Seems like a solid hire, but do they have a GM in place yet?

I don't think so, weren't they the ones going after Pioli?

Dan pobably advised it was not necessary to wait

I still can't believe he named his newborn son after Favre (well, his middle name anyway). It seemed convenient mid-season when Favre looked good and the Jets were 8-3. What's he going to tell him when he gets older? I named you after a selfish old QB who only came to my team to spite the Packers, threw 22INTs during the season in which you were born, totally wet the bed down the stretch, and his lousy play may have cost your dad his first head coaching job... ooops.

Good luck in Cleveland, Cangini.

Is this really a radical improvement over Crennel?

By the way, anyone else heard the rumor that Crennel might actually be his defensive coordinator

I had heard that Crennel was open to the idea of staying on as a DC. Actually, I read his statement to that effect but don't know where.

If Crennel stays with Mangini, seems to me Crennel cuts all ties with Belicheck and his club of coaches. I don't imagine Bill is the most forgiving of men.

That will go a long way towards providing hope for the hire a new coach and make Zorn OC crowd. Though I don't know why anyone here would be anxious to see Zorn as an OC after this year.

For the same reason, I bet they can cut Pioli off their GM list 'casue he has probably crossed them off his list. I heard they were looking for someone out of Baltimore.

Hmmmm, haven't they had this receipe? Coach from the Belicheck tree and GM from the Baltimore front office??
