FLORHAM PARK, N.J. (AP) — The vibe is different around the New York Jets. Even with only four wins.
Yes, the franchise just completed another season without a postseason appearance, an NFL-worst drought of 11 straight years.
NEW YORK (AP) — The most important number among all of Zach Wilson's recent statistics is zero.
That's how many interceptions the New York Jets rookie quarterback has thrown in his last four games.
Mac Jones and the New England Patriots played a style of game more reminiscent of a triple-option service academy than the modern NFL.
Jones threw just three passes on a windy Monday night in Buffalo for the fewest pass attempts in an NFL game in nearly a half-century as the Patriots beat the Bills 14-10.
Tom Matte, who spent his entire 12-year NFL career as a gritty running back for the Baltimore Colts — except for a star turn for three games in 1965 as their quarterback — has died. He was 82.
The Baltimore Ravens confirmed Matte's death during coach John Harbaugh's news conference Wednesday.
Joe Walton, the former New York Jets coach who built Robert Morris University's football program from the ground up, has died. He was 85.
Robert Morris announced in an obituary posted on its website that Walton died Sunday.

NEW YORK (AP) — Joe Namath has heard the question for years. Decades, really.
Can the Jets' quarterback — whoever that happens to be — become the next Broadway Joe?
The franchise has been on a mostly fruitless search since Namath last played for the Jets in 1976, a span during which 34 players have started at quarterback for New York.
White shoes. Fur coat. Pantyhose. Fu Manchu mustache.
And an arm that would make Superman proud.
Yep, Joe Namath is the NFL's greatest character. Guaranteed.
