This was the MOST PAINFUL loss I have ever experienced. Worst loss? No.. lord knows we've had some bad ones throughout the years.. but most painful.

Despite everything, we were still in this game. We still had a god damn shot to make a comeback. It was only a 14 point deficit.. And what do they do? They march down the field, give us hope, and throw INTERCEPTION after INTERCEPTION. I have never in my life experienced anything more painful than what I just watched today. I would have rather just been blown out without a slight chance of winning than see what I saw today. It was like putting a great in a dogs mouth and taking it out.. And doing it over and over and over and over again.

When was the last time the NFL has seen a game quarterbacked that poorly? Id honestly be shocked if there was a worse game than that in history. Eye test tells me that was the worst.

I think watching the Raiders run the ball 18 consecutive times vs. the Ted Cottrell / Herm Edwards D was definitely more painful.   Buffalo week 17 last year was more painful and similar with Fitz laying an egg.  There was another week 16 win to get in games vs. the Ravens (it may have been the Groh year) where vinny threw a pick-6 on the goal line and then they gave up a punt return TD as well to blow a promising season.   

so many to pick from that this one is probably not even in the top 10.

hmm

since we seem to want to go there

The butt fumble was a notable American football play from a National Football League (NFL) game played on November 22, 2012, Thanksgiving, between the New York Jets and New England Patriots.

In front of a New York home crowd of 79,000 at MetLife Stadium and a primetime television audience of 20 million, Jets quarterback Mark Sanchez collided with the backside of his teammate Brandon Moore andfumbled the ball, which was recovered by the Patriots' Steve Gregory and returned for a touchdown. The play was the centerpiece of a disastrous sequence in the second quarter, as the Jets lost three fumbles and the Patriots scored three touchdowns—one each on offense, defense, and special teams—all in the span of 52 seconds of game time; in that quarter, the Jets held the ball for over 12 minutes (out of 15), but were outscored 35–3. The game and the so-called "butt fumble" in particular are remembered as the low point of the Jets' 2012 season. The butt fumble was ranked as the most embarrassing moment in Jets history by ESPN.[2]

he game was the 108th meeting between the two clubs and third at MetLife Stadium.

After a Week 11 victory at the St. Louis Rams, the Jets returned home with a 4–6 record, tied with the Buffalo Bills and Miami Dolphins. The Patriots had defeated the Indianapolis Colts in Week 11, entering the game with a 7–3 record, leading the AFC East.

The game was the last of the day's three Thanksgiving Day games. It was broadcast on the NBC television network, kicking off at 8:20 p.m. EST. After six years of the third Thanksgiving game being exclusive to NFL Network and broadcast stations in each team's local market, it was the first broadcast of a primetimeThanksgiving game on a broadcast network in the NFL's history, and NBC expected viewership ratings to rival those of the playoffs. A 30-second advertisementduring the game cost $975,000, nearly double the price for a spot on Sunday Night Football, which was the #1 regularly-scheduled program on TV.[3]

A scoreless first quarter ended with the Patriots driving to the Jets' 3-yard line. The second quarter began with a touchdown pass from Tom Brady to Wes Welker. The Jets answered with a drive to New England's 31-yard line, where a disastrous sequence of plays began. On a 4th down with inches to go, Jets running backShonn Greene rushed up the middle and was tackled short of the first-down marker by Patriots linebacker Brandon Spikes, who forced a fumble by knocking the ball out of Greene's hands. The ball was recovered by Patriots safety Steve Gregory at the Patriots' 17-yard line, for a loss of 14 yards.[4] The Patriots scored on the next play, as running back Shane Vereen ran a wheel route out of the backfield to the left, beating Jets linebacker Bart Scott in man-to-man coverage. Scott was lined up too far inside, and a screen from Welker prevented Scott from reaching Vereen. Vereen caught Brady's pass around the Patriots' 25-yard line, and Vereen sprinted down the sideline for an 83-yard touchdown.[5][6][7]

After a touchback, the Jets' next possession began with an 11-yard completion from Sanchez to Clyde Gates. With 9:10 remaining in the second quarter, the Jets had a 1st and 10 at their own 31-yard line.[8]

The Jets lined up in an I formation, with Sanchez under center. In the backfield were fullback Lex Hilliard and running back Shonn Greene, 4.5 and 7 yards behind the line of scrimmage respectively. Sanchez had called the play in the huddle: a designed handoff to the fullback.[9] Typically in this formation, the running back receives the ball, and the fullback blocks for him. The play call would attempt to misdirect the defense, as Greene would peel away to the left and Hilliard would take a quick handoff to the right.[10]

