Jets have entered the playoff discussion all of sudden

http://www.businessinsider.com/jets-playoff-odds-2012-12

he Jets, at 6-7, seriously have a chance to make the playoffs.Here's the simple path:

• They win their last three games
• Pittsburgh loses twice
• Cincinnati loses once

Let's check out the likelihood of each those of bullets happening.
1. They win their last three games. It's 50-50. They've shown the ability to lose to any team at any time, but they play three relative cupcakes to finish out the year. They play the 4-9 Tennessee Titans next week, the 5-8 San Diego Chargers in Week 16, and the 5-8 Buffalo Bills in Week 17.
That doesn't mean they'll win those games, but they'll at least be favored in all of them.
2. Pittsburgh loses twice. It's plausible. The Steelers play Dallas on the road next week, followed by Cincinnati and Cleveland. This team hasn't been playing well at all, and if that slide continues they could give the Jets a chance to sneak into the playoffs.
Also, don't sleep on that Browns game in Week 17. Cleveland is improving every week and has won three-straight. That's a tricky must-win for Pittsburgh if it comes down to it.
3. Cincinnati loses once. It's probable. They have Philly, Pittsburgh, and Baltimore. They'll catch a huge break if the Ravens decide to rest players in that Week 17 game. But Cincy isn't exactly a juggernaut. They'll be underdogs in two of those games, and just have to lose one of them.
So looking at it, you wouldn't bet the house on the Jets grabbing a wild card spot. But it's realistic, surprisingly realistic considering how tumultuous their season has been in general.


If we miss the playoffs and the jets get in tomlin should be fired

 

Just goes to show you how truly pathetic the AFC is this year. That's why the Steelers are still in it!

 

The Jets do hava a chance. I don't think I think their chances, and I sure wouldn't bet on them sweeping, but they do have a chance.
But here's a weird Wild Card Scenario for ya':

The Jet win out got 9-7 and have 7 conf wins, The Colts lose out go 9-7 and have 6 conf wins. The Steelers go 9-7 beats Cincy, but loses to Cle (or loses to Cincy, but finishes ahead of them -- say Cincy loses to Balt) and has 5 conf wins. The Head to Head win over the Jets goes out the window, And it will come down to conf record. The two WC teams will be NYJ #5seed and Indy #6 Seed with the Steelers outside looking in.

 

Your talking about at team that beat the Cardinals 7-6. Then Seattle beat the Cardinals 58-0. The Dirty Sanchez can't even throw for over 100 yards in a game anymore.

Please tell me more on how the Jets can make or even deserve the Playoffs.

 

the colts will win at least one , and they are in (if they beat houston two times they can even win the division ). the 3 teams taht can realistic be at 9 7 battling for one place would be steelers cincy and jets , if we beat cincy we are in otherwise we need cincy lose the other two and jets lose one

 

Even the sorry Titans and Chargers (ahem) can put points on the board - which the Jets have proven time and time again they can't until they get a real QB. I don't see them winning out.
