I can’t wait to watch this game Sunday! It’s gonna get crazy.
The month-old “Hot Sauce” controversy between the New York Jets and Miami Dolphins went from mild to extra spicy Wednesday.
Jets coach Rex Ryan said he wants Dolphins running back Reggie Bush to apologize for his “what-goes-around-comes-around” comment from Week 3. Bush, speaking two days after the Jets’ Week 3 win in Miami, intimated that cornerback Darrelle Revis deserved his season-ending knee injury.
As for Ryan’s players, well, they just want Bush, period.
“We want to knock him out, but we’re out to do it legally,” linebacker Aaron Maybin said.
Bush couldn’t finish the first meeting because of a second-quarter knee injury. Safety LaRon Landry, who made the initial hit on the play, said Bush will be haunted by it when the teams meet again Sunday at MetLife Stadium.
“Every time he sees me, he will remember that hit,” Landry said. “If I’m in the box or I’m going downhill, he’ll remember that hit.”
Landry has been called for three personal-foul penalties this season, but he said he’s not about to change his physical style of play.
“If I get penalized, I’m not going to stop head-hunting,” he said. “I’m not going to stop the way I play.”
Considering the bad blood, it figures to be an intense rematch between these AFC East rivals.
