Honest Review 2.12: Building Culture

This is a step in the right direction. What a way to stick in the game and pull out a hard-earned victory. The Jets FINALLY finished a game grinding out the most impressive win of the season.

There is a culture building here and this is a great win for the direction this football team is going. The offense did whatever they felt like doing because Josh McCown and the Jets offense dictated the pace of the game against the Chiefs defense. The way the team battled back into the game and didn’t quit after a slow start out the gate. Controlling the clock for 42 minutes compared to the 17 minutes that Kansas City had and going 13/20 on 3rd down is the reason why the Jets won this ball game. The big play offense of the Chiefs didn’t rattle the veteran McCown as he charged on with long drives that ate up big chunks of the clock. This is a formula that the Jets could lean on moving forward.

Everyone on the field is looking like they are growing and there is a clear culture building in the locker room thanks to Todd Bowles. The defense even with giving up chunk plays sacked twice and pressured Alex Smith a ton. There were a bunch of big plays from Marcus Maye and Jamal Adams late in the game.

There was no weakness on the field for gang green today—every aspect of the game the Jets won today and it was a real impressive win. To stick with two potential playoff teams in back to back weeks shows to the character of this young Jets defense. The future is looking bright for this group of guys and this win is a key building block of success for gang green.


The playoffs might be a stretch, the Jets will have to have a lot of help throughout the league, BUT if the Jets win out they have a chance. They will have to win out and that will be tough and isn’t necessarily the worst thing in the world. Jets fans please remember this win because this is the start of something I truly believe that. It’s on to Denver and the message is always the same LET’S GO J-E-T-S JETS JETS JETS!

2024 MLB Preview

  Opening Day is about 24 hours away and the Shohei Ohtani gambling story has stole all the headlines and fleeting moments of baseball conversation over the past few days, many have now forgotten about the exciting marathon ahead of us! Even with the ever-evolving Ohtani story clouding the beginning of the Los Angeles Dodgers season, that doesn’t change the fact that L.A. is still the team to beat in baseball. The Dodgers have put their chips at the center of the table, no pun intended, for 2024 to show they can raise another World Series trophy after sending upwards of a billion dollars in free agency. In division however, the surprise Arizona Diamondbacks are capitalizing on their newfound championship window with a fantastic offseason that will have them in the mix to get back to a second straight fall classic. The San Diego Padres are done shopping for superstars, sort of, following a massively disappointing season that saw them move on from one of the games generational talent...

Dan Hurley Saved College Basketball

When you think of Men’s College Basketball, the names of Wooden, Dean, Krzyzewski, Williams, Thompson, and Calipari shoot to mind right away. All the memories of the great teams from UCLA, Duke, North Carolina, Kentucky, the Big East, UNLV, and even the Fab Five start to rush back. Nostalgia of a time when the sport meant something different. For all those longing for the days when great teams didn’t dissipate into the transfer portal after one disappointing year—Dan Hurley and the Connecticut Huskies are here to save the day! UConn has done something that only seven other programs have done in the history of college basketball, repeat as champions. Forget all the talk about “best team of all-time,” even though if you look at point differential (like it truly matters), this UConn team is the best team to ever play in the NCAA Tournament. This team means much more to the game of college basketball than that. Coach Hurley has given college basketball what it has been missing since the in...

Last Year the Season was one game long, it's different this year

  It took 363 days, but Jets fans finally got the debut from Aaron Rodgers they waited for. This time around that debut ended in a blowout loss on the road to the San Francisco 49’ers. Last year the Jets won the battle but lost the war following their overtime walk-off win against the Buffalo Bills. This year, the Jets hope they lost the battle but because they have Rodgers they will win the war.   Of all the ways the game could have gone last night, having the Jets defense get thoroughly dominated on the ground by a third year running back, Jordan Mason, who wasn’t a household name until last night, wasn’t on the bingo card. The trademark for Robert Saleh has been his defense. That’s what got him hired from San Francisco. The defense is what Jet fans have pointed to as a reason for optimism heading into this year with Rodgers. The defense was finally supposed to get the complimentary football they have been dying for since Robert Saleh walked in the doors at Florham Park...
