Well, let's just say it wasn't the performance everyone expected. If any game was set up well for the New York Jets to win and gain traction, it would have been the Week 7 matchup. The winless Miami Dolphins were in town. The home crowd at MetLife Stadium was ready to be engaged and make life hard for the visitors.
Instead, New York laid an egg. Miami didn't just open the scoring to take their first lead of the season. They never trailed, and they left town with a 28-25 win, one that doubles as their first triumph of the season.
The final score doesn't reflect how lopsided this one felt. Aaron Glenn is under fire. So is his team. Pro Football Focus' player grades offer another perspective on Sunday's performance. Here's a look at the lowest-graded players on the defensive side of the ball before everyone turns the page and looks ahead to Week 8 and the Las Vegas Raiders. The Jets are looking to improve their record to 3-5 in that one.
5. Harrison Phillips, defensive tackle - 55.4
4. Jowon Briggs, defensive tackle - 45.3
3. Andre Cisco, safety - 44.8
2. Dane Belton, safety - 40.1
1. David Bailey, EDGE - 39.3
