Jets continue NFL’s longest playoff drought, but they’re only a quarterback away

The last time the New York Jets made the playoffs, it was the 2010 season. Rex Ryan was the head coach, Mark Sanchez was the quarterback, LaDainian Tomlinson was the primary running back, Darrelle Revis was in his fourth season, and Jim Leonhard was patrolling the secondary along with Revis. Now, Ryan and Sanchez are television analysts, Revis is coming up on his first year of Hall of Fame eligibility, Tomlinson is in the Hall of Fame, and Leonhard is the Wisconsin Badgers’ interim head coach after a highly successful stint as the team’s defensive coordinator.

What we’re saying is that it’s been a long time since the New York Jets rocked and roiled in the postseason.
