Having listened to most Robert Saleh interviews I could find over the last two days, the thing I like most is that he seems confident in our identity. Shanahan-style offense, Saleh-style defense. He keeps preaching that he knows what types of players he wants to fit the system, and it's easy to buy it.
The last two coaches have been completely dull and mostly terrible. The last coach we had that had success here was Rex in his first two seasons. He brought a sense of bravado and made it a lot of fun to be a Jets fan, mostly because of the playoff wins.
There's a lot of Rex in Robert Saleh. He's said in interviews that we will win championships. He's got a mantra of "All Gas, No Brake" to try to build some swagger. He's also got plenty of clips of showing emotion on the sideline.
But the difference is that Saleh says it in a confident way where he isn't trying to be braggadocious at all. Saleh is just convinced that with his defensive vision along with the Shanahan system on offense that the Jets can't help but succeed. And that makes it more sustainable. I hope.
