The New York Jets are facing another tough start under coach Aaron Glenn

Things are getting dicey for Aaron Glenn and the New York Jets .

Coming off a 3-14 first year under Glenn, the Jets have lost three in a row after winning their opener. They were thoroughly dominated by Chicago in a 23-12 loss on Sunday, a performance that left fans increasingly frustrated and the Jets insisting the franchise's past failures weren't seeping into the locker room.

“We're not going to let one game define us,” center Josh Myers said.

Glenn will be in serious trouble if they do. Losses to Green Bay — when they blew a 10-point lead and lost in overtime — and Detroit — when they rallied from 14 down to tie late, only to lose in the final moments — included some flashes of improvements and optimism, providing a vibe that seemed different , and in a good way.

But the beatdown by the Bears was a huge step back. Chicago had more first downs (34) than New York had total plays on offense (32), perhaps the most mind-blowing stat in a game with so many lopsided examples. The Bears, by the way, ran 89 plays and never punted.
