Look out, Broadway Joe: There’s a new guarantee man in the Jets’ house.
New York Jets defensive end Mo Wilkerson said on Tuesday that he guarantees his team will win more than the 5 games they won last year.
Jets DE Mo Wilkerson said the Jets will finish with more than the 5 wins they had last season. "I guarantee that," he said.

Though guaranteeing you’ll win more than five games isn’t saying a whole lot, it’s important to have that kind of optimism entering a season. The Jets were a 10-win team two seasons ago, so they probably feel they have enough talent around to win.
However, Brandon Marshall is gone, Ryan Fitzpatrick is gone, Darrelle Revis is gone, and the team is trying to trade a few more veteran defensive players. They also don’t have much of a quarterback. Don’t be surprised if the team can’t even make good on Wilkerson’s promise.
