The New York Jets are charting a new flight plan under Aaron Glenn and Darren Mougey.
It's been 14 consecutive seasons without a playoff appearance for New York, a streak the new regime is determined to end. There has been a noticeable shift in the way "Gang Green" does business in the months since the duo took over. They avoided the quick fix with a big spending spree in free agency. The organizational leaks have seemingly stopped.
As for the roster, Aaron Rodgers is out as the team instead opted to invest in 26-year-old Justin Fields. The hope is that they can fix the signal caller and turn his career around. Time will tell if that actually happens, but the Jets aren't afraid to go down swinging.
That paves the way for an interesting conclusion to the offseason in the shadows of the Big Apple. The Jets entered each of the last two seasons dreaming of winning the Super Bowl. Expectations aren't scraping the sky this year though.
The Jets have a fanbase starving for a playoff appearance. They might even settle for a competitive team that hovers around .500.
Yet the team hasn't even been able deliver those results in recent history. Glenn and Mougey have a tall task in front of them, but have a foundation in place. While the rule hasn't applied to the green-and-white, things change fast in the NFL. Like every other team, they're one good draft away from making some noise.
