3 primary goals NY Jets defense must hit to silence Justin Herbert

The pungent stink of the swampy Meadowlands has swallowed every elite quarterback who has dared step foot within its boundaries to take on the vaunted New York Jets defense.

New York has already hosted three of the NFL’s current top 10 quarterbacks in passing yards per game: Josh Allen, Patrick Mahomes, and Jalen Hurts. Here is how their numbers at MetLife Stadium compare to their numbers in all other games:

  • 3 games @ Jets: 3 TD, 8 INT, 239.7 YPG, 6.2 Y/A, 61.7 passer rating, 2.7 sacks per game, 17.7 points per game
  • 24 other games: 47 TD, 17 INT, 300.
