Is Saleh laughing all the way to the bank...?

Kind of like when Joe Namath went to the Rams.

Personality difference between Rogers and the coach is my guess. Did you see a couple weeks ago when the coach went to congratulate Rogers? Rogers gave him the fish eye look. Really awkward.

Wearing another county’s flag on a NFL uniform is especially bad form...

Wearing a United States flag on an NFL uniform is especially bad form - even before the NFL draped themselves with labels from Communist organizations such as Black Lives MatterTM.

Very good DC with my 49ers, not a very good head coach. Fromer 49ers linebacker Jeff Ulbrich takes over as interim HC.

Long-term - why not Belichik? Was Woody Johnson the owner when Belichik stiffed the Jets back in the '90s?

Saleh should’ve been fired three years ago- only Rodgers getting hurt last season saved his skin.

Watch the Jets double down on their foolery and elevate Hackett to HC

That idiot team actually had Tim Tebow and treated him like crap and sat him on the bench.

“Social media has been crazy because Saleh wore Lebanese flag, his home country.”

I thought he was supposed to be an American. Nobody here wants to hear about the old country.

Does the fired coach have a $20 million buyout like college coaches that suck?

I think the days of the high-paid college coaches are coming to an end.

Now programs will have front offices to do most of the tasks, while coaches are just there for Xs and Os.

Jets need to hire a real leader of men like Mike Vrabel. Saleh was a pussy who threw tantrums every 5 minutes and no one on the team respected him. And his support for Hezbollah was yet another stupid distraction for this team.

Saleh got fired for wearing the Lebanese flag. In Tottenham, a Muslim section of London. There are probably 25 Jewish Jet fans for every Muslim, and 100 Jewish season ticket holders for every Muslim.

That makes more sense.

The Jets are 2-3 but not looking too bad. There must be some other reason why he was fired.

One poster said the moron was fired for wearing the Lebanese flag the day before October 7. If so, good riddance.

The Jets are mediocre certainly, but at 2 - 3 they are certainly not the worst team in the league, and firing your coach mid-season is usually a move of desperation. I wondered on Sunday why Saleh was brought back for this season... Jets should haver made a change in the offseason.
