That's 23 out of the 42 points that they scored overall.


Even taking that consideration, I have seen a modest drop-off by the defense at-large since the 4th game. That wasn't overly concerning in regard to the game against Tom Brady and the Patriots, but it IS concerning in regard to the game against Matt Darnold and the Lets.

Yeah, believe it or not, the Colts actually had more touchdowns than the Jets did in this game (4 to 3.)

And one of those 3 Jets touchdowns was scored by the defense.
