What to know

The Jets are working on a short week after a 27-6 loss to the Chargers on Monday Night Football that snapped a three-game winning steak. It wasn't a pretty game for New York, with Head Coach Robert Saleh pointing to "self-inflicted wounds" as part of the loss. Those "wounds" included eight penalties and three turnovers. The offense mustered only two field goals on the night.

The Jets defense remained competitive in the game, holding Chargers QB Justin Herbert to a career-low 136 passing yards and sacking him five times, including Jets first-round pick Will McDonald IV's first career sack – split with former Raider Solomon Thomas. Despite the end result, the defense has been stingy as of late – especially in the passing game. The Jets have allowed just 17 completions of at least 20 yards this season, second fewest in the league behind the Raiders (15 such passes).

Matchup history

The Raiders lead the all-time regular season series against the Jets, 24-18-2, dating back to 1960. The last time the two teams met was on Dec. 6, 2020, where the Silver and Black narrowly beat the Jets, 31-28.

Stats

Following Week 9, the Raiders rank 30th in the league in total offense (275.6 yards per game), 23rd in passing (199.4 ypg), 31st in rushing (76.1 ypg) and 27th in points (17.3 ppg). Defensively, the Raiders rank 15th in total defense (330.9 ypg), eighth in passing (192.2 ypg), 31st in rushing (138.7 ypg) and 19th in points allowed (21.4 ppg).

The Jets offense ranks 31st in the league in total offense (272.9 yards per game), 30th in passing (169.5 ypg), 20th in rushing (103.4 ypg) and 30th in points (16.5 ppg). Defensively, the Jets rank ninth in total defense (312.0 ypg), third in passing (174.8 ypg), 30th in rushing (137.3 ypg) and eighth in points allowed (19.5 ppg).

Curious George
Jet Fanatics
I wonder why no one’s commented on the thread yet? Is it because it’s not even worth it anymore? Is it because we’ve lost all faith in the team and their chances of winning this game?

Jets lose at least 10 points! SMDH

I don't care because the Jets don't care.

I’m actually happy that I will be at work and won’t be able to watch.

I'm expecting another debacle on offense as the coaching staff refuses to even try anything different. Defense will do what they do, and unless the defense or ST can manage to score, we will struggle to put points on the board (as always).

I agree with TCT, the team (more specifically the coaching staff) doesn't seem to give a rats ass. They trot their insanely stupid plan out there over and over, with the same results over and over, and keep harping on the 2% good they see while completely ignoring or dismissing the 98% bad!

Jet 12 -10 over Raiders. Greg the leg with 4 FG. Zippy doesn’t find the end zone once again
I’ve watched the Raiders a lot this season. They are really bad…..

Crosby has 9.5 sacks so far. Zach will easily get sacked 3-4 times. Then there are the additional strip sacks. Should be a fun day for the Jet O line and offense.

Billy Turner: Finger. Out. Sounds like something I would have heard in my early dating life.
Apparently Brown and Saffold are not ready either. That O-line is looking really thin, they have to bring Newman back up from the PS else the whole line is backed up by Glaser and Kelly.

We all need to pray (and especially Zach) that Crosby has a bad day.

As long as Crosby is slow then Becton can block him.
You would think that they might put Bawden in the backfield with the job of intercepting Crosby, but after the stellar job they did of scheming for Parsons I suspect we will see the same formations and play calls as last week. And don't forget that Von Miller will be available for the return game with Buffalo.

Evaluating Mr. Zachery Wilson as a QB is easy. All we need do is ask how much any other NFL team would pay for him as a starting QB.

Go, Gang Green!

Confirmed that Newman has been temporarily elevated from the PS (along with Malik Taylor). So it is either Mitchell (RG) and Warren (RT) or Newman (RG) and Mitchell (RT). I suspect the latter because they won't want Warren's debut to be against Crosby. I look back with nostalgia to the days when I didn't know the names of our backup linemen because we never saw them.
