Report: Bill Polian turns down New York Jets' overtures - NFL.com

Why would he accept a job that forces a HC, Rex Ryan, as part of the deal?

It's like the RedSox's, this past year.. We know how well that went...

He's no dummy...

Damn! I wanted Polian to go to the Jets. Polian destroyed the Colts with bad personnel decisions his last few years. If they weren't lucky enough to win the Andrew Luck sweepstakes, that team would be doomed for years. He has struck out on first round picks since like 2006.

I think Rex Ryan is going to scare off most good GMs. Most GMs do not want a head coach who talks too much and cannot coach when the chips are down.

Woody must have someone already in mind. If not, he's a bigger fool than we thought with all the other vacancies popping up.

Who can blame him? Most people run away from a nuclear disaster not toward it.

It is going to be really tough to get a good GM who doesn't get to make the HC decision. He should have cleaned house.

He retained the guy who championed Mark Sanchez all season long. He's certainly fool enough.

They have their sights set on the 49ers GM.

Who cares what a GM wants? We WANT him. Best coach I ever laughed at.

Woody , he's a bigger fool than we thought

How big a fool did we think he is? Compare him to a hurricane-fool, or a Sears Tower fool.

Bill Polian's tanking 2011 worked out perfectly for the Colts. . . . but not for Polian.

Even if he was starting from scratch, firing Tannenbaum is anything but foolish. Keeping Rex on the other hand.....

How bad is it in NY?

During last year's draft season, Bradway's view on the incoming quarterback class was clear. He wanted Russell Wilson. Bradway talked about Wilson so much that the Wisconsin product was called "Russell Bradway" inside the Jets' building, defensive coordinator Mike Pettine told The Star-Ledger.

So, had the former GM followed the wishes of the former GM once removed, that team could have had a dynamic young QB (and probably ruined him) instead of the stiff they had under center. That news is out there, and it's clearly the sort of thing that new GMs don't want to read about.

Good luck with your search, Woody.... :singing:
