One decision drew a particularly harsh response from former Philadelphia Eagles assistant Ryan Paganetti.The game-management specialist questioned how Glenn arrived at that call, and whether someone else helped steer him wrong. His demand for accountability extended beyond the head coach.Ryan Paganetti Questions Advice Behind Aaron Glenn’s Overtime ChoiceFormer Philadelphia Eagles assistant and game-management specialist Paganetti even criticized the team’s analytics person.“If the Jets have an analytics person helping during the game and they gave this bad info to him, they should be held accountable,” Paganettiwrote. “Someone committed malpractice here.”Paganetti’s opinion matters because game management was central to his NFL career. He worked on the Eagles’ staff during their Super Bowl 52 championship season. In fact, he spent five seasons communicating analytics-based recommendations to Doug Pederson on fourth downs, two-point conversions, and clock management.Glenn explained afterward that he chose to take the ball to control the overtime clock. He believed an opening scoring drive could shorten the game and dictate how Green Bay would have to approach its possession.PREDICT THE NFL SEASON:PFN’s Free NFL Playoff PredictorThe strategy did not survive the opening series.Under the NFL’s current regular-season overtime rules, both teams generally get an opportunity to possess the ball. But the period ends after 10 minutes even if the second team has not started or finished its possession.That gives the team receiving second information about exactly what it needs on its possession, one reason coaches, including Mike Tomlin, said afterward they would have preferred to kick.Glenn’s overtime choice drew only part of the late-game criticism he faced.Jets Let 10-Point Lead Slip AwayThe Jets were ahead 17-7 with 11:04 remaining but allowed Green Bay to score the final 13 points.DIVE IN:PFN’s Free NFL HQ — Team and Player Stats, Info, and MoreAnother controversial sequence came late in regulation. After the Jets stopped Christian Watson short of a first down on a play that began with 1:05 remaining, Glenn declined to use a timeout.Green Bay eventually took a delay-of-game penalty with 21 seconds left, then used the 10-second runoff and the restarted clock to leave two seconds before calling a timeout.Glenn acknowledged afterward that he never seriously considered taking the timeout.The loss overshadowed another strong defensive performance.
