The Jets are now responsible for three of the eight worst performances by a team's skill-position players over the past 10 seasons:

18.3 PPR FPTS (5th-worst), Week 14 of 2017, 23-0 loss to Broncos
19.1 PPR FPTS (6th-worst), Week 7 of 2019, 33-0 loss to Patriots
24.5 PPR FPTS (8th-worst), today

The Jets' 24.5 combined PPR fantasy points from their skill-position players (QB, RB, WR and TE) in London today were the fewest by any team since the Cardinals totaled 17.22 in a 27-0 loss to the Browns in Week 9 of 2023, in Clayton Tune's only NFL start.

It can't get much worse, but that was certainly a huge setback of a start for him after what had been an encouraging beginning to his year. League context comes into play here, but with the Astros not lighting up the scoreboard, I'd give him one more shot.

We'll see whether Jayden Daniels plays fully or at all in Week 18, but if he does, he needs 18.75 fantasy points in order to break Cam Newton's single-season record for a rookie quarterback (370.34, 2011).

In leagues that don't award points per reception, Lamar Jackson's 430.38 fantasy points scored are the most by any player in any single year in history. Yes, he exceeded LaDainian Tomlinson's 425.10 of 2006 (albeit thanks to one additional game on his schedule).
