New York Jets outplayed Rams despite falling short in Week 16 | Pro Football Talk | NFL on NBC

Imagine wrapping yourself in tangles trying to explain how the Jets were the better team but still lost. They lost to an injury plagued team coming off two hard weeks. And the Jets were their normal ballet of dumbassery. Meanwhile, anyone who's followed Stafford's career knows he's the comeback king. The modern era Elway. He was always going to win this game against Rodgers.

The rams defense held the jets scoreless in the second half. Good teams know how to win in bad games.

Credit that Rams defense, they had big time stops on 4th down when the Jets were going up & down the field.

Simms is ridiculous, the Jets didn’t outplay the Rams, he’s failing to look at the big picture, the Rams offense moved the ball easily they ran the ball at will and Stafford only threw 19 passes but completed 14 of them, the Jets had long drives because they converted 4th downs but couldn’t get touchdowns and the Rams only had a few possessions 😆

[calishiiine]

The rams recorded their 5th straight road game victory this season, their longest streak since 2001- they went to the superbowl that season.

[templehillsfunk]

Stafford only completed 14 of 19 passes, 1 td/1int, 73% completion. Kyren rushed for 122 yds/5.3 avg.
Rams Defense turned them over 3 times on downs and twice on fumbles so, the Jets really didn't outplay the Rams.

Simms losing his mind on the Jets is hilarious

[erichumber]

The Jets outplayed the Rams? they were the better football team yesterday? they scored nine points. that's pathetic. they lead the team and dropped passes. the Rams punched him in the mouth again and we won the battle at the line of scrimmage as usual. That's just smash mouth Rams football baby

[leobreed]

Jets "outplayed" the Rams only scoring 9 points. 😂

[christopherboltz]

Curious how they “moved the ball” and scored zero in the second half? What an explosive offense

[Boredman]

In what world were the jets on the rams

[tunahelpa]

McVay did this intentionally. Don't be fooled into thinking the Rams are on an equal footing with the Jets. They are a playoff team, the Jets are not. This was an orchestrated win by McVay, because I mean, why waste all your good pass plays on an inferior team with a washed up QB?
Believe me when I say - if they'd had to, they would have cranked it up in the 4th Qtr and won 35 to 9. They didn't have to, so they didn't. Basically, I think the philosophy was "let them have the ball an let them lose it", and that plan worked !
BTW - Stafford is within 2 or 3 games of having 60, 000 yards career.

"The Rams' offense could not get it going?" Really? They only had the ball 3 times in the first half. POSS 1 - Drove past the 50 & punted because they did not want to attempt a 50+ yard FG in the cold - POSS 2 - Drove down field again (Threw a pick) - POSS 3 - TD / First 3 possessions in the second half - Scored on all 3 & put the game away. Was playing (Kill The Jets t/outs), the next possession, so ran 3 times - So, really scored 0n 4 of 6 possessions that they were trying to. Held the Jets to 3 yards per play in the second half. How exactly is that being outplayed?

[ShawnSayre-ex]

The Jets did not outplay the Rams, no matter how many yards you get, if they don’t cross the goal line then they weren’t the better team.

[gilgarza]

Better team on the field? Lol you are what your record says you are

[thecantankerouscollector]

The Jets didn't outplay the RAMS...smh

[BrianBeadle-qczb]

The reason the Rams won ugly was because two weeks in a row in bed weather. They did what they had to do just like the past four wins in a row…

[tigerhoods]

Don’t ever compare Kyle Shannon to Sean Mcvay you clowns lmao

[stevenvox]

The Jets averaged about 3 yards per play in the second half. It's amazing how the pro Rodgers commentary can convince people like these guys to believe in Rodgers. Adams was not good and Rodgers only looked good in the first half.

Green Bay Packers: 11-4
Grandpa Rodgers : 4-11

The Packers were right.... Aaron Rodgers is the problem. Jets need to turn the page.
