FLORHAM PARK, N.J. (AP) -Mike Westhoff is never satisfied, no matter how the New York Jets’ special teams unit performs.
The longtime coordinator strives for perfection, and it rubs off on his players.
“We were messing around with him the other day and asking him if he’s ever happy because we played OK on Sunday,” wide receiver Brad Smith said Friday. “One of the guys said, ‘Hey, you can smile now,’ and he was like, ‘No.’ He wants to win every single play, and that makes him different. It makes us want to win every play.”
It also makes the Jets’ special teams unit one of the best in the league year after year. Coach Rex Ryan said special teams was the biggest difference in New York beating Tennessee 24-17 last Sunday and improving to 3-0.
