The Las Vegas Raiders had more positives than negatives in their bounce-back win against the New York Jets in Week 8 of the 2026 NFL season.
The New York Jets may need to look to one of these five teams if they want to part ways with running back Breece Hall following the emergence of Braelon Allen.
The New York Jets, mired in a losing 2026 season, could make NFL Draft history by entering the 2027 draft with three top‑10 picks—a feat never achieved in the common‑draft era. NFL insider Adam Schefter projects the Jets at 5th, 6th and 10th overall if the order were set today, and upcoming games could push those slots even higher. A 38‑33 loss to the Las Vegas Raiders deepens their playoff woes but bolsters their draft leverage, giving General Manager Darren Mougey the chance to rebuild with elite talent at quarterback, offensive line or defense, or to trade for additional assets.
Fantasy owners looking to stream defenses for Week 9 get five under‑used options. The Chiefs (15th, 5.4 pts/game) face a low‑scoring Jets unit; the 49ers (10th, 7.0 pts) host a high‑powered Raiders offense; the Giants (20th, 5.1 pts) return from a bye against struggling Eagles; the Lions (25th, 4.0 pts) meet a 31st‑ranked Dolphins attack; and the Saints (23rd, 4.1 pts) tackle a 29th‑ranked Browns. All are owned in less than 55% of ESPN leagues, making them potential waiver‑wire steals.
It used to be easy; with 16 games on the NFL schedule, fans and analysts could engage in halfway-point reflection after eight games. Now, we have to decide between doing it after eight games or nine games. It’s an unfathomably difficult dilemma to navigate, and I’m not sure whether I will prevail. Jokes aside, the ...

The New York Jets fall to 2-6 after a 38-33 loss to the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 8, with their defense taking most of the blame. Despite a solid offensive showing—Braelon Allen’s 147 rushing yards and Adonai Mitchell’s 142 receiving yards—Aaron Glenn’s unit allowed 33 points, yielding only one sack and struggling to contain Kirk Cousins (141.0 passer rating) and tight end Brock Bowers. A 95-yard kickoff return TD by Dylan Laube further swung momentum. The article criticizes Glenn’s play‑calling, the front seven’s lack of pressure, and special‑teams lapses, urging immediate adjustments to salvage the season.
The Baltimore Ravens are reportedly eyeing Bears backup quarterback Tyson Bagent as they grapple with a quarterback crisis after injuries to Lamar Jackson and Tyler Huntley in a 36-10 loss to Buffalo. Bagent, praised by Ravens offensive coordinator Declan Doyle—who coached him in Chicago—offers familiarity with the offense and strong study habits. Chicago coach Matt Nagy and OC Bill Taylor also commend his preparation and quick grasp of systems, citing solid performances like 268 yards against the Jets. While the Ravens have shown interest, no offer exists yet, and the Bears must weigh Bagent’s depth value against potential draft compensation.

Glenn says Hall is close to returning and the duo could form a strong backfield once he’s healthy. New York sits 2‑6 and prepares for a matchup with the Chiefs.
