Kansas City – Jets star wide receiver Brandon Marshall had some powerful words after the team lost 24-3 to Kansas City at Arrowhead Stadium.
“We can only go two ways as a team after a smack in the face like this,” Marshall said. “We can fold and not gel as a team or you can use this as a character-building and look at what is going on internally. Our leaders need to step up and do a better job. (We need to) look at the X’s and O’s, see how we can correct it. We have too much firepower on this team to be sitting in a stadium like this. We have a lot of work to do. This one hurts. It’s embarrassing. It should sit with us for a while. But as soon as get ready to roll on Wednesday after watching the film, it needs to be in the past. But this is a character-building game. And next week, the real team should emerge, whatever on it is.”
The Jets play the Seattle Seahawks next Sunday at MetLife Stadium.
