Jets could start totally unraveling after awful Bills loss: Troy Aikman

Firing the coach didn’t galvanize the Jets to a win Monday night against the Bills.And Troy Aikman believes things may only get uglier for the reeling Jets.“I could see this totally unraveling, maybe that won’t happen, I know the players won’t agree with that,” Aikman said after the 23-20 “Monday Night Football” home loss to the Bills.“But I could see it happening because I think they put so much into this week to winning a game and getting back on track and the owner (Woody Johnson) says this is the best team’s he had in 25 years, all those things, but they didn’t get it done.
