Tony Sparano Approval Poll

PrintHey folks. I saw a request by one of our members for a Tony Sparano approval poll, so here it is. The news are obviously still just breaking and we don't know what kind of staff or the specifics of what type of offense Tony will run, however I just ask that you go with your gut on this. For myself, I'm leaning towards yes, I approve, however I would like to see what kind of staff he assembles first before I make a final judgement. If the Jets land Todd Haley, he will definitely have my support. If they choose to go with some more no-names for cost reasons or whatever, I know that I will not be happy with it. In any case, please let us know what you think in the poll and in the comments below. Thank you, and go Jets!

Anybody that is not Shotty is a gain.
I always liked Sparano in MIA and I think that he will give us some attitude that we have not had on O. I do hope that we can bag Haley also to help with the passing game or at least keep Moore involved in that area.
But DING DONG THE WITCH IS DEAD! Schotty is no longer a JET!

Well... that's not entirely true.
Just last year Jimmy Raye still had a job as an OC. It can always get worse.
With that said, I’m happy with the hire, especially if we get Haley too.

Place you bets
How long will it take during the 2012 season for people to start finger pointing at Sparano. I say he will get a pass for the first 4 game. The impatient fans will only give him a short window if the Jets start the season flat on offense. My bet will be by the fifth game the finger pointing will start. Can’t wait for the 2012 season.
I personally don’t like him that much, but if we also get Todd Haley, that changes things. I think that we might then have a duo that works well.
Wasn’t there a report that Haley was visiting the Jets facility today?
Yes, he is interviewing today. Really hoping they sign him.

Who wanted this?
He just signed up, he hasn’t done anything yet. He hasn’t had time to take his first bowel movement in the facility yet. He hasn’t met the players, he hasn’t streaked through the facility singing the King and I… this is why are players are effing nuts cause we as Jet fans are calling for approval on the first day.
And the home of the .... JETS!!!
Now lets get a G-D snack!!!

It’s not for approval on the job he’s doing, it’s approval of the front office in signing this specific candidate to the job. We just got rid of our old coach and replaced him. It’s not unreasonable to ask how people feel about the job the FO did doing that.

I say we should all wait for at least 3 bowel movements before we start talking good or bad.
Just seems fair to me.
Pics or it didn't happen.
Wait what.

40 votes already?
Geez. I’m in wait and see mode for now. I guess I’ll feel better once we find out who is coming in as the QB.
BTW- I like the photo of Sparano spitting….shows passion

I always forget just how big this blog is until we do polls… Every time I’m pleasantly surprised. Lot of people post, ridiculous how many people just read it.

I agree, but I doubt Sparano is going to come in and just accept Cavanaugh.
My hope is that there’s no QB Coach announcement yet because they’re trying to shore up the passing game (::fingers crossed:: Todd Haley) situation first.
Apparently, news reports said Cav knew his number was up at least a week ago. I don’t know where he’ll pull from, but I agree the choice of QB coach will be crucial, in particular to shape our expectations of Sanchez next season.
I don't know much about Todd Haley
but judging from what the majority is saying around here, he’s pretty good. I’m hoping for some good news tonight.
Also, I loved the name you gave Rex and Spa——Rexano. I’m waiting for the morphed pics to come out soon.

Tis beyond my photoshopping skills...
but I’m guessing he would not be the most attractive man I’d ever seen.
The 2011 season isn't even over yet
Anything we say about Sparano, good or bad, is nothing more than conjecture.
"Chrebet is magic!"
He's better than Schotty
He took the 1-15 Dolphins to 11-5 by finding their strength which was running the ball and turning it into the “wildcat” offense. If you combine that he is an o-line guy and todd haley who is a passing guy will be working together, it makes a good mix.
Neither of them are young, or new to this. They have experience running a whole team, now there are two of them to just run an offense. I read something this morning. When Sporano and Haley coached with the Cowboys in 2006, the Cowboys had the #2 ranked offense in the NFL at 28 ppg. They didn’t have Dez Bryant, and all the other pieces they have now either.
I will be happier
if Haley joins, that’s for sure. Bottom line is that Sanchez and the O-line better improve a fair bit if we are going to have a chance next year. Not sure these guys are miracle workers, but I will keep an open mind.
I think our O Line failures can fall on Schotty's schemes and play calling.
Opposing defenses knew what plays we were running at most given times. Then factor in the the myriad of formations and motions we used, it’s a wonder Sanchez isn’t in a coma. The biggest nonscheme related issue is obviously Hunter. Turner’s eventual return will hopefully give us some depth, but we need a RT.
If you did that and it was shopped I say well done to you sir.

