The New York Jets missing the playoffs is a tradition unlike any other. It has been 15 years since we last saw Gang Green in the playoffs, when they fell to Pittsburgh in the 2011 AFC Championship game. Since that point, the Jets' seasons have all ended prior to January.

And, for better or worse, the remaining playoff finalists are painted with ghosts of Jets past.
