That's something you have to sit down and talk to Terry and Mike and Mr. Johnson and everybody else that's involved in all of those decisions and figure out which way we're headed.

To sit on Mike Gonzalez until the ninth inning might have put you in a position where you don't get an opportunity to use him. It just made all the sense in the world.

I was 22 years old when I met Robert Johnson. I was there the night he was poisoned.

Joe Klein, Sandy Johnson and Terry Ryan. Those are my guys for 30 years. I'm very lucky to have that kind of foundation and a guy like Terry to tie it all together.

I addressed that six weeks ago. I still stand on what I said. I'm coach of the Jets. The season will end, we'll try to get this thing going in the right direction. We've got a lot of things to do here.

Ray Lewis has done it, been in the Super Bowl, been in some Pro Bowls, so I think Jonathan Vilma kind of looks at him as a former Miami player and understands he has some attributes like Ray. Now it's just a matter of him playing to that level. As he progresses and becomes better, he has that potential.
