Today's game was their last chance to win a game, and they let the Buffalo Bills drop a 40 burger on them. I sure hope the Johnson's will soon be discussing firing both Maccagnan and Bowles, if they haven't already.

BOTH!!!!!!

Strength of schedule (against) looks like it will be beneficial to the Jets given we play Buffalo again and have faced several teams with losing records like Cleveland, Denver, Indianapolis, Detroit, etc.

Among bad teams the Jets were actually pretty good until recently with losses vs. Miami (twice) and now Buffalo.  They had beaten 3-ish win teams like Detroit, Indy and Denver.

Sad to say but this is what I'll be watching the rest of the way.  There's no doubt we'll be drafting in Top 7 in my opinion.  My guess is that we end up right where we are now at #5.  Not sure we can "out lose" San Fran, Oakland, Arizona or the Giants the rest of the way but you never know!!!

Well done.

[jetstream23]

So we're rooting for SF tonight, right?

That would put them at 3-7 like the Jets.

Wow. Seems like just last season we were rooting for losses, oh wait,, errr damn,

[jetstream23]

Updated with today's results...

Really wanted the Cardinals to win.  The game vs. Oakland today was really their last winnable game.  I think the Cards end up with a Top 2 pick for sure.  Possibly in the Head Coach hunt this offseason as well.  I think Wilks could be a goner.

Assuming things end roughly where they are now I think both Jacksonville and Tampa Bay could be good trade-back candidates as they'd want to jump the Giants for a QB.  Wouldn't that be grand!?!?!?  Slide back a few spots, still get one of the Top 2 Offensive Tackles in the Draft and screw the Giants out of taking the first QB.   

[Jetsbb]

I wanted Raiders to win. #1 pick or bust. There really is no difference between 2-5 anyway

[Jetsbb]

I think there is a very good shot Jets lose out and Cardinals, SF, Raiders win at least one more game

[Drums]

This season is terrible for a lot of teams.

Good to see that this regime has built a roster that can compete for a top 5 pick year in and year out.

[Jets Voice of Reason]

Jets will win a game for no reason and end up picking 6-9 range. You might as well just accept it now.

I disagree.  Picking at 2 vs. 5 gives a LOT of options for trading back and still getting an elite player at a position of need while possibly recouping a 2nd round pick.

[RutgersJetFan]

I don't think we're losing out. Jets have a habit of splitting with Buffalo and the Bills have been pretty unreliable at home this year.

Jets have taken a big dip in efficiency numbers but I think injuries have played a huge part of that. We should be getting healthier right around when we're playing Houston/Bills/Titans. I think we're finishing with 5 or 6 wins. I'm usually all about losing out for higher picks but Darnold finishing the season on a high note would be way, way better than losing out tbh.

I'm fully expecting this to happen (though I'm still rooting for #1 overall)

Picking #1 would be an unbelievable benefit.  Trading back to #5 could still get us the Bama LT plus a boatload of picks.

I'm not sure I see any way they Jets end up with more than 5 wins.  I think 4 looks the most likely with another 5-11 season very possible.

Agree 100% on Darnold.  I still think he can have a successful conclusion to the season even if the Jets finish something like 2-4 over their final 6 games.

This too. But the good news is that this year it's not going to cost us anything all that great. Top of this draft looks like it's mostly DL and DB and **** all that noise. The only offensive players (non-QB) getting projected top-10 are OT, and I think that's worth missing out on if it helps Darnold. If all the WR's grade out for the mid-first we're fine.

Jesus, I hope we don’t finish with 6 wins, Toilet will get another extension then!

Agreed. I want to pick where it's a "no brainer" to pick an OL instead of defense. If we pick top 2 we aren't going to be able to trade out and will probably pick a pass rusher. As much as I want Bosa, we need offense.

Jets have a strong history of winning meaningless winter games. It's actually one of the few things they do well.

I think people are underrating how slightly below average this team is when it's healthy. They're not that good but they're not that terrible either when all of the guys are out there. Not a playoff team but certainly enough to give Houston or Tennessee a game. Wouldn't pencil either in as L's just yet.

Jets finish out 3-3 and I guarantee you Chris Johnson will be trying to figure out how to explain away keeping Bowles. You have to remember Chris gave him a two year extension not one. That means he wants to keep him badly.

Fair point.

They somehow found ways to beat Detroit, Denver and Indy.  Indy looks very good and we beat them in a shootout.  Denver just beat a Top 4 LA Chargers team.

The Jets are completely schizophrenic.  How do you beat Indianapolis and then lose by 30 to Buffalo a couple weeks later?  To me it is very clearly coaching as the main cause and roster depletion/injuries a close second.

Just looked at our final 6 games remaining

vs. Pats

@ Titans

@ Bills

vs. Texans

vs. Packers

@ Pats

We're definitely not losing out. I think we beat the Bills at the very least. The Titans and Texans run hot and cold. And that Week 17 game against NE may come down to if there's playoff implications. If the Pats are locked in, they may rest their players.

I predict the Jets will lose to NE out the bye week, lose to Tennessee, beat Buffalo & Houston, then lose to Green Bay.

Whether or not the Pats rest their starters will determine whether we finish 5-11 or 6-10. Taking a quick look at the standings though, and the Pats will have competition for a 1st round bye. So pencil us in for a 5-11 finish

[NYallDay]

I hope the giants keep winning. then have to trade up with us. we get either the 1st or 2nd pick and take the giants for all they're worth! muahahahahah ?

[King P]

Just looked at the other teams schedule. Whew, the Raiders and Cardinals have a very tough schedule going forward. I can't see us leapfrogging them in the draft. The 49ers have some winnable games, but I'm willing to bet they finish with a worse record than us.

I think the best pick we can end up with is 3rd, but the most likely outcome is us ending with the 4th or 5th pick. And maybe lower, because I didn't even look at the schedules of the other 3-7 or 4-6 teams that could potentially leapfrog us by seasons end

Watch us go 3-12 and then Belichick alters his decision-making to let use win so we don't get the top pick in the draft.  That seems like the kind of scenario that would play out for this franchise.
