They took their own timeout with 20 seconds left, drew a pass interference penalty in the end zone and used a second timeout after losing yards on a run before scoring on a Malik Willis run. <\/p>\n<p>On Monday, Glenn defended the team\u2019s approach despite his Sunday admission that he should have stopped the clock. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey have time to get more first downs to negate the timeouts that we have, so we call timeout then <a class=\"Link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=F2qN8_DZksU\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">we\u2019re using those<\/a>,\u201d Glenn said. \u201cThey get another first down, then they can run the clock out.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Jets had more to gain from getting the ball back with time to mount a drive than they had to lose by using their timeouts in that situation and the mismanagement highlights a consistent problem of Glenn\u2019s tenure with the team. The Jets have now been outscored 107-6 in the last two minutes of the first halves since Glenn was hired and the head coach said Monday that they are \u201ctrying\u201d to improve in those situations. <\/p>\n<p>Based on Sunday, one approach might be to do the opposite of whatever first comes to mind on the sideline. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Jets head coach Aaron Glenn said after Sunday\u2019s 28-25 loss to the Dolphins that he should have used&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":895471,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[63],"tags":[349,99],"class_list":["post-895470","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-nfl","tag-nfl","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/895470","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=895470"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/895470\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/895471"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=895470"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=895470"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=895470"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
