It’s ugly.
With their loss to the New England Patriots, the New York Jets are now 2-6 and on a five game losing streak. The team is now in 15th place in the 16 team AFC.
1. Kansas City Chiefs (7-0)
2. Houston Texans (6-2, win over BUF)
3. Buffalo Bills (6-2, loss to HOU)
4. Pittsburgh Steelers (5-2)
5. Baltimore Ravens (5-3, 2-2 AFC)
6. Denver Broncos (5-3, 2-3 AFC)
7. Los Angeles Chargers (4-3)
8. Indianapolis Colts (4-4)
9. Cincinnati Bengals (3-5)
10. Miami Dolphins (2-5)
11. Cleveland Browns (2-6, 2-2 AFC)
12. Las Vegas Raiders (2-6, 2-4 AFC, .438 strength of victory)
13. Jacksonville Jaguars (2-6, 2-4 AFC, win over NEP)
14. New England Patriots (2-6, win over NYJ, 2-4 AFC, loss to JAX)
15. New York Jets (2-6, loss to NE, 2-3 AFC)
16. Tennessee Titans (1-6)
There is a logjam of 2-6 teams, but the Jets lose every tiebreaker at the moment.
More to the point, the Jets are now 2.5 games out of the final Playoff spot and 3 behind in the loss column. It’s fair to say this team is cooked.
