The New York Jets have been eliminated from playoff contention for the 14th straight season. The Jets dropped to 3-10 following their 32-26 OT loss on the road to the Miami Dolphins.
The Jets led by eight points going into the fourth quarter but were outscored 11-3 in the final quarter to force OT. In overtime, Miami marched down the field and got a touchdown to secure the win.
Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers said he was frustrated with how the season played out, especially with the sky-high expectations that they had.
"Yeah, the expectations were high," Rodgers said, via ESPN. "We didn't reach them, not even close. Felt good three weeks into the season. Everybody felt real good.

"Since then, it's been a lot of difficult games with opportunities to win. We just didn't figure out how to win enough games. I didn't play good enough in some crunch times and we're sitting here with the record we have."
The Jets are now 0-7 in games decided by six or fewer points this season. New York hasn't made the playoffs since the 2010 season when it made it to the AFC Championship game.
