LANDOVER, MD—The New York Jets save their best for … first?
Fans arriving late to Jets games or watch parties often had an excuse: it’s not like they would be missing any green scoring. After all, the Jets had nearly gone 32 consecutive games with scoring on their opening drive. Such a streak dated back to October 2017.
But, over their past four games, the Jets have scored a touchdown on their first offensive possession in each of the past four games. That tally continued on Sunday, as the Jets needed seven plays to go 75 yards after a touchback on the opening kickoff.
