You’ll always see great coach, i.e. Shanahan, Bellichick, etc…rally up his team from the sidelines. Mangini just stands there looking pissed off.

I feel like he needs to communicate more with the team during games, and not look so rigid when one of his players make a mistake.

Go Jets.

It’s not that nobody has the guts to answer the question – it’s just a bizarre question based on complete conjecture. (Have you tried getting a job with the NY media?)

Favre has admitted that he discussed with the coaching staff simplifying some of the pre-snap movement, but the playbook has remained unchanged (and is in fact more varied, certainly in terms of the running game, than it has been the last two years). This change was agreed with the coaching staff because Favre, having spent the best part of 17 years in a conventional West Coast Offense, said that he can read the defense better without the movement.

Favre has called some audibles (for example the one against Miami where he threw a 56 yard TD pass to Cotchery), but not many. I think he called more audibles in that KSK parody than he has all season. I didn’t see him change the play much on Sunday at all.

If what you were saying were true then I would agree that Favre should get all the blame. All evidence says that it is not the case, but I hope this is what you needed to hear.

Now, somebody has answered your question, I trust you can give it a rest as promised. You are entitled to dislike Favre, but don’t have a go at the rest of us for rooting for our team.

P.S. Fonzie and Hank: You are both posting from the same computer and in the past you said this was because you are Father and Son. By all means continue to make the same arguments, but it doesn’t strengthen your argument to pretend you have no connection.

I don’t give favre a complete pass on this but the game schemes don’t work.
There is no chance favre is calling the plays or this would look more like his GB days.

Answer me this queston and i will stop all of this nonsense.

Why are all of you FARVE worshippers blaming the coaching staff when BRETT FARVE has the go-ahead to call the plays and the audibles and even after and shottenhiemer dummied down the playbook for FARVE? Does ANYBODY on this blog have the guts to answer this question so we can finally put this to rest?

You remind me of Johnny Styne, wherever he is. You are clueless as to what mangini is doing to this team here. You only see the games and judge the losses on the hands of the coaching staff who have not taken a break except for the bye week and are still trying to get the team to gel together. You see this is a mistake the Jets owner to make money off the PSL’s. What he did was he grabbed BRETT FARVE and forced Mangini to work around FARVE which as you seee now isn’t really working. The team is out of sync as far as stability without their true leader CHAD PENNINGTON and having FARVE in there has continued to slow down the process of chemistry this team has.
