I just took it as him mentioning how all the media believes he'll get fired and it's all they're talking about, not that he knows something that we don't. Think they've once again blown this out of proportion.
I don't get the notion here that Rex will all of a sudden get better and take this team to the Superbowl when history tells us otherwise. Harbaugh won Superbowl in 5th year - ALL winning seasons Coughlin won Superbowl in 4th year with Giants McCarthy won Superbowl in 5th year - 1 losing season Payton won Superbowl in 4th year Tomlin won Superbowl in 2nd year Dungy won Superbowl in 5th year with Colts Cowher won in his 14th year Belechick won Superbowl in his 2nd with Pats Gruden won Superbowl in his 1st season with Bucs Vermiel won Superbowl in 3rd year with Rams Shanahan won Superbowl in 3rd year with Broncos Holmgren won Superbowl in 5th year with Packers Switzer won Superbowl in 2nd year with Cowboys Seifert won Superbowl in 1st year with Niners Johnson won Superbowl in 4th year with Cowboys Gibbs won Superbowl in 2nd year with Redskins Walsh won Superbowl in 3rd year with Niners Parcells won Superbowl in 4th year with Giants Ditka won in his 4th year with Bears Florence won in his 2nd year Since 1980 only 1 coach has been with his team longer than 5 years and won their first Superbowl (Cowher) - History tells us Rex won't win one here. It just doesn't happen if you are not successful within your first 4-5 years.
Moreover, a lot of these coaches were on their second go rounds, (Belichek, Shanahan) possibly showing that if each coach had stayed with his past team, who knows... One thing I do know, is if Rex leaves the Jets, he will win a SB somewhere else
If Schwartz gets fired I'd give Rex a look over in Detroit, that offense is great already so add Rex with THAT D Line...
lol If this si true i got $20 that says he was using the media stream (word on the street) as a motivation for this game.
Rex will never win here. I do agree that he MAY win one elsewhere if given the chance because his schtick will motivate a team that is close when he first arrives before it goes stale -- which will still hold true to the stats I posted above.
maybe thats why he ran a fake punt on 4th and 9 from his own 43 yard line. holy fucking shit man, that wasnt even close to working.
Oh, im sure. Hes doing such a hell of a job here that he has a near 500 record, defense is declining in each of the 5 years, has no clue on how offense, and the list goes on. Yeah, that guy is a sure thing to win a super bowl! If anything, he will drive the next teams offense into the ground like he has here based on what we've seen.
