While most petty posts in the NFL focus on the week's opponent, the New York Jets took it to another level in Week 10.
New York recorded its second consecutive victory after defeating the Cleveland Browns 27-20 at home.
The Jets' offense only gained 169 yards, but managed to pull away after a 42-yard catch and run from running back Breece Hall early in the fourth quarter. New York then forced a turnover on downs and kicked a field goal to go up 10 with 6:13 remaining in the game. The 42 net passing yards marked the Jets' fewest in a win since 1973, according to ESPN Research.
Last week, New York took down the Cincinnati Bengals for its first win of the season. The Jets followed that up with a victory over another Ohio-based team. Therefore, they decided to poke fun at the entire state in a postgame troll.

Here are the top NFL trolls from Week 10.
The Chicago Bears stormed back to defeat the New York Giants at home in a wild matchup.
Chicago faced a 20-10 deficit with 10:19 remaining in the game, but then outscored New York 14-0 the rest of the way. Bears quarterback Caleb Williams accounted for both touchdowns — first connecting with wide receiver Rome Odunze for a two-yard score, then rushing 17 yards for the other. The Giants have blown four double-digit leads this season, already their most in a season since 2015.
While posting a video of Bears safety C.J. Gardner-Johnson hyping up the win, Chicago captioned it: «Start spreading the news,» lyrics from Frank Sinatra's "(Theme From) New York, New York."
