MetLife had that late‑November bite, but the Jets brought the spice. New York outlasted Atlanta 27–24 in a Week 13 grinder that swung like a subway door at rush hour. Special teams set the tone early — a muffed punt by Atlanta turned into a doorstep plunge for Breece Hall (19 carries, 68 yards, 1 TD), and the back-and-forth never really cooled off from there. Doing it without Garrett Wilson on IR and with Tyrod Taylor back at the controls, the Jets asked their vets and kids to cook — and they did. (espn.com)

Atlanta actually owned the yardage column, piling up 401 to the Jets’ 282, with Bijan Robinson (23-142-1 rushing; 5-51 receiving) slashing through green shirts and Kyle Pitts Sr. (7-82) winning over the middle. Tyler Allgeier (8-20-1; 2-35 receiving) knotted it at the half and later helped set up a go‑ahead fourth‑quarter strike to David Sills V (2-15-1) for a 24–17 Falcons lead. But every time Dirty Birds tried to glide away, the Jets clipped a wing — none bigger than the instant answer in the third: Taylor uncorked a rainbow to rookie starlet Adonai Mitchell (8-102-1) for a 52‑yard equalizer.

The closing act was pure drama. After Atlanta nudged ahead, Taylor turned clock manager into playmaker, leaning on Hall’s tough yards and his own legs — Tyrod: 19/33, 172 yards, 1 TD; 8 rushes, 44 yards, 1 TD; 0 INTs — to bulldoze a 10‑yard game‑tying score inside the two‑minute warning. With 70,012 buzzing, New York kept its foot down. A couple of clutch Mitchell grabs nudged them into long‑range territory, and the veteran hammer did the rest: Nick Folk drilled a 56‑yard dagger with five ticks left, the kick that sent the total sailing past 38.5 and the Jets into a victory formation.

Big Dill of the Game: Tyrod Taylor. The stat line won’t melt servers, but the poise did — two total touchdowns, mistake‑free ball, and the cool to pilot that last‑minute march. That’s a closer’s performance in a street‑fight of a Sunday.
