The Jets are doing well.
That isn't a mistake. No one expected that to happen a month ago. The Jets beat the Packers 27-10). They defeated the Packers at Lambeau Field. It is odd to be talking about the Jets without a joke or meme.
The Jets have allowed less than 20 points in three of their last four games. The way they are doing it is by running the ball and allowing their defense to lead. The rookies ran for a career-high 116 yards against the Packers.
The second-year quarterback is becoming one of the better game managers in the league, as he was 10-of-18 for 112 yards passing. The Jets are putting Wilson in positions to succeed and not allowing him to throw games away. The Jets are riding a three-game winning streak since Wilson came back from injury. Fans don't care if the quarterback throws for 300 yards or 100 when you're winning. Since 2015, the Jets have not had a 4-2 start. The Jets have had only one winning season in the last five years.
There could be a change in the way things are done under the leadership of Saleh. The Jets have not been good for most people. Aside from a couple of winning years here and there and back-to-back AFC championship games appearances under Rex Ryan, this has been a poor organization for a long time.
The team is backing up their coach's claims that he was tracking receipts for those who mocked the Jets. It was justified for anyone who didn't believe in the J-E-T-S Jets to not believe in the team.
The Jets do well when it comes to travelling during the playoffs. They run the ball well. Wilson isn't winning games, but he isn't losing them, which is crucial for a young team like the Jets Two rookies on the team, Hall and Sauce Gardner, are already making a difference.
People didn't pick the Jets over the Packers. They took the cheeseheads to Green Bay. Over the next few weeks, we will see how good these Jets can be as they face some of the best teams in the country. Buffalo will be a big test for the New York team and a good indicator of how far they can go.
The Jets are playing well for the first time in a while. I wouldn't pick them to do anything crazy like win the Super Bowl, but winning nine or 10 games would be a good start for him.
