Just for fun - If you HAD to hire a former Jets HC to come back who would you take?

[jetstream23]

None are currently NFL head coaches right now by the way.

Walt Michaels over any of them - and he's dead. 

[PS17]

Mangini is the only answer.

lol

I only included relatively recent guys dating back to the early 2000's.  No Al Groh, no Parcells or Belichick on this list.  No Weeb Ewbank either.

[Jetsfan4life90]

Magini.

I love how Mangini also has all the votes so far, lol.

Mangini was the best coach. He wore out his welcome with his mini-Belichick style, but he was a good football coach.

I picked Herm just solely on entertainment value.

I want the names and addresses of Rex voters.

Want me to post it or send it PM along with cab fare.

No Pete Carroll? My choice, followed by Mangini, then Herm.

Hasn't coached since 2015 when he was the Defensive Coordinator for the 49ers and gave up a division-most 387 points against.  It seems like his ship has sailed.

I see that SAR has now voted...

Well if you're going back that far, why not Belichick?

[ScarletKnight89]

Mangini built the best team. I personally thought Herm was a good program builder. 

So either Mangini or Herm.

No easy choices my friend.  I didn't include Parcells or our 1-day HC Bill Belichick either.

Because he'd get 99% of the votes (except for SAR voting for Gase).... and what fun is that?

Rex

The last several years make Rex look like Vince Lombardi

Rex Ryan and I wouldn’t think twice

Mangini. I think he's a smart guy who has learned from his mistakes and did a lot of things right.

You're right. He's too mobile in that GIF.

Not that I’d hire him again but he built the team that Rex took to the AFC Championship. If Favre’s arm didn’t fall off in 2008, our last decade might have played out pretty differently. 

[UntouchableCrew]

Also, it's CRAZY that Adam Gase has more votes than Todd Bowles.

I mean, look at the other guys on the list.

I don't think winning this poll is a huge endorsement of the guy.

[slimjasi]

Mangini - because he is the one coach you could argue could have won here if he got more time. We fired him after two winning seasons in three years and a 9-7 season (the collapse from 8-3 to 9-7 was decisive). 

Having said that, the correct answer is NONE

Rex without question. Back to back AFCC. No other coach in my lifetime has had more success with the Jets.
 

You old dinosaurs can feel free to bring up some legend from yesteryear.
