I think the priority is Harbaugh. Bring him in, make Idzik or who ever he wants as GM report to him. Then give him the go ahead to do WHAT EVER he needs to go get a QB with REAL potential on this roster. Including trading anyone on the current roster and any and every pick in the next two drafts to get Mariota. That said, I think Harbaugh is destined for Oakland. So I turn my attention to the following: Dan Mullen - Miss ST. Part of the "New Hampshire Mafia" with Chip Kelly. The fact that Miss St has been competitive, let alone one of the best teams in the country since he got there, tells me everything I need to know. If he isn't interested, then I interview these guys: Quinn DC Sea Shanahan OC Cle Bowles DC AZ Toub ST KC Hue Jackson OC Cin Pep Hamilton OC Ind And Bevell OC Sea. During the interview, the Defensive guys are going to have to outline their vision of an offense that will be able to compete in today's NFL. If they don't have specific coordinators or systems in mind, then pass. Two sleepers that are probably to young for the HC job in NY are Carmichael and Clement. No one ever mentions Bob Sutton. I've got a funny feeling that if he ever gets the opportunity, he will be a heck of a HC. He has the right mix of smarts, flexibility, and organization to make it work. If you've read Collision Low Crossers, it was apparent he was far more than a position coach with the Jets.

I am intrigued by Quinn, I would prefer and offensive minded coach especially if we drafted a QB early. I also like Bill Lazor Miami OC would like to see him get an interview. I doubt Harbaugh would come to NY.

The Wall Street Journal today suggests Joe Moglia, the coach of Costal Carolina who used to be CEO at TD Ameritrade: online.wsj.com/articles/its-time-for-jets-to-look-outside-the-box-1416938760Personally, I think it would be hilarious if Woody hired this guy -- a former exec with no coaching experience in the NFL or even in a Division I-A school. That would be a huge fuck you to all of us morons. Then he would take our PSL money, sell the team, and make for the Cayman Islands. Love when the WSJ tries to stick its nose into sports. CEO of a financial company, that is so them.

Should be a good year to hire a HC since there will not likely be many vacancies. Other than Chicago I can not really think of a team likely to fire it's HC, and the jets job may be preferable to that tire fire in Chicago.

That's a fair point, though I can see the following teams firing/letting go of their head coaches: Oakland (I doubt Sparano will become their next head coach) Giants Falcons Miami (if they have a collapse like last year) San Fran (if they miss the playoffs)

I think Tommy has outlived his lifespan there and will 'retire' like Kilbride did

I don't think coughlin is retiring and the Giants can't fire him. Rex is the favorite for the falcons job if Smith is fired. Miami is headed in the right direction -- even if they falter in the stretch run, Phlbin will get credit for the very good job he has done. I don't think SF fires Harbaugh for missing the playoffs. That is a very tough division and they have had a ton of injuries and suspensions. IMO the number of HC openings will be 3. Jets, Bears, Raiders.

Harbaugh is as good as gone, probably to Oakland or the Bears, and San Fran will go with Tomsula, so in reality, if Rex does get a crack at Atlanta or Chicago(which neither might be open to begin with), it really could be just the Jets.

The question is who should be doing the looking.
I think he goes with a retread, unless he can get a Top college HC, Shaw, Malzone, Sumlin. My guess is one of Hue Jackson, Mike Sherman, Pat Shurmur. Offensive guys that worked with a young qb.
I think it is Hue Jackson and he brings in Jason Campbell to hold the fort while a qb is found. Campbell followed Jacskon to Cinci and I think he will follow him to NY.

He didn't build that team or instill the toughness. They've been progressively getting less tough the longer Singletary been gone. And I'm not even remotely impressed with Kappernick. When did the 49ers ever play with the same kind of intensity and dominance on defense under Singletary that they've played with under Harbaugh? That San Fran defense never finished better than 13th in the league during Singletary's tenure. They've never finished outside the Top 5 under Harbaugh. The Niners were a combined 18-22 under Singletary. They're a combined 43-15-1 under Harbaugh. Not to mention that Harbaugh totally resurrected Alex Smith's career and now has a former 2nd round pick in Kaepernick playing like a Top 15 QB. He's shown that he knows how to adapt to his personnel and is great at working with young QB's. I'd take him in a heartbeat. Don't care if he acts like a jackass. Harbaugh is hardass, not a particularly nice human... just like most good coaches are. Parcells, Belidick come to mind obsessive, hyper competitive, detail orientated pricks. Pete Carroll is the one anomaly that comes to mind. We have had a relaxed six years with a players coach. It's time for the pendulum to swing the otherway for a while. If he becomes available, he is the obvious choice with a track record. He will but heads with Idzik, and that's what you want, someone to scream bloody murder and fight for what he believes in.
