This week’s report features players and\/or themes that are trending before the Green & White take on the Miami Dolphins at MetLife Stadium on Sunday.<\/p>\n

\ud83d\udcc8 Jets Explosive Passing Game<\/p>\n

Midway through the third quarter of the Jets’ Week 13 victory over the Falcons, Tyrod Taylor<\/a> unloaded a long touchdown pass to second-year wideout Adonai Mitchell<\/a>. The play went for 52 yards in the stat book but traveled 53 yards through the air from where Taylor released the pass, the longest offensive TD of the Jets’ season.<\/p>\n

That play was indicative of the growth the Jets’ offense has shown in the last two weeks. Since Taylor took over as starting signal caller in Week 12, the Green & White’s passing game has unlocked an explosive element.<\/p>\n

In Taylor’s last two starts, since taking over for Justin Fields<\/a> in Week 12, he has a 9.1-yard average depth of target, ninth farthest in the NFL. Over the Jets’ first 11 games, the team ranked 49th in that category in the NFL.<\/p>\n

Taylor is pushing the ball down the field, and in the last two games the Jets are averaging 211 passing yards per game. That number isn’t necessarily among the league’s best, but a big improvement over the first 11 games, in which they averaged 121 passing yards per game.<\/p>\n

\ud83d\udcc8 Austin ‘Sniper’ McNamara<\/p>\n

Jets K Nick Folk stole the headlines last Sunday, drilling a 56-yard game-winning field goal against the Falcons in Week 13. Lost in the shuffle, though, was the punting performance by Austin McNamara<\/a>.<\/p>\n

On Sunday, McNamara launched 6 punts for an average of 49.3 yards, including a long of 55, with 3 landing inside the 20-yard line.<\/p>\n

“I am just trying to do my part, help the team out,” McNamara said postgame. “And put us in the best position possible to win.”<\/p>\n

For the year, McNamara ranks fourth in NFL in punts inside the 20 (22 punts) and 3 third in return yards allowed (89 yards) minimum 12 starts. In the last month alone, he has punted 20 times across 4 games, placed 11 punts inside the 20 and allowed 14 total return yards.<\/p>\n

“He [McNamara] is a weapon, and I call him a weapon,” said HC Aaron Glenn Monday. “We call him our sniper. He has the ability to flip the field for us.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Throughout the season, NewYorkJets.com will provide a Stock Report focusing on the Jets’ upcoming matchup.
