Rex has done more right than wrong since he came to us. You can't make a silk purse out of a sows ear
Rex has had his chance to turn things around and he hasn't. He's had 6 years with 4 out of the playoffs. I'd love to see Rex make me eat my words but it's not going to happen, this team shouldn't be at 1-6 (as of next Thursday). Not a Super Bowl team and not good enough to deal with injuries and make the playoffs but no way a future 1-6 team.
Being put in a tough position isn't why Rex has poorly prepared the team in practice or made strategically stupid decisions in game. The quality of the players does not change his abilities or strategic concepts. That is the most asinine attempt to excuse Rex of his deficiencies yet.
Nonsense. He had two good seasons out of six if this season continues on the same course. Last I checked 2 is less than 4. Or please explain what he did so great in the what will now be 4 seasons .500 or below that offsets the fact that we haven't been a winning team in 4 years. I don't expect anyone to remember my avatar, but I have had a Rex Ryan sexiest man alive avatar since 2010 prior to getting rid of it after the Detroit game. I was as big a Rex fan as anyone but it is beyond f'ing delusional to argue he has been a good coach for the Jets overall. He hasn't despite how great those first two seasons were. He is a severely deficient coach who has certainly not done more good than bad, you simply are giving more weight to the excitement of 09 and 10 than disappointment to every season since. I can't do that any longer and there is no rational argument to support doing so. Being a losing team this year isn't made better because we almost made the Super Bowl 4 years ago.
Look every team has personnel problems, lack of depth at some if not most positions plus injuries to deal with. Star players who were counted on to be major contributors are out for the year. That's where the head coach is supposed to come in. But all we hear from his fans are excuses and the blame game. Look Idzik isnt doing a great job either. His 2014 draft was a bust.
These people are tools, they all act like the Jets are their little pet. They always say how they feel bad or how they just want to see them do good, GTFO, you are attempting to make them look vastly inferior, thats your only goal.
I like Francesa but he is a fuckin idiot for saying stuff like this. Din't he go off on Chris Carlin a few years ago for Carlin doing something similar? Come on
all of what you say is true. Also, he wastes draft picks. Coples, Hill, Saunders, winters, geno--he gets nothing out of them because all he does is PRAISE his players--they are never CHALLENGED by Rex or in his doghouse. Why practice hard when your cheerleader coach sings your praises 24/7?
This mess has started at the top with Woody the penny pincher and Idzik his abiding Scrooge. You get what you draft and pay for. We type away and look like the Madoff investment this team is.
Woody has no interest in a Championship and Idzik operates the cash register. BLOW UP TIME.....like maybe an ownership who really wants to WIN
That's because our ownership sucks Doesn't pick the chip Kelly's , and finds an accountant to be a GM for a football team when IDZIK needs to work on selling IRAS to aging Jets fans!!!!!!!!!
Very well spoken.....Woody sell team to Bon Jovi!!!!!!!! Or even to KISS they will turn out a better product!!!!!!!!!!!
Right, and BB , Kraft did no other work with rest of the archival Pats.????? Pats are beating Jets at NYT crossword and the thinking mans game Jeopardy This is definitely more dumb than luck......please....maybe drinking green tea grows them some brain sells.
You don't scout a guy and grade him as a sure-fire Hall of Fame potential GOAT at the most important position in the sport and then wait until the 6th round to take him. Luck isn't everything, but luck was definitely something in that pick.
