Give Jeremy Bates credit. At least the Jets offensive coordinator has a sense of humor. Ask him the biggest issue he has faced over the first three weeks of the season and he’ll point to repeated problems with his headsets.
“Three times our headsets failed us,” Bates said Thursday at the Jets’ practice facility in Florham Park. “I’m not throwing anyone under the bus, but the button stopped working. We’ve tried to correct it. Obviously, we understand that can happen anytime, especially in New England.”
Later he deadpanned about technology: “I’ve always said, you can FaceTime people in China, but our headsets go out.
