There is a skill to winning games. It goes beyond simply playing well or producing strong stats.
It’s a skill that has eluded a Jets roster for years. It is perhaps head coach Aaron Glenn’s greatest challenge — getting a group that has become accustomed to so much losing to develop a killer instinct at the end of games. For the best teams, it is a habit that becomes second nature. For teams like the one Glenn took over, it is what turns potential victories into moral victories.
In a league in which there are so many close games, it is so often what separates teams.
“We just gotta find a way to finish, to come out on top,” Garrett Wilson said after the 34-32 Week 1 loss to the Steelers on Sunday at MetLife Stadium. “There’s a nuance to that and we gotta acquire the skill over these weeks of practice.”
