Sunday’s performance by Jets quarterback Mike White felt familiar.
It was just over a year ago when White came in for an injured Zach Wilson and lit the Bengals up for 405 yards in a shocking Jets win. Sunday’s win over the Bears was not an upset like that one, but White, now replacing an ineffective Wilson, again played an outstanding game and led the Jets to a 31-10 victory.
So this year, the trick for White will be turning one strong performance into a string of them. White took advantage of a bad Bears defense at home on Sunday. He now faces two tough road games at Minnesota and at Buffalo in the next two weeks. Mike White throws a pass during the Jets’ win over the Bears.For starters, the Jets are a better team. Last year’s defense was playing terribly during White’s three-game starting stretch. The Jets allowed 31, 45 and 45 points in those three games.
The Jets found a winning formula even when Wilson was at quarterback by playing good defense, running the ball and not turning it over. White did that perfectly Sunday against the Bears. Teams are now going to go to school on White and teams will have more success pressuring him than the Bears, who only hit him twice.
“That’s part of playing quarterback,” White said. “That’s part of handling the successes and turning the page and moving on. I think that’s where I got in trouble in the Buffalo game last year and I learned from that. Like I said earlier, you’ve got to learn from your lows and build upon that and just keep playing smart, winning football.”
