Should I chance it? Cancel it? Book a later flight on JetBlue for $185 as insurance -- which I consider better than going to some awful JFK motel? Something else?

Domestic-Int'l is 1h15m
Int'l-Domestic is 1h45m (DL to DL)
It may depend on if your 1h25m connection is on the oubound or return flight. If on the return, you could make it, you're just not protected if you miss the connection. Also, I am pretty certain AF uses T1 at JFK so you'd have to make a landside transfer, which could be a real challenge if you have checked baggage.
I would call DL and at least link the PNRs. If you have Medallion status, they may be more likely to accomodate you if you miss the flight.
Have you tried calling DL to see if they can change your BOS-JFK-BOS flight?
