New York Jets coach Robert Saleh doesn’t want to be told his team is playing well if the squad isn’t winning.
Saleh is entering the most important season of his coaching career, and all eyes are on the Jets now that Aaron Rodgers is in town.
Expectations are soaring, but it certainly hasn’t always been that way. The Jets have been down bad for a long time. Certainly much longer than Saleh’s in town, but his 11-23 record has his job on the line going into year three.

Shedeur Sanders needed just one game to prove he’s the star Colorado needed
For all those that didn’t know: Colorado QB Shedeur Sanders is the real deal.
After throwing for 70 touchdowns over two years as the QB at Jackson State, Sanders followed his father Deion to Colorado. There were many questions about how his game would translate to the Power 5 level after dominating the FCS, and going into a game on the road against TCU those questions would be answered immediately.
Perhaps you’ve heard the adage before: More games are lost than are won. It’s a common refrain in college football to explain how incompetence can lead more to the result of a football game than anything else. Every week there are score lines that are unexpected, and the trickiest thing about it is how small sample sizes can make for flawed takeaways.
The boy in the video is small, only 8 years old, clad in a yellow jersey and white gym shorts. He’s playing basketball, alone at this moment, beckoning a pass. The court he’s playing on is smaller than regulation size; it’s two courts that run horizontally, side by side.
This boy receives the ball, as the game’s final seconds tick away. He dribbles twice with his right hand, plants near midcourt and lets go of a one-handed shot that looks more like a downfield pass. The ball launches from his right hand toward the basket, which is maybe 30 or 40 feet away.
The Chicago White Sox have had a dreadful year and those bad vibes hit a new low Tuesday night when they lost to the last-place Kansas City Royals in embarrassing fashion.
In case you missed it, the bases were loaded in a tie game in the bottom of the ninth inning when White Sox reliever Gregory Santos did the unthinkable—he got called for a balk, which brought home the winning run for the home team.
This isn’t the first time the White Sox have done something this season that had MLB fans roasting them, and it might not be the last, because there is still a bunch of baseball left.
Sometimes the worst news really is no news at all. The Damian Lillard trade saga involving the Heat and Trail Blazers appears to be proving that statement true, at least based on the latest chatter surrounding the topic.
Following Lillard’s trade request and push to land in Miami with Jimmy Butler, Bam Adebayo and company, there hasn’t been much in the way of positive momentum, at least publicly. During a recent episode of The Lowe Post podcast with ESPN’s Zach Lowe and Bobby Marks, they drove that fact home in a pretty big way.
Rusell Wilson arrived in Denver last season and put together the worst season of his career. After the Broncos won just five games for their sixth straight losing season they went out and got Sean Payton in hopes that he can turn the franchise around, and he isn’t going about it with kid’s gloves on.
The majority of the negative last season fell on Wilson’s shoulders, and rightfully so. He is the quarterback and the play was well below average.
The 2023 regular season is finally here! After an exciting offseason that included the retirement of one legendary quarterback, the drawn-out trade process surrounding another, three QBs drafted in the first four picks, an implosion of the running back market, the sale of the Commanders and much more, we are ready for the games to start.
