"That Aaron Rodgers story with Aaron Glenn feels like a clue": Colin Cowherd predicts doom for Jets HC after embarrassing loss to Patriots

The New York Jets have lost again after over two weeks, dropping a 27-14 decision at the resurgent New England Patriots on Thursday. And Colin Cowherd senses deja vu.

After the game ended, the veteran sportscaster portended doom for Aaron Glenn's squad, even harking back to Aaron Rodgers' account of his brief meeting with the head coach that marked the end of the multiple-time MVP's tenure with the franchise:

"That Aaron Rodgers story about his weird, brief encounter w Aaron Glenn, feels like a clue now, the Jets new coach probably wouldn’t be a home run."

That Aaron Rodgers story about his weird, brief encounter w Aaron Glenn, feels like a clue now, the Jets new coach probably wouldn’t be a home run.

Justin Fields continued his tribulations in the air, covering only 115 yards on 15 of 26 passes completed and scoring a touchdown to John Metchie III (three catches for 45 yards), whom the Jets had acquired from the Philadelphia Eagles in a trade last month. He also rushed 11 times for 67 yards and a touchdown, while Breece Hall added another 58 on 14 carries.

Meanwhile, the Patriots were buoyed by rookie running back TreVeyon Henderson, who accounted for 93 scrimmage yards (62 rushing and 31 receiving) and scored all their touchdowns (two rushing and one receiving). Stefon Diggs was the game's leading receiver, accounting for 105 yards on nine receptions.

Aaron Glenn, Justin Fields address Jets’ loss to Patriots

After the game, Aaron Glenn took the stand to address his thoughts. Once again, he held himself and the entire team accountable, acknowledging that they had to “do a better job across the board”.

And he singled out guarding the Patriots’ receivers as one of those areas:

"That bothers me, it really does. We have to clean that up... That can't be a part of who we are. It was unacceptable."

He also had some thoughts about Justin Fields’ performance:

"There are some good things, I thought he put some balls out there. We've got to have some guys that make some plays for him too."

Speaking of Fields, he also acknowledged that his performance “wasn’t good enough”. He also discussed the challenges of having to target two wideouts (John Metchie III and Adonai Mitchell) who have not been with the team for long in the absence of Garrett Wilson:

"You kind of have just have to roll with it and deal with it. You can't look at your circumstances, you've just got to go out there and play."

The Jets next visit the Baltimore Ravens on November 23. Kickoff is at 1 pm ET on CBS.
