    Mike Pettine not returning to Jets

    During his Tuesday morning press conference, Jets coach Rex Ryan made one thing clear: defensive coordinator Mike Pettine won't be back.


    I wonder why he isn't returning. Is it because of the defense's performance or because he wants out? Based on this, I think that there's a good chance he is our DC by tomorrow. Thoughts?

    The Jets offered him a contract extension before the season ended & he refused to sign it.

      i think he knows the jets w/ rex ryan are a sinking ship, and wants to leave on his own terms, not when the staff gets fired next season, which would make finding a new job more dificult

        He's probably just tired of the circus and all the egos.

        The bills official site is reporting that he's interviewing with Marrone today. I bet he ends up getting the job.

          Yeah, he knows that the Jets are a sinking ship. And he'll definitely be offered the job. Hopefully he takes it. And hopefully Pete Carmichael takes the OC job. That would have the makings of a killer staff.

                In Rex's PC today, he said he wishes him the best as long as he doesn't join the Bills. Rex doesn't want him in the AFC East.

                  Even more reason for Pettine to join the Bills.

                    I did some reading on him yesterday and saw nothing but positives in his resume. Sounds like a good hire, if it happens.

                    Attacking, blitzing D scheme that can run a 4-3 or 3-4. We have 4-3 players (DL depth, lacking LB's) so I'm sure that stays. Need a couple LB's in the draft, without question.

                    One advantage to hiring a HC quickly...quality asst. coaches can be found and Marrone is moving quickly.

                      He's honestly probably the best case scenario outside of Dick LeBeau.

                          He surely knows how to beat Mark Sanchez. Oh wait...
                          "'Clean up your room.', 'Stand up straight.', 'Pick up your feet.', 'Take it like a man.', 'Be nice to your sister.', 'Don't mix beer and wine, ever.'. Oh yeah, 'Don't drive on the railroad track.'"

                            I was just listening to that press conference. I would be so fed up with Rex right now if I were a Jets fan, all that guy does is talk. As a Bills fan, I love him...because all he does is talk.

                              some jets fans believe rex is themind behind the defense and that MP is just holding a title.

                              we can never know these things without interviewing these people ourselves. but the jets have had some great defenses. hopefully he got it and is a good strategic mind.
