The New York Jets remain uncleared for takeoff.
After a Monday night loss on the road to the AFC East-rival Miami Dolphins, New York is 0-4 under first-year head coach Aaron Glenn, who is sick of his team hurting itself.
"There's no way to win any game with 13 penalties and three turnovers," Glenn said after the 27-21 loss, according to the Jets' official website. "It just can't happen. But what we have to do is get back to work. That's the only way that we can fix them. Really take a look at these penalties and take a look at these turnovers. And we have to understand, before you can win games, you have to learn how not to lose games. And we have to do a better job in that case, and we will."
The Jets committed 13 penalties for 101 yards and lost a fumble on each of their first two possessions — the first one coming at the goal line. Isaiah Williams then lost a fumble on the opening kickoff of the second half, which the Dolphins turned into a touchdown six plays later. Ironically, New York out-gained Miami in total yards 404 to 300.
Jets quarterback Justin Fields finished with a 111.0 passer rating, a season-best 74.1% completion percentage and 226 passing yards, while also rushing for a 43-yard touchdown. At the same time, many of New York's big plays on offense came with it behind two scores in the second half.
New York's loss to Miami, which also entered Monday night at 0-3, comes after a one-score loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 1, a 30-10 loss at home to the Buffalo Bills and a grueling, last-second loss on the road to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 3.
The Jets are 19th in the NFL in points (22.5 per game) and 21st in total yards (304.8 per game). Their defense ranks 20th in the NFL in total yards (330.3
