The New York Jets find themselves in a dire situation as playoff hopes fade following a 28-27 loss to the Indianapolis Colts, leaving them at 3-8. Interim coach Jeff Ulbrich emphasizes the need for self-assessment and improvement during the bye week.

Despite some bright spots, such as kicker Anders Carlson, the team's overall performance has been disappointing, particularly in slow starts and defensive struggles. The Jets aim to regroup before their next game against the Seattle Seahawks.
