Here is the other thing...they could promote Brian Gaine. It is still the best fit. All of this talk about Senior Bowl and talking to the coaches etc. is out the window. He knows what Joe wants. He fits with Aponte. Gaine is respected in the league.
Maybe he should be promoted and see how it goes next year. IF, it fails, clean house and start over for real.

I think Brian Gaine should still be considered for the gig.
Was Gaine interviewed for a promotion other than the fins this year? I think he has in the past.
I'll wager that Gaine stays put in the same position, unless the new GM says otherwise.
