This Jets loss will linger.
An inability to find the end zone, both early and late, and too many third-down slip-ups sealed Gang Green’s fate in a devastating 27-22 defeat at the hands of the Vikings in Minneapolis. The Jets twice battled back from double-digit deficits and twice had a chance to win the game in the waning moments. But they head home with a result they will likely rue for some time. And one that could keep them out of the playoffs in the end.
The Jets’ second and last gasp failed when quarterback Mike White was picked off inside Vikings territory with seconds to go.
