Robert Saleh gave Dolphins fans another reason to laugh at the Jets

It's been a week since the New York Jets made the stunning decision to fire Robert Saleh and hit the reset button at the head coach position. It was funny for Miami Dolphins fans then to see the Jets, a team that was being tabbed as a Super Bowl contender, floundering despite having Aaron Rodgers back in their starting lineup.
