So TL;DR: I'd prefer an offensive minded HC for the #Jets. But the best candidate is gone. Aaron Glenn sounds like Saleh 2.0, but that doesn't mean we shouldn't root for him. At the end of the day, if the QB is right, winning should follow, even with a defensive minded HC.

If the #Jets do select a defensive minded HC - which appears most likely to be Aaron Glenn (Lions' DC) - I will of course root for him and hope they got it right. But everything I hear about him sounds like what we heard about Saleh.. But that doesn't mean he IS Saleh!

Of course you could get it wrong: there are countless examples of QBs turning the OC great (Daboll, Brady?, Bienemy, etc) instead of the other way around (Shanahan, O'Connell, etc.) - just to name a few recent examples.

Also worth pointing out that having an offensive minded HC safeguards against losing a hot, young, offensive OC to a HC position in the future - the mind is with the HC and not (all) with the OC.

As a #Jets fan, I'm tired of having a defensive minded HC; over the last 20 years, our problem has never been having a bad defense, but struggling to field an even mediocre offense. That's why I'd rather take a chance with a McCown or Coen.
