Jets Fans Criticize Coach Glenn Quarterback Choice Amid 0-7 Start vs Bengals

The New York Jets, struggling with an 0-7 record, have chosen Justin Fields as their starting quarterback against the Cincinnati Bengals due to backup Tyrod Taylor's knee injury. Jets fans have expressed widespread frustration on social media, criticizing Fields' performance and head coach Aaron Glenn's leadership, with some suggesting Fields' future with the team is in jeopardy if the upcoming game goes poorly. The controversy intensified after Fields was benched at halftime in the previous loss to the Panthers, extending the Jets' scoreless streak to eight quarters. Owner Woody Johnson publicly defended Glenn while criticizing Fields and the offense's shortcomings, acknowledging the difficulties the team faces with their quarterback situation. Meanwhile, the Bengals endured a damaging loss to the Jets, dropping to a 3-5 record and placing doubt on the return of star quarterback Joe Burrow, with fans voicing discontent toward head coach Zac Taylor and general manager Duke Tobin. The Bengals' defensive struggles in the game further dimmed hopes for the season, highlighting challenges for both teams ahead.
