The Jets remain stranded in Chicago because of the blizzard that dumped more than 2 feet of snow in some spots in New Jersey, but the team is hoping to return home on its charter flight by Monday night.
The team is scheduled to depart at 7 p.m. ET and arrive at Newark, N.J., at 9:30 ET, if the weather cooperates.
In the meantime, the playoff-bound Jets are trying to stick to their normal routine at their hotel, with team meetings and reviewing their 38-34 loss to the Bears on Sunday.
Coach Rex Ryan says it's "good news, bad news" when he looks at the game because he is impressed by what the offense has done lately, but needs to "get this defense back to what we're capable of playing."
Ryan also says he will hold off on deciding whether quarterback Mark Sanchez will play in the regular-season finale against Buffalo because "he's hot right now."
