It’s panic mode in Jets land — and fans are done sugarcoating it. After a horrendous 31-6 beatdown by the Cardinals, that glimmer of playoff hope? Gone. New York dropped to 3-7, squashing any lingering optimism sparked by last week’s win over the Texans.
Fans are taking to social media, practically begging owner Woody Johnson to sell the team, with literal cries of “Enough is enough!” It’s not even December, but for the Jets faithful, it’s already mock draft season.
Jets Fans Beg for New Ownership After Crushing Loss to Cardinals
New York’s performance against Arizona was disastrous. The team’s offense looked lost, unable to even sniff the end zone. While the defense, once hyped as a sturdy backbone, crumbled like sand in the Arizona heat.
Four touchdown drives of 70+ yards had fans wondering if they were watching a Cardinals team from the future or the Jets’ defense on another planet. For the Cardinals, now at 6-4 and riding a four-game win streak, it was just another win. But for New York? This one felt like rock bottom.
Fans have reached their boiling point, pleading for Johnson to sell the team, with social media flooded by desperate cries for a new era. One fan on X summed up the frustration: “Please sell the team Woody Johnson.”
Please sell the team @woodyjohnson4

The agony has turned to anger, with some fans calling for New York Mets owner Steve Cohen to take the reins, hoping his leadership could bring change to a franchise that hasn’t made the playoffs in 13 seasons.
“It’s sell the team chants. Woody Johnson is turning this franchise into the Cleveland Browns. Please Steve Cohen buy this team it’s the only hope,” quipped one fan.

Jets faithful are watching what feels like the same tragic play year after year, and patience has officially run dry. Others echoed the same sentiment, commenting:
“Please someone who is close enough to the situation to ask Woody Johnson to sell the team to an owner that is smart enough to trust the football guys to run the team. It the pits of hell watching this team every year be the ass of the league. Hard to watch!!!” wrote one user.
“Woody Johnson please sell the team. U are killing this franchise,” alluded another.
“Can Woody Johnson please sell the team or relocate to somewhere very very far away. Iceland? Alaska? Hawaii? Take this team and fire it into the sun #Jets,” commented one fan.
With each devastating loss, the cries for new ownership grow louder. The playoff dreams are all but dead, and as Gang Green turns its gaze toward mock draft season, one thing is clear: Jets fans want a new chapter.
