Jets Tanking Season?

Do they throw it away in hope of young talent?

Oct 19, 2016

The Jets went into the year knowing it wasn't going to be easy to make the playoffs. They had a tough schedule and a rough first half of the season.. but 1-5? We are now getting close to the halfway mark, so in the next game or two depending on the results we need to decide something.. Tank the season?

The Jets are currently 1-5 in the AFC East, which puts them in fourth place. They average 15.8 PPG, which is 32nd in the league. 331.5 yards a game (26th) and 92.5 rush yards a game(21st). They are at an all time low, and with Eric Decker out for the season it is definitely a possibility for them to tank the season and hope to get a better draft pick for the upcoming year when he's healthy and back on the field.

And what about Ryan Fitzpatrick? Five touchdowns and eleven interceptions? We signed him back because of his success last year, but i'd rather trade him for a bucket of balls and a gift card to Tacobell because it's atrocious how he's playing terrible and is arguably the worst starting quarterback in the league.

Even the top notch defense that the Jets are known for is struggling this year. The Jets are allowing an average of 27.3 PPG which is one of the worst in the NFL.

It seems as if everything is going downhill for the New York Jets. Instead of going for a good season and possibly going for 6 wins, why not tank the season in hope to get a better player? These are all things that the Jets need to think about and it has to be done as soon as possible before it's too late.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
