It was a comedy of errors for the Jets in tonight's loss — solely it wasn’t humorous. It felt like issues had been headed in the best route after they marched down the sector on the opening drive, just for Braelon Allen to fumble it away on the objective line. From then on, the Jets’ greatest issues had been uncovered — simply as they’ve been all season.
The largest one: protection.
When Robert Saleh was right here, the Jets persistently fielded some of the profitable defenses within the NFL, whereas the offense typically floundered. Now the protection can’t cease anybody, and the defensive teaching employees has completed a poor job of adjusting to what opposing offenses are throwing at them. Tonight, Waller scored two touchdowns on performs the place the protection was poor. The Jets persistently missed tackles and made errors in protection, and if the Jets had been taking part in towards a greater group — or one which hadn’t misplaced their finest broad receiver (Hill) to a ugly harm — the sport would’ve been much more lopsided.
Miami’s new tight finish made his presence felt in his Dolphins debut. Waller got here out of retirement to signal with the Dolphins in July, however he didn’t play in Miami’s first three video games as a result of a hip harm.
Waller, 33, final performed in an NFL sport with the New York Giants on Jan. 7, 2024, but it surely didn’t take him lengthy to get again into rhythm tonight. Waller hauled in a 4-yard landing go over Jets cornerback Sauce Gardner behind the tip zone to place Miami up 10-0 within the first half.
Within the third quarter, Waller recorded one other rating, this time on a 9-yard go from Tua Tagovailoa to the tip zone. It marked Waller’s third multi-touchdown sport in his profession and first since Dec. 6, 2020, whereas he was with the Las Vegas Raiders (that sport additionally towards the Jets). He completed the sport with three catches for 27 yards and the 2 touchdowns.
“He waited a very long time for this,” coach Mike McDaniel stated in a halftime interview. “A lot earned.”
Tyreek Hill’s harm put a damper on what was constructing as much as be the Dolphins’ finest sport of the season. Head coach Mike McDaniel’s job safety loomed over the franchise as Miami began 0-3.
However the Dolphins quieted the noise with their most put-together efficiency of the season towards the Jets. Miami recovered two Jets turnovers within the first half and Darren Waller scored two touchdowns in his first sport again from retirement and a hip harm. However even with these points coming collectively, Hill’s absence stays a giant loss.
Hill is the Dolphins’ most explosive participant and led the group by way of three video games with 198 receiving yards. If Hill’s harm retains him out for an prolonged time period — it appeared critical — McDaniel and the Dolphins may have rather a lot to make up for.
