I'm glad he's giving the team 2 days off. Next the benching at EVERY position needs to be assessed. Sent via Samsung Galaxy S2
I think he's getting a bit tired of coaching this team to be honest. These guys just don't put out when the chips are down and no amount of coaching is making any difference at all. You can see it in his eyes, Rex is reaching the point of giving the hell up on this team for good... Like Wade Phillips, he's probably better off as a DC.
Rex has said repeatedly that when Sanchez is no longer the Jet's starting QB he'll no longer be the coach. I would not be shocked if he resigned and gave the team to Sparano if it came to that.
Rex simply knows if Sanchez doesn't pan out then he will be fired. It is how the coaching carrousel works.
Coaches get two QB's. GM's get two coaches. Rex should be ok unless Tebow counts as QB two. Tannenbaum is in trouble either way.
Two QB's? It takes 3-4 years to cultivate a rookie QB. No coach gets more than 3-4 years to turn a team around.
You can almost tell he wants to kill Sanchez. Just the studder about the turnover just before the half.
Sanchez has been babied in this organization for too long! He needs to be criticized by the coaching staff in public, if his psyche is too fragile than he shouldn't be a QB in the NFL, period!
Ok, coaches who go to the playoffs their first two seasons with the team get two QB's. That better for you? Generally speaking a coach doesn't get the heave-ho with his first QB unless the team is in collapse during his time with the team. Bill Belichik got Kosar and then Vinny and then gone. That's because the team wasn't advancing under his aegis. he got the benefit of the doubt with Kosar, who was the best player in Cleveland when he arrived, and he got to bring in another QB to make things work. Marvin Lewis is working on his second QB in Cincy with Palmer not working out for him and Dalton his second chance. Kitna didn't count because Palmer was the 2003 #1 pick and clearly the guy Lewis was going to get his first shot with. That Rex comes from the defensive side makes it more likely he'll get a do-over at QB. Now if his defense is terrible this year, well that's problematic, and right now I could see his defense giving up 350 points at the rate they are going.
Well, I applaud your optimism in not believing this is going to be a collapse season. With the amount of dumb things Ryan has said over his career with the Jets and the general laughingstock status the franchise has attained over the past 15 months or so...I'm not sure he'll get another 3-4 years if this season is a 6 win (or less) campaign. More and more, the narrative is going to look like Ryan and Sanchez lucked into a couple of fluke runs to the AFC title game (the team was far from great either season during the regular season)...with players that Ryan inherited on defense. And since then, it's been total decline, both on the field and in the locker room. The franchise is approaching the same football irrelevance as the Mangini teams, but with the added "buffoon" image off the field.
I don't think there's any question that if the Jets collapse the odds strongly favor a wipe-out of everybody of consequence in the management.coaching chain. I still don't believe the Jets are going to collapse. I still see 8 or 9 very winnable games on the schedule and I think the Jets will win at least 4 or 5 of those. They may even get a surprise win somewhere along the line. That gets them to 7 wins or maybe a bit better. If they start the QB carousel early, well then they'll probably lose 11 games and if I had to guess that'll cause the wipe-out of management, This team has a few glaring weaknesses right now. They have no WR's that scare anybody and they have no back capable of grinding things out for them. In that light Sanchez looks terrible and that's going to continue until Sparano glues things back together somehow. Somewhere in here the Jets are just going to have to say "Oh what the fuck, go for it anyway" and start stretching the field on every 3rd or 4th play. If they don't do that then they have Sanchez throwing into a tight field full of defenders and Greene and Powell running against a stuffed box.
Rex did look pissed, but does he have what it takes to get this team playing again, because that looked a lot like a capitulation out there. If Rex is the coach we all hope he is, he will be able to jolt this team into a respectable performance against the Texans (I'm not saying a win, just an acceptable level of play) and from there maybe things can be rebuilt. Another capitulation and I really think he is on the hot seat, along with Tanny and Sanchez. We've seen the Jets rebound before when things have looked awful. It can happen again, but it's all on Rex.
In Cimini's followup to the the link at the top he says Ryan will stick with Sanchez and that pretty much finishes the season if he does. And I am sure the only reason they will is that that the fools spent three months saying Sanshit is the QB.
