How to watch the New York Jets and the NFL this season without cable, Week 6 preview

Here’s everything you need to know to watch the Jets’ Week 6 game against the Dolphins.

The New York Jets will face their second division opponent of the season when they head south to take on the Miami Dolphins.

Originally, these two teams were not supposed to play until Week 10. However, due to NFL schedule changes, this game was moved up to Week 6 and the second game was moved to Week 12.

New York will likely be without Mekhi Becton (shoulder) for a second consecutive game, as he’s listed as doubtful. Sam Darnold (shoulder) is also doubtful with Joe Flacco getting the nod at quarterback for a second straight game.

Bless Austin (calf), Alex Lewis (shoulder), John Franklin-Myers (foot), Quinnen Williams (ankle) and Breshad Perriman (ankle) are questionable, but all are expected to play.

Here’s everything you need to know to watch Sunday’s ballgame as well as information for the rest of the Jets’ 2020 season.

Sam Darnold not worried about people sleeping on the Jets

Sam Darnold isn’t worried about the people who are underestimating the Jets in 2020.

Sam Darnold is blocking out all the outside noise as the Jets look to improve upon their 7-9 record this season.

Darnold spoke to the media on Wednesday and was asked if he thought people are underestimating the Jets this season after they went 6-2 over the final eight games last season. Darnold said people can think what they want about the Jets, but that’s not really the team’s concern.

“We’re not really worried about that,” Darnold said. “If people want to sleep on us, they can sleep on us. We’re fine. We’re just worried about what we’ve got to do here.”

It is understandable why people are down on the Jets this year given their schedule. They’re facing the second-toughest slate in the league behind only the Patriots based on their opponents win percentages from last season (.533).

As for the Jets’ 6-2 finish last season, it did come against the bottom feeders of the league. The Jets beat the Giants, Washington, Raiders, Dolphins, Steelers and Bills. All of those teams except for the Bills failed to make the playoffs in 2019.

The Jets are only going to go as far as Darnold takes them in 2020. He had his ups and his downs last season, but the Jets need him to put it all together in year three. Darnold has to produce consistent numbers if this team is going to win this season.

A lot is riding on Darnold’s shoulders, so if he doesn’t want people sleeping on the Jets he’ll have to prove that he can be the franchise quarterback Gang Green believes he is.

Get ready for another long season of Jets football

Jets Wire breaks down why 2020 could be another long year at One Jets Drive.

Hope has been the theme of the offseason for the Jets, but it’s going to take a lot more than that to overcome a daunting 2020 schedule.

Joe Douglas did a nice job addressing needs in free agency. He did an even better job in his first NFL draft as a general manager, landing New York a handful of players that can make an instant impact. Sam Darnold now has an upgraded crop of offensive linemen protecting him and two new weapons at wide receiver. Gregg Williams has numerous new defenders with track records of success that he can plug into his scheme.

Gang Green’s strong offseason, combined with the way the team ended in 2019, has given Jets fans reason to hope with the 2020 season approaching. Last season went off the rails due in large part to Darnold missing games at the beginning of the season, injuries on both sides of the ball and porous offensive line play throughout the year. With Darnold back for his third season, reinforcements in the trenches arriving and a clean team bill of health entering training camp, what is keeping the Jets from being a contender in 2020?

The simple answer is their schedule.

New York’s schedule this upcoming season is the second hardest in the NFL. The Jets have to take on both the Kansas City Chiefs and San Francisco 49ers, last year’s participants in the Super Bowl. They have to play the Seattle Seahawks on the road, a grueling task for any team. They also have to go up against the AFC South favorite Indianapolis Colts, an upstart Denver Broncos squad and Aaron Donald and the Los Angeles Rams.

Oh yeah, and they still have to play the Buffalo Bills and New England Patriots a total of four times.

Unless Darnold takes a major step forward after two up-and-down seasons, the offensive line can consistently keep him clean and the pass defense drastically improves, the Jets are going to have issues competing in 2020. That might be a harsh take, but one that is extremely realistic considering the challenges New York will face throughout the season.

The Jets open the year on the road at Buffalo, a place they seldom win. They then host the defending NFC Champions, travel to Indianapolis to take on a Colts team that has the talent to win a division title and welcome the Broncos to town for a Thursday Night Football showdown in Week 4.

There is a legitimate possibility New York starts 2020 with an 0-4 record (or worse if you look further down the schedule). Unlike last season, there is no soft second-half slate to fall back on. Things only get harder as the season progresses. If a slow start occurs, it is going to be extremely tough for Adam Gase’s team to dig their way out of any sort of hole.

Let’s be clear — the 2020 season is not a lost cause. The Jets do have the talent to win games. It just remains to be seen if they can get it done against teams that are already established winners with Gase running the show. His track record indicates that it is unlikely to happen.

Anything can happen on any given Sunday. That is why the game is played. With that being, it might be time to gear up for another rough season at One Jets Drive. Based on the schedule and the deficiencies on the coaching staff and roster, it’s hard to really believe this is going to be the year the Jets get it right.

Jets, Dolphins scheduled for a quirk the NFL hasn’t seen in nearly 30 years

The New York Jets and Miami Dolphins will play in consecutive games for the first time in the NFL since 1991.

The New York Jets and Miami Dolphins are going to do something in 2020 that the NFL hasn’t seen in almost 30 years.

The 2020 NFL schedule was released Thursday night and it has the Jets and Dolphins playing in consecutive games in Week 10 and Week 12. The Dolphins will host the first game, while the Jets will host the second game. Both teams are on a bye in Week 11.

It will be the first time since 1991 that two teams play each other in consecutive games. The Chargers and Seahawks were the last to do it.

Surely Adam Gase will love to see his former team in consecutive games. Miami got the best of him and the Jets in their first matchup last season before the Jets squeaked out a victory at home in the second matchup.

Miami has dominated New York over the last four seasons. The Dolphins are 6-2 over the Jets in that span. So the consecutive games will give the Jets a chance to get some quick revenge on the Dolphins for the damage they’ve done recently.

The 4 easiest games on the Jets’ 2020 schedule

The Jets have the second-hardest strength of schedule in 2020, but will still run into easier games against the Dolphins, Raiders and Browns

The Jets’ schedule isn’t easy by any stretch of the imagination. In fact, New York owns the second-hardest strength of schedule in the NFL, right behind the Patriots.

On top of their six division games, the Jets will see the AFC and NFC West, as well as playing two potential playoff teams in the Colts and Browns. After stumbling to a 7-9 finish last season, it’s a possibility that the Jets could be a better team in 2020 and still finish with a worse record due to their schedule.

Any slate that involves playing Patrick Mahomes and the defending Super Bowl champions, the Kansas City Chiefs, on their home turf is a tough one. With that said, the Jets’ schedule tends to ease up before its second and final primetime matchup of the season. Unfortunately, that also includes a two-week road trip to play both the Seahawks and Rams on their home turfs — the Jets’ only back-to-back road games in 2020.

Instead of focusing on the difficult, though, let’s take a look at the four easiest games on the Jets’ 2020 schedule.

The 4 toughest games on the Jets’ 2020 schedule

Here are the four toughest games on the Jets’ 2020 schedule.

After facing a rather easy schedule in 2019 ut only going 7-9, the New York Jets will have a brutal slate in 2020.

The Jets’ strength of schedule sits at .533, which is the second-toughest in the league behind the Patriots (.537). The Dolphins have the third toughest strength of schedule at .529. Those numbers are based on each team’s 2020 opponents’ win-loss record from 2019.

Obviously, the Jets will play the Bills, Dolphins and Patriots on the road and at home. The other road opponents include the Colts, Rams, Seahawks, Chargers and Chiefs. The home opponents are the Raiders, Browns, Cardinals, 49ers and Broncos.

With that being said, let’s take a look at the Jets’ four toughest opponents on a schedule that includes very few easy games.

Result of Jets’ Week 14 showdown with Dolphins will impact 2020 schedule

The Jets and Dolphins game has 2020 schedule implications that could determine which AFC North and AFC South opponents either team plays.

To the naked eye, the Jets’ Week 14 matchup against the Dolphins is a divisional battle between two below-average teams.

However, the Jets and Dolphins have much more on the line than Adam Gase seeking revenge in his second game against his former team.

It’s not as eye-opening as playoff positioning, but the two teams’ schedules could be finalized after Sunday’s game. As far as the 2020 schedule is concerned, 14 of 16 opponents are set. The other two will be determined over the next four weeks as Miami and New York battle for the AFC East cellar.

As it stands before Sunday’s game, the Dolphins hold a one-game lead over the Jets for the last place in the division. The Dolphins are 3-9, while the Jets are 4-8. If the Jets win on Sunday, they’ll have two more wins than Miami, which should seal a less than coveted third-place finish in the division. If the Dolphins win and improve to 2-0 against the Jets on the season, they’ll hold the head-to-head tiebreaker and have an extra edge for third place.

The difference between third and fourth place could be playing two completely different opponents. In 2020, the Jets and Dolphins will host the same-place finisher in the AFC North. That could mean the difference between playing the Browns and Bengals. Granted, the Jets lost to both teams in 2019, but there’s a contrast between playing a team with playoff aspirations and an organization going through a complete rebuild.

The AFC East will also travel to the same-place finisher from the AFC South. The Jaguars, who the Jets also lost to this season are the current leaders in the basement of that division. As far as third place is concerned, it’ll be a battle until the last week between the Titans and Colts, who are one-game apart in the standings.

Sure, the Jets would like to not go 0-2 against a team that began the season actively trying to lose games. If the wheels did indeed fall off in Cincinnati, losing may not be such a bad thing for New York as it looks ahead to 2020.
