Segment 1: Observations: Jets in Weeks 3 and 4 of the NFL Season (0:36)

· Week 3 vs. Tampa Bay: Jets lost 29-27…brutal to lose game after scoring 3 TDs in 4th quarter, including defensive TD after trailing 20-6 at the half, 23-6 after 3, and still lose

• Season trend of trailing in games, making late comebacks and losing continues
• Strong 4Q, with backup QB Tyrod Taylor leading 2 TD drives, and edge rusher Will McDonald blocking a FG and running it back for a defensive TD
• Team's going to win that game, right? Left way too much time for QB Baker Mayfield
• Where are the weapons in addition to WR Garrett Wilson? Rookie WR Arian Smith, speedster: 2 catches for 2 yards
• Defense had chance to seal first win by stopping QB Baker Mayfield and the Bucs' offense...

· Week 4 vs the Dolphins: Lost 27-21, most winnable game on the schedule first month

• Jets continue to beat themselves: 3 fumbles lost, 13 penalties, including several offensive pre-snap infractions, killing momentum
• RB Braelon Allen fumbled as he was about to score going into the end zone late in Q1
• Outgained Miami 404-300, including dominant night rushing, 23 first downs
• QB Justin Fields returned from a concussion, had more rushing yards through 3Q than passing yards; rookie TE Mason Taylor had a multiple catch game (5 for 65 yards)
• D let formerly retired TE Darren Waller to score 2 TDs, held Fish to 177 yards passing
• Injuries mounting: why have Braelon Allen returning kickoffs! Knee injury

Segment 2: Observations over first Month of the Season (13:19)

• Many issues in all 3 phases: offense, defense and specials teams - stop penalties, fumbles!
• Is Justin Fields the QB for the short term? Figure out options to one dimensional offense
• D playing worst in years; free agent S Andre Cisco and secondary playing poorly; force some turnovers!
• Key trend: Jets outscored 50-12 in the first half over past 3 games
• Need more weapons in passing game

Segment 3: Looking Ahead to Weeks 5-6 (14:48)

• Jets hosting Dallas in Week 5: Dallas D second worst in the league, should be able to score; to win, will need to win the turnover battle
• Week 6: Jets and Broncos in London: Denver D playing well, young QB with strong coaching; 6th year in a row the two teams have played
• Key question: do the Jets get a win before the bye week? Dallas, Panthers and Bengals up next. Prediction: Yes!

Segment 4: Observations around the League Weeks 3 and 4 (24:39)

• Ravens 1-3, struggling, given up most points in NFL, major injury bug
• Giants surprise the undefeated Chargers 21-18, spark from rookie QB Jaxson Dart; Giants D played well and turnover free football played major role in the win; rookie edge rusher Abdul Carter leads all rookies in QB pressures; lost star WR Malik Nabers to ACL injury
• Biggest surprises? Steelers, Colts and Jags at 3-1, Ravens 1-3
• Eagles not playing best football and still finding ways to win against good comp; Jalin Hurts 0-8 in second half in win over Rams; have not warmed up WRs; great fake tush push call
• Browns have started more QBs than any other team in league (41) since 1999; Flacco benched in favor of rooke QB Dillon Gabriel (team ranks 31st in scoring)

Segment 5: Weeks 5 and 6 Games of Note (40:13)

Week 5

• Niners and Rams
• Pats at Buffalo
• Denver at Philly
• Chiefs at Jags
• Commanders and Chargers
• Bucs at Seahawks
• Giants at 0-4 New Orleans...NYG 2-3 after Week 5? Saints think THEY can get in win column

Week 6

• Giants host Eagles on Thursday night, play twice in three weeks; TOUGH schedule
• Seahawks at Jags (playing above weight class)
• Rams at Ravens (Lamar Jackson to return from hamstring injury)
• Niners at Tampa Bay
• Lions at KC, Sunday night game
• Colts dilemma: if QB Daniel Jones continues to play well, what do you do with QB Anthony Richardson; potential landing spots for Richardson
