The New York Jets suck at football, so 84 people will win 98-inch TCL TVs

This year, the New York Jets played the Miami Dolphins in the inaugural NFL Black Friday (the day after Thanksgiving) game. In that matchup, there was a 99-yard interception return by Miami’s Jevon Holland. It was a huge embarrassment for The Jets, and the subsequent loss pretty much ended their (slim) playoff hopes.
