FLORHAM PARK, N.J. -- How did it get this bad?
First, a quick history lesson on the New York Jets: Since 2011, the start of their active playoff drought, no team has produced fewer points or yards than the Jets, who have been undermined by a revolving door of failed quarterbacks and offensive coordinators.
So what's happening now -- only eight touchdowns in nine games, none in the last 11 quarters -- isn't exactly a sudden downturn. Except for one productive season in 2015, which could be termed a cadaveric spasm, the Jets have been lifeless on offense for more than a decade.
