[Mod Edit] New York Post’s Justin Tasch reports that Jets reporter Brian Costello says Aaron Glenn told people that the Jets are his first choice

The Saints are not above making a "marketing move" in this hire. They did it with DA and sold the "continuity" angle. Of course a team without Sean and Drew can not be like a team with Sean and Drew, but I digress. No matter what Mickey says, I think everyone knew we had tough times ahead of us and they were focused on selling the fan base on something that would keep them interested (and buying tickets). Obviously, that didn't last long.
DA had his Raiders tenure handing around him from Day One.
At least with Brady, you have positive memories for part of your fanbase with his LSU connections.
And being his first HC job, hope for the future.
