Jets coach Robert Saleh went over a critical situation from Sunday’s 27-22 loss to the Vikings that has drawn criticism.
The Jets had third and fourth down from the 1-yard line with just under two minutes left the game, trailing by five, and threw the ball twice. Both passes were incompletions and theSaleh said the third-and-1 play was a run/pass option. White chose to throw the ball, but wide receiver Garrett Wilson stumbled and the ball sailed incomplete.
On fourth down, instead of handing it off to running back Zonovan Knight or running a quarterback sneak, offensive coordinator Mike LaFleur ran a pass play from an empty formation, meaning there were no running backs in the backfield. White threw the ball to Braxton Berrios, who was open, but the ball was slightly behind Berrios and“It’s call your best play,” Saleh said on what LaFleur was thinking.
“It comes down to execution,” Saleh said. “There are things we could have done better as a coaching staff and there’s things we could have done as players from an execution part. Then, credit to them, too. They played situations really well. … Yeah, obviously, it just wasn’t a good day in the red zone.”
The Jets are 26th in the NFL in red-zone efficiency this season at 48.6 percent. Over the last three weeks, they have been even worse, going 2-for-9 and ranking 31st in the league. Jets kicker Greg Zuerlein kicked five field goals to keep them in the game, but not scoring touchdowns killed the Jets.
“We’ve just got to find ways to finish those drives and get six instead of three,” tackle Duane Brown said.
