And even with our broken quarterback, the Jets would make the playoffs had:

1. The defense held onto a 4th quarter lead with 90 seconds remaining in New England.

2. The defense and special teams not handed a backup quarterback the game vs. Miami.

Two division games, one set-up for one simple defensive stop, the other a catastrophic secondary/ST breakdown, both could have been wins, we'd be looking at 10-6 this very day, awful Sanchez or no awful Sanchez.

But either way, no difference. This team was making no noise in the playoffs anyway. Our season ended in July when our HC and GM decided not to invest a lick in our offense.

A simple defensive stop against the Pats? Ask the Texans D how simple stopping the Pats offense is...
