Known as a malcontent early in his career, Brandon Marshall is trying to rally the struggling New York Jets with a positive attitude.The outspoken wide receiver acknowledged Monday that not every teammate is buying his message.Some do, we dont need all, Marshall said. We just need the right guys to feel that way. You need your leaders to have this kind of energy, this type of outlook. Thats all you need.On Sunday, Marshall stood in the middle of a depressed visitors locker room after the teams third straight defeat -- a 31-13 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers -- and tried to be a cheerleader. Surrounded by reporters, he clapped his hands and let out a loud whoop.It was a surreal scene, considering the Jets plight.Everyone reacts differently, Marshall said. Some guys are sad over the loss, some guys are pissed off, some guys may even be ready to give up, but we have the right guys with this type of energy, this type of outlook that will get it turned around.Facing a difficult schedule, the Jets (1-4) have lost to four 2015 playoff teams. It doesnt get much easier. Next up are the Arizona Cardinals (2-3), yet another opponent that made the postseason last year.Marshall said he expects the Jets to get killed in the streets and killed in the media because of the disappointing start, but he believes the adversity will strengthen their resolve.Failure speeds up the growth process, he said. Thats what Im excited about. Weve had a lot of failure these first five games and were growing rapidly because we have no choice.Coach Todd Bowles is dealing with the first three-game losing streak of his 21-game tenure. His defense has yielded at least a 100 passer rating in every game, and the entire team has performed poorly in the second half of games.In the past three games, theyve been outscored a combined 37-7 in the third and fourth quarters. Their only touchdown came on a fluke play, a fumble recovery.Weve got to take a hard look at that and figure it out because that has been a recurring problem, said quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick, who has nine interceptions and only two touchdown passes during the losing streak.We play hard, we play tough, we play smart most of the games, Bowles said. We just have to find a way to turn the corner.Only 6 percent of the teams that began 1-4 under the current playoff format made the playoffs. Barring a major turnaround, the Jets will miss the postseason for the sixth straight year.Bowles said hes not planning any staff changes to shake up the organization.We have a good plan in place, we have a good staff in place, he said. Our players, for the most part, are playing tough football right now. Its just a matter of making some critical changes in the second half as far as making plays. I dont feel theres a need to change right now.Giovani dos Santos Mexico Jersey .

Only five of those players ever won a single major the following year, and its an elite group -- Arnold Palmer, Jack Nicklaus, Lee Trevino, Tom Watson and Tiger Woods.Woods is the only player to win two majors in consecutive seasons.Spieth is not trying to salvage his season at the PGA Championship. All but four players would love to have his year of two victories and a close call at the Masters. The exceptions are the three major champions and Jason Day, the only three-time winner on the PGA Tour this year.It only seems like a struggle for Spieth because of endless comparisons with last year.Thats what led Spieth to try to reason with the media, and perhaps to remind himself, of the reality he is facing.I think its been a solid year, and I think had last year not happened Id be having a lot of positive questions, Spieth said after the British Open. Instead, most of the questions I get are comparing to last year and, therefore, negative because its not to the same standard. So thats almost tough to then convince myself that youre having a good year ... when the questions I get make me feel like its not.Trouble is, last year did happen. Comparisons were inevitable.Graeme McDowell recalls his magical season in 2010 when he won the U.S. Open at Pebble Beach and delivered the winning point from the final match at the Ryder Cup. He ended the year by taking down Woods at his own tournament in California. It was tough to back up a year like that.It feels like a disappointment, like a certain young American whos having the same issue, McDowell said, smiling because it was clear he was speaking about Spieth. Its the same way when you shoot 62. Its very hard to come out on the golf course and back up a 62. Thats the micro version. The macro version is coming off a year like that trying to replicate it. Obviously, theres a lot of traps.Are the expectatioons too high? Is the scrutiny too much?The kid is not having a bad year, McDowell said.dddddddddddd But hes in a different stratosphere now. Hes in the Tiger stratosphere, where every shot he hits is going to be questioned, every move he makes is going to be questioned. Its something he has to get used to.And theres another sobering reality that Spieth will have to consider: History suggests he might never have another season like last year.Spieth didnt just win two majors. He came as close as anyone to being the first to capture the calendar Grand Slam. He missed the British Open playoff by one shot and was runner-up to Jason Day in the PGA Championship.Nicklaus had that chance one time in 1972, finishing one shot behind at the British Open. Palmer created the modern Grand Slam in 1960 when he won the Masters and U.S. Open. He never got shot the rest of his career. Woods lone opportunity ended in the rain and wind of Muirfield in 2002.There are aspirations and goals and beliefs and knowledge that you can achieve such incredible things that Jordan did, Adam Scott said. But then theres reality balanced in there. History shows it doesnt repeat. One guy (Woods) repeated it a few times. So whats successful after that is what Jordan or any player having that kind of year will have to figure out. I dont know the answer.Spieth doesnt believe that last year was as good as it will get, nor should he. He doesnt turn 23 until Wednesday. His career is just getting started, and the last thing any young player wants to hear is that his best -- results, not necessarily performance -- is behind him.If thats a valley, Spieth said of his season to date, then thats going to be a lot of fun when we get back up to a peak.Then again, he alluded to how special last year was even before the U.S. Open.One swing on the 12th tee at Augusta National cost Spieth another green jacket, though he was able to step back and see the bigger picture. It was his fifth straight major that he had a serious chance to win.Weve been spoiled the last five of them, he said in June. We recognize thats not necessarily normal to have a chance of that many in a row. But why do whats normal? ' ' '
