26. New York Jets

Last week: 26th

For the first two quarters, the Jets looked like they might make it a game with the Kansas City Chiefs.

Then the 3rd and 4th quarters happened. 

The Jets were like a living embodiment of the meme where the guy is caught checking out the girl who just walked past him, while his girlfriend is looking at him with disgust. You all know the classic meme.

The disgusted girlfriend was the actual game the Jets were playing against Kansas City, and the girl walking by was the way Drew Mestemaker and CJ Carr played over the weekend of college football action.

Okay, maybe that was terrible. But the point is, the Jets have one eye fixed on the future, and justifiably so. This draft class is looking better and better at the quarterback position each week, and the Jets are currently slated for two picks in the top 6 overall (3 1st-rounders in total).  

25. Washington Commanders

Last week: 24th

Once again, the Washington Commanders took an NFC West team down to the wire. They simply didn’t have enough in the 2nd half. 

They didn’t have any answers for Myles Garrett, let’s be real. 

Jayden Daniels took four sacks against the Rams, and was hit a total of six times. This season is quickly getting away from the Commanders, and once again, injuries are a big reason why. At this point, at least Daniels is still out there.

This Commanders team had no running game to speak of, they couldn’t convert on 3rd downs, and it just generally feels like Dan Quinn has lost his touch.

Once again, situational football is the most difficult thing for this team to get a grip on. The Commanders had a clear shot for a Hail Mary at the end of the game, but decided to throw a 5-yard pass to Chig Okonkwo instead.
