Big talk, crowd, weather — nothing bothers these Jets

For Rex Ryan and his swaggerlicious Jets, it isn’t if they beat the Bengals Saturday in Cincinnati, it’s when they beat the Bengals. It isn’t even if they win a Super Bowl, it’s when they win the Super Bowl.

Ryan,and some of his players yesterday detailed for The Post why they will beat the Bengals and begin their shock-the-world march on the Road to Miami.

“We’re gonna play like Jets,” Ryan said.

You believe you can take it all the way?

“Absolutely,” Ryan said.

Why?

“Because I’ve been there. I’ve been down this road before, and I know what it takes to win. You look at the history that my family has — we’ve won a few Super Bowls. You’ve gotta be playing well at the end of the season . . . you gotta be playing great defense, you gotta run the ball, and I think we do all those things.”

If Ryan were a betting man, he’d bet the house on the Jets’ 40-1 odds — longest odds in the field — to win the Super Bowl.

But can he win it all with a rookie quarterback?

“Sure,” Ryan said, ” ’cause he’s our quarterback, and he’s gonna play efficiently.”

JETS SHOULD THANK BENGALS’ BENSON

Jets tight end Dustin Keller isn’t worried about the frigid Cincinnati weather.

“We’re gonna be very physical and we’re built more for this type of weather,” Keller said.

Safety Kerry Rhodes isn’t worried about the hostile Cincinnati crowd.

“We’re gonna win ’cause we got to,” he said. “That’s the only reason — ’cause we got to.”

More than anything, more than Thomas Jones and Shonn Greene running to daylight, it is Ryan’s voracious defense that gives the Jets their raging machismo, and it is a perceived lack of respect that fuels the fire within their ranks.

The music blaring over the practice field yesterday? “We will, we will rock you . . .”
