Jets fire Robert Saleh, where do Rodgers and the Jets go from here?
Robert Saleh’s firing may do something to energize the team, but will it fix the issues on offense?
Sports Seriously
The Buffalo Bills and the New York Jets face off in a crucial AFC East matchup on “Monday Night Football.”
The Jets (2-3) are coming off another rough loss, this time to the Minnesota Vikings in London. There were consequences for this loss: New York head coach Robert Saleh was given his walking papers, setting off panic alarms in Florham Park.
Interim head coach Jeff Ulbrich has his hands full: Not only does he have to navigate the Jets’ offensive conundrum, but the Bills walk into MetLife Stadium hungry for a win after losses in their last two weeks.
Buffalo’s off to a mixed bag of a start, but the positives are due to quarterback play. Josh Allen is off to one of the best starts of his career as he works with new weapons on offense. Historically, Allen hasn’t been great against the Jets, but he has an opportunity to take advantage of a team in turmoil this week.
