This time of year is always about the fringe playoff teams hoping to scratch their way into the playoffs. Here are six teams in three games in that situation.
New York Jets (6-5) at New York Giants (5-6)
Both of these New York teams are relevant, yet not dominant. And both teams are currently on the outside of the playoff picture looking in, but with plenty of opportunities to get back into the top six seeds in their division.
The Jets are just one game out and a win, coupled with losses by the Houston Texans or Kansas City Chiefs, would put them right back in it.
