Might a quarterback change lastly be on the horizon for the Jets?
The Jets’ two-game shedding streak got here to an finish on Thursday evening as they misplaced to the AFC East-leading Patriots, 27-14. And as soon as once more, Justin Fields had one other abysmal efficiency. He accomplished 15-of-26 passes for 115 yards and a landing move.
When requested on Friday if he was contemplating a change at quarterback, Glenn didn’t push again like he did after the Jets’ Week 6 loss to the Broncos in London.
“I’m evaluating everything to be honest,” Glenn stated. “I’m evaluating myself, the gamers, schematics, coaches, I’m evaluating the whole lot.
“I don’t want to just place everything on that one situation. I’m just looking at everything because, as a head coach, that’s my job. To make sure I put this team in the best position to win games.”
Glenn benched Fields for Tyrod Taylor at halftime the next week in the course of the loss towards the Panthers after he accomplished simply 6-of-12 passes for 46 yards in the course of the first half-hour. It was rumored that Glenn was leaning in the direction of beginning Taylor towards the Bengals in Week 8, however the veteran quarterback suffered a knee harm towards Carolina and was dominated out. Fields has continued to begin regardless of his Week 7 benching.
“Not good enough,” Fields stated about his efficiency towards New England. “You know, we lost the game, so wasn’t good enough. Every time we lose, my performance isn’t good enough.”
However Glenn says he didn’t contemplate pulling Fields down 14-7 at halftime regardless of him having simply 23 passing yards in the course of the first half-hour of the sport.
“At that point, I wasn’t because I was hoping that we could try to get the magic back of what we had in that first drive,” Glenn stated. “We have now to take a look at every drive as if it’s our openers as a result of in the event you have a look at what we’ve executed on a lot of our openers, we’ve moved the ball fairly a bit.
“We have to do a better job of not just doing it in the open drive, but being continuously doing that as we go through those other series.”
By means of his 9 begins, Fields is averaging 140 passing yards per sport, which is thirty third amongst qualifying quarterbacks. He has thrown seven touchdowns throughout that span, which locations him tied for twenty ninth within the NFL with Browns quarterback Dillon Gabriel.
Not all of the blame must be pointed in the direction of Fields. The Jets’ protection definitely didn’t do its job towards the Patriots, because it left a number of receivers open for many of the evening and missed tackles. Gang Inexperienced was with out star receiver Garrett Wilson, who was positioned on injured reserve hours earlier than kickoff, that means he’ll miss at the very least the Jets’ subsequent three video games. In Wilson’s absence, the Jets move catchers had bother holding onto the soccer.
The one constant space with the Jets’ offense is that it has been among the many worst within the NFL. They rank twenty ninth in yards (281.5) and twenty sixth in factors per sport (20.9). At 2-8, Glenn might look to Taylor to only get any spark and new power for a boring offense.
“To me, it’s more or less, I’m trying to make the best decision to give our guys a chance to win,” Glenn stated. “As a result of to me, a spark can be a short-term deal.
“I don’t know if this is what other coaches’ decisions are, but I want to make the decision to give us a chance to win. Whatever that evaluation process comes out to, just know that the reason why I make the decisions that I make is because it gives us the best chance of winning.”
