I mean, sometimes this league is like there\u2019s guys that have bad games. That doesn\u2019t mean you just bench them.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Jets wide receiver Garrett Wilson (5) is challenged by Denver Broncos cornerback Pat Surtain II (2) in the second half on Oct. 12, 2025. AP<\/p>\n<p>Despite how terribly they played on offense, the Jets had a chance to win this game. <\/p>\n<p>They took an 11-10 lead in the third quarter after a safety. <\/p>\n<p>The Broncos regained the lead with 5:06 left in the game on a Wil Lutz 27-yard field goal.<\/p>\n<p>The Jets had two chances to drive down the field and kick the game-winning field goal but failed. <\/p>\n<p>Jets head coach Aaron Glenn (c.) looks on from the sideline during the loss to the Broncos on Oct. 12, 2025.

Obviously wasn\u2019t good enough. It\u2019s tough being close. At some point we\u2019ve got to finish one of these here.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Jets defense had a positive game after calling a players-only meeting this week. <\/p>\n<p>They forced their first takeaway of the season on Denver\u2019s first drive when Jarvis Brownlee Jr. caused a fumble that Andre Cisco recovered at the Denver 37. <\/p>\n<p>But the offense did nothing with the chance and they had to settle for the first of three Folk field goals.<\/p>\n<p>\n\t\t\tmake every NFL game pay off\t\t<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-modal-image=\"36699206\" width=\"158\" height=\"158\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/UnderdogLogo_Final_stacked-black.png\" alt=\"underdog fantasy logo\" class=\"wp-image-36699206\" style=\"width:158px;height:auto;aspect-ratio:1;display:block\"  \/> Underdog Fantasy<\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/play.underdogfantasy.com\/p-new-york-post\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" data-nyp-affiliate=\"true\">Underdog<\/a><\/strong> is where football fans become winners.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Easy player picks<\/li>\n<li>No season-long commitments<\/li>\n<li>Real prizes every single night<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Use promo code <strong>NYPOST5<\/strong> to get $50 in site credits when you play $5!<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\tMust be 18+ (19+ in AL, NE; 19+ in CO for some games, 21+ in AZ and MAZ) and present in a state where Underdog operates.

Imagn Images<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI knew we were getting the ball back [to start the second half],\u201d Glenn said. \u201cI think it was like third-and-7 or third-and-8. At that point we didn\u2019t know if we got the first down or not. I know one ref was saying yes and the other one was no. Once it got to fourth down, I\u2019m not about to sit there and try to get a play off, they get the ball back. I think they had a timeout left. Give them a chance to kick a field goal, that\u2019s not the smartest thing to do. End the half, get the ball back, see if we get a chance to score.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Wilson was visibly upset as he came off the field.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI just didn\u2019t know exactly what the plan was,\u201d Wilson said. \u201cOnce I figured it out, I was disappointed. I\u2019ll just say that.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Broncos entered the game leading the league in sacks and they added the nine to their impressive total. It was not all on the offensive line, though, as Fields held onto the ball in many instances.<\/p>\n<p>Jets fans are seen wearing brown paper bags over their heads as they enter Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Oct. 12, 2025. Getty Images<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI got to get the ball out. They got a good D-line,\u201d Fields said. \u201cThey got to the backfield fast. Once you get in that rhythm, you got to go one, two, get the hell up out of there.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>This is the third time in franchise history the Jets have started 0-6. <\/p>\n<p>The others came to open some of the most infamous seasons in Jets history \u2014 1996 (1-15) and 2020 (2-14). <\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\tGet the insider\u2019s view on Gang Green\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<p class=\"inline-module__cta\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tSign up for Inside the Jets by Brian Costello, a weekly Sports+ exclusive.\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\tThank you\n\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<p>If the Jets want to avoid joining them, they need to turn it around quickly.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think we\u2019ve got to truly have like a we\u2019ve got a nothing-to-lose mentality,\u201d Wilson said. \u201cThat\u2019s how we feel. It\u2019s got to be obvious. If you\u2019re out there as a player, you should feel like let\u2019s go. I feel like y\u2019all should see that as a fan base watching the team and media. Y\u2019all should be able to tell like we\u2019re playing like we have nothing to lose. I don\u2019t think that was evident today. We\u2019re 0-6 man.
