Losing is already tough enough, but losing and not having your future franchise quarterback on the field?

Well, that’s flat-out torturous for New York Jets fans.

The team’s latest loss came at the hands of divisional rival Miami, another team that is pretty hot right now.

Without Zach Wilson, the Jets turned to veteran Joe Flacco, who looked kind of bizarre wearing a number 19 jersey in Jets green.

Even though it might be slightly embarrassing for the Jets to have to be starting Joe Flacco at this point, he was able to get the ball to Elijah Moore who continues to be extremely impressive.

The rookie out of Ole Miss caught eight of 11 targets for 141 yards and a touchdown.

Moore has been on an absolute tear of late and his 62-yard catch and run against the Dolphins is the latest in Moore’s outstanding rookie highlight reel.
