There have been many weird comparisons in the world of sports. However, the recent New York Jets’ comparison to the crazy fictional character, Kramer, from Seinfeld has to be the weirdest.
In the span of less than ten days, the Jets shocked everyone with two big decisions related to the team. First, firing head coach Robert Saleh following the dismal loss against the Minnesota Vikings in week 5 and then, acquiring veteran wide receiver Davante Adams via a trade deal with the Las Vegas Raiders.
Although both the decisions were anticipated at some point of time in the future, the abrupt timing certainly took everyone by surprise. In the latest edition of The Herd with Colin Cowherd, analogy enthusiast Colin Cowherd seemed to have viewed some pattern regarding the Jets’ big decisions, which heavily resembles the philosophy of Cosmo Kramer from Seinfeld.
The franchises that constantly make changes in the NFL: Carolina, Jets, Raiders, Browns– how are you doin’? It’s just insane to me, you know what the Jets have become? They’ve become Kramer on Seinfeld. They break through the door every single week with a new idea. And while he was very very entertaining; Kramer was known as ‘the crazy one.’

If the Jets intend to view Cowherd’s insult from a different perspective, not all ideas of Kramer were bad, some were legitimately good. Perhaps, these two crucial decisions by the Jets may prove to the latter part of the sentence.
Colin Cowherd compares Jets’ approach to winning with the Yankees and Patriots’ stability
While speaking on the subject of the Jets, Cowherd criticized their philosophy of making big changes to achieve success and argued that success comes through repetition as followed by many teams across the league.
He backed his argument by illustrating the set pattern used by successful franchises such as the New England Patriots in the era of Tom Brady and Bill Belichick which lasted for more than two decades and brought them six Super Bowl rings. The other example he used was the New York Yankees with 27 championship titles– most by any team in major U.S. professional Sports.
The winningest franchise in New York and it’s not close as the New York Yankees. The Steinbrenners have owned them– the families since the early 70s. And Brian Cashman has been the GM, all the noise of the interweb talk radio and New York is fire. Brian Cashman: the longest-tenured Yankees GM ever.

Furthermore, Cowherd named the Kansas City Chiefs, who don’t make big changes within the franchise and have won three Super Bowl trophies in the last five years. He advised the Jets to chase repetition and stability rather than big changes and win every single week to see the bigger picture.
