What already has Boomer Esiason worried about Jets’ potential Aaron Glenn hire
NY Post
Boomer Esiason sees the Jets doing the same thing and expecting different results.
With Gang Green trending toward hiring the tandem of Aaron Glenn and Lance Newmark for their head coach and general manager openings, respectively, the former Jets quarterback doesn’t like the idea of another first-year head coach getting a shot in the Big Apple.
“I don’t necessarily know that the Jets, because we’ve seen it, it’s not the best place for an inexperienced head coach,” Esiason said on his “Boomer and Gio” WFAN radio show.
Co-host Gregg Giannotti agreed that after firing Robert Saleh early in the season to just turn around and hire another young defensive coach could be their undoing.
Saleh was hired after having no head coaching experience, although he sparkled during his time as the defensive coordinator for the 49ers.
“For [owner Woody Johnson] to just now repeat the same pattern and go find a coordinator who is a first-time head coach and do this all over again. Defensive, by the way,” Giannotti added
The Jets landed their head coach on Wednesday, hiring Aaron Glenn as the 19th head coach in team history.
Former Lions offensive coordinator Ben Johnson departed for the division rival Chicago Bears on Monday, and while Detroit will miss its offensive coordinator dearly, that won’t stop star receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown from competing with him.
NFL officials were heavily scrutinized for some of the flags they threw in the four divisional-round games that saw the Chiefs, Bills, Eagles and Commanders advance to next weekend’s conference championships.
It is a classy class. It was already a classy class because Dave Parker and Dick Allen were a part of it, after the veterans committee righted a few decades of wrongs by welcoming them to Cooperstown back in December.
Other than Karl-Anthony Towns around the paint and Josh Hart’s big rebound, there wasn’t much impressive about the way the Knicks performed Tuesday.

I’d never quite seen anything like the 19-game stretch bridging November and December in which the Rangers won four and lost 15 in regulation.
In a different time, in a season to come, we may be inclined to wax poetic about the way this one played out. In a different time, in a season to come, the Nets will be seeking to stack wins and not losses, will be fighting for playoff seeding and not for a few extra ping-pong balls in the draft lottery this spring.
The Jets spent Tuesday huddling with their top choices for their head coach and general manager openings but still had not closed a deal with them as of Tuesday night.
Entrenched in the Eastern Conference wild-card race, the Rangers are making their push.
It was a long time coming, but Billy Wagner finally closed it out.
The NBA has an All-Star Game problem. Despite Adam Silver’s efforts to inject juice into the February showcase — including a format alteration to the 2025 game that is too confusing to attempt to understand before it’s inevitably changed again — there’s little interest in watching teams eschew defense for a series of layup line highlights. That also means the most entertaining part of the NBA All-Star Game is just like the Pro Bowl — debating over who should get a spot.

Which came first: stability within the lineup or stability on the ice?
The Jets have never exactly been masters of great timing.
Artemi Panarin, Vincent Trocheck and Alexis Lafreniere were the most productive line at five-on-five in the NHL last season.