Nice job
How don’t know how you guys have the patience to do this stuff

Do you want to take a shot at morphing "Rexano"?
Our new loving nickname for the combination that is Rex and Tony?
Further suggestion would be "Ryano"
although that sounds a little too much like Rihanna for my taste.
I see Rex and I think I see Spa, Westhoff and Haley but I don't get the peti
Oh now I get it….Pettine. You don’t want to know how long I had to stare at that name before I figured it out.

It kind of sounds like some old timey British term. As in,

So far
Pls explain the thought of this if haley dont sign on, how will this improve the offense?? or did the jets not think about this like they dont anything else
Joke hire
I am sorry but what the hell does Tony Sparano know about offense? Has anyone watched the Dolphins lately and said geez I wish we had that offense. There is good reason why the dolphins fans are laughing at us.
Disapprove.
There is nothing about the Miami offense that excites me. They nothing creative to get BMarsh in position to make plays. They slammed Reggie up the gut like he was 220 lbs. Charles Clay was an athletic FB/HB that didn’t get touches in space. Fasano did nothing.
They only thing that’s exciting is a philosophical recommitment to the running game. But there’s nothing that makes me excited about Sanchez’s development going forward. And in this league, u go as the QB goes.
This hire was all about Rex and his defense. ’09 here we come.
We better get a stud RB, stud OLB and a stud safety. Because we’re going to be modelled after the ‘00 Ravens. And if we don’t have dominant defense and run game, its going to be a loooong season.
Unfortunately, I think this is the middle of the end of the Rex Ryan era.

My head agrees with you
my heart wants to think that with Haley this could be like the 2006 Cowboys Sparano/Haley combo that took a first time 26 year-old starter at QB to a top 10 offense. One can dream, right?
They slammed bush up the middle on his way to his first 1000+ season.

As ridiculous as he looks morphed,
I think Rex in glasses makes him look slightly more dignified. Maybe he should try that as his next gimmick when it’s “time to get serious.”

Actually, at the Jets-Skins game,
I wore reflective sunglasses. I was hoping the glint would catch Rex Grossman’s eye and make him throw to Revis by mistake. Sorta worked, actually.
*high five*
Now that’s how you support your team

Until we know more, I’m thinking of him like Wade Phillips. Terrible HC, but great OC. What Wade is doing now in Houston is incredible. I’m dreaming of similar offensive results.

When the hell was he a great OC? Guys like Wade and Norv have looong track records of being fantastic coordinators. Sparano has one season of success to hang his hat on, and even then he didn’t run the whole show.
Sorry, I meant Wade as a terrible HC and great OC. That’s just what I’m hoping for. Let me dream until we actually see them play.

I'm not saying we can hang our hat on this.
But I think from a syllogistic perspective we should all take a chill pill: nobody is saying his track record as an OC was a bad one. It just wasn’t an extensive one. From what most people appear to be saying regarding his short time calling plays in Dallas, it was actually pretty good.
But I get it: he’s not Norv Turner or Wade Phillips. Well Norv Turner and Wade Phillips weren’t Norv Turner and Wade Phillips until they were. That is to say, until someone gave them a place to hang their hats as OCs.
So when people say, “maybe he’s one of those guys who’s not a great HC, but is a great OC” – well, no OC was a good OC without a place to create a track record. If you don’t want that place to be NYJ, that’s fair. But personally, I’m reserving judgment on him as an OC until I see it.
I don’t have blind faith in the Jets FO, but I’m hoping they know something I don’t. Though realistically, there’s nothing much I can do, even if that’s not the case.
i don't remember people thinking he was a laughing stock
