Jets Seek Redemption Against Blitz-Happy Dolphins on Monday Night
29 Sep, 2025
Summary
- Jets lost to Buccaneers in Week 3 on last-second field goal
- Running back Breece Hall had modest performance in the loss
- Dolphins lead NFL in blitz rate, making them vulnerable to passes to RBs
As Week 4 of the 2025 NFL season comes to a close, the New York Jets will visit the Miami Dolphins on Monday night in a crucial matchup between two 0-3 teams. The Jets are looking to rebound after a tough 29-27 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers last Sunday, where they let a potential victory slip away on a last-second field goal.
Running back Breece Hall, a key part of the Jets' offense, had a modest outing in the loss, rushing for just 21 yards on nine carries and catching four passes for 31 yards. However, the fourth-year tailback will have an opportunity to bounce back against a Dolphins defense that has been aggressive in its approach, leading the league in blitz rate at 41.1%. This could play into the Jets' favor, as the Dolphins' blitz-heavy scheme has made them vulnerable to quick passes to running backs out of the backfield, an area where Hall has found success this season.
