Teams don't just give out AHC titles to just anyone (well, except for the Chiefs) and Sutton was well respected across the league.

Ah yes the good old "people I personally know" source. Jets fans are only slightly less delusional than Chiefs fans. At least their team has given them reason for it every few years though.
I actually am somewhat optimistic about Sutton just for the fact that he realizes you've got to be aggressive on defense, but don't act like he's some prized hire. Hell the reason he probably took the Chiefs job is because he could see the "nuclear ****ing enema" that team will probably get after this year.
Yeah and look at their head coaches during his time there, not exactly a brain trust there. But hell, I'm willing to give some credit for the success that some of those guys had to Sutton, that still doesn't leave me thinking the defense will suddenly be some top 5 defense like a lot of people here seem to think. I'll be pleased if the defense consistently plays in the 10 range, but I won't be surprised if its in the 20 range. Hell I'll take just some consistency. Tired of them playing some team they probably should get blown out by tough and then getting their asses handed to them by teams that shouldn't.
Oh, and Scott Pioli, Romeo Crennel, and Josch McDaniels say hi. Respect doesn't mean jack shit when its unfounded. We'll find out if it is for Sutton.
