Rex hired Tony because of parcells. Rex looks up to Tuna. Tony has been riding his coat tail for years.
Your post begs the question. Why is Thurman the DC if he's not on par with Ryan regarding defense? What was the point of the promotion? OJT?
He is just saying that DT is a rookie DC, so how is he gonna just step right in when he is in his first year as DC
The deuce is you and everybody would be better off by not hearing any of that shit that comes out of your mouth.
What is your avatar? A smurf coming from the suntan bed? You have no credibility whatsoever. But hey have fun being Peptobyzmul's lap dog. I bet you make a cute couple.
Sorry U left a lot of years out IMHO. The "greatest" coach in NYJ history is Ewbank since he won us a SB. Since RR has not accomplished that feat he to is just another loser amongst all the others like to name a few Winner, Walton, Carroll, Parcells (yes BP also), Kotex who were all failures in that endeavor :sad:
I would replace him with Jay Gruden, who would have taken the job. So you seem to be the one with no clue. Jay not John and he will be the next Sean Peyton. It seem I know what I'm taking about and the joke seems to be on you, because a lot of people on this board would love to have Jay Gruden who in my opinion is better than his brother and would be a true HC unlike Rex.
Grow the fuck up lover boy. Wanting to fellatiate Rex Ryan doesn't make you a Mensa member. Love and Hate are emotions having little to do with over all intelligence. While the unbalanced love or hate may impact your ability to make a cogent argument because you are overwhelmed with emotion, it doesn't impact your over all intelligence.
On the job training as you mentioned. Rex is calling the plays on defense. Thurman just doesn't have the experience to run a Rex Ryan defense WITHOUT Rex Ryan. I know Thurman has experience in the secondary but what about our strength at the defensive line? Are you really going to say I have no credibility? I'm not sure why the mods lifted your ban. It was a much better place without you contributing crap posts. What's your reasoning for your Rex and Sanchez hatred again? Did they tag team your dream girl while you were watching from some tree branch again? I stand alone and have my own opinions. Btw my avatar is Geno from a video game. He would of taken the job really? Did that come out of his mouth? Were you pleasing him one night and he dropped the beans that he would be the future HC of the Jets? Yeah you DEFINITELY know what you're talking about! Preach! John, Jay, Ricky it doesn't matter Gruden isn't coming here to coach. So you watched Hard Knocks and you got a boner for the guy. Good for you. What a retarded reply. Didn't even bother addressing my question. Keep being an idiot.
How the fuck are you going to bash and want Rex fired without a reliable replacement? One dude is making assumptions saying Jay Gruden is coaching here without any proof or plan. Just picked a fucking name out of a hat
I could give you several reasons why Rex should be fired and several reasons he should be kept none of which has anything to do with love or hate. You are clearly emotional invested and possible unbalanced to have a reasonable dialogue with on this issue. I took your question as rhetorical because anyone who was serious about having a reasoned debate wouldn't call someone with a different opinion an idiot to start the conversation.
We had this discussion before and no one had a good replacement for Rex. 2 other threads about Rex being fired. It's idiotic. No numb nuts I want the best for this team. Rex and Marty are a great combination. Aggressive coaches that both work well together. The offense looks better, the defense has studs. Players want to play for Rex they love the guy and play hard for him. One true losing season and you guys want him fired without a plan. Just because things aren't perfect. Rex is still growing as a HC.
Your eloquence and mastery of prose is on par, nay, far superior to any I have witnessed in the grandest compendiums of modern literature. Perfectly stated. How much would it cost to rent a billboard on i95 for a month? 5 grand? I think we should pitch in and get one. I'm thinking something like: Dear Rex, F the media, F ESPN, F the pundits. We, the fans are behind you and your 53. Now go kick some ass.
The Jets completely collapsed down the stretch the last 2 years. They didn't play hard they stumbled to the finish line both years. Rex has been HC for 4 years and we are now on our third OC, 2nd GM and 2nd high draft pick at QB. An argument can be made that continuity is better than moving on. The argument that Rex is a great HC who is without fault and shouldn't be held accountable is not in the best interest of the NY Jets. It's a very close call and Rex has to be held accountable good or bad. All the name calling in the world does nothing to bolster what is essentially a positions that is nothing more than Rex is great and there is nobody in the world who could do better. The Jets have a new boss, holding people accountable for their results is very much in the interest of the NY Jets. The position that nobody could do better and Rex is an aggressive HC who shouldn't be held accountable for the results doesn't seem to me to be in the best interest of the NY Jets. Your name calling doesn't give you cred and your basic position on it's merits is paper thin.
