No Playoffs? New York Jets Over/Under Win Total For 2020 Shows Rebuild Is Still In Process

Jets won't be significantly improved in 2020 according to oddsmaker

It could be a step backwards for the New York Jets in 2020, at least according to one oddsmakers who thinks it will be another season until the team has a winning record. 

Optimism for the Jets soared in the second half of what would be a 7-9 season. After a rough start to the year where seemingly everything went wrong, the Jets went 6-2 in the second half of the schedule. It was significant momentum for the Jets, especially after a fan-movement rallied to demand the firing of head coach Adam Gase. 

But, the outlook for the Jets isn’t necessarily reflected in the team taking a step forward next year. According to BetOnline, the Jets record will be status quo at best in 2020. 

This, of course, is before the Jets even enter free agency or the NFL Draft.
