If you’ve been following my criticisms of New York Jets offensive coordinator Nathaniel Hackett throughout this season, you know that one thing I’ve constantly suggested him to do is increase the team’s usage of 12 personnel packages (1 RB, 2 TE, 2 WR). Despite finding plenty of success when using the package this year, the Jets have chosen to use it at a below-average rate.
Entering Week 14, the Jets were averaging 5.3 yards per play when using 12 personnel, which ranked 13th-best in the NFL. However, the Jets used 12 personnel on just 16.
