New York Jets: The Jets are officially eliminated from playoff contention

The New York Jets knew going into the season they were not going to make the playoffs. It is set and stone now. It’s official, the Jets are mathematically eliminated from playoff contention on Sunday.

What had to happen?

A few things needed to take place before the Jets were mathematically out of the playoffs. The Jets needed to lose to the Chargers, they did. The Chargers beat the Jets 34-28. The Miami Dolphins or the Indianapolis Colts had to win their game. The Dolphins lost to the Denver Broncos, but the Colts beat the Packers.
