Part 3/6:
Fans were left wondering how a team that started so well could collapse so dramatically. The game showcased the Jets’ inability to capitalize on their early advantage, leading to familiar criticisms regarding their mental fortitude. It has become all too clear that when faced with adversity—be it an interception or a missed opportunity—the Jets struggle to recover. The season has become emblematic of a team that flounders in critical moments.
One standout moment emblematic of the Jets’ struggles occurred when Aaron Rodgers missed a wide-open Garrett Wilson in the end zone during a critical red-zone opportunity. Such errors have added to the mounting frustration, as these seemingly small mistakes can dramatically alter the course of a game.
