Denver's first 5 possessions were all 3 plays resulting in 4 punts and a fumble. On Denver's opening drive, they were given the ball on the Jets' 30 yard line after a fumble, and they failed to score.

On the first 8 combined possessions, all 8 were 3 plays (6 3-and-outs, and 2 fumbles).

11 combined first half punts, 2 combined fumbles, and 2 FGs by the Jets (one of which came on a short field already in FG range, though at least they scored the FG unlike Denver).


The second half was only slightly better, but still featured 4 more punts, a turnover on downs, and back to back missed 50 yard FGs.
