Jets' defense allows points on Eagles' first seven possessions in 33-18 loss

The stingy defense the Jets displayed last week in Houston didn’t make the trip back with them.

The Jets showed no resistance or fight on the defensive side of the ball on Sunday. They allowed the Eagles to score on their first seven possessions and lost, 33-18, Sunday at MetLife Stadium.

The Eagles didn’t have starting quarterback Jalen Hurts because of an ankle injury, but they still had more than enough to beat the Jets (3-9).

Jeff Ulbrich’s group didn’t get a stop until a 22-yard loss on a bad snap by the Eagles on third down with just under two minutes remaining.
