Woody Johnson is trying not to get ahead of himself.

While the Jets owner is optimistic following his team’s surprising 4-2 start, Johnson is also taking the long view.

“It feels great,” Johnson told NFL.com at the owners’ meetings last week. “The fans are ecstatic. They love what we’ve done so far, but this is a long season, it’s a marathon. [Head] coach [Robert Saleh] is right. Forget about what we’ve done, concentrate on what we have to do this week.”

“I think it’s early in the season but it looks positive so far. The team’s coming together, culture is taking hold. The young players, rookies are playing great and the veterans … Duane Brown, he’s a man. When I saw him leading [Braxton Berrios] into the end zone, I said, that’s pretty impressive.”

After suffering a season-opening, 24-9 loss to the Baltimore Ravens, the Jets have won four of their last five, with double-digit wins in the last two weeks over the Dolphins and Packers. Both New York teams are above .500, with the Giants sitting at 5-1 entering Sunday.

Johnson made sure to point out the successes the team’s general manager and head coach – Joe Douglas and Robert Saleh – have had in 2022.

“They’re both very impressive,” Johnson said. “I think the coach is very thoughtful, knows the game, knows the defense, knows the complete game. And Joe is Joe. Joe is steady Joe. He’s doing a good job of putting a team together in coordination with coach like I’ve really never seen. It’s really a symphony of effort. It’s wonderful to see. Now, off to Denver.”

The Jets are in Denver Sunday to face the Broncos, who will be without quarterback Russell Wilson due to a hamstring injury. Brett Rypien will start in his place.
