    They have to be available and obviously would want to actually coach this franchise.

    offensive innovater . kyle shanahan. he finally got matt ryan untracked in atlanta.
    rg3 was pretty good in washington under him also. so was jay cutler in denver.

    easier to find a decent defensive coordinator than offensive one, in my opinion.

    I remember a time when a New York head coaching job in any sport was something people would kill for. I guess those days are gone now. Hard to say right now but if any marginally successful HC were to become available, I would like to think Woody gets the hell outta the way and lets Mac make the hire. I would like an offensively minded HC for a change though.

    When people say they're going to stop being Jets fans, I can't relate. As if it's a matter of choice? I don't understand.

    But if Coughlin or Patricia becomes head coach of the Jets... well... I don't know what to say. Maybe I'll just drop dead on the spot and save myself the trouble of revoking my fandom.

    Honestly, I would rather lose with mediocre newbies than crawl to guys who have already made their legacy with the Giants and Patriots. For the love of God, let me at least have the dignity of losing with coaches I don't already despise.

    I don't want a retread coach. Period. I DEFINITELY don't want a coach who has already won a ring. When my coach wins a ring, I want him to be MY coach. I want him to be a Jet, period. I don't want my coach going to the Hall of Fame wearing someone else's cap. Have a little dignity. Jesus.

    I kind of like Jim Schwartz. He had a great defense with the Lions and when he left it sucked. He had a great defense with the Bills and when he left it sucked. He took over an awful defense in Philly and it's really good now.

    If we're going to go offense, I like Kyle Shanahan.

    I appreciate you offering suggestions and contributing to the discussion. You don't have to agree, but you get what I'm saying.

    Coughlin has a legacy. Patricia has two rings, including one as a coordinator.

    Plus, come on, we already tried this with Mangini. If we try it again with Patricia, we might as well just start begging on Boston street corners. The whole world will be laughing at us.

    Imagine the press conference for the next DC at New England: "And now, introducing the next world champion defensive coordinator, and future Jets head coach..."

    Out of the box/college:

    Tom Herman, Coach of Houston
    Kevin Sumlin, Coach of Texas A&M

    I like McDaniels though from New England...thought he got a raw deal in Denver (some of his own doing) and will do very well next time around

    If Harbough comes then it's a Woody decision and Mac is gone as well. He'd want complete control

    Ben McAdoo. Because if Woody fires his coach after one losing season (assuming we actually have a losing season) then I might as well spare myself the misery and root for the Giants. Speaking of which, remember how Giants fans were screaming for Mara to fire Coughlin (and Parcells back when Parcells first started coaching)? And how Pats fans wanted to fire Belichick right before Brady took the QB job? But Mara and Kraft had the sense not to?

    I don't think Bowles would or should be fired as of now but I don't think record should be the only reason either way

    It should simply be...do you want Bowles to lead this franchise or is there somewhere out there that can do a better job? That's it
