Yeah, extending a contract one year isn't exactly a huge vote of confidence. I think anything below 8-8 will be a big blow to the Mangini/Tannebaum duo and put them on very thin ice.

It's not extended. The Jets owner merely said that, no matter the outcome of the 2008 season, Magini is guarunteed a job in 2009.

I could go for a few more years of Belichick saying "Great game, Eric, Great game. Awesome" as Belichick walks off a winner.
Hey Eric - F*CK YOU.
Yea, me too. But I would really like to see this pre-game hand shake, "Good to see you Eric, how's the new job coaching special teams for the Lions? Good luck, Idiot."
Now, that's fun.
Yea, we've heard that before. Ask Brian Billick about a guaranteed job.

I took your advise and called him and asked him. He says that retirement is great. *rimshot*
With what Woody Johnson promised today and $8, Mangini and Tannenbaum can buy a cup of Latte from Starbucks. If the Jets tank again this year, look for Johnson to revise his promise. All Johnson did was to take pressure off of Mangini and Tannebaum during the season and not have the "will they be fired" question be raised every week. If the Jets go 4-12 again this year after the acquisitions of Mangini's types of players, don't expect to see Mangini on the sidelines in 2009.
If this happens, Mangini has only himself to blame. He obviously didn't learn from his mentor. Belichick, Parcells, and even Mike Tomlin in Pittsburgh have proven that you don't go into a job and try to force players to fit into your system. Belichick won his first Super Bowl with the Pats' defense playing near exclusively 4-3. He didn't even switch to the 3-4 as the base until 2003. Granted he and Crennel had far more experience and probably confidence in their abilities to be able to adapt to other systems. With little even coordinator experience, I don't know if Mangini knows how to gameplan any other way than the 3-4. Even his 3-4 hasn't been near exotic as the Patriots' 3-4 except for maybe a handful of games.
