The Jets have stepped back from the abyss and avoided complete misfortune by following a three-game meltdown against the Patriots, Jaguars and previously winless Dolphins with back-to-back victories for the first time in more than a year.
So at least there's that.
At 3-7, there's no realistic path to the playoffs, but there is still meaning to the Jets' last six games. With a newly issued vote of confidence from CEO Christopher Johnson, Adam Gase can continue to prove that Johnson didn't err by taking his coach off the hook so quickly. And with recently hired general manager Joe Douglas eventually working on an offseason roster reconstruction, he can get a better read on exactly what he needs based off how his team performs the rest of the way.
