The New York Jets made a lot of noise throughout the media, when they signed Aaron Glenn to be their head coach on January 25th, 2025. Glenn had been linked to signing with the Jets while being the Detroit Lions defensive coordinator.

Glenn throughout his years was also a former player for the Jets himself, and was a scout with Jets many years ago. As of right now it is going to take some time to see how this goes.

I personally like the move because Glenn understands the pressures of a team that is in the New York Tri State area. Glenn also brings a positive attitude to New York that was shown in Detroit alongside the positivity of head coach Dan Campbell.

Throughout the season I thought firing Saleh during the middle of the season was not a wise move, as I felt it brought a lot of distress to the team and its chemistry. The Jets had to go the rest of the season with many headlines which was distracting to the team, especially regarding Rodger’s future.

The New York Jets have been a team that have not seen a playoff berth since 2010, and it is embarrassing when all these years it has been because of many system’s not working. Aaron Glenn has a lot of work to do regarding how he is going to handle this job.

Daboll and Schoen Keep Their Jobs

The New York Giants have decided to keep Brian Daboll as head coach and Joe Schoen as president. The Giants just came off a 3-14 season, and many fans were led to believe both Daboll and Schoen were to be fired by team president John Mara.

Brian Daboll who just finished his third season with the team, has not been able to replicate his first year with the Giants which led to a playoff appearance and a win in the Wild Card round against the Minnesota Vikings.

The Giants went through some drama when they had released quarterback Daniel Jones after they decided to bench him, and he had asked for his release after the benching.

Now the fans are wondering what this means for their future as they now hold the number three pick in the NFL draft with the assumption they go after a quarterback.

The New York Jets are set to interview Rex Ryan on January 7th, 2025. Rex Ryan had previously coached the Jets from 2009-2014.

Many fans are familiar with Rex Ryan as he was the last head coach to lead the Jets into the playoffs back in the 2010 season. Ryan has a 46-50 record with his years with the Jets.

Ryan after being dismissed from the Jets, went on to become the head coach for Jets rival, the Buffalo Bills, from 2015-16.

Many fans have had mixed feelings about this news as they wonder if the Jets were to sign him, can he lead them back to success. Many question if he could help the quarterback situation.

The Jets have been in the news the entire season with Rodger’s future in question, the firing of Robert Saled and Joe Douglas, and performing under the expectations they gave coming into the season.

Rex Ryan has been an analyst for the past few years, since he was fired from the Bills. He had advertised that he would like a chance to return to the team, and help with the issues the team has gone through.

The Jets are still in process of interviewing other candidates, but right now this one has been one of the most eye-grabbing candidates amongst Jets fans.

Mike Evans, who has been with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers since being drafted with them in 2014 out of Texas A&M. Evans has been always producing high numbers since the start of his career.

A Crazy Weekend of Football

This past weekend has been one of the craziest sequences in both collegiate and professional levels of football.

In college football it showed all the teams clinching their spots to compete for their respective conference championships and also a potential berth in the college football playoff in the new twelve team format.

One of the biggest storylines of college football was Michigan spoiling their rival’s Ohio State chance to compete for the Big Ten conference championship. This is the fourth year in a row that Ohio State has lost to Michigan and missed out at the conference title game. The game also ended with a big fight over Michigan looking to plant their team flag on the Ohio State logo in the middle of the field.

In the NFL, you still have a few weeks of football before the postseason comes to play. So far you have the Lions, Bills, and Eagles who have been the best teams in the league.

During the Texans vs Jaguars game, Azeez Al-Shaair landed a major hit on Trevor Lawrence while sliding. After the sequence, it caused a major fight in which Jaguars players came after Al-Shaair and the Texans’ sidelines started to come out.

In the world of football, all you can say is that anything can happen, and emotions can get the best of anyone.
