EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) — The New York Jets’ defense did its job — again.Zach Wilson and the offense? Well, they keep struggling to be something more than a stumbling, bumbling bunch.“I think we all just kept taking turns,” Wilson said after the Jets’ 27-6 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers on Monday night. “Too many self-inflicted wounds. Just not good enough. I don’t know what to say. Not good enough.”The Jets (4-4) came in with a three-game winning streak and found themselves in the thick of the AFC playoff hunt at the midway point of the season.But if New York intends to remain there, it needs vast improvement by the offense. And immediately.“Our defense is playing lights out, man,” Wilson said. “We’ve got to get something going. We’ve got to find a way.”The Jets held Justin Herbert to 136 yards on 16-of-30 passing and the Chargers gained just 191 total yards. But Los Angeles didn’t need to do much on offense — not when its ...Stock market today: Asian shares are mostly lower as Australia’s central bank raises its key rate

CHULA VISTA, Calif., -- Voters in Chula Vista are looking to elect a new city attorney. This vote comes off the heels of a scandal involving councilmember Andrea Cardenas who was arrested for federal fraud charges. Monday evening, Mayor John McCann released a statement saying that after reviewing the criminal charges, it's clear Cardenas must resign. Candidate Marco Verdugo also joined the mayor's calls for resignation when asked by FOX 5 how he would correct the matter if elected for City Attorney. “Everyone is entitled to their day in court, but Chula Vista residents, people like me and my family who have lived here our entire lives, we’re entitled to representation that we can trust," Verdugo shared. Those charges stem from allegedly misusing PPP Loans and now that's adding extra pressure for the candidates looking to become the next city attorney who would be in charge of those investigations.
