True, but it the only spot where he adds value to the team. If not he should be fired. Honing in on just the Defense is what a DC does, and that's all he has done since he has been here.
Fire the buffoon...What Tanny can only make mistakes with on the field personnel, IMHO, he can't put together a winning coaching staff either...Rex is in over his head, last year was a red flag & this year it is confirmed...
Again I like Rex,,,but I want a head coach that KNOWS what he is doing NOT learning what to do. The fiasco of last year and way we melted down , Rex losing the pulse and claiming to not have a clue to the problems, the Miami game, making Holmes captain,and then this team coming out this year and looking like it did / has,,,,,ugh ! 2012 in my eyes was the " one more year " for Tanny and Rex ,,,do not promote a gm from within,,do not promote coordinators or coaches from within those are only band aides and do nothing to solve this organizations problems ! Blow it up top to bottom,,,it's over we are a mess and we have been a joke / circus all year !
Considering I want most Jets...including veteran players...to go, who cares what they think? Clean house.
Yeah lets try to sign Sean Peyton, because he can coach both sides of the ball instead of just one LMFAO Remember Greg Williams had to come in and instill a legit D to go along with Peyton's O to win a SB. Unless Peyton comes here WITH Drew Brees or another top tier QB it won't mean sht, so forget about it. Defense is much harder to coach and be successful at than O in this NFL, and Rex has given us a LEGIT D without a friggin pass rusher! The only problem I have had with Rex was the Sparano hiring. The next coordinator needs to be a guy like Norv Turner, and given what Rex has got out of limited talent throughout his tenure, he should have one more shot at getting someone to run a solid Offense.

Rex wouldn't bring in a Norv Turners because he wants to ground and pound. If Rex is still here next year I'd expect same style offense. If you haven't figured it out, from day one Rex has been trying to recreate the Ravens.
I'm sure the vets love it. Zero accountability, locker room doesn't care one bit about anything. Easy cash. Who on this team has fire under their ass?
They didn't exactly play like they wanted him back today...or they played like they knew he would be back anyway.
of course they do. it's a "if you scratch our back we'll scratch yours" kinda thing. Rex has always been loyal to his vets.
So, you want to get a new GM and coach in here who have probably never run a team before and have them learn on the job? This is the problem: you fire these guys, and you're hiring people who either are new to the job themselves or have been fired elsewhere. Or, you're getting someone who is coming out of retirement. There's no magic elixir to this.
