GG Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 The biggest reason that Mangini may look good as a HC is that he played two games against Jauron. I still think that accepting a 3rd down penalty back in Nov was a huge mistake and the only reason that no one talks about it is because Edwards through the INT to Elam. But you cannot coach to a potential INT to save bad decisions. Just like Jauron is too cautious, Mangini is too cavlaier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Anderson's Lunch Pail Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 Do you think Mangini has any regrets over giving his newborn son the middle name Brett after Favre? Uncomfortable. That's almost as bad as giving a coach a three-year contract extension when his record was 5-1, only to see him finish 2-8. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mannc Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 Agreed. Yesterday's game is a perfect example, Favre just killed the Jets. He should be charged with murdering Mangini's career. I don't know if Mangini will be the best available option, but he's light years better than Jauron. Absolutely agree. But I think Ralph is going to let DJ twist in the wind a while and see who's available. If he doesn't think there is a better option, DJ will return--hard as that is for us to swallow. I just don't think Mangini is Ralph's type of hire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pneumonic Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 Mangini is a fraud and a snitch and will be lucky to be coaching Pop Warner ball in the future. Don't want him even as bad as Jauron is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanInSouthBuffalo Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 I listened to the Jets press conference and a reporter asked Jets GM Mike Tannenbaum, and I am paraphrasing, "You are the one that signed Favre and that was a disaster, why is Eric Mangini the scapegoat?" The NY media, gotta love em'! Having said that I wouldn't touch Mangini. I would be interested in Jets OC Brian Schottenheimer in some capacity though. Not sure he's ready to be a HC yet.

Very true, that bonehead move would go down in the "Morninwhig taking the wind in OT @Chicago" category if Elam doesn't make that play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
