Yes, he was dealing with a lot of personnel and culture issues, but nobody watching that team came away thinking they were particularly inspirational. He’s absolutely exceeded expectations this year, obviously, and they still have some serious liabilities to sort out moving forward, but kudos to Saleh for righting the ship to this point. He identified a path toward competence and they’re executing it. It looks so much like that 2012 Seattle team, but if they stuck with Matt Flynn instead of drafting Russell Wilson. You can see the difference in Saleh between last year and this one. He was in teaching mode almost exclusively all last season, only getting a little animated in the Tampa game and a couple other closer ones, but it was all about teachable moments for him. He was also consciously trying to tone himself down on the sidelines last season. I recall him saying that as a head coach he felt he needed to be more stoic. I’m glad that this year he’s just being himself, and the players are quite clearly responding. There’s nothing phony about him running up and down and onto the field, and you can see the players love the guy. They're doing the right thing with Zach right now. They’re trying to develop a QB. They’re taking the pressure off of him, and he’s doing what they’re asking him to do. All while winning games. I’d find it hard to complain but also understand that you don’t, lol. 5 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmy 2 Times Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 I’m giddy! That was a display of 90’s football! The Jets beat the snot out of the Packers. Hard hitting, assignment sound, physical defense. Power running game that takes the will from the opposing team! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post football guy Posted October 17, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted October 17, 2022 Never thought the defense was as bad as they played last year, but can be honest that I didn't expect them to be this good this quickly. Saleh's scheme isn't overly complex, but it requires everyone on defense to be in lockstep in order to allow the personnel to play fast and free. There was a learning curve in SF, just as there has been here, but man... this is starting to look like an elite group. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bowles Movement Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 For the first time in a long time I'm actually looking forward to football on Sundays. I was fishing in Mexico yesterday and following the game with play by play texts from a buddy. And for the first time in a long time I can say Im a Jets fan without wincing or following that up with a “ I know, they re brutal.” Its a great feeling. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was his vision—to create a Seahawks/Niners East and it’s starting to look very much like those teams. I think he’s still pretty far away from being a contender, but even a miserable **** like me has to acknowledge the Jets are playing tough, physical, old-school football. Good on him. I thought he was a poof and his team would be a poof, but I was dead wrong. So far. To this point. Several disclaimers* *Parity, weird year in the league, scoring is down, Becton sucks, Zach sucks, Ayahuasca poisoning, Daboll for COTY I will give you credit for admitting that your estimation of Saleh was wrong. A lot of guys were calling for his head and Ive seen few mea culpas. So you got that going for ya. Which is nice! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bostonmajet Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 It's funny - two weeks ago many were asking for Saleh's head. Culture is BS. Receipts was stupid. He was too stoic and then he was a buffoon getting pumped up on the sidelines. Ulbrich was the worst DC ever. Many were ready to get rid of JD just so we could go all in on Sean Payton. Let's reboot 3 games into Saleh's second season. We were going with a coach that was burnt out and needed time off. We went that way with Parcell's and after a few years he got tired. I am afraid when we loose some games, we are going to be back into this nonsense all over again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bottom two stats (pressure pct and takeaways) are his priority. He cares less how many yards are given up which is not to say he doesn’t care about it, just secondary.

JohnnyLV Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 Couple things. The Jets played man with Reed and Sauce most of the game. That us a huge philosophical change. Also, Sauce is now in charge of calls in the secondary another huge change. Also let's not read too much into thus game. Both defenses had a huge advantage because they were facing the same offense they run and run by brothers no less for even more insight.

sciond Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 I have to give credit to JD here. He picked Saleh and never met him before the interviews. He maintained a belief in him. I have to admit he saw something I did not see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which was the case in most of our games last year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
