Default Would you want Pioli and/or Crennel back?

If you were in BB's shoes, and they came asking for jobs (DC for Crennel, his old job for Pioli), would you give it to them?

I'm torn on Crennel, but would say no to Pioli.

I like Crennel and think he is a very good DC, but I said neither because I would like to see Matt Patricia stay on in that position.

No to both.

They should take a break and figure out where it all went wrong.

I voted no on both. Don't see either as an upgrade to what we have, and in Pioli's case it probably represents a significant downgrade.

I voted no to both returning as well.

Last year, it made sense to bring Josh back into the fold as O'Brien was leaving for Penn State, so the transition would be as easy as possible.

Patricia isn't up for another job and the Reese/Caserio/Belichick trio of evaluating talent seems to be doing a fine job, so why mess up the dynamic?

No to both. Pioli is a no because the Pats have been doing great in the personell department since he left. Crennel is harder to say no to but I am curious to see where this defense is now both in the playoffs and next season.

I dunna know....

I think highly of both RAC and Pioli.

I also think highly of Patricia and the Reese/Caserio combo. They've done a good job.
