Jets

The emotional rollercoaster

Fan misery across the game window. Up is worse.

What happened

W.McDonald's blocked field goal and recovery at the 50 was the kind of miracle that's supposed to flip a season, a +0.423 swing that briefly made the Jets the story. Instead the defense gave B.Mayfield 1:36 to walk into C.McLaughlin range, capped by a 28-yard strike to E.Egbuka that made the 36-yarder a formality. Stealing a win that cruelly is a specific skill, and somehow this team keeps finding new ways to be on the wrong end of it.

What fans said

• “Coming back in a seemingly hopeless game, blocking a kick and returning it for a touchdown to take a lead, then letting the other team easily drive down the field and kick a game winning field goal.”
