Serious slump: Jets defensive linemen 0-for-602 as pass-rushers

FLORHAM PARK, N.J. -- Where have you gone, Mark Gastineau, Joe Klecko, Marty Lyons and Abdul Salaam?

In a bygone era, they were the New York Sack Exchange, a front four that devoured quarterbacks. More than three decades after their heyday, they're still beloved by New York Jets fans. Now in their 60s, they actually have something in common with the current group of Jets linemen.

No sacks in 2017.

It's one of the biggest mysteries of the season. While the Jets (3-3) have overachieved as a team, their defensive line -- thought to be the strongest position group -- has underachieved.
