The New York Jets don’t have any cadence issues, and they certainly don’t have any issues with head coach Robert Saleh.Â
Four-time league MVP Aaron Rodgers confirmed as much during an appearance on “The Pat McAfee Show” this week after Saleh seemed to question if the Jets were “good enough” to handle Rodgers’ cadence after several pre-snap penalties in Sunday’s loss to the Denver Broncos.Â

He walked those comments back eventually, admitting it was more of an “operation” issue.Â

“We’re always going to push the envelope with cadence. Always,” he said Monday. “But, with regards to operation, getting in and out of the huddle, getting to the line of scrimmage, the communication that’s being had, those are all things that we can continue to look at and clean up.”Â
The Jets committed seven pre-snap penalties — five on offense and two on defense. Rodgers said Tuesday the fault lies in execution and with the players, not coaches.Â
“Everything that we do in the game, we do in practice,” he said. “Nobody deserves any crap for that except the players.”Â
