Jets’ Armand Membou Under Fire After Christian Barmore Hit

The game will be an easy one for Jets fans to forget but there was a bit of drama throughout the contest involving rookie offensive lineman Armand Membou. Right before halftime, the Jets ripped off a run and Membou and Patriots defensive tackle Christian Barmore got into it. The two can be seen in the bottom corner of the video below. With the play seemingly over, Membou hit Barmore and he took exception to it.

After the game, Barmore called out Membou, as transcribed by MassLive.com's Mark Daniels.

"I respect this game. I respect every player, whoever I play again," Barmore said. "I never do dirty stuff like that. I don’t care if you’re getting your ass whooped like that. Play better. That’s some dirty (expletive) right there. I told him to meet me at the locker room. I said, if not the locker room, come see me on the field. I’m saying, go tell him and go get him. I’m ready. Where’s your locker room at? Tell me where your locker room at?

"... You all need to see the tape, what that o-lineman did, No. 70. You should all see what he did,” Barmore continued. “The play was already over, blown whistle, I’m about to get up, no 70, I don’t know his name, he literally dove on my back. Like, he put his whole body weight (on me) doing some dirty stuff. So I got up and was about to (fight), and my coach came out and calmed me down.”

Overall, it was a tough day for the Jets. But now it's in the past and there is one game left in the regular season.
