FLORHAM PARK, N.J – Before the afternoon turned into gloom, and the misery crept in as another miserable loss unfolded, there was this:
Zach Wilson taking the Jets on a short touchdown drive to follow up Braxton Berrios’ 79-yard kickoff return. And then Wilson with a 68-yard scoring drive, capped off with his 1-yard touchdown run. And then a third touchdown in the first half, a nine-play, 75-yard thing of beauty that ended with Wilson’s 1-yard scoring throw to tight end Ryan Griffin.
