Jets’ first step in Mike McCarthy research: Explain this debacle

Jets fans seem to be in unanimous agreement that they do not want Todd Bowles leading their team in 2019. When it comes to who they want to replace him with … that gets a little trickier.

A true candidate for the job emerged Sunday night when the Packers fired Mike McCarthy.

He is an offensive mind, something the Jets surely will be after in Bowles’ replacement. But he is not a flawless candidate by any means.
