New York Jets Become First Team Eliminated from Playoff Contention

NFL: New England Patriots at New York JetsIt has been a season to not only forget for the New York Jets, but it has been one to pick up, crunch up and toss into a burning dumpster far, far away.

Playing in a city like New York comes with the price of being heavily scrutinized for the quality of the product that is put on the field every game, every week. The 2020 NFL campaign has been a nightmare for the Jets.

To start, their Head Coach Adam Gase seems like a dead man walking, as nobody really understands just how he still is employed for the organization, With their most recent loss on Sunday to the Los Angeles Chargers, the Jets hold a record of 0-10, the league worst, meaning their is no mathematical way possible for this team to make the playoffs this season.

If it wasn’t already bad enough for the team, rumours continue to swirl about how things are in the locker room. Reports suggest that the players don’t believe they are going to win a game, and that they all don’t understand how Coach Gase still has his job.

Other reports suggest that the players think if Gase had even been replaced weeks ago, at maybe 0-5 or 0-6, that they could’ve already won a game, maybe even two.

For Jets fans in New York and around the world, it is just the latest instalment of failure into  a book for even more recent failure for the franchise.

As comes with being the worst team in the National Football League every season, their is a smidge of light at the end of the tunnel, and lucky for the Jets, this is a pretty darn good year to be 0-10 (yes, I said that).

A blue-chip prospect awaits in the shadows, a franchise altering superstar potential player. Labelled as “can’t miss” and “showstopping,” Trevor Lawrence from the University of Clemson is set to enter the NFL Draft, where he is projected to be the clear cut number one overall selection.

As the Jets would have to be out of their minds to not select Lawrence, decisions await on what they will do with young developing Quarterback Sam Darnold, who they selected third overall in the 2018 Draft.
