Should Josh Allen, Mitchell Trubisky and anyone else who throws a pass for the Bills on Sunday avoid being the first to have a pass picked off, the Jets will make some history, <\/p>\n<p>Their 16 straight games without an interception have already set a record for the longest streak without one in a single season or over multiple seasons. As Adam Schefter of ESPN noted on Sunday, failing to pick off a pass against the Bills will make the Jets <a class=\"Link\" href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/AdamSchefter\/status\/2007802692647964857\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">the first team to go<\/a> an entire season without an interception since they became a statistic in 1933. <\/p>\n<p>Even if the Jets avoid that ignominious achievement, they\u2019ll need two interceptions to avoid a new low for a single season. The 2018 49ers finished that season with two interceptions. <\/p>\n<p>Wherever they wind up, the lack of interceptions is just one example of of what\u2019s gone wrong for the Jets this season and it is just one reminder of how much work they have in front of them this offseason. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"After the Patriots humiliated the Jets in Week 17, it was noted that opposing quarterbacks have put together&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":387734,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[63],"tags":[349,99],"class_list":{"0":"post-387733","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-nfl","8":"tag-nfl","9":"tag-sports"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/387733","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=387733"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/387733\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/387734"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=387733"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=387733"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=387733"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
