The Jets failed to improve on their 8–8 regular season record in 2013. They were eliminated from postseason contention for the fourth consecutive season after a Week 12 loss to the Buffalo Bills. As a result, head coach Rex Ryan, along with most of his staff, and general manager John Idzik, Jr. were fired after the season. Ryan compiled a 46–50 record in six seasons as head coach, and would later go on to become head coach of the rival Bills. This was the first season since 2005 that the team finished last in the division. 3 Transactions Coaching and personnel changes Linebackers coach Brian VanGorder was hired as Notre Dame's defensive coordinator.Brian VanGorder Named Notre Dame Defensive coordinator http://www.und.com/sports/m-footbl/spec-rel/011314aab.html January 13, 2014 Notre Dame Fighting Irish Athletics https://web.archive.org/web/20140118114156/http://www.und.com/sports/m-footbl/spec-rel/011314aab.html January 18, 2014 January 19, 2014 live Defensive quality control coach Bobby April III was promoted to replace VanGorder.Rex Ryan's '14 Coaching Staff Almost Set http://www.newyorkjets.com/news/article-randylangeblogfb/Rex-Ryan%E2%80%99s-%E2%80%9914-Coaching-Staff-Almost-Set/8db4f0ee-91b0-43f4-8a6f-dde261d74888 Lange, Randy January 18, 2014 New York Jets https://web.archive.org/web/20140121033405/http://www.newyorkjets.com/news/article-randylangeblogfb/Rex-Ryan%E2%80%99s-%E2%80%9914-Coaching-Staff-Almost-Set/8db4f0ee-91b0-43f4-8a6f-dde261d74888 January 21, 2014 January 19, 2014 dead mdy-all Special teams coach Ben Kotwica was hired by the Washington Redskins for the same position.Ben Kotwica Brought In For Special Teams http://www.redskins.com/news-and-events/article-1/Ben-Kotwica-Brought-In-For-Special-Teams/307f42fa-6d39-41ad-823d-0db238bf2d4c Tinsman, Brian January 15, 2014 Washington Redskins https://web.archive.org/web/20140119033720/http://www.redskins.com/news-and-events/article-1/Ben-Kotwica-Brought-In-For-Special-Teams/307f42fa-6d39-41ad-823d-0db238bf2d4c January 19, 2014 January 20, 2014 dead mdy-all He was replaced by former LSU special teams coach Thomas McGaughey.Thomas McGaughey Named Jets ST coordinator http://www.newyorkjets.com/news/article-randylangeblogfb/Thomas-McGaughey-Named-Jets-ST-Coordinator/2e1dc3a7-208c-490d-94c8-20fd0051e12c Lange, Randy February 5, 2014 New York Jets https://web.archive.org/web/20140209054449/http://www.newyorkjets.com/news/article-randylangeblogfb/Thomas-McGaughey-Named-Jets-ST-Coordinator/2e1dc3a7-208c-490d-94c8-20fd0051e12c February 9, 2014 February 5, 2014 dead mdy-all The Jets promoted Tony Sparano Jr. to offensive assistant and hired former player Eric Smith as a seasonal intern.Tony Sparano Jr. Promoted, Eric Smith Joins Staff http://www.newyorkjets.com/news/article-5/Tony-Sparano-Jr-Promoted-Eric-Smith-Joins-Staff/8eb591e2-79f9-40cb-8f0b-e6bc39777d19 Frankel, Charlie February 10, 2014 New York Jets https://web.archive.org/web/20140221193703/http://www.newyorkjets.com/news/article-5/Tony-Sparano-Jr-Promoted-Eric-Smith-Joins-Staff/8eb591e2-79f9-40cb-8f0b-e6bc39777d19 February 21, 2014 February 11, 2014 dead The Jets hired Aaron McLaurin as an assistant strength and conditioning coach and Kavan Latham as a strength and conditioning intern.Aaron McLaurin, Kavan Latham Join Jets Strength Staff http://www.newyorkjets.com/news/article-randylangeblogfb/Aaron-McLaurin-Kavan-Latham-Join-Jets-Strength-Staff/8984f77b-ebaa-4910-9560-609ca2794761 Lange, Randy February 24, 2014 New York Jets https://web.archive.org/web/20140306031843/http://www.newyorkjets.com/news/article-randylangeblogfb/Aaron-McLaurin-Kavan-Latham-Join-Jets-Strength-Staff/8984f77b-ebaa-4910-9560-609ca2794761 March 6, 2014 March 8, 2014 dead mdy-all Arrivals The Jets signed Colin Anderson, T.

However, the Jets quickly rebounded with a 5-yard shovel TD pass from Smith to Chris Johnson to take the lead 10–7 going into halftime. The Jets would never trail the rest of the game, although Carr threw a late TD pass to Raiders WR James Jones in garbage time, and attempted a failed onside kick. Chris Ivory had a solid day, rushing for 102 yards and a TD. The score came when Ivory ran 71 yards for a TD during the 4th quarter; it was the Jets' longest TD run since Thomas Jones 71-yard TD run back on October 19, 2009. Geno Smith completed a career-best 82.1% completion percentage (23/28 for 221 yards, 1 TD, 1 INT); it was the best performance delivered by a Jet quarterback since Chad Pennington completed 82.1% of his passes in a loss to the Buffalo Bills way back in 2007.

A game-tying 37-yard touchdown throw by Geno Smith to Jeremy Kerley with five minutes to go in the fourth quarter was wiped out when assistant coach Marty Mornhinweg called the Jets' final timeout just as the ball was snapped; even more egregiously Mornhinweg was not authorized to call timeouts, the responsibility of head coach Rex Ryan. The Jets failed to convert after this and fell 31–24; it marked only the second time for Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers that he won a game despite a deficit exceeding eight points.

The Jets' offense drove to the Patriots' red zone on all four of their first-half drives. However, they were held to four field goals while the Patriots scored two touchdowns and a field goal, building a 17–12 halftime lead. On their first drive in the second half, the Jets reached the end zone and took a 19–17 lead. The Patriots then scored ten unanswered points to go up 27–19. The Jets had a chance to tie the game with a touchdown and a two-point conversion. However, Jets QB Geno Smith's game-tying pass was overthrown, and the Patriots led 27–25. After a failed onside kick recovery, the Jets forced a three and out and got the ball back with just over one minute remaining. The Jets drove from their 12-yard line to the Patriots' 40-yard line. With 5 seconds remaining, Jets kicker Nick Folk was sent out to kick a game-winning 58-yard field goal. The kick was blocked, and the Patriots held on for a 27–25 victory. With the loss, the Jets fell to 1–6 as they lost their sixth consecutive game and remained in 4th place in the AFC East. The Jets' six-game losing streak is the longest losing streak under head coach Rex Ryan. The loss represented the first time that the Jets had lost six consecutive games since they dropped six in a row from Weeks 4–9 during the 2007 season. The loss also led to a trade the next day with the Seahawks for receiver Percy Harvin.
