Was the Jets’ win over the Patriots on Thursday more because of the offense or defense?
Even head coach Robert Saleh couldn’t decide so everyone got some love in his post-win locker room speech.
The Jets topped the Patriots in their home opener at MetLife Stadium in a 24-3 final.
The defensive-minded coach made sure to tip his cap to that side of the ball first. Then he moved over to quarterback Aaron Rodgers.
When the coach mentioned that the 40-year-old rushed for 18 yards? That stat, above all else, got the loudest reaction of all from his players.
