Greg Zuerlein was as responsible and brutally honest as he could be after missing two crucial short field goals in the Jets’ 23-20 loss to the Bills at MetLife Stadium on Monday night.

Unfortunately for the 2-4 Jets, responsibility and honesty don’t win games.

And Zuerlein, the Jets kicker for the past two seasons, has now cost the team two potential wins in six games this season.

In Week 2, he missed a 50-yard field goal in the waning seconds of a 10–9 loss to the Broncos.

On Monday night, in a game that would have moved the Jets into first place in the AFC East with a win, Zuerlein hit the left upright on a 32-yard attempt with 55 seconds left in the third quarter, tying the game at 20-20 and a 43-yarder midway through the fourth with the score still tied at 20-20.

Afterwards he made the stunning admission that he was stuck in a slump that includes training, not just matches.

“I just don’t kick the ball,” Zuerlein said. “I wouldn’t say the (windy) conditions played a role. It’s just that I didn’t kick the ball the right way, and the results showed. Not just this game, but previous games (Denver). These guys (teammates) deserve better, and I can do better. I just have to do it.”

Zuerlein went 30-for-37 on field goals in his first season with the Jets, in 2022, good for 81.1 percent. Last season he hit 35-for-38, 92.1 percent.

This season, he’s an alarming 6-of-10 on 60 percent, and 60 percent kickers aren’t around very long, even though Jets interim head coach Jeff Ulbrich preached after the loss that he still believes in Zuerlein.

“I’m not worried about Greg,” Ulbrich said. “I know this guy’s track record, and he’s going to find his rhythm here and … in this season he’s going to win games for us. I know that 100 percent.”
