Members of the Jets defense don’t feel sorry for each other when something doesn’t go someone’s way on the field.

Safety Jamal Adams spoke to the media Monday and explained to reporters that the Jets have a “Feelings Report” in their defense room. The report details when a player gets called out for a mistake and throws a fit afterward. When that happens, their name gets put up on the board and that player is subject to a punishment such as push-ups.

“We don’t tolerate that as a defense,” Adams said. “We communicate, we hold each other accountable and as long as we’re on the same page we’ll be fine and like I said we’ll give ourselves a chance.”

Adams admitted that he has found his way on the board a couple times during training camp, as have others. Asked if Gregg Williams has been listed, Adams said the defensive coordinator would fight whoever dared to make such a suggestion. The point of the board, however, is to work on communication skills.

Communication is crucial for an NFL defense. One little mishap can lead to busted coverage or result in a long touchdown. The Jets made a ton of mistakes communication-wise last season and it cost them some games, so now they’re getting creative in their attempts to limit such errors.

It’s an interesting way to hold each other accountable, but the players and coaches seem to like it and think it will be useful for them. At the end of the day, the Jets want to win and they’re not going to do that by making excuses for each other.
