Thursday Football takes place this week between the Jets and Jaguars, two teams hoping to help shape the AFC playoff picture.
Thursday night football wasn’t the NFL’s hottest night of the season, but with playoff races heating up, there’s no reason you can’t watch it this week.
The Jaguars and Jets faced off Thursday night with some huge postseason implications.
Jacksonville picks up wins over the Titans and Cowboys. Suddenly, they have realistic hopes for the final. A win against the Jets would keep those hopes alive for the final two weeks of the season.
The Jets will have their fans at home cheering them on, and they’ll need to be at their best to stop their latest slide. Three straight losses to the Vikings, Bills, and Lions left New York sitting at 7-7, behind the Dolphins and Patriots in the standings, and needing help making it to the postseason.

Trevor Lawrence for the Jaguars and Mike White for the Jets both have injury problems hanging over them. The former is likely to be played through by a toe problem. He would miss the latter again, giving Zach Wilson another chance to convince the Jets that he’s the starting quarterback.
Bengals fans must be huge Jaguars fans. Cincinnati would clinch the playoffs with a Jets loss to Jacksonville.
