Seahawks Annihilate Jets into Oblivion, New York Now 0-13

SEAHAWKS 40 - JETS 3

It had to be one big joke to former Jets safety Jamal Adams. The once disgruntled safety who talked his way out of New York after Jets General Manager Joe Douglas didn't offer him a contract extension, exacted vengence on his old club as his Seahawks destroyed Gang Green 40-3 on Sunday.

It was absolute train wreck for Gang Green in every shape and form. After the Jets took an early 3-0 lead, their only lead of the entire game, and the sixth straight game where the Jets scored on their opening possession, it was all Seahawks after that.

Adams, who said earlier in the week he held no ill will toward Adam Gase, but took a back handed attack at his old team saying he is in a good place now, recorded five tackles, a tackle for loss, a deflected pass and a sack of quarterback Sam Darnold. The sack came when Adams flushed Darnold out of bounds, giving him 8.5 sacks on the season - a record for a defensive back.

So much for a box safety, eh Mr. Douglas?

Even ex-Jet Damien "Snacks" Harrison got into the act and recorded six tackles on his former club.

The Jets offense was once again putrid. Darnold threw for 132 yards and had a quarterback rating of 68.1. With each passing week Darnold gets worse and worse and worse. He is a total shell of the quarterback he once was.

Defensively the Jets were torched by Russell Wilson, who threw four touchdown passes on 21-of-26 passing. Guess Adam Gase was in his right to fire Gregg Williams; the defense never looked better getting torched by another team (insert sarcasm).

At 0-13 the Jets are on the fast track to 0-16. They have the 9-4 Rams next week. The Rams pack one of the league's best defenses. They just thrashed the Patriots on Thursday night; imagine what they will do to the Jets. After that the Jets host Cleveland (9-3) and visit the 6-7 Patriots. This is going to be a disaster of epic proportion.

Whats more, according to ESPN's Rich Cimini the Jets have the second worst defeat margin of all the winnless teams in NFL history at minus -16.2 ppg. Only the 1976 Tampa Bay Buccaneers who went 0-14 were worse at minus -20.5 ppg. Great job Jets, keep it up.

Jets, Dolphins and Patriots Playoff Breakdown

Here are the formuli that could get the Jets into and out of the playoff party this season: 1) If the Jets win against Seattle and Miami, they win the AFC East based on a better conference record (8-4) than the New England Patriots, even if New England wins out as well. 2) If the Patriots win out and the Dolphins win out and finish at 11-5, the Jets would be 10-6, or 9-7, and probably out of the playoffs. Both New England and Miami would make the playoffs, with the Dolphins as a divison winner and the Patriots as a wild card. The Patriots make the postseason if Baltimore loses one of its final two games. 3) If the Patriots win out and the Dolphins and Jets split, then the Patriots win the AFC East. The Jets will have to hope that they beat Miami to win that tie-breaker and, further, hope that they have a better conference record than the Baltimore Ravens in order to clinch the sixth seed. 4) If the Patriots and Ravens win out and the Dolphins and Jets split their final two games, then ...

Francisco Lindor Remains Red Hot as Mets Top Phillies

Francisco Lindor remains the hottest player in Queens right now. The Mets shortstop blasted two more home runs, including a three-run blast in the bottom of the eighth inning, Monday night to help propel the Mets to a 5-4 win over Philadelphia. Lindor who typically struggles in the month of April is putting together a heck of a month. Monday's two hit effort was the 10th game in the last 11 where Lindor has recorded a hit. In fact in the month of April alone this year, Lindor was hitting at .311 coming into Monday's action. On the year, Lindor is batting .284 with five homers and 13 RBI. Lindor's efforts proved to be prophetic, as the Phillies Alec Bohm crushed a three-run bomb off Edwin Diaz in the top of the ninth to cut the Mets lead to a single run. Fortunately for New York, Diaz was able to shut the door with strikeouts of Trea Turner and Bryce Harper. New York (16-7) has now won five in a row.

Is Aaron Glenn in Danger of Getting Fired?

According to Pro Football Talk's Mike Florio there is a "chance" that Jets head coach Aaron Glenn could be fired at seasons end. While Florio doesn't site any sources, the rumor has caught fire the last two days. The question is would it make sense? Let's examine this for a second? Why it Makes Sense: Glenn has not been great in his first year as Head Coach of this team. The talent has taken a major step backwards, granted two of those talented players were traded away in Sauce Gardner to Indianapolis and Quinnen Williams to Dallas. The decision he and GM Darren Mougey made to give Justin Fields a two year deal proved to be a horrible mistake, and Glenn stuck with Fields for far too long before pulling the plug following the Jets loss to the Patriots on a Thursday night in mid November. Glenn gave now former Defensive Coordinator Steve Wilks too much power to run the defense, and the players couldn't stand Wilks. Reports indicated this week af...
