HBO's Hard Knocks showed NFL fans that Jets' coach Robert Saleh is building a new culture for a franchise that has struggled to find an identity since the days of the "Sack Exchange."
On Sunday, the Jets earned perhaps the biggest "signature" win in Saleh's tenure by upsetting the previously unbeaten Eagles. During the win, the coach's captivating enthusiasm was on full display.
Quincy Williams, in the midst of a Pro Bowl season, was flying all over the field, recording a game-high 12 tackles. Among those was a crucial open-field tackle on elusive Eagles wideout Devonta Smith on third down, forcing the Eagles into a fourth down heave on the final drive in the fourth quarter.
During the pivotal play, cameras captured Saleh on the sideline performing Quincy's signature celebration move.

The move, normally reserved for sacks, was performed by both Saleh and Williams in perfect unison, delivering arguably one of the best moments during a thrilling game in Week 6.
