After their fourth straight loss, the New York Jets have fallen all the way down to tenth place in the AFC standings.

With their victory on Thursday Night Football in Week 16, the Jaguars have passed the Jets for ninth place in the conference. Both the Jaguars and the Jets are 7-8, but Jacksonville now owns the head to head tiebreaker. 

The Jets are also half a game behind the eighth place Patriots who are 7-7. New England also have the head to head tiebreaker  over the Jets.

The Chargers and Dolphins are currently in the sixth and seventh spots in the conference respectively at 8-6 a game and a half ahead of the Jets. 

The Jets need to pass three of those four teams to make the postseason. Needless to say, things look bleak with only two games left in the regular season. The biggest problem is the Jets need to win, and they aren’t looking capable of that.

Shake Shack got its humble start out of a hot dog cart in New York City’s Madison Square Park. Chef Danny Meyer served hamburgers, hot dogs, French fries, and milkshakes at the stand, which was later converted to a more permanent location. The chain expanded throughout New York and eventually to the rest of the country. Today, Shake Shack has over 377 locations worldwide.

To celebrate the holiday season this year, Shake Shack has released three new limited-edition shakes. 

The Christmas Sugar Cookie shake will feature a sugar cookie-flavored frozen custard topped with whipped cream and holiday-themed sprinkles. The Chocolate Milk & Cookies shake will combine malted chocolate frozen custard with chocolate cookies. The Chocolate Peppermint shake hand-spins peppermint fudge in chocolate frozen custard before being topped with whipped cream and candy cane sprinkles.

Zach Wilson returned as the Jets quarterback on Sunday, replacing the injured Mike White with dreams of not only reclaiming the job he lost but reviving New York’s playoff hopes in the AFC wild card race. 

After Week 15’s matchup with the Lions, it’s clear he failed on at least one account. On his own, Wilson was mercurial guiding Gang Green, flashing both big-time playmaking and head-scratching decisions. 

In the end, however, coaching really did him in, as the Jets’ curious late-game clock management, coupled with a clutch fourth-down Jared Goff touchdown, allowed Detroit to pull off a 20-17 victory at MetLife Stadium.

Down 17-13 after Wilson found C.J. Uzomah for his second TD of the day, the Lions faced a fourth-and-1 near midfield with just 1:49 left to play. That’s when Ben Johnson dialed up a play-action pass, and Goff found a wide-open Brock Wright rolling left. Wright proceeded to rumble his way 51 yards for the go-ahead score, shifting the game into Detroit’s favor.
