One can be certain this is not the way the play was drawn up. The New York Jets decided to pull out all the stops since there was no reason to hide anything in the playbook on Sunday against the Miami Dolphins.

The New York Jets suited up to finish out a brutal 2024 campaign on Sunday, hosting the Miami Dolphins at MetLife Stadium in the final matchup of the year. It did not take long for things to go typically sideways, as the team banner was held upside-down during pregame festivities. This error was almost immediately matched on the field.

Rumblings emerged shortly after New York Jets owner Woody Johnson dismissed general manager Joe Douglas in November, claiming that the Jets would part ways with noteworthy veteran players such as quarterback Aaron Rodgers and wide receiver Davante Adams during the upcoming offseason as part of a franchise reset.
