Will the NY Jets actually win a game this season? We explore the team’s recent history of slow starts.

The NY Jets will almost certainly miss the playoffs for the 10th year in a row. When was the last time you expected the Jets to be a competitive team?

With seven games played, the Jets’ regular season is almost halfway over. Let’s take a look at the team’s record through seven games over the past four seasons.

  • 2020: 0-7
  • 2019: 1-6
  • 2018: 3-4
  • 2017: 3-4

Compared to the team’s record through seven games over the past two seasons, starting out 3-4 in 2018 and 2017 doesn’t seem too bad until you realize the team finished 4-12 and 5-11 in those years respectively.
