As the New York Jets continue to struggle in the 2025 NFL season, ESPN host Mike Greenberg did not hold back his criticism. Following the team’s disappointing tie against the Miami Dolphins, Greenberg expressed his frustration, labeling the team’s performance as a series of “unimaginably dumb things.”
This sentiment reflects the growing discontent among fans and analysts regarding the team’s direction under first-year head coach Aaron Glenn. Greenberg’s remarks highlight New York’s ongoing issues with discipline and execution.

The team has started the season with four consecutive defeats, raising questions about Glenn’s ability to lead effectively. Critics, including Greenberg, suggest that the Jets appear poorly coached, struggling with basic fundamentals that are essential for success in the league.
In his analysis, Greenberg pointed out that the team’s recurring mistakes mirror the franchise’s long history of underachievement. He emphasized that the team’s lack of preparation and failure to learn from past mistakes are indicative of deeper issues within the organization. Fans are left wondering how long it will take for the team to turn its fortunes around.
Despite the bleak assessment, some believe that the Jets possess the talent to improve as the season progresses. With playmakers like quarterback Justin Fields and a few talented receivers, there is potential for a turnaround if the coaching staff can address the team’s shortcomings. However, the repeated blunders on the field have eroded optimism among supporters.
