What an embarrassment.

The New York Jets entered their Week 5 game against the Dallas Cowboys in desperate need of a victory to avoid falling to 0-5 in Aaron Glenn's first season with the organization. At the very least, Jets fans were hoping for some semblance of competency.

But those same Jets fans should know better. We've seen this repeatedly fall short of even the lowest of expectations. The bar is in hell for Glenn and his team, and yet here we are.

Glenn and the Jets were treated to a chorus of boos as they walked off the field at MetLife Stadium following a disastrous first-half performance against the Cowboys in which Dallas took a 23-3 lead into the break.

Fox NFL analyst Greg Olsen said it best. "This has been a complete meltdown here in New York," Olsen proclaimed as the two teams walked off the field. It seems Jets fans agree with that assessment.

Aaron Glenn and the Jets are getting embarrassed at home...again

The Jets have lost four straight games to open the 2025 season, and while they've been just a few plays away from winning a couple of them, they haven't exactly looked like the most competitive team for much of the year.

The offense has shown flashes and has actually moved the ball effectively at an encouraging rate, but untimely penalties, poor quarterback play, and costly turnovers continue to lower the ceiling of the unit.

The less said about the Jets' defense, the better. New York just allowed 23 first-half points to a Dallas offense without four of their starting offensive linemen and two of their top receivers, including CeeDee Lamb.

Ryan Flournoy, a 2024 seventh-round pick who entered the game with 137 career receiving yards, nearly matched that total in the first half. Javonte Williams has already rushed for over 100 yards on just nine carries.

This Jets team is as embarrassing as any team we've seen take the field at MetLife Stadium in recent memory, and given the ineptitude New York football fans have been treated to over the last decade-plus, that's almost unthinkable.

This is as incompetent as incompetent gets. Jets fans have seen enough.
