Regardless of their record, it’s always going to be a battle facing the New York Jets. The glaring flaws on their roster shouldn’t overshadow a stellar defense with playmakers across all three levels of their defense. It’s a unit that has brought out the worst in Josh Allen, Patrick Mahomes, and Jalen Hurts. Combine their ferociousness with horrendous weather conditions on a rainy, windy Sunday afternoon, and the Falcons knew they were going to be in for a grueling battle.
Bijan Robinson was at the centerpiece of their game plan or Atlanta Falcons. The coaching staff was going to be reliant on running the ball, given the matchup and environment.
