    Wouldn't it make more sense to hire the Lions OC instead?

    This might be the new ERA of ex-players coming back to coach their old teams. Not saying this is bad, but the honeymoon period will be pretty short if he doesn't show improvement fairly quickly. Perhaps a one year grace period. A lot is gonna depend on how he puts his staff together and if he'll get a GM that will work with him or not.

    I remember him well as a player. He was real good.

    Also I remember him not having much love for the Jets after he left here.

    I remember something about him retiring as a Texan instead of a Jet.

    So I'm not sold this is going to happen.

    Offense is the problem the lest bazzilion years and the defense is solid, so what do you do? Hire a denfensive minded head coach so Jetsy. Al Groh, Herman Edwards, Rex Ryan, Robert Saleh , Todd Bowles , Robert Saleh, Jeff Ulbrich have all been mediocre here, lets keep the pipeline going, hire a defensive minded coach to coach this dysfunctional offense, and develop our next Qb just brilliant Woody love it! Keep hiring defensive coordinators with no coaching experiences because they impress you in a job interview because it has worked out oh so well. Rinse and repeat, rinse and repeat maybe the 10th time well get it right. If this is true Why even hire Tennabaum and the rest of the bums to get you a coach because this seems like a straight Woody hire.

    This isn't madden where you can do whatever you want. It takes 2 to tango.

    I'm so tired of seeing people complain about this.

    Sent from my genius mind.

    I would prefer an offensive or experienced head coach, but I also was open to Glenn. Jets need a culture change more than anything.

    Neither did Vrabel, it's not really the Jets its the Woody, little Brick and AR circus they want no part of, if they only had to pick based on rosters they would definately want the job.

    We don't even have a GM yet. Yes, Glenn seems likely based on Woody's history. But I am hoping for a miracle: that we get Halaby and he changes the course of this franchise, including HC selection.

    I think we'll see the GM first. The a HC who ties in with the GM/s philosophy on building the team. They both should be on the same page.

    Highly doubt it, you know Woody does things half assed and backwards, the sooner the Jets get Aaron Glenn and make backpage headlines and Aaron Glenn in and the ex Jet starts preaching the Jets gospel the sooner Woody can start selling tickets for next year.

    if we are looking for a previous HC that’s offensive minded with enough on the ball who would that be. Slim pickings. So it’s either a hot OC or experienced HC. I lean towards the later, since leadership and discipline is key. I still believe Steve Spagnuolo is a serious candidate, albeit a Defensive coach.

    That's all it's ever about. There's not a "better" story out there than the Jets bringing back one of their own, who played during some good times for the franchise, to try to fix it.

    Glenn seems like he’d be a good hire and he has connections to Sean Payton after coaching under him for a couple years. I hope he poaches Pete Carmichael to be OC who is heavily credited to be a quarterback developer with Payton.

    Another positive about Glenn is I’d think he follows Campbell’s model in loading his coaching staff with former players.

    He retired as a Texan because was born raised in Houston. That’s all.
