It's do-or-die time for the New York Jets. The slack that was there for the team to lose a game or two after starting the season 4-1 is gone. At 5-5, and with the schedule just getting harder down the stretch, New York is in a position where another loss may end the team's playoff hopes for a fifth consecutive season.
Only a month ago the Jets were a game out of first place, but the team now sits just one up on the Miami Dolphins for last place in the AFC East.
With Miami looking to make a run at their first playoff appearance since 2008, a victory against the Jets this Sunday would go an awful long way.
