Overview

• The Jets have blown late leads twice and lost on final-minute field goals, underscoring closing-time failures for a defense expected to carry more load early.
• Missed tackles surged from eight in Week 1 to 16 in Week 3, with Pro Football Focus grading the unit among the league’s worst as Glenn cites players diving instead of running through contact.
• New York has yet to force a takeaway and has yielded 22 plays of 15-plus yards, including six 20-yard passes in Tampa, while recording only one sack against a banged-up Buccaneers line.
• Through three games, the defense ranks 28th in scoring and 22nd in yards allowed, sits 30th in turnover production, and is 27th by SumerSports’ EPA/play despite allowing a top-10 low success rate.
• Glenn says he is not shaken and has total confidence in his staff and players, with a trip to Miami and a meeting with Dallas next as analysts label the start a big hole but a chance to show progress.
