NFL Power Rankings Week 16: Seahawks Bury Rams on TNF

27. New York Jets (4-10)

Things went from bad to worse for the New York Jets on Saturday night. Not only did they completely stall offensively after grabbing an early lead, but quarterback Bryce Petty was the meat in a sandwich, with Ndamukong Suh and Cameron Wake being the bread. Petty was ultimately unable to finish the game due to injury. One of the lone bright spots in this game for New York was running back Bilal Powell, who caught 11 passes and totaled 162 yards from scrimmage. However, that only helped fantasy football players as the Jets once again looked like a team that has given up on its coach and is just playing out the string.

While all indications are that head coach Todd Bowles will keep his job, the Jets have to at least be considering a change after this season. Bowles has clearly lost this team and the franchise has taken a giant step back after going 10-6 in 2015. Petty doesn’t appear to be the answer after another uninspiring performance, and there are also doubts about rookie quarterback Christian Hackenberg, who has yet to take a snap in the NFL this season. Regardless of what the Jets do at head coach, it’s clear major changes are afoot for this lost organization and there could be plenty of veterans on their way out the door, with Ryan Fitzpatrick and Brandon Marshall being among them. Bottom line: it’s back to the drawing board for Gang Green.
