How can anyone be a Mangini fan yet? He’s new and trying to do something that is really a giangantic feat. we hired this guy to come in and reconstruct the team, then when he’s still in the demolitiion phase we jump all over him for not winning? I don’t claim to know if he’s the answer any more than if Quinn is, but all the people screaming like little girls at this point are really rediculous in my eye. Including those two who want to brown out, so to speak. Give the guy a chance. Give Quinn a chance. don’t get caught up in the media; it is there cause to create controversy whenever they can. If he’s not the guy, fine. fire him. firing Koki was a good move because it made sense. mangini obviously needs an offensive coord. and a good one. but with all the politics and self serving causes going on in the league and media, it is all the more important to reject all that and try to stay focused on what is happening. and it ain’t gonna happen overnight, or one year, or two years. His drafts were good, solid drafts. the receivers will pan out. the center is a great one. he maybe could have gotten mathews and the other guy, but maybe they don’t fit what he is doing. patience. screaming and jumping ship only divides us further and shows weakness and vulnerability to opposition.

If you like Mangini I guess thats your right. He has done nothing here just as he did nothing for the Jets. They fired his butt. What gives any of you Mangini fans any indication that he is going to do better? Has he so far?

I think you’re taking issue with what is just his way of doing business. In other words, this guy is of the Belechik tree (sp) and is doing this on purpose. I saw Teddy Bruski yesterday come out and defend him and his abilities. I take that as a positive. I think if we get the org above him straightened out and get him an offensive coord/coach, we’ll be okay. He might be a jerk, but I still think he could be a good coach.

There is alot I have to say, but at this point I can not comment any further. And I’ll just leave it at that.

Is it just me, or is this guy just mind-numbing? I’ve read a fair number of his statements and press conferences — and I always get an unsatisfied feeling. It’s like I’m talking to a parent who is purposely avoiding answering a question or addressing an issue while pretending to give a fat hairy rat’s a** about what you think. This doesn’t feel real at all. Something’s not right . . . but I can’t seem to pinpoint just what it is, really.
