  • Based on preseason odds, the New York Jets are -145 to make the postseason in 2024-25.
  • New York hasnโ€™t reached the postseason since the 2010 NFL season.
  • I predict a healthy Aaron Rodgers will lead the Jets back to the postseason.

Based on NFL odds and Jets playoff odds, the New York Jets are predicted to make the postseason this year.ย 

The Jets, who lost Aaron Rodgers four plays into the 2023 season, are -145 to make the playoffs. That price implies a probability of 59.2%.ย 

Conversely, the Jets are +120 to miss the 2024-25 postseason, an implied probability of 45.5%.

Prediction: Will the New York Jets Make the Playoffs?ย 

I predict the New York Jets will make the postseason this year and end their playoff drought.ย 

The Jets play the fourth-easiest schedule based on opponent win totals and return Aaron Rodgers from a season-ending injury in 2023.ย 

New York is third in defensive EPA per play since the 2022 season, yet they rank 32nd in offensive EPA per play over that span.ย 

With Rodgers, new receiver Mike Williams and a revamped offensive line, New Yorkโ€™s offense should improve enough to snag them a postseason spot.ย

When Was the Last Time the New York Jets Won the Super Bowl?ย 

The Jets won Super Bowl III back in 1969. Since that win, the Jets have neither won a Super Bowl nor appeared in the NFL championship game.ย 

This season, the Jets count themselves among the favorites in the Super Bowl Odds.ย
