    No, im only attacking you because you are an obvious troll with your idiotic garbage you continue to post here. Not everyone who goes to church is a clown like you. Go crawl back into your hole and wack it to your Rex posters.

    What if the team is lacking talent at several key positions? Is that Rex's fault? The record mostly reflects the poor secondary and poor QB play throughout most of the season. When Rex had a complete D and a somewhat decent offense, he took the team to back-to-back AFC championship games. Rex always gets the most out of the talent he has to work with.

    Not really. Even though those two AFC years were great, the Jets still lost some agonizing games, like the home opener to the Ravens 10-9, a horrible 10-6 showing against the fins, 9-0 to the Packers.

    Rex never had a clue about offense then and it hasn't changed a smidge since. There have always been boneheaded penalties, wasted time outs and missed coverages. I always thought it was a big mistake to hire a rookie HC with a rookie QB. That 11-5 2010 season with a capable, veteran coach should have garnered several more wins and maybe given the Jets home field through the play offs.

    It's a waste of time to continually point to a pair of losing AFC Championship games. 2009 was a fluke with six or seven teams losing to allow us a shot. I'll never forget Genius Rex at the podium during the post-game presser after the loss to the Falcons. He thought the Jets were out of contention, but, because of six teams losing they were still alive. Rex should have known that, he's a Head Coach after all.

    Ryan is a big blow hard with a strong knowledge of how to craft a solid defense and that's it. He needs to be relieved of his coaching position in New York.

    No it shows why his players love him. He was taking up for Vick because it should had been a flag on Steelers. Vick gave himself up but the Steeler still jump on him.

    I love how when a bad team beats a good team they overlooked them. People please this is the NFL nobody overlooks nobody. The Jets came out and played better no overlook just one of those games. I guess the Steelers overlook Tampa this season also?

    If he gets the most out of his talent how come we are 2-8?

    I'm glad the Jets won today but, I don't think it's because Rex is such an incredible motivator or the team came to play because of him. I'm pretty sure that professional athletes do not want to be included in a horrific footnote of owning the longest losing streak in franchise history.

    Not picking sides in this debate, BUT, have you taken a look at the talent on this roster? You'd have to get the most of of it to go 2-8. Our best player today was a guy named Jaiquan Jarrett, and most fans had forgotten he was on the roster.

    Vick looks a lot better with a few weeks of getting starters reps in practice.

    I still think they could have 4 or 5 wins right now if they had gone to him earlier...

    That's why I don't respond to his threads.

    Yes a player stepped up and had a career game. We also have better talent than a 2-8 team. The multiple one possession losses to start the year point to that. This team could very well be 4-6 or 5-5 if they didn't waste timeouts, take dumb penalties, or waste RZ opportunities.

    That goes back to coaching to me. Cool the Jets played hard for Rex today, we could have used that more than just today. That's the problem.

    Those are very legitimate complaints, but I think we have very different views on how much talent is on our roster. We have a lot of starters who should be third stringers, and they are backed up by a lot of guys who should be working at a drive-thru some place.

    This is what makes Rex an easy target to hate. He could have taken the high road after an emotional win but he ended with a nationally televised fuck you to the refs. That is absolutely not what you want your HC to do or be. As much as I rooted for him I recognize the game of football has become far more than Xs and Os on a chalkboard. A HC is a mirrow and reflection of the team, and should be held to some pretty high standards. While his passion is admirable, or his loyalty, he unfortunately does not have what it takes to be the leader of a well respected and professional team.

    So, when they win, Rex gets all of the credit for the team playing hard for them. But, when they lose, he gets none of the blame because they don't have any talent. (Weren't they playing hard in any of the losses???)

    So, to summarize the "logic" of your point of view: Rex gets all of the credit for the wins and none of the blame for the losses. Got it. What a great coach.

    As I wrote weeks ago after the New England loss, you are a fucking clown.

    Bad teams beat good teams every year. Doesn't make them a good team for winning it just means they played a good game.

    Playing well consistently is the difference between good teams and bad teams.

    It all about talent which the Jets don't have. This teamed played hard against Green Bay,Detroit,New England,Denver,Oakland,Pittsburgh. Which on paper talent for talent every one of those teams should had blew the Jets out but Oakland. So yes they do play hard for Rex. When it comes too the talent on this team the blames goes on Idzik. I'm not saying Rex is blameless but we are worse then last season and that not because of the coaching.
