Ryan: Pettine will interview with Bills today

[jnagy]

Pettine would be a great hire. He would bring some attitude to this D. I really like the direction OBD seems to be going this time around.

hope not...more setbacks

Not nessessarily.
Commitment to the 3-4 is what lacked under Chan .. he had no commitment to anything on the D

Do not take this the wrong way, not tying to be rude, but when did Pettine coach a 43? I know the Jets had some 43 looks, however, I don't think that makes the guy well versed. The Bills ran a "creep" defense at times, but that does not make Wanny well versed in that style...

Again, I could be wrong here but Pettine coached in Baltimore whom is a 34 and in jersey with the 34 style Jets.

he coached a 46 hybrid. a 46 is kind of like a 34, so it's a common mistake. The thing about it though is the Ravens when he was there, and the jets the passed two years have played a forty front around half of their snaps. 34 teams need to have 43 elements these days simply because of all the spread looks they get.

And to be perfectly honest, defense is defense. LeBeau started his coaching career running four and five man fronts, he seems to switch to three man fronts just fine(that was an example to prove a point, not a comparison).
