It's almost certain that the Jets might not make the NFL playoffs this season. And one of the main reasons for that is their starting quarterback, Ryan Fitzpatrick, is having a disappointing season.
That's why the Jets might be a good fit for Romo as the Jets is really looking for a high quality quarterback. And Romo is a proven quarterback that can keep playoff possibilities alive.
