The New York Jets fired head coach Robert Saleh on Tuesday after a disappointing start to the 2024 season, ESPN NFL insider Adam Schefter reported. Saleh was in his fourth season with the Jets, a team that had high expectations for 2024 with a healthy Aaron Rodgers and a talented offense to go with its lockdown defense. In its first five games, the Jets lost three games, including a loss on Sunday to the undefeated Minnesota Vikings in London. Schefter reported that Jets Defensive Coordinator Jeff Ulbrich will take over as the interim head coach following Saleh’s firing. Saleh went 20-36 as head coach of the Jets. He was hired to take over the Jets team after spending four seasons with the San Francisco 49ers as the defensive coordinator. Saleh’s firing marks the first time Jets owner Woody Johnson has terminated a coach in the middle of the season. Throughout much of Saleh’s tenure with the Jets, the team put up some of the best defensive numbers in the league but struggled to find a reliable quarterback. In the 2023 offseason, the Jets traded for Rodgers, but the quarterback tore his Achilles on his first drive last season. In Saleh’s 56 games, the Jets started six different quarterbacks. Ulbrich’s first game at the helm will take place Monday night against the Buffalo Bills, their division rival currently leading the AFC East, standing at 3-2. Saleh brought Ulbrich to New York in 2021 to coach the defense after Ulbrich spent six seasons with the Atlanta Falcons as a linebackers coach, defensive coordinator, and assistant head coach. The Jets’ defense is currently the #2 defense in the NFL, giving up just 256 yards per game. Am I Racist? Is In Theaters NOW — Get Your Tickets Here! The Jets’ offense has struggled in the early season, scoring just 18.6 points per game, which puts it in the bottom half of the league. The offense also only averages 287 yards per game, the sixth-worst average in the league. Forty-year-old Rodgers, who was traded to the Jets from Green Bay in April 2023, has taken on more of the offensive burden as the season has progressed. In Sunday’s loss to the Vikings, the veteran quarterback threw 54 passes and was picked off three times. The week before, Rodgers threw 42 passes against the Denver Broncos in the Jets’ one-point loss.

With Hurricane Milton set to make landfall in Florida tomorrow, countless folks have begun to prepare. This includes, of course, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). In the United States, they provide us with the vital info we need to have regarding storms. But have you ever wondered exactly how they get details on hurricanes before they make landfall? There are a couple of ways, actually, but there is one that might surprise you. One you might expect is through the use of satellites. While this is helpful, NOAA needs to sample storms directly for more detailed info we couldn’t get otherwise. This allows us to get the most accurate forecast that we can. So, to do this, NOAA sends out Hurricane Hunters. In other words, these brave experts venture out in aircrafts that go directly through hurricanes. Get a glimpse into what these bumpy rides are like in the video below. @salty_aviator Watched the NOAA Hurricane Hunters work their magic today while flying through Hurricane Milton. We went out there expecting a Category 1 and we found a Category 4. Had my first 3 ever eye wall penetrations! It was amazing seeing this team work cohesively together in order to gather data that is necessary for updating the hurricane’s predicted trajectory and potential impacts! #hurricanemilton #hurricane #hurricanehunters #flynoaa #noaa #noaacorps #category4 #nhc #nationalhurricanecenter #weather ♬ Free Bird – MOONLGHT Wow, what an intense ride! The turbulence experienced in an average plane ride must feel like nothing compared to these dangerous winds. And still, these Hurricane Hunters are capable of navigating their way through the chaos, all so we can stay informed. How cool is that!? NOAA Hurricane Hunters Prep for Hurricane Milton by Flying Directly Through the Storm View this post on Instagram A post shared by NOAA Aircraft Ops Center (@flynoaa) Whenever these Hurricane Hunters are set to fly through a storm, they’re sure to take a ride on one of three aircrafts. Their journey and mission are always serious, but their aircrafts have been given quite silly, and oddly comforting, names. All three originate from The Muppets: Miss Piggy, Kermit, and Gonzo. “I will forever remember airplanes can handle this so I can handle a lil bumps on my flights,” someone takes note in the comment section, with another adding, “Literal heroes who deserve to be recognized for risking their lives to save others!” You can find the source of this story’s featured image here!

She assumed that was why he was wandering by the side of the road. However, he reassured her that this wasn’t the case — he just wanted to look at the pretty, purple flowers growing amid the tall grass. “You broke down?” the kind stranger shouted. “You need some help?” The man replied, “No, I’m good. I’m looking at the flowers.” Screengrab from TikTok When the woman heard his reply, she thought it was pretty cute that this guy had stopped for such a sweet reason. “That’s so nice,” she said. “They’re beautiful, ain’t they?” He had to agree. Although this was the end of the short exchange, it clearly left an impression on the man. Commenters also really enjoyed seeing two strangers having such a positive interaction. “How kind of her to be offering help like that to a stranger,” one user wrote. “I’m usually too anxious to ask.” Another added, “Both of you are adorable.” At the end of this man’s video, he managed to capture some lovely, close-up footage of a butterfly that had landed on one of the blooms. All in all, it seems like taking a detour along the side of the road was the right decision. It’s amazing what happens when you literally stop and smell the flowers, isn’t it?
