The New York Jets found a way… again.
In Week 14, the Jets (3-10) lost in overtime to the Miami Dolphins (6-7) in a 32-26 final.
New York had a good look early just like they did in their loss to the Seattle Seahawks last week. In the end, a loss.
In being defeated for the fourth-straight outing, New York is officially eliminated from the postseason. It’s the 14th-straight year that’s happened to the Jets… which gives them the lead in a pro sports category they will not like.
That was a big talking point following the final whistle.
Here is a national media roundup following the Jets’ OT defeat to the Dolphins:
With a loss today the @nyjets will be eliminated from postseason.. extending the longest playoff drought in all 4 major sports… MLB, NFL, NBA and NHL

The Jets, despite gaining 402 total yds, despite Aaron Rodgers throwing for 339 yds (his first 300-yd game since ’21), despite Garrett Wilson (7-114) & Davante Adams (9-109) notching 100-yd receiving games, lose on opening drive of OT to MIA 32-26.

The Jets have been eliminated from playoff contention but at least you can tune in to Netflix next week and watch their QB do dr*gs in a cabin while he skips practice!

Jets end up losing a game where they could have kicked a field goal with 15 seconds left on the clock. Just another week of sloppy football. https://t.co/gftjQvlQwY
