Jets' Calvin Pace says struggles vs. Oakland Raiders are 'nothing to blow everything up about'

FLORHAM PARK — The Jets' defense had a horrible game in last Sunday's 34-20 loss at the Raiders. Calvin Pace fully understands that. But the veteran outside linebacker refuses to panic over one game.

"It was a bad game, man," Pace told NJ Advance Media on Thursday. "It happens. It's nothing to blow everything up about. But it's not something you want to repeat again. Sometimes, I think as a pro athlete, it's just tough to give somebody else credit. They outplayed us. Everything they did was better than what we did.
