Jets could be involved in dizzying game of musical coaches

The New York Jets have reached a critical stage in their coaching search. Their top two candidates are being wooed by other teams and now there's another team in the head-coaching market -- the Denver Broncos, who parted ways with John Fox on Monday. Six teams, including the Jets, are looking for a head coach.
Basically, this is free agency, the coaching version. If the Jets don't play it right, they could end up with a fallback to the fallback choice, the coaching equivalent of Dimitri Patterson. (Okay, that might be a bit harsh, but you get the point.) This is when consultants Charley Casserly and Ron Wolf will earn their money, which I hear is well into six figures apiece.

An update on the Jets' candidates:
Dan Quinn (Seattle Seahawks defensive coordinator) -- From all indications, he's the Jets' No. 1 choice, but The Wait could be a factor. If the Seahawks reach the Super Bowl, he can't be hired by a team until Feb. 2. That could impact his ability to form a top-notch staff. It has been widely reported he'd like Kyle Shanahan as his offensive coordinator and I'm hearing his defensive-coordinator choice could be former Atlanta Falcons coach Mike Smith, but they could be tempted by other job opportunities. There could be competition for Quinn, who has drawn interest from the Falcons, San Francisco 49ers and Chicago Bears. The Broncos are now interested, according to ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter. The Jets would be helped if the 49ers hire Broncos offensive coordinator Adam Gase; one less suitor for Quinn, a Jersey guy who has told friends he'd like to return home if the job lines up.
Todd Bowles (Arizona Cardinals defensive coordinator) -- The Jets and Falcons have invited him back for second interviews. Bowles is a Bill Parcells disciple, and the word is that Parcells is lobbying his son-in-law, Falcons executive Scott Pioli, to hire Bowles. New England Patriots offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels seems to make the most sense, but, like Quinn, he's still involved in the playoffs. If the Falcons decide to move quickly and make a push for Bowles, it could rob of the Jets of their perceived fallback candidate. If Bowles isn't comfortable with any of his suitors, he can return to his well-paying job in the desert. The Falcons also plan to give a second interview to Detroit Lions defensive coordinator Teryl Austin. And don't discount Quinn in Atlanta.
Sean McDermott (Carolina Panthers defensive coordinator) -- He's a new name on the list. The Jets scheduled an interview for Wednesday, and there's a reason. They need a Plan C in the event they lose Quinn and Bowles, and they evidently don't feel the others they've interviewed rise to the "C" level. No other teams have publicly expressed interest in McDermott.
Tom Cable (Seahawks offensive-line coach) -- The Jets were impressed with his interview, but he's in the Quinn category -- he might not be available until after the Super Bowl. If they wait that long, it would be for Quinn. No other teams are pursuing Cable.
Doug Marrone (former Buffalo Bills coach) -- He was a strong candidate after opting out of his Bills' contract, with Casserly said to be pushing Marrone to people in the Jets' organization. Owner Woody Johnson, too, seemed interested, but he got cold feet because of some unflattering articles about Marrone.
Frank Reich (San Diego Chargers offensive coordinator) -- There hasn't been any buzz about Reich. He interviewed for the Bills' job, but that went to Rex Ryan.
Anthony Lynn (Jets running backs coach) -- He could join Ryan's staff in Buffalo.

I'm not against Macagnan but the Texans have been subpar the last few years. I'm just hoping that was the coaching and not the player selection that hurt them.

Think they hope to announce both Maccagan and Bowles on Thursday. If Bowles takes the job with out talking to Atlanta. Which he would be stupid not to talk to them.
Competition is getting a bit steep for Quinn. Big risk in waiting for him

Bowles would be fine IMO
Excellent defensive coach with, unlike WRECKS, the intelligence, potential and ability to pay attention to and development the other 2/3 of a team required of a HC.
Feel the same about Quinn

Hopefully they snag Bowles before he leaves to go to Atlanta. I always liked Bowles better then Quinn. Key difference:
Bowles runs his own defense; Quinn runs Carroll's. Though I do like Quinn also.

If so then I have more faith in Macagnan. Not all of the Texans recent draft picks and signings were poop.

Off topic but does anyone know if Percy Harvin will be a Jet next year or was he just a one year fix?

jets have a choice they can either pay his remaining 10 m salary which would be ludicrous and give seattle a 4th
or they can release him with no penalty and give seattle a 6th and try to sign him for cheaper and if they can't then he goes to fa and we still lose a 6th.

Hmm...I didn't pay attention to that deal when it happened but it's overpriced. We need those picks. He is a solid player though. I know were in need of a good kick returner. Saunders didn't stand out as one until we cut him.
