“#Todd Bowles doesn\u2019t feel redeemed by post-Jets rise<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

\n

A little over two years ago, the coaching ability of Todd Bowles was questioned, doubted and ridiculed by many people.<\/p>\n

Bowles had just been fired by the Jets after four seasons as the team\u2019s head coach, during which the team did more losing than winning. He went 24-40, including losing records in each of his final three seasons.<\/p>\n

Now, Bowles has answered his critics. He is the Buccaneers defensive coordinator, leading a defense that has beaten Drew Brees and Aaron Rodgers on its way to Super Bowl 2021 to face the Chiefs on Sunday.<\/p>\n

It would be easy for Bowles to say, \u201ctold you so\u201d to those who raked him over the coals here, but that is not Bowles\u2019 style.<\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t feel any redemption,\u201d Bowles said in a phone interview with The Post. \u201cI\u2019m harder on myself than anybody. When you don\u2019t win game<\/a>s, you get the criticism. In this sport, there\u2019s going to be ups and downs. You\u2019ve got to stay the course and stay who you are. You trust your coaching and the people that taught you. I stuck with that, and everything has worked out for me.\u201d<\/p>\n

It also has worked out for the Buccaneers. In his second season in Tampa Bay with his mentor Bruce Arians, Bowles had his defense rolling this season. The Bucs were No. 6 in yards allowed, No. 8 in scoring defense and No. 1 against the run. Bowles has a nice blend of veterans and young players that have been the perfect complement to Tom Brady and the offense. In the playoffs, Bowles has had to match wits with Brees and Rodgers. Now, he gets Patrick Mahomes.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf we win, we have faced the best of the best. It\u2019s one after the other,\u201d Bowles said. \u201cEvery week, it\u2019s a challenge. They\u2019re all great quarterbacks, Hall of Fame quarterbacks. It says a lot about the guys on this team that have just shown up and played every week. We got two. We\u2019re going to try to get the next one.\u201d<\/p>\n

Bowles and the Buccaneers know all too well what the Chiefs offense is capable of. Kansas City beat Tampa Bay, 27-24, on Nov. 29. Mahomes threw for 462 yards and three touchdowns and Tyreek Hill had 13 catches for 269 yards and three touchdowns.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s a nightmare,\u201d Bowles said of preparing for Kansas City. \u201cThey\u2019ve got a lot of talent. They\u2019ve got a lot of speed. We played bad due to the fact that those guys made us look bad. We didn\u2019t play well in that game. They give you problems all the way around for four quarters. We have to be at our best.\u201d<\/p>\n

Bowles, 57, is chasing his third Super Bowl ring. He won one as a player with Washington in 1987 and one as part of the Packers\u2019 personnel department in 1996. He began his coaching career in 1997 and has spent the past 22 seasons in the NFL, hoping to reach the Super Bowl.<\/p>\n

Bowles did not want to talk specifically about his time at the Jets, but said he values the relationships he made while he was coaching the team. Bowles was a beloved figure inside the organization, someone impossible to dislike. There are many people inside the Jets organization pulling for him.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was a learning experience,\u201d Bowles said. \u201cIt made me a better coach coming from New York. I\u2019m close with a lot of people in that building. There are a lot of great people up there.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Jets went 10-6, 5-11, 5-11 and 4-12 in Bowles\u2019 four seasons. He drew a lot of criticism, but there was always a debate about how much blame he deserved and how much went to the front office for not acquiring enough talent for him. Bowles said he never doubted himself.<\/p>\n

\u201cI didn\u2019t. I really didn\u2019t. I knew I was a good coach,\u201d Bowles said. \u201cI\u2019ll look back at that stuff when I retire. I\u2019ll look back and see what everything is. During the journey, you just keep marching forward.\u201d<\/p>\n

During this hiring cycle, Bowles interviewed with the Falcons and Eagles for their head-coaching vacancies. After his time with the Jets, Bowles has said he will be picky about another head-coaching job.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf the opportunity is right, it will come up,\u201d Bowles said. \u201cI just want to be the best coach I can be. I would love to have that opportunity again, but right now I\u2019m very happ<\/a>y going to the Super Bowl as a defensive coordinator.\u201d\n <\/p><\/div>\n
