FLORHAM PARK, N.J. -- The New York Jets are executing one of the greatest tanks in the history of tank-dom, except this isn't by design. They're not trying to lose, but it comes so naturally it seems as if they've mastered a plan to secure the No. 1 pick in the 2021 NFL draft.
Not only are they three losses away from becoming the third 0-16 team in NFL history (the others are the 2008 Detroit Lions and 2017 Cleveland Browns), but the Jets are sinking into "all-time bad" territory.
