The New York Jets have a chance to play spoiler in their regular-season finale against the Miami Dolphins. If the Jets pull the upset, Miami is out of the playoffs. In fact, the Jets can climb out of the AFC East basement and send the Dolphins to last place if they can win in Miami. The question is: will it actually happen?
For starters, Joe Flacco is the quarterback, which doesn’t exactly heighten anyone’s hopes. Then there’s the offensive line situation. With Duane Brown, George Fant and Nate Herbig all out, the Jets will be starting Cedric Ogbuehi, Mike Remmers and either Dan Feeney or Laurent Duvernay-Tardif along with Connor McGovern and Laken Tomlinson. That’s not exactly a strong group and the Jets have very little depth behind those six with two practice squad call-ups in Eric Smith and Adam Pankey.
