Michael Carter was talking about the Jets’ level of confidence, and about how they are perceived by outsiders.
"We don’t read anything anybody says," he told an SNY reporter in London on Sunday. "We think we’re good."
Fair enough. But had the Jets running back read what many were saying and writing before the game against the Falcons at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, he would have found plenty who agreed.
OK, maybe not "good," but at least "headed in the right direction" after an upset of the Titans the previous week in which quarterback Zach Wilson made several big plays, as did the defense.
