Eric Mangini has to give back his key to the city

Blogged under Bloglockers, Front Page, General by admin on Wednesday 16 January 2008 at 5:49 pm

Eric Mangini could do no wrong in 2006 as he led the Jets to the playoffs.  But this season the Jets ran into a tough schedule and lack of talent which led them to a 4-12 record.  Mangini has now been the head coach of the Jets for two seasons and he has compiled a 14-18 (.438 %) record during the regular season and he’s 0-1 in the post season.  Mangini might be under pressure next season if the Jets don’t rebound in 2008.

The New York Jets should have stuck with Chad Pennington

With all of the injuries that Chad Pennington fought through to continue his career, he deserved the respect of the coaching staff and front office but he didn’t get it as he was benched in the middle of the season for Kellen Clemens.  Pennington played in 9 games this season for the Jets and he completed 179 of 260 passes (68.8%) for 1,765 yards with 10 TD passes and 9 interceptions (86.1 QB Rating).  He also carried the ball 20 times for 32 yards (1.6 ypc) with 1 TD run this season.  Pennington has now played in 70 games in his NFL career and he has completed 1,259 of 1,919 passes (65.6%) for 13,738 yards with 82 TD passes and 55 interceptions (88.9 QB Rating).  He also has carried the ball 147 times for 396 yards (2.7 ypc) with 6 TD runs.

Kellen Clemens was the starter in the second half of the season and he was awful.  He played in 10 games for the Jets this season and he completed 130 of 250 passes (52%) for 1,529 yards with 5 TD passes and 10 interceptions (60.9 QB Rating).  He also carried the ball 27 times for 111 yards (4.1 ypc) with 1 TD run.  Coming into this season Clemens had thrown 1 incompleted pass and he had carried the football 2 times for 10 yards.
