The Jets had all the momentum in the world. Then they came crashing back to earth.
A strong first quarter had Gang Green in solid shape for a Week 15 win, but the team fell apart on both sides of the ball and once again allowed their opponent to put up over 30 points. The Dolphins had no problem coming back on their home turf, winning 31-24 following a second-half collapse by New York.
What looked to be a promising day resulted in the Jets’ 11th loss of the season. The Dolphins, meanwhile, extended their winning streak to six and improved to .500.
