BroadwayRay Posted January 1, 2019 Share Posted January 1, 2019 This is interesting. I was thinking McCarthy would be Lined up for the Browns job given his history with Dorsey. The Browns might have their sights set on Josh McDaniels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not being required to report to, or held accountable by, that moron is a major PLUS to this job. We've seen it here before. Twice in the last two regimes. The HC on the Jets gets his way on personnel matters. So why wouldn't McCarthy want to come here? It's freaking perfect for him. He gets one of the two most promising young QB prospects in the league (which is why Cleveland is a competitor for his services), he will have almost complete say and freedom from the idiot GM and he knows he will be able to get Chris Johnson to side with him over anything stupid Maccagnan tries to do just as Bowles and Rex did with their assorted GMs. He'll have huge say in the draft just like Rex and Bowles too. Wow. I'm surprised he hasn't landed at the airport yet. This is a dream landing site for him. he might not want to deal with the dick in Cleveland. And we know Baker could become a dick.

Either way, get this sh*t done. Heck, let's just do a quick interview with KC. He's still being paid as a member of the CS. Him fulfilling the required Rooney Rule interview would be the biggest contribution he's made since he got here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree. What sealed the deal for me on her was when she was covering the Sandusky nightmare all those years back. As a true blue Penn Stater you could tell it was just killing her, but she was the consummate pro during the whole thing. That really made an impression on me.

Bienemy probably won't be able to interview for awhile so wouldn't be surprised if this takes a little bit of time See, I dont get this Rooney thing anymore. It was designed to instigate the interviewing of African American coaches. The Jets themselves have hired two African American coaches. There are a lot of African American coaches. Now they are getting fired just like everybody else (3?). If I was Oriental, I would be really raising a ruckus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vader Posted January 1, 2019 Share Posted January 1, 2019 For all the record he has left, McCarthy is an unknown commodity. There’s too little information on his HC experience without a HOF caliber QB. Would be a risky hire with decent chance of hi-fi total disintegration. The Jets, organizationally, and the NY media market are almost diametrically opposite from the Packers way, although McCagnan - a glorified scout - is trying to change that somewhat towards draft and retain. McCarthy’s interest is obviously almost entirely about Sam Darnold. MM saw SD up close just a couple weeks ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

F00tballGuy69 Posted January 1, 2019 Share Posted January 1, 2019 Do what it takes to get him signed. There's 8 jobs open, and a lot of very underwhelming names floating around. Neither Harbaugh is leaving. David Shaw is not leaving. McCarthy is the best candidate that is realistically available. I'll be interested to see who he'd bring in as our DC. I think we need a no-nonsense type to light a fire under the Defense, as we've had many of our top veterans dog throughout the Bowles era (Revis, Tru Johnson, Wilkerson, Richardson, L Williams, etc.). Gregg Williams would be ideal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure this is tongue in cheek, but there is this sentiment on the board. Sean Payton won one SB with the Brees and that was 9 years ago. Most posters here would give their left nut have Payton coach the Jets. Not sure what makes McCarthy different, the guy is a winning coach.

If Favre was well done and Rodgers was medium rare, Darnold is still on the loins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rangers9 Posted January 1, 2019 Share Posted January 1, 2019 Looks like he might be interested even though rumors were he was going to Cleveland. To me we have better ownership than the Browns how many coaches, etc have they been through with that owner. An owner to a HC is a deal breaker. I know hard to believe we have better ownership but in this case it's very true. Like them or or not our coaches lasted a legit number of years the only early firing was Idzik. Pat Shurmur only lasted one year with Cleve. Of course McCarthy could be using the Jets as a bargaining chip to get more money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
