The New York Jets dropped to 0-5 with a 37-22 loss to the Dallas Cowboys at MetLife Stadium in a game that showcased all that was wrong with Aaron Glenn’s team.

Any notion of the New York Jets winning their first game of the season vanished in a matter of one minute Sunday afternoon at MetLife Stadium.

That’s because they allowed two Dallas Cowboys touchdowns in the final 57 seconds of the first half, burying themselves in too deep of a hole for any chance at a comeback.

Jets QB Justin Fields was sacked five times, Breece Hall fumbled away a key opportunity in the first half, and the Jets offense couldn’t convert on two fourth-and-1 plays, all adding up to a long afternoon in East Rutherford.

The Jets offense was held to six points until the fourth quarter, the offensive line gave up five sacks to a Cowboys defense that, up until then, had no pass rush through the opening month. 10 penalties crippled the Jets.

Justin Fields threw for 283 yards and two touchdowns while running for 26, and Breece Hall rushed for 113. Dak Prescott threw four touchdown passes to continue his MVP-like pace, and the Cowboys ran for 180 yards.

The Giants jumped out to a double-digit lead in New Orleans but then turned the ball over on five consecutive possessions in a 26-14 loss to the Saints, who scored 23 unanswered points. The Giants fell to 1-4.

For a brief moment there, it sure looked like the New York Giants had turned a corner. Jaxson Dart, making his second start, had thrown two touchdown passes to establish an 11-point lead over New Orleans early in the second quarter. 

But he Giants had turnovers in virtually every possible way — gift fumbles, bad-idea interceptions — and could only watch as the Saints ran up five straight scores and 23 straight points.

“Five turnovers to zero,” Giants head coach Brian Daboll said after the game, “you’re not going to win in this league.”

New York Jets starting quarterback Justin Fields returned to the starting lineup on Monday after missing Week 3 with a concussion.

The Miami Dolphins ruined Fields’ return, beating the Jets 27-21 on Monday Night Football in Week 4. The dual-threat quarterback had some ups and downs.

Fields started poorly, losing a fumble on the Jets’ second possession. It was a brutal follow-up to a Braelon Allen fumble at the goal line on the first drive. 

Fields’ most electric play was of the highlight-worthy variety. With the Jets trailing 17-3 midway through the third quarter, Aaron Glenn encouraged the offense to convert a 4th-and-1. Fields’ play-action attempt appeared dead in the backfield. That’s when he scrambled around, found the edge and rumbled for a 43-yard rushing touchdown.

All in all, Fields completed 20-of-27 passing attempts for 226 yards and a touchdown. The stats are somewhat misleading. Most of Fields’ passing production occurred in the fourth quarter with the Jets trailing by multiple scores, with the Dolphins playing a conservative prevent defense.

After making a brief appearance earlier this year, Taco Bell is bringing back its Mexican Pizza permanently. 

The Mexican Pizza features two crispy flour shells, layered with beans, pizza sauce, seasoned beef, tomatoes and a melted three cheese blend all for a suggested price. You can also get it vegetarian without the seasoned beef.

When the Mexican Pizza made its highly anticipated return back in May, Taco Bell was forced to pull the fan-favorite from national menus because demand outpaced supply. In fact, demand was so high that one location in California reportedly sold 1,000 Mexican Pizzas in a single day.

After a lengthy standoff, the New York Mets re-signed Pete Alonso to a two-year, $54 million contract over the offseason. While the deal kept the slugger in Queens for 2025, it also includes an opt out for the second year. And, barring an unforeseen disaster, Alonso will almost certainly re-enter free agency at the end of the season.

The Mets could work out a new contract with the five-time All-Star. But Alonso will have other suitors interested in a power-hitting corner infielder. It’s unclear if either side will prioritize the other in free agency. And Alonso reflected that uncertainty when discussing his future with the team.

“We’ll see what happens. I love it, it’s great. But you can’t really predict anything,” Alonso said, per New York Post Sports. “It’d be great to stay… whatever happens happens.”

The Jaxson Dart era in New York got off to a winning start, as the Giants upset the previously unbeaten Los Angeles Chargers 21-18 on Sunday at MetLife Stadium.

Dart was efficient, but somewhat limited by a left hamstring injury he suffered in the first half. Dart got his NFL starting QB career off to a good start with a 15-yard touchdown run on his first drive. The Giants went up-tempo in the Ole Miss product’s first game.  

Dart was efficient in the first half in leading the Giants to a 13-10 halftime lead (7 of 11 for 59 yards; six carries for 44 yards and a TD), but the rookie began grabbing his left hamstring to stretch it out late in the first half and was noticeably limping on the last drive before halftime as the Chargers have turned up the pressure.

Rookie Cam Skattebo ran for 79 yards on 25 carries as the Giants rushed for 161 yards on the afternoon.

For Los Angeles, Justin Herbert threw two crucial interceptions that put the Giants in good field position. He finished 23 of 41 for 203 yards passing. Dart only threw for 111, but added 54 yards on the ground with a passing and rushing touchdown. Rookie running back Omarion Hampton was a beast and rushed for 128 yards, including a 54-yard touchdown, on just 12 carries.

Symphony Technology Group managing partner Bill Chisholm has reportedly agreed to purchase the Boston Celtics from the Grousbeck family for a valuation for $6.1 billion, which is the largest sale of a North American sports franchise in history.

The sale surpasses the previous record set when a group led by billionaire Josh Harris purchased the NFL’s Washington Commanders for $6.05 billion in 2023.

The Grousbeck family made a massive profit off the sale, having initially purchased the Celtics for $360 million in 2002. The franchise is the winningest in NBA history with a league-best 3,684 regular season victories and 18 NBA championships, having entered the current 2024-25 season as defending world champions.

The New York Jets had a classic Jets outing against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Tampa (3-0) took a 29-27 win over New York in a close contest. It did not feel that close but somehow the Jets stuck around and even took the lead late.

Then it happened. The Jets defense could not hold the Bucs offense and they kicked the game-winning field goal as time expired.

In the end, it was another ending that has been seen all too often in New York.

The loss brings the Jets’ record to 0-3 to start the 2025 season. Now the Jets move on to preparing for a road game against the Miami Dolphins on Monday Night Football next week.

Star quarterback Patrick Mahomes completed 22 of his 37 pass attempts for 224 yards and a touchdown against the Giants’ secondary.
