The Facts:
The Jets interviewed Patriots defensive coordinator Eric Mangini on Sunday night for their vacant head coaching job. GM Terry Bradway and assistant GM Mike Tannenbaum met with Mangini in the Foxboro area. The two then returned to New York to prepare for their interview with former Vikings coach Mike Tice on Monday.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
The Jets are expected to move quickly once the interview with Tice is over. Mangini, who turns 35 this week, appears to be the top name on the Jets' list. But his inexperience and age could be a factor. There are several things working in his favor, including his ties to Tannenbaum and the Jets, where he served as an assistant from 1997-99.
