Jets’ Second Season Odds with Glenn | New York Jets News

0:00It's September 7th from the locker room to your ears. This is New York Jets News. Today, powered by AI. I'm Cory with the story. The New York Jets are gearing up for their second season under head coach Aaron Glen, kicking off September 13th. Glen's first year was a tough one, ending with a three-win 14 loss record, which puts him in a pretty precarious spot heading into year two. Despite the rough start, there's some solid talent on the roster. They've got better in quarterback Geno Smith, a proven receiver in Garrett Wilson, who's hit over a thousand yards multiple times. In running back, Breeze Hall, who just signed a new deal, and is looking to repeat his thousand-yard rushing performance from 2025. Add in rookie defensive player David Bailey, and experience guys like Mika Fitzpatrick and Demario Davis, and you'd think things are looking up. However, the history books aren't exactly on Glen's side. Since the franchise became the Jets back in 1963, 13 permanent head coaches have made it to a second season.

1:00Their combined record in that second year is pretty rough, a-4-0-8 winning percentage, and only four of them managed to reach the playoffs. Some coaches did find success, like Walt Michaels and Bruce Coslett, who both reached eight wins and a playoff birth. Bill Parcels and Rex Ryan also had strong second years with Parcels going 12 and 4 and Ryan 11 and 5. John Robert Salah, who they'll face on September 13th as the Titans head coach, had a decent second year with the Jets, improving from four. Wins and 13 losses to 7 and 10, but for many Jets coaches, year two has been a major step back. Charlie winner and Eric Mangini saw significant drops in their win totals, and Todd Bowles also struggled. Ultimately, coaches like Rich Kotai, Adam Gase, and Eric Mangini didn't even get a third season. That kind of company, Aaron Glenn, is really trying to avoid.
