Do you happen to have any advice of who I, Mike Maccagnan, should sign or draft?

How do you feel about the forward pass, do you have to look at the film to form an opinion?

- Describe a couple scenarios where you used prior knowledge of your opponent to take advantage of a matchup(s) to get a positive outcome.

- Describe some half time adjustments you've made during games that resulted in either a momentum shift, or increasing your teams lead

- Name some instances where you started a player that wasn't as highly drafted, but outperformed the incumbent

 - What has to happen for you to bench or discipline an underachieving player

 - How do you see the game being played on offense in the next few years

 - Who will be your defensive coordinator and what type of d will they play

Congrats on what is likely your first good post here.

[ZachEY]

Will you call only the good plays that lead to touchdowns and not the bad plays that lead to interceptions?

[Jets0712]

Can you coach both offense and defense? Can you manage and lead chronological adults? Pick one, surprise me, the other question comes second.

In your opinion what is the ideal template for sustained success in today's NFL and how do you think you can help the New York Jets achieve it?

[LIJetsFan]

You will be dealing with 53 young men, approx 1/3 of them highly paid primadonnas.  What are your ideas and methods for making them a TEAM and how will you and your CS enforce your will?

It's Monday, December 31, 2018.  Todd Bowles was fired last night as he got off the plane from New England.  You're now in the interview room as the Jets parade a bunch of young, hotshot Offensive Coordinators, college coaches and NFL re-treads to audition for the Jets Head Coach job.  You get one question to ask.  Go!

“So it says here you’ve been a ‘Quality Control Assistant’ for the Houston Texans for :checks notes: six...months and, oh! you were there as an unpaid intern to boot. Can you describe how being a member of :looks down at one-page Comic Sans fonted resumé: Kappa Tau Sigma helped you get through, uh, Rutgers?”

Depends on your neighborhood.

You are stranded on an island with no resources and no support coming along with an entitled rich person who has no discernible common sense.

As a Canadian on the old NY jet forums i was on I was very puzzled by the whole sauce gravy thing.  ?

Its 4th and 2 on the opponents 45 yard line. 3 minutes to go in the game. You have 3 times outs and trail by 2.

What do you do? Punt and hope your d can hold, or be aggressive and go for it? 

To me the guy who rationalizes going for it is the winner. We have had a conservative, scared, play not to lose CS here for the last 4 years, it is time for an aggressive coach.

Similar situation as what I posted in another thread.

I also mentioned that I would have some nerds compile data on all of the candidates' statistics on 4th downs.

How often they go?  How often they convert? How often they punt? Kick FGs?  Call timeout?  Everything...

I am certain you can learn a ton about a coach just on 4th down choices.  The calling timeouts stat is big for me.  I DESPISE coaches that call timeout on 4th down.  You should already know what you're going to do. Simple concept.   Think ahead situationally.

The Jets need a coach always looking for a reason to go, not one looking for an excuse to punt.

As for the guy that wants to punt?  "Thank you for your time."  (Thinking to myself, "get the hell out of my office!")

Do you support the idea of using our top 5 pick on a safety?

Ah, just a bunch of old guineas (I'm one of 'em) arguing about dumb stuff.   Basically, it depends on where you grew up if you refer to a tomato based pasta topping as sauce or gravy.  Wars have been fought over less.

From the outside looking in, what are the issues you see with the Jets offense, and what is your plan to address those issues?

Very diplomatic. We all know it's sauce. Gravy is the brown stuff you put on turkey.

I've always held that the sauce/gravy conundrum was a misuse of Italian words.  Where my people are from (Northern Italy), we refer to a non-meat tomato sauce as "salsa".  While a meat based one is a "sugo" which might translate to some as a gravy".

I dip chips in salsa.
