The biggest mistake the Jets made in 2017

Towards the end of the 2017 regular season, the New York Jets were out of playoff contention with a few weeks left to go and decided to stick with quarterback Bryce Petty once Josh McCown was out for the year due to a broken hand injury.

In case you missed it, Petty played some of the worst football you can imagine from under center. In the four games Petty played in (three starts, one game in which he relieved McCown after he was injured), he totaled 55 completions out of112 attempts, 544 passing yards, one touchdown, and three interceptions.
