Story summary

In Week 5, the New York Jets (2-3) narrowly defeated the Cleveland Browns (3-2) at MetLife Stadium with a 17-12 victory, breaking their three-game losing streak and avoiding a perilous 1-4 start. Running back Braelon Allen delivered a career day, rushing for 116 yards and scoring the decisive touchdown on a 22-yard run in the fourth quarter after Browns long snapper Rex Sunahara's botched snap gave the Jets possession near the end zone. Meanwhile, rookie defensive end David Bailey silenced critics with three sacks, tying his career high and validating the Jets' decision to draft him second overall. Despite their win, the Jets’ defense showcased a historic performance by sacking Deshaun Watson eight times, marking one of the highest sack totals in franchise history. Watson struggled, completing fewer than half his passes and facing significant pressure throughout the game. The victory highlights the importance of Allen's emergence as a key player, especially with Breece Hall out due to injury, while also emphasizing the Browns' ongoing defensive challenges despite recent offensive improvements.

🔮 Quincy Williams made good on his fair warning to the Jets before Sunday’s game at MetLife Stadium.
🔮 They could not afford to lose to the Browns Sunday at MetLife Stadium. A four-game losing streak, a 1-4 record and another Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year’s of irrelevance stared them in the face.
🔮 “We have a ton of games left,” Jets head coach Aaron Glenn said on Wednesday, “and he will make impact plays.
🔮 Bears quarterback Tyson Bagent, who started in place of the injured Caleb Williams, was 25-for-34 passing for 268 yards.
🔮 CHICAGO — The Jets may talk about how they’ve been competitive in every game, and how that has to be considered progress after going 3-14 a year ago.
🔮 TEs Kenyon Sadiq (back) and Jeremy Ruckert (knee) were limited in practice but are expected to play.
🔮 In other roster moves Tuesday, the Jets waived cornerback Jordan Clark, though he could return on the practice squad if he clears waivers.
🔮 Alongside Wilson were Isaiah Williams, undrafted free agent rookie Malik McClain, Sterling Shepard and Jamaal Pritchett, both of whom were signed off the practice squad.
🔮 Key stat 381: That’s the number of yards the Jets defense allowed, after holding their previous two opponents to fewer than 200 in each game. Quote “We feel we could easily be 3-0 by now.’’ — Jets TE Jeremy Ruckert
🔮 Should and could, of course, don’t count in the NFL standings. The Jets are a week removed from leaking away a 10-point fourth-quarter lead in a desultory home loss to the Packers in overtime.
