Hmm, how much of the D improvement in season is down to Whitt, the players and/or Quinn? I suspect this is a Rooney Rule request, but if we lose him is it a big loss?

Good question. The thought of a team requesting to interview Whitt never crossed my mind, but the more I think about it the more it makes sense, the defense saw a significant improvement in one season.

I feel like the defense had major talent deficiencies at the beginning of the year. We had no LBs, no CBs, and no pass rushers at the beginning of the year. Yet, Whitt was able to make this . I can see why some teams would be interested.

I don't want to lose Whitt. Him and Quinn have continuity and experience. I think he's done a good job with the personnel provided so yes it would be a big loss. His defenses will get better as the unit talent continues to increase.

Jets are throwing a wide net, with at least 14 interview requests. I expect that this is more a case of people not wanting to go to the Jets and them not wanting to end up with a Zorn type hire.
