From a Bucs writer. Comparing all 32 WC teams to NFL teams. Compares the Jets to Russia -- he does not appear to be much of a fan of ours. Or Russia for that matter. www.pewterreport.com/cover-3-american-football-fans-guide-world-cup-counterparts-32-nfl-teams/Cover 3: An American Football Fan’s Guide To The World Cup; Counterparts For All 32 NFL TeamsGroup A Russia: New York Jets
Winning the rights to host the 2018 World Cup was the only way this Russian squad was going to even make it into the tournament, and for the Jets, if that rule existed in the NFL, that would probably be their only way in, too. Going back to 2016, Russia has won just six out of their last 19 contests, and coincidentally enough, going back to 2016, the Jets have won just six out of their last 19 contests, as well.
Due to an unfortunate timing of veterans retiring from international play as well as injuries to some of the players they have brought in to try to replace them, Russia is anything but ready to compete at the highest level, even with some scattered talent along their roster. You could say the same for the Jets, who beyond a few proven players here and there, are really just waiting for that next wave of younger drafted players to take the reigns and form a new regime.
As for 2018, there isn’t much hope for either of these squads, who seem to have a lot of figuring out to do.
