The turnaround of the Commanders franchise underscores the importance of a positive, winning culture - something my Jets are completely lacking. 

Sure, the Commanders drafted a first rate QB, and that’s a critical element. But we had a 4-time MVP. 

It’s more than that. Just look at the close games. The Commanders found ways to win. We found ways to lose. 

Commanders HC Dan Quinn is a fine head coach. Sure, he’s probably most remembered for blowing the lead against the Patriots in Super Bowl LI. But to do that, you have to reach the SB in the first place - something the Jets haven’t even sniffed in a decade and a half. 

Of course, a winning culture starts at the top. Commanders owner Josh Harris has had a lifetime of runaway success. He’s gifted with exceptional drive and focus - traits that have made him hugely successful in business. 

Woody, meanwhile, is a feckless nincompoop who has accomplished nothing of consequence in his 77 years. The hardest thing he’s ever done is hang around long enough to inherit the family fortune. 

It’s difficult to see how the Jets can ever become a successful franchise with him at the helm.
