On the bright side: Jets can clinch playoff spot Sunday
yoyodog
The New York Jets (9-3) can clinch a playoff spot this weekend. Here's how,
according to the NFL:
1. The Jets beat the Miami Dolphins; the San Diego Chargers lose/tie to the
Kansas City Chiefs; the Jacksonville Jaguars lose/tie to the Oakland
Raiders.
OR:
2. The Jets win; the Chargers lose/tie; the Indianapolis Colts lose/tie to
the Tennessee Titans.
OR:
3. A Jets tie, and losses by the Chargers and Colts, plus a loss or tie by
the Raiders, would also clinch a spot.

It's really not that much--ignore the Jets tie, since that's so
unlikely, and you want to root against San Diego, Indianapolis, and
Jacksonville. And realistically the Raiders won't beat the Jaguars, so
now you're just looking at the Colts and Chargers to lose.

Of course. We might as well get a giant roll of stamps if the Jets
can't beat the Fins at home, because if they can't win that game the
Jets will need to hire Jim Mora to do their postgame news conference.

Now that is funny, although the type of sick humor to make one turn

Someone remind me never to joke about the Jets' playoff chances again.
And bring me my roll of stamps.

Actually, Burf, what is amazing is how you just pointed out that for all
his failures as a Qb, at times, Sanchez has looked good enough to win.
To me, that indicates with an OC who does not cripple the offense,
Sanchez might be able to helm an offense that averages more than five
points a game (more than the average points per game of our four losses
-- and only one of those four teams was in the top 5 of defense and only
two were, according to Football Outsiders, in the top ten defenses).

They messed up that one too. All I saw on the postgame was Rex.
