Three interceptions called back because of defense penalties. This could have been a very different game but for Jets stupid mistakes.

It could have been, but the thing that I have loved about Ben Johnson from the start, and which has been golden for Caleb Williams' development is that he fully understands that playing not to lose with your quarterback is suicide.

You succeed on offense by running your offense. At no point has he tried to "protect" any of his QB's from their responsibility to do that.

One of them was a free play after the Jets jumped offsides, so it was a 50/50 ball.

On one, the intended receiver was held to the point it stopped his route.

The one that was questionable was hitting the DT in the chest with the ball on the screen. The RB for caught up in a heap. Bagent needs to just eat the play and throw it at his feet. Can't just assume the back will be there in that mess.

The pick when he threw behind Loveland was the only really bad throw. Three feet in front and it's a 30 yard pickup and three feet behind it gets picked by the safety.

He had a real nice game. Extremely efficient.
