The 2015 New York Jets season was the franchise's 46th season in the National Football league and the 56th overall. The team improved on their 4–12 record in 2014 under former head Coach Rex Ryan. Under new head coach Todd Bowles, they succeeded in matching their record in just five games, starting 4–1. Prior to the season, the Jets made a number of moves, including, re-acquiring Darrelle Revis and Antonio Cromartie, two cornerbacks who were instrumental in the Jets previous defensive success, and obtaining Ryan Fitzpatrick and Brandon Marshall in trades. The team retrogressed to 5–5, before going on a five-game winning streak, clinching their first winning season since 2010. However, it wasn't enough to make the playoffs, as they lost to the Buffalo Bills in Week 17 and the Pittsburgh Steelers defeated the Cleveland Browns. The Steelers and Jets both finished 10–6, but the Steelers clinched the final AFC playoff spot over the Jets based on a better record vs. common opponents. The Jets finished the season as the league's only team with a winning record to not make the playoffs.

After the Jets' upset win against the Colts on Monday night, they headed back to MetLife Stadium to face the Eagles. With 2014 rushing champ DeMarco Murray, who had rushed for 11 yards on 21 carries, injured, the Eagles rushing attack was explosive under Ryan Mathews and Darren Sproles.

New York scored 17 unanswered, however the Jets couldn't capitalize on many opportunities and Philadelphia won 24-17. The Eagles remain as the only NFL team that the Jets have never defeated in franchise history, as the Eagles improved their all-time head-to-head record against the Jets to 10–0.[80]

Highlighting the Jets' 5 game winning streak and push for the playoffs, the Jets took down the 12-2 Patriots. Ryan Fitzpatrick continued his excellent play over the last several weeks, outdueling Tom Brady and throwing no interceptions. The Jets took an early lead with a Randy Bullock field goal, although the Patriots countered with a Stephen Gostkowski field goal. The Jets then scored 14 unanswered points with 2 Fitzpatrick-Marshall touchdowns, but then New England started to come back but it wasn't enough on a controversial coin toss that led to an Eric Decker touchdown. With Pittsburgh's loss to Baltimore, The Jets were in position to secure the final wild card spot by beating their former head coach, Rex Ryan, and their division rival, the Buffalo Bills.
