JohnnyLV Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 Just did a bunch of different scenarios in the playoff generator and essentially we do not beat either Pitt or KC if we are tied with them. So for the Jets to make the playoffs there are two paths: 1. Win out and KC or Pitt lose 1 2. Win 3 (any) and either KC or Pitt Lose 2 So pretty much a simple scenario, but we are in a tough spot and could miss the playoffs at 10-6 or even 11-5. KC: Baltimore, Cleveland, Oakland Pitt: Denver, Balt, Cleveland Most lose-able games are Oakland for KC and Denver (in a bounce back) Past that, both play Balt and Cleveland, so for the next 3 weeks root really hard for Balt and Cleveland to be spoilers.

Tinstar Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 Why not just go with the Jets need to win all their games and be done with it. Whom on our schedule should defeat us if we don't give them the game ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SAR I Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 Just did a bunch of different scenarios in the playoff generator and essentially we do not beat either Pitt or KC if we are tied with them.

Win 3 (any) and either KC or Pitt Lose 2 So pretty much a simple scenario, but we are in a tough spot and could miss the playoffs at 10-6 or even 11-5. You need to start looking at recent developments in Denver and Cincinnati. If KC, PIT, and NYJ all get to 11-5 and DEN loses one game the Jets become the 6 seed and DEN is out. There are other ways to the playoffs if hot KC or PIT win their divisions. http://espn.go.com/nfl/playoffs/machine SAR I Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hofstra Jets Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 How does this work? Denver has 3 losses. 1 loss, and us at 11-5 is not 12-4.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just doing the same thing actually. Kind of sucks because Pitt and KC have easy schedules. We needed both of them to lose today. If Denver beats Pitt, then we need some weird divisional jinx with Clev or Balt beating Pitt as well. Doesn't like likely on paper but divisional games sometimes defy the odds.

WillyBoy620 Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 We win out AND Den loss VS PITT and SD & win VS CINN....we are in at that point Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K_O_Brien Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 Things can change quickly in the week by week NFL. Three games back we were 5-5 with many of us dreading a visit by the Miami Dolphins. Who knows where we will stand in three games time? I wouldn't write off the Ravens or Browns doing us a favour. Or someone else. I remember in Mangini's first season when the hapless 49ers won on the road as 11 point dogs in Denver in week 17 to help us out. There will beat least one head-scratcher of a result somewhere along the line. We just need to ensure it doesn't happen in Dallas next Saturday and take it from there.

WillyBoy620 Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 All 3 are not very likely to win out. i agree but not trying to be doom and gloom here....most likely all three teams will go 3-1. with that we are on outside looking in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

j4jets Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 These scenarios never go as planed. KC isn't a world beater, they struggled today. Yeah KC has been on fire lately, but they are quickly running out of gas and I don't think they will win out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's not start going for 2 in the 3rd Quarter. Just keep focused on what we can control. A lot can change in a few weeks time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hael Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 Yeah KC has been on fire lately, but they are quickly running out of gas and I don't think they will win out. realistically we have to win out. If we lose one we will need a lot of miracles to happen. It's not impossible at that point but it just doesn't seem likely. KC, Denver and Pitt are not losing two games each. i think we can easily take Dallas. I think their team has given up at this point. The worry of course is NE and Buffalo. I would have felt better about the NE game if they had been guaranteed home field, but at this point correct me if I'm wrong, but they won't have it unless Cinci and Denver both lose next week and they win. Anyway it is what it is. Gut check time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
afosomf Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 Pitt is winning out, Denver cannot score points with Pitt, KC's tuffest game will be Oak in arrowhead Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamesr Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 If Jets and Pitt both end on 10-6, and the Jet loss is to Dallas, then we overtake Pitt on the conference record tie-break. Unlikely, but you never know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
