Immediate Analysis: Another “Jets loss” noted against the Seahawks

The New York Jets always seem to find a way to disappoint, and they stuck to that formula in Week 13 against the Seattle Seahawks.

The Jets (3-9) got off to a surprisingly good start. With a big lead early on, New York looked like it would put a dent in Seattle’s playoff hopes.

Instead, after the first quarter in the 26:21 final, errors and mistakes became common and no more points were scored.

Here’s Jets Wire’s instant analysis of Week 13:

5:34: Zach Charbonnet 8 yd rush (26-21 Seahawks)

Match ball: Kene Nwangwu

Kene Nwangwu made his Jets debut with a bang. His 99-yard return for a touchdown was electrifying. Nwangwu also added a forced fumble. Expect him to be back in the squad.

Key Stats: 12 penalties + 2 giveaways

The Seahawks won and did their part, but the Jets also beat themselves. A total of 12 penalties were imposed against New York. 10 of those were in the second half. There were also ball losses again. Quarterback Aaron Rodgers had a pick-six interception and running back Breece Hall fumbled.

Decisive factor

With five minutes left, the Seahawks stormed through Zach Charbonnet for the go-ahead shot from eight yards out. What stands out, however, is Rodgers’ final pass attempt.

As fans are used to, Rodgers made progress late in the field but couldn’t make it in the end. He’s 0-for-5 in potential game-winning scenarios with the Jets, and his last attempt was just a duck he vomited in the end zone. It fell incomplete.

Last snack

With former Jets quarterback Geno Smith at the helm, the Seahawks left New York by handing Gang Green its ninth straight losing season and its 13th in the last 14 seasons.

Same old jets with this kind of loss and circumstances combined.

What’s next?

The Jets travel to Florida to face the Miami Dolphins (5-7) at 1 p.m. Even though it’s Week 14, it’s the first matchup of the season for these two AFC East opponents.
