Remember when the New York Jets lost to the Miami Dolphins? The season was over. The Dolphins, at that point, were winless, and the only win the Jets recorded was against the THEN 3-2 Dallas Cowboys. 1-7 at week 9 in the season, all was lost, and everyone was calling for coach Adam Gase’s head.
Then they beat the New York Giants, in a game that was dubbed the “poop” bowl. Then, they beat the Washington Redskins, who scored their first touchdown as a team in… well, it was over a season. Both games weren’t really considered “quality wins” when you look at the teams.
