effort wasn\u2019t as good<\/a> as I would want it to be. I didn\u2019t think the effort was where it needs to be.\u201d<\/p>\nCriticizing a team\u2019s effort doesn\u2019t reflect well on players and it doesn\u2019t reflect well on the coaches who are supposed to be inspiring the kind of commitment that makes motivation the least of a team\u2019s concerns. On Monday, Glenn walked back those comments in a press conference opening statement by saying film review showed him \u201ceffort was not the issue\u201d and then followed up on that reflection in response to a question about what he saw on film. <\/p>\n
\u201cYou saw our guys; they were running on and off the field the whole time,\u201d Glenn said, via a transcript from the team. \u201cMan, it was nothing about them that they were throwing up the white flag and they were quitting. So, to me, that\u2019s the one thing that I really wanted to look at and see how that was. Again, schematically were there some things that were challenging? Absolutely. But again, our guys did not quit. I mean, they were running to the ball. They were trying to defend the pass. They were doing all those things they need to do to try to win that game, and that was evident when you just go back and watch the game. And again, watching it twice that really showed up.\u201d<\/p>\n
Glenn\u2019s team was outscored by 107 points in four December losses, which doesn\u2019t say much for the scheme, effort or anything else that Glenn has put in place during his first season with the Jets. Assuming he\u2019s back for a second season, there will need to be improvements across the board for his run to go much further. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"After the Jets were blown out by the Patriots on Sunday, their head coach Aaron Glenn had a…\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":480632,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[39],"tags":[1232,62,67,132,68],"class_list":{"0":"post-480631","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-nfl","8":"tag-nfl","9":"tag-sports","10":"tag-united-states","11":"tag-unitedstates","12":"tag-us"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/115810000181911371","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/480631","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=480631"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/480631\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/480632"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=480631"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=480631"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=480631"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
