Why are people assuming the Jets make the playoffs with a win over Miami?
It's not the case.
Even IF the Jets beat Miami, they will not get in unless Houston beats Tennessee.
And Houston no longer has anything to play for. They are locked into the third seed. In fact, if Houston lays down to Tennessee, they get Tennessee instead of Jets a week later. All the more reason to lay down.
I hate that term, "lay down". I don't think any team ever wants to lay down against a division rival.
Now, will they rest starters with their eye on being as healthy as possible for the playoffs? Possibly.. But it didn't help the Colts a few years ago.
I would not be surprised to see a Houston win and the Jets in the playoffs.
