Jets suffer humiliating loss to Raiders and things are about to get worse

There’s no other way to put it: The Jets are in a sad state of affairs.After their latest humiliation — a 38-33 loss to the Raiders on Sunday at MetLife Stadium — we’ve reached a point in the Jets season where it’s fair to wonder where their next win will come from.Or whether they’ll win another game this season at all.Text with Brian Costello all season as he brings Sports+ subscribers the latest Jets intel from on the field and off.
