How bad are they Jets this season? After eight games this season, their record is 2-6. Their last loss came against a team that was on a six-game losing streak leading up to their meeting with the Jets. Well, I lose to Reconstruction Patriots may have finally given everyone in New York a reality check. But is it so bad that players have to lose their nicknames over the course of the season?

Well, it’s true. Jets CB Gravy Gardner was called out for his troubles this season. However, not only as a former defensive lineman Chris Canty wants his nickname removed. Give your opinion on it UnSports ESPN showsaid Canty, “He doesn’t have any sauce at the moment. He’s so dry.” And the former Giants tackle also added that people should now call him Ahmad Gardner instead of Sauce Gardner.

Although it could be quite harsh for a player to lose his possible identity, Gardner has seen a massive decline this season. A cornerback who once won two first-team All-Pro titles in consecutive seasons is nowhere to be seen eight games into the season. With a coverage grade of 70.9 after the first seven games, Gardner ranks 28th among all CBs this season. And do you know what makes this statistic even worse? Well, his teammate DJ Reed takes first place with its coverage ratio of 87.4.

But the Jets CB coach Tony Oden was still full of praise for his cornerback, “He’s still one of the best corners in the NFL. There is no doubt about that.” And when asked how he did in the first seven games, Oden replied: “I think he did well.” However, Gardner seems to be struggling not to concede penalties this season. After 48 yards, the Jets CB already has four penalties.

Last year, Gardner only recorded five penalties for 50 yards. When Oden was asked if he had conceded more penalties this season, he replied darkly: “He has to play. I have to coach. And the officials have to call it.” Despite all the holes in their defense this season, the Jets rank 2nd in opponents’ pass yards allowed per game. Well, that might be her only one ‘Sauce’ in that floundering backline. While Gardner is being called out for his nickname this season, Aaron Rodgers heard a familiar word after their last defeat in New England.

Aaron Rodgers finds himself in the dark again after the Patriots’ shock loss

When the Foxborough game ended, the Patriots found a glimmer of hope in their difficult season. Even after losing their rookie QB Drake Maye Despite suffering a concussion early in the game, they still managed to win over the Jets. This is what the Jets interim coach got Jeff Ulbrichso upset that he said: “This is a moment of darkness. And we understand that the outside world is going to get really loud now. But the only thing I know in life is that you work when things get dark and hard. And you point the finger at yourself, look within and figure out what I can do better.” Well, I hear the word ‘Darkness,’ The Jets QB Aaron Rodgers should definitely know this feeling.

In 2023, Rodgers spent four nights in complete darkness debating whether he should hang up his boots. However, he didn’t, and instead A-Rod emerged from that obscurity and completed a trade deal from Green Bay to New York. But the four-time NFL MVP is once again battling that darkness.

And this time it’s more difficult considering the position his team is currently in. “I was in the dark. You have to go in there. Make peace with it.” Well, making peace isn’t really an option right now. Only results will bring peace to New York. After firing their head coach Robert Salehthey have now lost three times in a row. This makes us wonder if Saleh was really the problem in New York. Or there are other issues the Jets need to address. As they continue to figure out what the problems are, their season continues to slide after eight weeks of NFL action.