Last season, no talent on offense shit coaching on offense and we still fought to the end. That team wasn't good. Yet we were still in playoff contention the last couple weeks. They still didn't give up on Rex. You want to see a team giving up? Watch the Raiders this year or read about the Eagles last year. Season before we made some poor FO choices and we were a lucky Cruz play away from getting into the playoffs. The Dolphins game was all Holmes. We contended though. We never allowed Rex to pick his OC when he was hired. I think he gets a pass for Sparano, it was a mistake but we were suppose to get Todd Haley also and it backfired. He was suppose to help fix the pass offense. When Rex has talent on both sides of the ball the Jets were successful. We are another full draft away from getting to that point. Firing him will only cause more issues on defense and we may lose Marty as well. Our first legit OC in a decade at least and you want him gone? Please actually think. Rex is the right man for the job. Stop asking for coaches to get fired every 4 years that's not how it works. Marvin Lewis has 1 playoff win I believe and he's been coaching the Bengals for 10 years and they look better than ever. Keep Rex and MM and let's build this roster. We will compete for SBs. Firing Rex only sets us back. I didn't even have to name call in this post.
When the Jets had talent on both sides of the ball Herm Edwards was successful. Rex had very little to do with the talent that was accumulated before he showed up and you seem to want to give him a pass for the lack of talent that was accumulated when he was the HC. Nobody but Rex Ryan made Holmes a captain before the 2011 season. A player who clearly quit on the team.
Regardless..... still a BIG mistake, when even "average" fans such as myself (and almost anyone who is a fan of the Dolphins) thought the guy was a joke. I look up to my Dad, and have taken some bad advice from him, when in reality I should've listened to myself. In the end, if you're in charge the buck has to stop there. I like Rex, I think he's good for this franchise, especially considering it's been a high speed carousel of coaches and failures. Of course there's LOTS of things that occur behind the scenes, but to the public eye. Positives: Great Defensive mind Players like playing for him charismatic (and good with the media until this season). Negatives: OFFENSE..... seriously some BAD decisions. Talent evaluation. Sorry Rex, just cause a guy is a "Tough guy" and likeable doesn't mean he'll be that good. He's let some proven players go to be replaced by a shiny new toy.... that were just glitter not gold. Too much of a "players coach" The inmates running the assylum were part of the 2011 collapse. Double Edge sword: Loyalty. (too much for the wrong / his guys) Arrogance. This franchise needed some swagger, but it bites him in his big ass. It also did to his dad...... Inexperience as HC...... is he learning on the job or have we seen his peak? All in all, I want to see him stay, as the JETS finally have a real OC, but the player cupboard is bare at the moment. I'd like to see how He and MM mesh, and what they do with fresh legs on the team
The difference between Rex and Herm is X's and Os. Rex knows the game of football. Way more than Herm. Not a good comparison and Herm never got us to an AFCCG a half away from the SB. Holmes got paid and is a douchebag. Coaches can't make mistakes now? Boy if that were the case Belichdouche would of been fired a long time ago. Who paid Holmes again? Surely not Rex. Rex doesn't buy the groceries, he just does the cooking.
No, he konw just one part of the game and his stock was inflated by the play of two 1st ballot HOFers in Baltimore. Rex is not a HC, he is a mouth piece and most people are tired of listening to him. He has no clue of Offense, Special Teams or talent evaluation. He can't lead players, and he wants to be thier friend. If he was so good the Jets would have improved over the last three years, not gotten worse. He took tallented players that were already here when he arrived and over achieved, but as they left he couldn't maintian the success and his inabilities showed through. He is his dad's son to a fault.
Talent evaluation? Do we not have one of the best defensive lineman in the league in Wilkerson? Did he not elevate the play of DeVito and Pouha? Jeremy Kerley has been pretty good with Rex as the HC. You are spewing a bunch of bullshit. Look at Coples last season, a Rex pick and he had 5.5 sacks as a rookie. He led us to Foxboro in that playoff game and coached an EXCELLENT game against one of the better Patriot teams. Rex DOES NOT BUY THE GROCERIES, that is the GM's job. Stop trolling.
