How many people here really dislike Mangini?
I, for one, don't. He was here. He got offered a HC position. He left. Good for him. Clearly he was ready. I would have taken the job too, no matter what Belichick advised. And he doesn't hate the Jets the way Belichick does dating back to them talking w/ Parcells during Super Bowl week 10 years ago.
As for the Branch thing. I don't know if he tampered or not. But him getting involved to strap the Pats was just a slick move by a division rival until proven otherwise.
