The Jets defense is good, overall. The safeties appear to be the weak link. Flacco throwing the ball 60 times is an absolute joke of an offensive game plan. If he does it again the Jets lose by at least 17. I still hope he gets knocked around so hard he retires at the half.

I seem to recall, a few years ago, when the Browns receivers got COVID. Jets shut down the running game and forced Mayfield to try to beat them with future Costco checkout line worker receivers. He didn't. 

Same principle here with how mediocre Brissett is. They have the receivers this time but Jacoby probably isn't beating them with his arm. 

If they shut down the Browns running game this will probably be a Cade York 15-Jets 13 kind of game.

Brownie the Elf is great.

Baldy is one of the best in the business...

.@Browns here is the 2022 Cleveland Browns playbook. It’s fairly simple; yet they can execute v any front The names of the plays are my own; the Brownies may call it something different #DawgPound #BaldysBreakdowns pic.twitter.com/wQ1jNBQ83K

Browns are going to win big. 24-7. 

Wilson, baby!

Nothing looks great so far (other than Chubb). Brissett looks a little more chill, but defense did nothing. Flacco needs to be out on his back. 

Some trash ass calls by refs too. Holding call on the last drive before half was awful. 

Defense Not great.

Still bad. 

Congrats Justin. 

Was not expecting that. We were on the river kayaking all day but stopped for lunch at a brewery and caught the first bit. I saw 30-17 with a few minutes left and thought it was over. 

Fire all defensive coaches. Wtf

Perhaps the AFCN is not as good as everyone thought.  Though I do think CIN and BAL will round into form. 

PIT is every bit as bad as I expected, when a team doesn't just hand them a win.

Defense overrated.

I fixed that for you. This loss was gut wrenching. As soon as York missed that PAT I told my lady "Jets are going to score, recover an onside kick and win." Just fucking HORRIBLE.

Brissett and the offense played more than well enough to win. When you put up 30 on a team that just scored 9 against the Rats you SHOULD win.

VERY bad loss. I was counting on a 4-0 start, hoping to get a win against the Pats, and starting 5-6 until Watson returned. Throw that out the window.

I agree. Inexcusable. Just more rooting for trash.

They should beat Pittsburgh but, TBH, I have no desire to watch that crap fest. Will probably be a 9-6 "shootout" but Joe Woods' "defense" will probably be what turns the light bulb on for Pittsburgh.

How many times does the secondary have to blow coverages for Joe Woods to be fired? This shit has been happening for 3 years now. 

Outside of the 2002 playoff loss,  might be the worst loss in browns (expansion era) franchise history.

Twitter getting on Chubb for scoring with 1:55 and would’ve been 1st and goal and no timeouts Jets

How about getting after the secondary for allowing the only thing they could not allow.? Stuff we learned playing recess near the bell time in 4th grade.

People complaining about Chubb can kill themselves.

LOL, no different than people blaming a PIT corner for dropping an easy pick.

At least PIT can't possibly disappoint me this year.  Well, 9-8 might be pretty upsetting....

How is dropping the pick the same?

On the radio:

End of game.  Field announcer says “And the final score is Jets 31 and your Browns 30”.

Huge amount of booing after that.  Huge. 

And well deserved. 

Why are they scoring there? The only way to lose is to score. Stefanski has to know better.

The horrible secondary is the reason that they lost. I like Chubb and Hunt, but they both made huge mental errors. At some point, the coaching staff is responsible for DB's constantly not knowing what coverage they are in and running backs not understanding to stay in bounds and go down at the 1.
