The New York Jets are officially out of postseason contention.

It almost took a miracle to somehow get back into the playoffs, but all hopes were dashed Sunday when the Jets blew a late lead and lost 32-26 to the Miami Dolphins in overtime

The Dolphins had a 15-13 halftime lead, but New York quickly gained momentum and secured a 23-15 lead. Miami would tie it and the team then exchanged field goals to force overtime.

Miami would win the throw and march down the field, with quarterback Tua Tagovailoa finding tight end Jonnu Smith in the end zone for the game-winning score.

Tagovailoa completed 31 of 45 yards and a touchdown. Running back De’von Achane had 13 carries for 21 yards and a touchdown, while he also contributed six catches for 45 yards in the passing game. Tyreek Hill had 10 catches for 115 yards and a touchdown, while Jaylen Waddle had nine catches for 99 yards.

Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers completed 27 of 39 yards for 339 yards with one touchdown. Garrett Wilson had seven carries for 114 yards, while Davante Adams had nine catches for 109 yards and a touchdown.

Fans took to social media to condemn the Jets for blowing the game and extending their postseason drought to 14 seasons.
