Las Vegas outscored them 17-3 the rest of the way to snap its own four-game losing streak and send New York home with another late collapse to explain.\n\nMinkah Fitzpatrick did not sugarcoat it afterward, calling the defensive breakdown \"Jets being Jets.\" It is the kind of phrase that tells you everything about how often this team has been here before, watching a lead evaporate against an opponent that badly needed the win more than they did.\n\nThe final score, 38-33, puts this squarely in the one-score loss column that has become a theme for New York. Whatever was working through the first two and a half quarters stopped working exactly when it mattered, and the Raiders made them pay for it.\n\nNo word yet on what changes, if any, the Jets plan to make on defense heading into their next game.","published_at":"2026-11-02T23:20:46.962309+00:00","source_count":4,"written_from":[{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"Minkah Fitzpatrick calls defensive struggles a case of "Jets being Jets"","url":"https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/minkah-fitzpatrick-calls-defensive-struggles-013526813.html"},{"outlet":"Pro Football Talk","publisher":"NBC Sports","title":"Minkah Fitzpatrick calls defensive struggles a case of \"Jets being Jets\"","url":"https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/minkah-fitzpatrick-calls-defensive-struggles-a-case-of-jets-being-jets"},{"outlet":"ESPN","publisher":"ESPN","title":"'Jets being Jets': Fitzpatrick sums up team's latest puzzling loss","url":"https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/50353796/jets-being-jets-fitzpatrick-sums-team-latest-loss"},{"outlet":"New York Post","publisher":"New York Post","title":"Minkah Fitzpatrick calls it ‘Jets being Jets’ after defense gets embrassed by Raiders","url":"https://nypost.com/2026/11/01/sports/minkah-fitzpatrick-calls-it-jets-being-jets-after-defense-gets-embrassed-by-raiders/"}],"more_coverage":[{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"Minkah Fitzpatrick’s ‘Jets being Jets’ confession is damning for Aaron Glenn","url":"https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/minkah-fitzpatrick-jets-being-jets-175056680.html"},{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"Jets Being Jets: Fitzpatrick Names The Painful Truth","url":"https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/jets-being-jets-fitzpatrick-names-221814744.html"}],"image":{"url":"https://nbcsports.brightspotcdn.com/dims4/default/910495f/2147483647/strip/false/crop/1920x1080+0+0/resize/1920x1080!/quality/90/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fhdliveextra-a.akamaihd.net%2FHD%2Fimage_sports%2FNBCU_Sports_Group_-_nbcsports%2F287%2F407%2FBowersJets11-1PMX.jpg","credit":"Pro Football Talk","width":1920},"embed":null,"license":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/","attribution":"Analysis data is licensed CC BY 4.0.
