Saints_kicker_garrett_f73d
While looking through Rich Cimini’s chat on ESPN.com yesterday, I found an interesting tidbit about the future of Jets quarterbacks coach Matt Cavanaugh . After posting this on Twitter last night, a lot of Jets fans started throwing out different names for his replacement.  From Rich Gannon to Chad Pennington and even Mark Brunell, one thing is for sure..Jets fans were in favor of this move.  While no announcement has been made yet, it sounds as if Cavanaugh believes he has coached his final game in New York.

Via Rant Sports  |  January 08, 2012
The regression of the offensive line had a major impact on the New York Jets in 2011, as they sputtered to an 8-8 finish and fell a game short of reaching the postseason. Quarterback Mark Sanchez was definitely affected by all of the hits he took as a result of the downgrade in pass protection, but to his credit, he never complained or ever blamed any but himself for his struggles...
