    Brian Daibol is so getting fired after today’s NYG win and Saquans 2000 yards. Him and that trash GM. Daibol would be intriguing as a OC and an upgrade over Bobby.

    It would definitely work. He runs many sets from under center, uses fullbacks. zone scheme. Very adaptable if we're staying with the Kubes offense.

    Haha, there is literally nothing this guy can say that won't amount in copious amounts of blowback. He's just so ****ing bad at all the things you want leaders to be good at.

    It’s possible the Jets will simply want a veteran defensive coordinator if they fill their head coaching role with a young offensive coach, much like the Rams did when they paired Wade Phillips with Sean McVay. Head coaching interviews take on many forms and, sometimes, are not expressly about filling a head coaching vacancy. While current Detroit Lions defensive coordinator Aaron Glenn still has to be considered a very early favorite given his connection with the franchise (he played eight seasons for the team that drafted him in 1994) and owner Woody Johnson’s absolute need to win this press conference, I wouldn’t discount a name such as Houston Texans offensive coordinator Bobby Slowik. Slowik is consistently praised by the Shanahan family, which, as my colleague Albert Breer reported upon the firing of Robert Saleh, was one of the main reasons Johnson also took a liking to eventual interim head coach Jeff Ulbrich. Another name to watch if the tea leaves do indeed tell us that the Jets are hoping for a veteran defensive presence and a younger offensive head coach is Kliff Kingsbury (even though Kingsbury has held the job before he’s still just 45). Kingsbury, the former Arizona Cardinals and Texas Tech head coach, wowed the Johnson family during his interview process when he ultimately decided to take the job in Arizona. Kingsbury, though, relied heavily on stalwarts such as Vance Joseph and Jeff Rodgers to help him create a pro-ready operation. Tampa Bay Buccaneers OC Liam Cohen and Buffalo Bills OC Joe Brady are also worth placing in that category. —Conor Orr

    If the Jets hire Slowik I would be ecstatic, best thing to happen ever. We get better and the Jets are a guaranteed non-threat in the AFC for the foreseeable future.

    Disagree... Slowick could get better (prolly will).... It just doesn't fit our timeline. We need him to be GREAT RN.... not 2-3 years

    If the NYJ want to go offense then Joe Brady should be the hire, although if I had to bet he's going to be hired by the Saints.

    Defense Glenn should be the hire.

    ▪“A year ago, Houston offensive coordinator Bobby Slowik was one of the buzzier coaching names. He's not likely to draw quite as much interest this time around after a disappointing second season with the Texans, but don't be shocked if he gets a few interview requests. The offensive coordinator pool of head coach candidates isn't as deep this year as it has been recently, and teams are still looking to pick the brains of people with ideas for how to score more points. Buffalo's Joe Brady is also someone teams might be calling for interviews.”

    I still jump out when I read "Texans to hire Bob"

    Now he's another Bob to dread in his own right, way to go.

    Could be a very good offensive assistant, Diggs was an all-pro in his offense

    F@ck no! That was Brian Daibol’s offense, who might be available this Black Monday.
