Struggling Jets Consider Defensive Play-Calling Change Under Ulbrich
Interim coach Jeff Ulbrich weighs relinquishing defensive duties as the Jets falter to 3-8.
- The Jets' defense, once a team strength, has deteriorated significantly since Jeff Ulbrich took over as interim head coach.
- Under Ulbrich's leadership, the Jets have allowed an average of 26.2 points per game, a sharp decline from earlier in the season.
- Ulbrich is contemplating a shift in his responsibilities to refocus on head coaching, potentially handing defensive play-calling to Tony Oden or Marquand Manuel.
- The Jets' offensive struggles persist, with Aaron Rodgers failing to deliver explosive plays and the team lacking effective opening drives.
- The team enters their bye week with an emphasis on self-assessment, aiming to address fundamental issues and improve performance.
