    GREAT HIRE.... defensive coordinator for the Pats been under Belichick for 11 years this is a good good move. i'm pretty happy about this what does everyone else think about this move? i know i'm pumped, he beat out Tice for the job supposively they knew they were offering Mangini the job but apparently Tice had such a good interview that they almost reconsidered.

    I think he got hired cuz of belichek, but i dont think it was good hire. He just doesnt have enough experience. Look forward to a lot of losing seasons

    I like what mangini has done with the pats but I'm not sure he was ready to be a head coach either...he has barely 1 season of experience on the offensive side of the ball and alot of people say he was part of the reason we struggled on defense when Harrison went down..he was afraid to let the front seven go and belichick supposedly got aggrivated and gave him the nudge to do so which also turned our defense around. Do I think he is a bad coach...not at all and he has been able to work well when it comes to developing D-backs but I just don't believe he is ready to run the show.

    This seems like a situation where he will struggle, get fired, go be a coordinator, do a good job, get 2nd chance at head coaching job, and then be successful

    yea the articles i've seen about him i kinda lost my confidence about his hire, i mean only one year as a head coordinator i dont think that is enough experience coaching. hes been with belichick 11 years which is a big plus but like others said i'm not sure hes ready to run a team. maybe this could turn out to be great or awful

    haha i know i'm posting a lot on this thread but after reading a lot of articles and researching this hire i'm not too high on it anymore....


    Former Vikings coach Mike Tice was the runner-up, so to speak, to Eric Mangini to coach the Jets. But Tice wowed Jets officials in the presentation he made Monday. Tice brought in a detailed plan of turning New York around, and the suggestions were interesting enough that the team kept copies. Mangini had the edge, though, because owner Woody Johnson has been enamored with Bill Belichick disciples. Plus, Mangini, who spent this season as the Patriots' defensive coordinator, is a close friend of Jets assistant general manager Mike Tannenbaum. - John Clayton

    it seems to me that the Jets brass only took Mangini on the terms that he has been under Belichick and was the defensive coordinator for the Patriots. BUT the Patriots werent great on defense this year, the only year he was coordinator and he has only been a coordinator for one year. Tice however was prepared and ready and was set on turning around the Jets. What about Mangini i havent heard about his spectacular interviews, is it possible that Tice had a much better interview yet they took Mangini anyway?? Would Tice have been the better choice? i'm starting to think that. i think the Jets acted too quickly and were set on this guy too fast. I dont really know what to think of him, how to evaluate him. Tice did his research and was overly prepared and was ready for the job. What was Mangini? i'm nervous...

    ehhh isn't he only like 34.. intresting hire. I would of voted for Sherman though but hey Mangini is a Belichick guy. I wonder who'll he'll get for his offensive coordinator. Maybe Tice if he doesn't get a job.

    that would actually make a lot of sense if Tice comes in with a huge plan they could probably work together and make this a good situation, doubt it will happen though

    I think this was a really good hire. Mangini is familar with Ty Law, and can help him out a lot. The defense is good, but that offense is struggling. I think he needs to think about RB in the draft because Martin is getting older. Then i think OL, then backup QB.

    And if he ends up going back to work with Belichick somewhere else..wouldn't that be weird since it is pretty much what belichick did...though he was alot more prepared to take over a team when he got the browns gig than Mangini is.

    Ty Law will be gone...he is due a ridiculous amount of money and the Jets are already in cap trouble...they have alot of work to do on offense and that is where Mangini has NO experience at all..and they need more than a backup QB because pennington is borderline finished after two major shoulder injuries..they need a QB for the future and better hope Leinhart or Young are there at 4.

    I think Chad Pennington can come back from injury and they are much need at RB because Martin is gonna retire soon. There defense is already good so they just need to improve a lot on offense to help him out.

    Pats hit it on the money Panthers, Ty Law is gone, Jets are in cap hell. And Mangini doesnt have a lot of experience on offense. BUt he did call all the plays on defense for the Patriots last year.

    I dont think that Pennington can come back and be a really good qb anymore. Because two shoulder surguries on the same shoulder is a lot for a guy with a week arm in the first place. Martin is looking to stay with the Jets and i think he reliezes that hes not gonna be a full time RB anymore but he'll be a good back up hes not gonna retire too soon. Your right that they have a good defense though.

    Another double post:

    but i've been listening to the Mangini press conference, been listening to ESPN NY radio and i've been listening to peoples opinions on the radio. and this will be my final opinion on Mangini for now. Personally i'm excited to see a new face on the sideline a new face for the franchise. Sure he may be inexperienced but you know what i like about it. Its a risk. And the Jets arent known as a risky team or a risky offense, they could have easily gone with Tice or Sherman because they know what they are about. But they arent sure what Mangini is about. You know what you never know what any coach is gonna do even if hes been on a team before. Mangini also has a HUGE upside and its good for this team. Hes a Belichick and Parcells type of guy and thats good too. Hes been in NY. It makes a lot of sense. he could be a bust but you know what i'm ok with that risk. You know what Bill Cowher was about the same age when he started coaching the Steelers. Look where he is know. Its a risk reward type of thing and i'm ok with that i'm just excited to move forward and i'm already ready for the draft and FA and the season to start. lol

    I disagree. The Jets will either restructure Ty Law's contract or keep him. I don't think he had a one hit wonder with them. He did have 10 INT's this season.

    I believe that Ty Law will stay with the Jets. Mangini didnt want him to go from New England, and he will find a way to keep his shut down corner

    they might want to keep him but unfortunatly the Jets are in cap hell. and i'm not overexaggerating they have one of the worst situations in the league, its gonna be almost impossible to sign him and the season that Law had he will probably get more money than the Jets can give him elsewhere. The last time he was in the lockerroom he collected keepsakes from his teamates to remember the Jets. not lookin good with that

    another thing about Mangini, what some people dont know is that Herman Edwards had almost the same experience has Mangini has had so far except hes older. i'm pretty confident Mangini will do a decent job

    It will also be interesting to see what they do with Abraham..I'm not sure he will take being "franchised" again...they could be losing two solid players on Defense in abraham and Law. Mangini may do well..but its going to take a few years IMO.

    On a side note don't be surprised if you see Ty Law back as a patriot to finish his career...thats been floated around since the last few weeks of the regular season.
