Three sets of statistical trends, records, marks and highlights by the Jets following their 23-10 loss at Baltimore on Sunday:
Breece Still Did Plenty
RB Breece Hall was beating himself up for a spell over his lost fumble midway through the fourth quarter, "I know the type of player I am," Hall said. "I know with the ball in my hands in those situations, those high-stakes, high-pressure situations, I've just got to be better with it."
But Hall was plenty good before that play. He totaled 119 yards from scrimmage, his sixth 100-YFS game this season and 18th of his Jets career, and the centerpiece was his 40-yard catch-and-run from Tyrod Taylor, which he unleashed two games after his 42-yard touchdown plunge vs. Cleveland from Justin Fields.
A fairly long list of Jets RBs have produced at least a pair of receptions of 40 yards or longer in one season. Most recent was 19 years ago, when rookie Leon Washington had two road 40s, both on Chad Pennington passes, in 2006.
Washington is the only other Jets back to do that in the 21st century. But in the 1900s, the list includes Dick Christy (4 catches for the 1961 Titans), Bill Mathis (3, 1966), John Riggins (2, 1972), Bruce Harper (2, 1980), Adrian Murrell (2, 1995) and Richie Anderson (2, 1996).
Hall needs just one more 40-plus catch to reshape the top of that list down to Christy, Mathis and himself as Jets RBs with 3 such receptions in a season. And Breece is already the only back in franchise history to have his noteworthy single-season receptions supplied by different QBs.
