Ryan causing trouble for himself

He claims it’s personal

Once again, with feeling, Ryan has gone out of his way to apply unnecessary pressure to his own team. The Jets will face Manning’s Indianapolis Colts in the first round of the playoffs on Manning’s turf, where, of course, the Jets’ season went to die in last year’s AFC title game.

And yet Ryan has spent the past 48 hours ensuring that the hosting quarterback and his hosting friends will show up as motivated as they were to beat the Chicago Bears in the Super Bowl four years back.

But this isn’t only about riling up the other team and one of the great franchise players of all time. It’s about weighing down the Jets with a burden they shouldn’t have to bear.
