    I dont think they should have fired him. BUT -- I give them credit for making the decision now.

    The issue I have is that there are a lot worse coaches out there. Look at the facts. Jets were 4-12 last year. And -- 9 wins this year -- with NO QB the last month. I know that in "sports talk" land -- you cant blame one play, one call, one player -- but I CAN. Favre killed this team single handedly. He was awful. I know, coaching didnt help, defense didnt help but you brought in ONE GUY to carry you and he stunk. Remember that before he was brought in -- 9 wins would have been a miracle. If they would have gotten ANYTHING from that position we would have been talking about playoffs.

    I recall back when they fired Carroll -- I said ok -- he probably didnt deserve it but ok and they hired Kotite. I sat at the wheel of my car in disbelief. (I was living in Philly so I knew he was a dolt -- but a nice guy apparently).

    There are many many bad names they can go with Tice, Romeo, Billick, Fassell.
    I would include M. Schottenheimer too -- but its not fair -- but dont bring him here anyway.
    Reeves is too old -- but very underappreciated in my opinion.

    Parcells...who has an out from his contract the minute the team is sold in early January. He can be GM if he doesn't want to coach. At least HE will hire a coach who can coach. He has interest.

    We don't need a power struggle here, that's why we don't have Belichick now.

    It's amazing that if you blame the season on Favre 90% of the fan base think you are insane. The guy was flat out horrible and ruined the season. Now he got our coach fired. Mangini deserves blame, but I want to know what coach in the nfl survives qb play like that?

    Good call, Farve was a disaster.

    Yeah, where's Favrenstein now with his criticisms? Don't ever question my knowledge of this team or this game again.

    Unless BP is coahcing I don't want him hear. The last time he picked a coahc for us he picked Al groh. We have a good GM, we had a good, young Hc and now we better get Cowher.
