from Armando at the miami herald:

Pepper Johnson: currently the D-line coach in New England. Played for Bill Parcells. Knows the system. Young. Energetic. Never been a coordinator.

Bryan Cox: Currently the Cleveland Browns' D-line coach under Eric Mangini. Never been a coordinator. He's familiar with the 3-4. He played for both Bill Parcells and Bill Belichick. Oh, yeah, he played for the Dolphins in the 90s and hates Buffalo.

Bob Sutton: Currently works as LB coach and defensive assistant for the Jets under Rex Ryan. Obviously cannot be interviewed until the Jets are out of the playoffs. Suffered a demotion prior to this season when Ryan took over. Sutton had been the Jets' DC from 2006-08. Coached linebackers for the Jets from 2000-2006. Was the head coach at Army from 1991-99.

Gary Gibbs: Currently coaches linebackers in KC. Coached linebackers in Dallas from 2002-2005, so spent two seasons under Parcells there. Was the defensive coordinator in New Orleans from 2006-2009. He left with Sean Payton at the same time Payton wanted to take Tony Sparano with him to be the Saints' offensive coordinator so Gibbs and Sparano are familiar.]

Imagine Bryan Cox returning to Miami as a D Coordinator?? lmao... he'd be fightin with the players

I'm thinking more along the lines of Pepper Johnson.....he was a very good ILB with the Giants in the Parcells days.......he may be a good option, though I'm not sure how much coaching experience he has?

I like the idea of Sutton because he has good experience and it conversely weakens the jets staff.

Well....if Sutton is a big reason for the Jets' success at defense this year, then he seems to be the best of the 3 listed here. After that, at least Pepper was a good linebacker himself and played as part of a great defense. Bryan Cox is with the Browns.....what is there to like about the Browns?

Pepper may be promoted from within since N.E. lost their DC. I think Sutton trumps the list now that he has "Ryan" defensive experience.

any1 fancy wade phillips if he gets sacked as cowboys coach????????

he sure sounded/looked j******** off in his press con
after the game,it looked as he knew the writing on the wall???

Yes. <~~~period
