Offense botches last drive of half

The Jets lead 20-10 at the half.

The Bengals tried to spike the ball twice but ended up being called for intentional grounding, which is a loss of down and a 10-second run off. The Bengals had 1 second left.

In the first half, the Jets had 170 passing yards and two touchdowns. Last week, in the 16-9 loss the Eagles, the Jets had 109 total yards passing for the game.

It's a shame the organization is so cash strapped that they'll never buy out any of the coaches' contracts. The players have so obviously tuned out the coaches. Time for a change. And when I mean time... I mean Monday morning.
