"The highlight of the New York Jets' season occurred 17 days ago, when coach Aaron Glenn sprinted the sideline and shook his groove thing to celebrate an improbable, go-ahead touchdown on a blocked field goal in the final two minutes. His disco-era dance went viral. The Jets eventually lost the game 29-27 to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Since then, they've been completely out of rhythm and out of their league, falling into a dreaded, one-team category: Last winless team in the NFL."
"This is the 66th year of the franchise, and the only other time the Jets were the last winless team after at least five games was 2020. That Adam Gase-coached team started 0-13 and finished with a 2-14 record. Even the 1996 Rich Kotite Jets, owners of a franchise-worst 1-15 mark, avoided that indignity during their 0-8 start, thanks to the equally inept Atlanta Falcons."
The New York Jets' season highlight was coach Aaron Glenn sprinting the sideline and dancing after a go-ahead touchdown on a blocked field goal, a moment that went viral despite a 29-27 loss. Since that game, the Jets have fallen out of rhythm and become the NFL's last winless team at 0-5. The franchise has only been in that position once before after five games, in 2020. Past teams of the Jets had worse records but avoided being the last winless team. The team entered the year with a new coaching staff and front office amid nine straight losing seasons, and players showed visible emotion after recent losses.
