0-7.
That was the New York Jets’ record in games decided by six points or fewer in the 2024 season.
They were the only NFL team to go winless in these games.
This can happen for a variety of reasons, but one of the main culprits for the Jets was their kicking. Across their seven losses by six points or fewer, New York missed four field goals and two extra points. That’s 14 points taken off the board over a stretch of games in which they were outscored by 25 points.
One would think the kicker position would be treated with the utmost importance after a season like this.
