The New York Jets somehow, some way upset the Philadelphia Eagles to hand them their first loss of the season. Here's where it ranks with the Jets' other top recent wins.
Yes, it was an incredible win for the Jets, closing out a remarkable first six weeks of football. The Jets lost Aaron Rodgers after four plays, they lost three games in a row, looking utterly defeated after a loss to the Patriots, only to rally with two straight wins to arrive at the bye at 3-3 and in the thick of the AFC playoff race.
There have been a lot of impactful moments in the past six weeks. But there was something that stood out about Sunday’s win over the Eagles. It was hard to see coming, but it’s the kind of win that feels like it could change everything, because the Jets know they can play with anybody now, even if they don’t have their top stars on the field — Sunday’s win came without starting corners Sauce Gardner and D.J. Reed.
It was a special win. But where does it stack up with the Jets’ best wins since their last trip to the postseason in 2010?5. Jets 27, Packers 10 — Oct. 16, 2022Defining moment:The Jets’ 2022 season ended up being a lesson in futility and frustration. But that’s only because for the first time in seven years the Jets were able to play well enough to raise the expectations high enough for everyone to believe. And this game was a big part of the excitement.
The Jets had just dropped their first devastating game to the Patriots and now they were trying to keep things together . And this was the game that established the super high expectations which made the end-of-the-season collapse so much more frustrating. Still, the Jets takedown of Allen, completed by Bryce Huff’s strip sack which left the Bills quarterback hurting for the rest of the season.
