MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. — Nearly 27 years ago, the Jets and Dolphins met in an AFC Championship game forever known as “The Mud Bowl.”
On Sunday, the two teams get together in what could be labeled “The Crud Bowl.”
The 1-6 Jets and 0-7 Dolphins meet in a game that is historic for how poor the two teams are. Their combined record is the NFL’s worst entering the eighth game of the season since 1969. It is the first game in NFL history in which both teams enter with a minus-100 point differential or worse and both teams are fewer than eight games into the season, according to Elias.
