This year hasn't been particularly kind to sports franchises in the Tri-State area. Every team has something (in certain cases, multiple things) they'd like from Santa.
One more week. One final game. That's all that might be left in Rex Ryan's tenure as coach of the Jets, with his future uncertain beyond Sunday's season finale.
The Miami Dolphins are flying high following a remarkable come from behind victory over the Minnesota Vikings.
Is total regime change on the horizon? It's starting to look like it.
This isn't just about Fan Guy or the Jets' current plunge down the rungs of relevance. This isn't even about the gritty game they played Sunday. It's about the zero sum reality of pro football and the Jets' unwillingness to abide by it.
"You can cut it and slice it how you want to. I think we're — what are we, 3-12? — I think we're the best 3-12 team in the history of football. No doubt about it."

"You name it, I'll put myself up there. I'm not scared to say it. You don't get to this point not being confident. If somebody calls me cocky, oh well, they'll get over it."
Inspired by what very well could be the last time Rex Ryan coaches against the Patriots, Al Dukes donned his Santa hat and entered the Allstate Studio with a pep in his step (but carrying a heavy heart).
The scoreboard Sunday may say that it is time, finally, for the Jets coach to admit his arch-rival truly got the better of him. If he didn't kiss anything before, he might as well now. And we're not talking about rings.
If the Jets want Jim Harbaugh they better say some prayers for the next 10 or so days and then get cracking.
