Robert Saleh, the Jets‘ head coach, took an unconventional approach to building his team. It’s already a successful fan base. Saleh’s decision to surround his players with people he already knows, including some he has worked with in the past.

While some critics have questioned the format, the Jets fans are optimistic about the team’s prospects. Only time will tell if Saleh’s approach pays off, but right now the Jets are an interesting team to watch.

New York Jets head coach refused to draw up a “wish list” of players to bring in, choosing instead to surround his players with people he already knew. Saleh believes this will help establish the system more quickly and help lay a solid foundation for the team.

As a result, Saleh brought several players he has worked with in the past, including Nick Solomon, Thomas, Marcell Harris, DJ Reed, and Juan Alexander, hoping to ensure a smooth transition for the club.

But the most surprising story was Saleh’s decision to replicate the playbook that worked for Tom Brady. The move surprised many, as Rodgers left the Green Bay Packers in search of a better weapon. Saleh defended his decision, saying, “Tom Brady goes to Tampa and he gets Gronkowski and Antonio Brown. So it is very common for new faces to want old faces to be able to come in and help accelerate the installation of a program.”

He believes using a playbook that has proven successful for a veteran quarterback like Brady is the best way to maximize Rodgers’ power.

While some critics have questioned whether this is the right move for a team as young as the Jets, others believe it could be just what the team needs to turn things around. With Rodgers at the helm and a proven playbook of success, the Jets should be able to make a quick run to the playoffs than anyone expected.

Fans reacted optimistically

Robert Saleh is already winning over the fans with his approach to building the team. As one fan said, “What a sick answer. That’s my coach.”

Saleh’s decision to bring in role players and backups he’s worked with before, like Marcell Harris and Solomon Thomas, is also earning him praise from fans.

When it comes to the criticism of the Jets’ aging receivers, fans are ready to defend their team.

Overall, Jets fans seem to have a lot of respect for Saleh and his approach to building the team.

Of course, there are always going to be a few haters out there, but Jets fans are ready to take them on with their own brand of humor. As one fan put it, “And by take notes I mean… with GIF attached stating: GO FUDGE YOURSELF.”
