ECURB Posted January 5, 2007 Share Posted January 5, 2007 From: http://proxy.espn.go.com/nfl/features/take2?gameId=270107017 Take 2: Jets vs. Patriots By Scouts, Inc. New York at New England Matchups QB RB WR OL DL LB DB ST Coach Overall Earlier this week, our scouts filed their advance scouting report on this week's matchup between the Jets and Patriots. Now they're back with a second look. One of the biggest aspects that will be talked about prior to this game will be the chilly relationship between New England Patriots head coach Bill Belichick and New York Jets head coach Eric Mangini, a former Patriots assistant coach. Belichick did not want Mangini to leave for the Jets, but Mangini went there and proved him wrong by winning in the first year. After the second meeting, a Jets' win, Belichick barely even shook Mangini's hand. Both of these coaches are extremely smart and have the respect of their teams. Belichick is a coach who stays the course. He has won three Super Bowl titles doing what he does and is not going to get away from that game plan. Mangini is a bit more of a risk taker, so he likely will have a few little tricks up his sleeve this week. Belichick is the best coach in the NFL. He is the best in-game coach in the NFL. As good as Mangini has been, Belichick is the best in the business and that will pay dividends for the Patriots down the stretch in a tight ball game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
