The "Jets" part of that is that they were up 14-0 with all the momentum and a fan base booing the hell out of its QB, and they got crazy conservative both in going too much to the run and not really letting Darnold try and do much downfield. Plus some dumb penalties, especially by Johnson which only extended the drive temporarily but allowed the Browns to completely flip field position compared to where they should have punted from originally.
But the defense itself is pretty damn talented.
