not enough.

The Jets rolled up 402 yards and looked in control of the game through three quarters.

You can ding them for going 2-for-5 in the red zone or having two three-and-outs in the fourth quarter, but overall, this was a strong outing.

QB Aaron Rodgers (27-for-39, 339 yards, 1 TD, 104.5 rating) had his best game as a Jet.

He connected with WRs Davante Adams (9 catches, 109 yards, 1 TD) and Garrett Wilson (7, 114), showing what the offense is supposed to look like.

Grade: B

This unit continues to disappoint.

On Sunday, they failed to get a single quarterback hit, never mind a sack, on Tua Tagovailoa (33-for-47, 331 yards, 2 TDs, 104.1 rating).

They did not force a turnover, and they folded when the Jets needed a stop in the fourth quarter and overtime.

They gave up a total of 375 yards.

D.J. Reed had a costly pass interference penalty that led to the Dolphins tying the game early in the fourth quarter.

Miami WRs Tyreek Hill (10 catches, 115 yards, 1 TD) and Jaylen Waddle (9 catches, 99 yards) ran all over the Jets.

Grade: F

Kicker Anders Carlson made a clutch field goal to give the Jets the lead in the fourth quarter, but then he did not hit the kickoff into the end zone, and the Dolphins returned the ball to midfield and were able to set up the game-tying field goal to force overtime.

Carlson had four field goals in the game, but his missed kickoff was costly. \

The Jets did nothing in the return game.

Grade: D

The Jets continue to find ways to lose, and that is a poor reflection on this coaching staff.

That may not be completely fair, but the Jets just seem to be missing something when it comes to closing out close games.

Interim coach Jeff Ulbrich’s team was sloppy down the stretch, and it resulted in another disappointing loss.
