CHICAGO - Given all the emphasis and attention placed on foot fetishes this past week, it would be trite to say the New York Jets shot themselves in the foot in Sunday's 38-34 loss to the Chicago Bears.
But karma has a funny way of turning things around in literally a footstep, no pun intended. No sooner did a disconsolate Jets coach Rex Ryan begin talking to the media about how disappointed he was in the loss to the Bears, and how the Jets would have to play their way into the playoffs in the season finale against Buffalo, a huge roar came from within the adjacent Jets locker room at Soldier Field.
"We're in, we're in," came shouts from the other side of the door.
And with that, Ryan's demeanor did an immediate 180-degree turn. Instead of continuing to fret and frown, a previously somber Ryan broke into a huge grin.
"Uh, by the way, I think we're in the playoffs," Ryan quipped. "It ain't the way I wanted it, but I'll take it. Whew, my goodness."
