Ex-Commanders QB Robert Griffin III, speaking on ‘Get Up,’ urged the New York Jets and their fans to avoid predicting losses and remain calm if they begin with a 2-4 record. A rapid start isn’t vital for Super Bowl triumph; he cited the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, led by Tom Brady, who won without winning their division.

Robert Griffin III explaining at ‘Get Up’ – “Well, I wouldn’t say I’m trying to give the Jets losses, right? We’ve got to slow it down. I know the schedule release happened, but if they did get off to a 2-4 start, Jets fans, don’t panic. Calm down, take a deep breath. Understand that you don’t have to have a fast start to win the Super Bowl. And you also don’t even have to win your own division to win the Super Bowl because Tom Brady and the Bucs did that just a few years ago.”
