onefellswoop7 Posted January 8, 2009 Report Share Posted January 8, 2009 From Rotoworld.com Brett Favre says he will not decide whether to retire for "several weeks." He sure sounds ready to retire. "I have the ability to turn it off just like that," he said. "I don't feel I have anything else to prove. It's hard for me, but I have to say I gave out down the stretch (in 2008). I think it would just be better for me to just thank the Jets, and I sincerely mean that. It was well worth what I invested. But I'm going to just quietly step away if that's what happens." Favre indicated that he may be ready to decide his future in a month. Link This is not to try and prove our new coach to be great (or the opposite). This is to point out a simple fact. If the Jets make the playoffs and compete...Mangini is still in NY. Count the number of INTs and look at the poor games by Favre (games they lost). He played like he looked, rough. Again, this is only one factor. I just find it interesting that, say the Jets win one more game and enter the playoffs. Mangini most likely stays. Nothing earth shattering here. But sometimes its good to just look at things from both angles. That team had about 7 pro bowlers this year so it's not like Mangini got the boot from the Lions or something. Thoughts?

Guest ATENEARS Posted January 8, 2009 Report Share Posted January 8, 2009 What do you think might have happened if RAC won one more game here last season and made the playoffs? Do you think this season so still enough to get canned over? I guess I do, but some may say that it was afluke and give ole RAC another year based on that lone playoff appearance. It's a game of inches, fer sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

onefellswoop7 Posted January 8, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 8, 2009 Talent doesn't = wins. The Browns have some good talent (could use more...sure). However, the talent brought in A) Didn't stay healthy and wasn't coached very well. Mangini is in a pretty decent spot coming in. RAC had NOTHING...like Mangini did when he arrived in NY. This job allows him to work with a roster that more or less needs adjusted...not blown up and redone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first thing that needs to be done is to focus on how we can actually have a WINNING record in the AFC North, and a WINNING record at home. Note to Mangini- Pitt & Balt cannot be beaten by a running game, their defenses are pretty damn good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
