Remember Zach Wilson’s ill-fated fourth-and-two quarterback sneak against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in 2021?
What about Mike White’s barely-there touchdown against the Minnesota Vikings in 2022 that gave the New York Jets some remaining hope in the game?
In 2022, the Jets had a notoriously difficult time on third down. In fact, they were 28th in the league with a 34.58% conversion rate.
The only area in which they were worse? Conversion rate on third or fourth and short. On the money downs with two or fewer yards to go, the Jets converted for a first down just 34.
