The Jets’ 2025 season has become one long revenge-fueled humiliation ritual

The New York Jets’ 2025 season is starting to feel like one extended humiliation tour with revenge narratives sprinkled in. Every week, it feels like another familiar face is lining up across from them, representing another reminder of what’s gone wrong, who’s gotten away, and how cyclical this franchise’s misery has become.

The next chapter in this seemingly never-ending revenge tour seems likely to come in Cincinnati in a few weeks. That's because the Bengals, who play the Jets in Week 8, acquired veteran quarterback Joe Flacco in a trade with the Cleveland Browns on Tuesday.
