Smashmouth Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 Not only did we get a rare blowout BUT everyone we needed to lose today lost So now we are the 6th seed. Oakland and Cincy Lost and since they beat us head to head it could not have been better ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You want The Broncos to Win that division since they hold Tiebreakers aganist us but I guess it would not matter because Oakland holds the tie breakers on us as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JustInFudge Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 Dont get your hopes up, this team is not going to the playoffs. They lose at least 2 more games this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JustInFudge Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 What's with the negative vibes dude? Its obvious to me they arent going to win out which I think is necessary. I have no faith in this team beating Philly or the Giants and the Dolphags will be having the SB on New Years Day - especially if they are playing spoiler. When was the last time the Jets won 6 games in a row, let alone 8. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott Dierking Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 Cincy too, no? As I understand things, and it may be wrong, the jets, if they tie with Cincy (and as long as their loss is to the Eagles or the Giants), win a tiebreaker over the Bengals. Not sure why, as they would then have the same conference record. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They win 2 out of the next 3 and go to the playoffs at 10- 6 if the Jets go 2-3 the other teams looking to grab the 6th spot must go 3-0 and I dont see that happening.

whodeawhodat Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 if we play like we are capable, we win out. We are a better team than the rest left on our schedule. Noone says that we have to lose a game because we havent lost in a couple of weeks just for that reason. If Rex has the jets hitting on all cylinders like we were last year in the playoffs we steam roll the rest of our games with the Giants being the only team that has the personnel to match up with us imo. Philly is a close second to the gmen. The leonard injury is scary BUT we dealt with it last year and it has to help us this year. Has to...

shawn306 Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 TO BREAK A TIE FOR THE WILD-CARD TEAM If it is necessary to break ties to determine the two Wild-Card clubs from each conference, the following steps will be taken. If the tied clubs are from the same division, apply division tie breaker. If the tied clubs are from different divisions, apply the following steps. Two Clubs Head-to-head, if applicable. Best won-lost-tied percentage in games played within the conference. Best won-lost-tied percentage in common games, minimum of four. Strength of victory. Strength of schedule. Best combined ranking among conference teams in points scored and points allowed. Best combined ranking among all teams in points scored and points allowed. Best net points in conference games. Best net points in all games. Best net touchdowns in all games. Coin toss. Three or More Clubs (Note: If two clubs remain tied after third or other clubs are eliminated, tie breaker reverts to step 1 of applicable two-club format.) Apply division tie breaker to eliminate all but the highest ranked club in each division prior to proceeding to step 2. The original seeding within a division upon application of the division tie breaker remains the same for all subsequent applications of the procedure that are necessary to identify the two Wild-Card participants. Head-to-head sweep. (Applicable only if one club has defeated each of the others or if one club has lost to each of the others.) Best won-lost-tied percentage in games played within the conference. Best won-lost-tied percentage in common games, minimum of four. Strength of victory. Strength of schedule. Best combined ranking among conference teams in points scored and points allowed. Best combined ranking among all teams in points scored and points allowed. Best net points in conference games. Best net points in all games. Best net touchdowns in all games.

No . but since we are 1 game ahead of all the other WC teams fightiong for the 6th spot if we win out we are in. If we go 2 out of 3 one of the other teams must win out to beat us out for the 6th spot . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GimmeShelter Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 Do the Jets get in if they don't win out?

LionelRichie Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 In looking at the schedules I honestly think the Titans have the best shot for the 2nd wild card spot. However, in typical Jet fashion I could see them somehow backing in and making some noise in the postseason. I know that all of the games count the same but the Denver debacle is really the killer. A win at Denver and playoffs are about guaranteed by now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FloridaJetsFan Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 Okay, I agree. My "issue" is this whole "6 straight wins" thing, which is a prediction. Should the Jets win 6 straight, I doubt anyone would suggest they "backed in" as brettw4rd suggests. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
