The Jets had an opportunity to gain some breathing room in the AFC playoff picture, especially after the New England Patriots lost on Thursday to drop to 6-6. But like the Patriots on Thanksgiving, the Jets were not able to steal a win in Minnesota, as red-zone failures doomed them to a 27-22 loss to the Vikings to drop to 7-5.
While the Jets didn’t get the win, they did get help from the creators of “Just win, baby”. The Raiders scored their third straight win by beating the Chargers 27-20, dropping the Chargers to 6-6 and keeping the Jets as the last team in with five weeks left.
