The New York Jets suffered an embarrassing 28-25 home defeat to the previously winless Miami Dolphins at MetLife Stadium on Sunday. Writer Mark Cannizzaro argues the loss effectively ends any promise or playoff aspirations for New York's season. The defeat dropped the Jets to a 2-5 record overall and extended head coach Aaron Glenn's record against AFC East opponents to 0-8.

Miami quarterback Malik Willis led the Dolphins with two touchdown passes to Caleb Douglas and a rushing score, while Ollie Gordon II rushed for 103 yards. For the Jets, quarterback Geno Smith threw three touchdown passes, including two to Mason Taylor and one to Omar Cooper Jr., but the team could not overcome defensive lapses and offensive missteps.
