50% record, 40% Rodgers, 10% Jets owner is a massive Trumper dickhead.
In all seriousness though was he expected to beat arguably the best team in the NFL right now to keep his job? It’s not even like it’s their bye week or anything. Bizarre timing, but it is the Jets…
Let's be honest, the real breakdown is 100% "It's the Jets". That team is always a mess.
That said, i was surprised that they didn't fire Saleh in the offseason, i just don't think he is a particularly good HC. I think he built an outstanding defense but overall the team is was too undisciplined under him and he clearly just didn't have a feel of how to run (or identify people who could do it for him) an effective offense.
Gotta wonder how the team reacts to this. Saleh was liked by a bunch of the players, particularly the defensive players. Those defensive players have to be wondering how firing Saleh will fix an offense led by a aging QB who may or may not have crossed the road to "washed" (i'm not sold that he is entirely) that has been stunningly bad especially when the OC wasn't fired but is being demoted for a new playcaller (which sounds like the exact same plan Saleh had) and the new playcaller is far from a offensive genius himself. Seems like they shuffled the chairs on deck but didn't address the water coming in over the sides.
