Part 6/12:
Coaching Decisions Under Scrutiny
Beyond the quarterback’s struggles, coaching decisions were heavily questioned. At the end of the game, the Jets opted not to attempt a 62-yard field goal—despite being two of 15 on third downs and facing a critical fourth-and-eight with little trust in Fields' arm. The decision seems lackluster, especially considering Nick Folk’s recent success from long range. Earlier in the game, Folk made a 52-yard kick that could have extended to 65 yards.
