Jets coach Aaron Glenn came to the Detroit Lions as their defensive coordinator when they hired Dan Campbell to be their head coach. Glenn will have to remind himself that building up the Lions, one of the historically worst franchises in the NFL, wasn’t easy or fast.

It took Campbell a long time to get his first win. The 2021 Lions started the season 0-10-1. Eventually, the Lions became a Super Bowl contender, but it was a difficult process. It’s a lesson that might serve Glenn well this season in his first year as New York Jets head coach.

The Jets are one of the worst franchises in the NFL and one of the worst teams in 2025. They couldn’t even beat an 0-3 Miami Dolphins team on Monday night. The Dolphins won 27-21, though it was costly with Tyreek Hill leaving with a graphic knee injury in the third quarter. But the Dolphins were clearly the better team. That’s not great news for the Jets going forward.
