Re: Pettine watch... I want him back as DC
Pettine ain't coming back. Not a snowball's chance in hell.
His whole thing was to get out of Rex's rather large shadow...why he left the Jets in the first place, I think.
Let's talk about Cowher and Gruden becoming the Bills Head Coach next year instead. I think there is a greater chance of that happening than Pettine becoming the Bills d-coordinator again.
I'm not completely satisfied with Thurman right now though, you could say.

Re: Pettine watch... I want him back as DC
Originally posted by Albany,n.y. View PostWhen Pettine left the Jets, it was to enhance his chances of getting a head coaching job. That won't be an issue for him in 2016, so a return to the Bills is not as far-fetched as you think it is.
To me, Pettine coming back to Rex would be largely perceived as the man running back to daddy...with his tail between his legs admitting permanent defeat. Kinda like living in his parent's basement, if you will.
He wanted to make his own name, and it's not out of the question that he gets another chance at Head Coach later. Everyone knows what a mess that Browns team is.
I'd eat my hat if Pettine even considers the option IF he's fired. And IF the offer is there, which it won't be.

Re: Pettine watch... I want him back as DC
So you want a guy back who's spearheading the Defense of a team that's 29th overall in points allowed, 28th in yards allowed, 19th in pass yards allowed and dead last against the run?
May I ask, why?

Originally posted by Albany,n.y. View PostI recall another ex-Browns coach who went back to his daddy after Cleveland and it worked out pretty good for him.
Tell me the whole story...I already know it, but tell me anyway.

Re: Pettine watch... I want him back as DC
Belichick began his coaching career in 1975; by 1985 he was the defensive coordinator for New York Giants head coach Bill Parcells. Parcells and Belichick won two Super Bowls together (XXI and XXV) before Belichick left to become the head coach in Cleveland in 1991. He remained in Cleveland for five seasons and was fired following the team's 1995 season. Belichick then rejoined Parcells, first in New England and later with the New York Jets.
