Todd Bowles, the rookie head coach of the Jets, has revealed himself to be unflappable. No matter what happens — and unfathomable turmoil and adversity already have happened under his watch — he acts like he has been there before. Even though he hasn’t been there before.
Bowles is being tested in a way no other Jets rookie head coach has been tested, and that’s saying plenty. It’s as if Rex Ryan is sticking pins in a green-and-white voodoo doll. Bowles must think this is the El Niño of Murphy’s Laws. The good news is he appears tough enough to weather the inevitable Jets storms.