When Sanchez took the snap, he mistakenly turned to the left, where there was no one to receive the handoff. Trying to salvage the broken play, Sanchez scrambled forward towards the line of scrimmage.[11] At the 32-yard line, as he tried to slide down to protect himself and the ball, Sanchez collided with right guardBrandon Moore, who was working against Patriots defensive tackle Vince Wilfork, and Moore's buttocks dislodged the ball from Sanchez's right arm. As Sanchez was knocked down and Moore fell on top of him, the football bounced out to the right side of the play, near the 32-yard line, directly in front of Patriots safety Steve Gregory, who collected the ball with his fingertips and ran untouched into the Jets' endzone.[8]

With the extra point, the Patriots took a 21–0 lead. On the ensuing kickoff, Jets return specialist Joe McKnight fumbled; the Patriots' Julian Edelman recovered the fumble in mid-air, and returned it 22 yards for yet another touchdown. The Patriots' lead widened to 28–0,[8] as the Patriots scored 21 points in 52 seconds of game time.[22] The TV cameras found Rex Ryan on the sideline exclaiming, "Un-*******-believable!"[10] Some Jets fans left MetLife Stadium; others booed and chanted for backup quarterback Tim Tebow to take over.[23] By the two-minute warning before half time, the score was 35–0, and the stadium loudspeakers played "It Ain't Over 'til It's Over."[24] Fireman Ed left the game before halftime, and he would retire his role as the team's unofficial mascot following the game.[25][26]

The Jets played a better second half, but the Patriots went on to win in a rout, 49–19. NBC awarded the inaugural Madden Thanksgiving Player-of-the-Game to three Patriots players: Vince Wilfork, Steve Gregory, and Tom Brady.[27] Gregory finished the game with two fumble recoveries, one for a touchdown, another forced fumble, and an interception. Brady completed 18 of 27 passes for 323 yards and 3 touchdowns and rushed for another touchdown, earning an NFL passer rating of 144.5 and an ESPN total quarterback rating (QBR) of 82.4. Sanchez went 26 for 36 with 301 yards, one touchdown, one interception, and one fumble, for a passer rating of 94.8 and a QBR of 22.9.[28]

The NBC broadcast began with over 24 million viewers, but viewers tuned out from the game as it turned into a blowout. The broadcast dropped below 15 million by 10 p.m., and it averaged a disappointing 19.2 million viewers—a distant third place to the two earlier games.[29] The game was the second-highest-rated primetime show that week, behind the Sunday Night matchup between the Packers and the Giants.[30]

Including the butt fumble, Sanchez lost the ball 24 times in the 2011 and 2012 seasons. In 2013, the Jets' new quarterbacks coach, David Lee, instituted a program to cut down on the fumbles by teaching Sanchez to hold the ball with both hands. In what Lee calls "The Sanchez Drill," the quarterback runs a gauntlet of people trying to knock the ball out of his hands with foam bats

Listen. Listen. That wasn't in the top 100 sh*ttiest losses of this decade.

Great minds think alike.

Though so do weak minds (hence Fitz Nation).

You're no great mind, and you didn't know anything anyone else didn't know.

You're just a bad "fan" whose been rooting against his own team for weeks now, and is now happy he can now gloat because his team's QB sh*t the bed.

You want a cookie now, because you got exactly what you've been rooting for and wanted, i.e. the Jets to fail horribly?  Here you go, one cookie.

Enjoy it,and go root for the Pats.  You're exactly their kind of fan.

Weeks?  It's been just about a year now I've been calling for Fitz to ride the pine.

And the whole thing about me not being a great mind?..

Most painful loss 'ever' experienced as a Jets fan?  Are you, like 10 years old?  This doesn't crack the top 25.

Never on Fitzpatricks bandwagon you have me mistaken for someone else. 

I support any player in a Jets uniform and i post my displeasure with those who fail

Does the truth hurt you are you looking for an excuse to turn the tables and make this about me 6 INTs 

NEVER ON THE FITZPATRICK BANDWAGON EVER 

what truth? what everybody with more brain cells than you understood? that there is a good and bad Fitzpatrick? that he is a better option than geno smith? that he is prone to bad games? you act like you are proving something. your gloating and taking victory laps while trying to prove that you are right and everybody else is wrong, while everybody you are thumping your chest out already knew the deal? your not even as smart as you come across
