  The Jets turn it over on downs, and this one’s all but over.

  The Jets cashed in on the fumble with a field goal and have the ball back trailing, 34-20 after forcing a Browns 3-and-out. 7:13 remaining in regulation.

  Jets trying to stay in this. Quincy Williams forced a Pierre Strong fumble, and New York recovered. Officials blew the play dead early, or it might have been an even bigger play for the Jets.

  The third quarter ends with (believe it or not) no scoring. Cleveland remains ahead 34-17.

  One quarter away from the playoffs.

  In case you were wondering, Joe Flacco needs 72 yards to pass Johnny Manziel for 31st on the Browns’ all-time passing list.

  Look, at some point “We lost Aaron Rodgers, what could we have done?” doesn’t excuse all of this. Jets sure they want everyone back for 2024? Like sure sure?

  Jets settle for a field goal, and it’s BLOCKED! Browns maintain a 34-17 lead.

  The Jets have the ball the start the 2nd half and they’ve quickly moved the ball inside the Browns 10.

  Will the scorefest continue?

  The Jets get a field goal as time expires in the first half. That ends a wacky first two quarters of this one!

  The pregame over/under was 34.5 … the over hit.

  Browns WR Elijah Moore is headed to the locker room with an injury.

  Another Browns TD! Flacco scrambles and finds Jerome Ford for a 50-yard catch-and-run tuddy!

  He broke a bunch of tackles on the way.

  #Browns WR Elijah Moore back on his feet as players from both teams surround the former #Jets receiver. Good to see him up after that scary fall.

  Another angle of the pick-six:

  Not so fast! Flacco just threw a pick-six on a bizarre play where Jermaine Johnson tipped it at the line of scrimmage and ran in back.
