Todd Bowles has a 24-hour rule for all games, good or bad. After 24 hours it has to be out of your system. But Thursday’s loss to the Browns will linger longer.
“It’s going to be a bad weekend for us,” defensive end Leonard Williams said.
The Jets have a long time to digest the 21-17 defeat in Cleveland, and all they did wrong in letting a two-touchdown lead float away down Lake Erie. The Browns were winless in their last 19 games and the Jets were planning to extend that streak.
Coming off a penalty, mistake and turnover-filled home loss to the Dolphins last Sunday, the Jets couldn’t wait to play again.
