Takeaways from Sunday’s 35-12 Jets loss to the Chiefs:
1. It has become an all-too-familiar script with these Jets. They move the ball into the opponent’s territory and then stall and end up kicking a field goal. We have seen it since Week 1 with this team, and it continued now into Week 9 on Sunday. The Jets kicked four field goals in the first half of Sunday’s game despite running 25 plays in Chiefs territory.
You just knew that the Jets were going to be doomed by kicking field goals instead of scoring touchdowns against a team as explosive as the Chiefs. Sure enough, it killed them. Then, they could not even manage field goals in the second half as they got shut out in the final two quarters.
2. There were some clear signs of why the Jets are a bad team and why the Chiefs are a good team Sunday. One of them was how the Chiefs took advantage of Jets mistakes and the Jets failed to capitalize on Kansas City’s. The Chiefs fumbled twice in the first half, and the Jets only managed to score three points off those turnovers. Braelon Allen fumbled, and the Chiefs scored a touchdown two plays later. The Jets continue to miss opportunities. The Chiefs showed how you cash in on them.
