Jets After Week 9: Season Report
The New York Jets lost 35-12 at the Kansas City Chiefs, who stand 6-2. The defeat extended the Jets' losing streak to 4 games and dropped their road record to 1-4. Kansas City held the Jets to 12 points, their lowest total in the last 5 games.
Geno Smith completed 18 of 32 passes for 165 yards without a touchdown or an interception. He protected the ball, but the passing game produced few chances to keep pace with Kansas City. David Bailey provided the defense's best moments in the loss, recording 2 sacks.
At 2-7, the Jets sit 3rd in the AFC East, behind the Buffalo Bills at 6-1 and the New England Patriots at 5-3 and ahead of the Miami Dolphins at 1-7. They rank 13th in the AFC and hold no playoff seed. Their only recent win came 17-12 against the Cleveland Browns in Week 5.
The Jets protect the ball, ranking 6th of 32 with 0.8 turnovers per game, but their 21.3 points per game rank 23rd of 32. Geno Smith leads the offense with 1,913 passing yards. On defense, Jamien Sherwood leads with 104 tackles and David Bailey with 5.5 sacks.
The 6-1 Bills visit next, followed by road games against the Los Angeles Chargers, still winless at 0-7, and the Dolphins at 1-7. Buffalo is the hardest test, and both road trips look manageable on paper. The Jets remain in the playoff race, and a home win over division leader Buffalo would matter most with 8 games left.
