Today’s Jets News shifts quickly from Detroit fallout to Week 4 in Chicago. Breece Hall is week-to-week with a quad injury and appears likely to miss time, putting Braelon Allen and Isaiah Davis in line for bigger roles. The bigger concern may be the offensive line, which allowed five sacks against Detroit and has failed to create much room in the run game for two straight weeks. Geno Smith remains a bright spot after throwing for 321 yards and three touchdowns without an interception, while rookie Kenyon Sadiq’s breakout continues to generate buzz. The Bears are next after a 27-7 Monday night win over Philadelphia, and the JetNation forums are already debating the run game, Geno’s future, Aaron Glenn and another close loss.
