Jones had 20 pass attempts against the Dolphins’ blitz in Week 1, but just five against the Jets (plus a sack), who sent extra rushers only on third down. ▪ One likely reason Jones checked down so often: The Jets rarely blitzed. Only the screen passes, which produced gains of 28 and 11 yards by White, were consistently effective. If not for the 32-yarder to Henry, the numbers would have been awful.Īnd the draw plays produced just 17 yards on six attempts, plus a holding penalty by Isaiah Wynn. In the first half, Jones was 6 of 6 for just 14 yards with play-action. While Jones completed 9 of 10 passes for 56 yards out of play-action, five of the completions went for 2 yards or less.
