That moment came early in the second quarter when rookie quarterback Zach Wilson injured his right knee taking a big hit from Patriots linebacker Matthew Judon. A few minutes later, Wilson was limping back to the locker room and no one knows for sure when he'll be back on the field. Saleh said the initial prognosis for Wilson's injury is "good. But the Jets season hinges on what comes next.
If Wilson has an injury that keeps him out a significant amount of time, the Jets are staring a lost season in the face. Their unquestioned top priority was to develop their young quarterback this season, and every snap he can't be on the field is a missed opportunity. But Sunday showed us just how big of a priority Wilson's development is, because it's the only thing the Jets have to look forward to this season.
Even if Wilson was healthy and playing better, this team has done nothing to prove it can be consistently competitive because the roster just isn't good enough. Saleh put the blame on himself and the coaches, not the players. The normally ubeat coach was clearly downtrodden and perhaps a little shell-shocked in the aftermath of this loss. I'll be honest. We talk about adversity. Everyone was asking [when it would come].
You can chalk this one up, it's here. NFL doesn't really give a flying [expletive] — excuse my language — in terms of scheduling. We got to line up the next week and for the 11 or 12, whatever we got left. I know we got the right men in that locker room.
I know we got the right people in that locker room. I know we'll come back strong. D'Ernest Johnson has a great opportunity to flex his skills with the Browns' depleted at running back. Christian McCaffrey is healthy and playing, but he isn't the top-ranked RB this week! England leads Poland by three points and has a healthy goal-differential advantage entering the final group game.

A nightmare of an afternoon saw Gang Green beaten down in Foxboro by the New England Patriots while losing rookie quarterback Zach Wilson to a knee injury during the first half.
While Mike White failed to navigate his team through their trip to New England — he threw two interceptions — in relief of Wilson, this was the first time since that the Jets allowed 50 or more points. Straight off the drawing board, Patriots quarterback Mac Jones threw a lateral screen to Kendrick Bourne, who pulled up on the right sideline and hit an open Nelson Agholor for a yard touchdown.
Following a Jets punt, the Patriots doubled its advantage behind Damien Harris, whose yard run put New England at the doorstep before he punched in a one-yard score with left in the first quarter to put the hosts up After the Patriots went up early in the second, Wilson went down after rolling out to his left while looking for Keelan Cole. A considerable amount of time passed after his release before he was tackled from behind by Judon, who landed awkwardly on his legs.
In the meantime, White — who had zero NFL experience — was called on to replace Wilson and he made an immediate impact, completing a three-yard touchdown on his first career pass attempt in the back of the end zone to Corey Davis to bring the Jets within 10 with to go in the second. The credit for the score belongs to Davis, who made the leaping catch in tight coverage. They kept the pedal to the metal to finish the first half with a flourish as Jones hit Hunter Henry for a one-yard touchdown.
