Lightbulb Reality check - the Jets are far from done

Reality check - the Jets are far from done
By: John Morgan

Many believe that the Jets playoff chances were finished after their loss to the Pats last week - but is that truly an accurate assessment?...

They're not completely out of it, but food for thought: according to playoffstatus.com, if the JEST go 10-6 (5-1 the rest of the way), they only have a 50-50 chance of making the playoffs. If the Pats go 4-3 the rest of the way, ending up 10-6, they have an 87% chance of making the playoffs.

Lets be real here, the Jets aren't making the playoffs. The Giants will beat them and they are bound to slip up along the rest of the way. They aren't a good team.

I'm still giddy from seeing them lose two games in less than a week in which they were favored.

Yeah, that is one of their biggest problems this year. They have no identity or swagger.

I have counted the Jets out because they have yet to show they can beat anyone good and playing well. They have beaten the bad teams and teams in a mist of slump.

And, of course, the games that they win because the other team inexplicably stats playing like cr*p.

That said, do you think Lady Tom would have made a difference against the Denver Tebows?

They just lost to Denver- after watching that game, I dunno how anyone could be thinking that they have a shot at running the table.

I can understand that the Jets have a much easier remaining schedule than the Ravens, Bengals and Titans do, and also that one AFCN team like the Bengals could get knocked out of the race by playing all those division games.

However, the Jets seem to be built so much on emotion - confidence and swagger - that I don't think they have the intestinal fortitude to persevere and bounce back. Obviously, as pointed out things can change dramatically in just a week or two, but right now I see as no better than the 4th most likely team to be a wild card, behind Baltimore, Cincy, and Tennessee.

Far from done?

If 2 losses out of the next 6 games is "far" then yeah- you're right.
