In this episode of The Way It Is, we’re at MetLife Stadium for the New York Jets vs. Tampa Bay Buccaneers preseason matchup, talking to fans before and after the game to find out how they REALLY feel about their teams heading into the 2026 NFL season.

The Jets enter a new era under head coach John Harbaugh, with rookie quarterback Cade Klubnik getting his first taste of NFL action. After a tumultuous 2025 season that landed New York the No. 2 overall pick and David Bailey, there’s plenty of new talent and optimism surrounding the team.

But are Jets fans actually buying into it?

On the other side, the Buccaneers are looking to bounce back after missing the playoffs last season and prove they can get back into the NFC postseason picture.

We talked to Jets and Buccaneers fans before and after the game to get their predictions, expectations, reactions and unfiltered takes on where these teams are headed this season.

Who has more reason to be optimistic in 2026: Jets fans or Buccaneers fans? Drop your take in the comments.

FINAL SCORE:
Tampa Bay Buccaneers 24
New York Jets 16
