Sam Darnold is leaving his best weapon unused

How about this for the start of Sunday’s Jets game against the Broncos at MetLife Stadium: Get aggressive early on offense and go for the jugular immediately.

How about immediately loosening the Denver defense up by taking some shots down the field with rookie quarterback Sam Darnold throwing the ball deep to Robby Anderson and letting him make a play, whether it’s with a catch or drawing a pass interference penalty?

For obvious reasons, the Jets have played it very close to the vest on offense as they’ve tried both to protect their rookie quarterback and break him in at the same time.
