Gastineau Lives Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 http://www.rotoworld.com/player/nfl/8357/rex-ryan Bleacher Report's Jason Cole reports a "couple of sources" reiterated that Rex Ryan to the Falcons as their head coach "seems natural." This isn't the first time we've read a Rex-to-Atlanta rumor. Ryan interviewed for the head-coaching job that Mike Smith eventually got in 2008. Now, Smith is likely done. The Falcons recently made the switch to a 3-4 defense. And while the offense is in fine shape only needing a piece here or there, the defense needs an overhaul. Nobody has ever doubted Ryan's coaching ability. He just needs to find the right guy to run the offense. Cole reports the Falcons would try to keep OC Dirk Koetter in place for 2015.

JustInFudge Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 He'd be a perfect fit there. I bet they'd win the NFCS easily next season if they hired Rex. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beerfish Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 That is the team I thought he would go to months ago. The team is longing for a Defense total change. The team has just had a low personality coach, Rex would be a nice fit there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaBallhawk Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 Mike Smith that moron dug his own grave when he signed up the Falcons for Hard Knocks. It was painfully obvious that they're gonna suck this year and that he has zero connection to the team. Zero passion. The Falcons/Ryan connection does make sense. They need an overhaul on defense, they're basically what we are except the other way around, we need an QB/offensive guru. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe W. Namath Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 All the falcons need to do is spend the next 9 1st round picks on defensive players and they still wont be able to create a turnover to save their lives under rex.

Jetster Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 Ed Reed, Shaun Ellis, Ray Lewis, Revis, Ngata, Suggs, Cromarty, Bart ain't walking into Atlantas locker room door. You think Rex D has looked bad this year for the Jets, Falcons have ZERO pass rush,lol. In Hotlanta next year he'll look just like his twin at Nawlins. Bad!

bitonti Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 there are going to be 10 HC vacancies this offseason, Rex is good enough to get one of those jobs. Or put it another way there aren't 10 potential HC better than Rex. Not with his resume. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dbatesman Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 Makes sense. The Falcons only have one first-rounder in their secondary, so if it doesn't work out, it won't be Rex's fault Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FTL Jet Fan Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 It wouldn't suprise me if he ended up in Miami if Philbin is fired apparently Ross loves Rex. Wheteher that is true or not I have no idea but there is a lot of talk down here of either Harbaugh or Rex. I hate the Dolphins!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

artemusclyde Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 Rex could go **** himself. Hope that ****er never gets another job. Him calling out Jets fan for rooting for a loss was basically a total slap in the face of the Jets fans. Can't wait for this ****er to leave.

Jetster Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 What was BB's resume before Kraft hired him? All Jet fans need to learn there NFL history. The facts are that Belichick had the Browns in an upswing playing very well B4 Modell announced he was moving the team. So, let's not rewrite history & as a long time Jet fan myself Belichick & Rex are polar opposites. I hate Belichick but he coaches circles around Rex. Look at the injuries they have had on defense this year, look at how well their special teams play, somehow they are always in the top of the league in forcing turnovers. Honestly, I think the hardest thing Belichick deals with in this rivalry is probably having an overconfident team. Rex is a dumb azz & a lousy Head Coach that hasn't improved one bit over the last 6 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PatsFanTX Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 What was BB's resume before Kraft hired him? Took over a 4-win Cleveland team, turned the roster by 90% and won the Division in his 4th year. Much more impressive than what Rex did by taking over a 9-win Mangini team and driving it into the dirt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jetster Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 So your point is while BB sucked, he didn't suck as much as Rex. Got it. God I would love to see Woody keep Rex & sign him to a 4 year deal so he can turn this roster over by 90% just to prove to Jet fans that he's a shaman. Please stop posting if you are arguing that Rex is as good of a coach as Belichick. I hate the Patriots as much as anyone here, LOATH them, but they literally came two c hairs away from winning 5 Superbowls! A lucky helmet catch & a throw from Brady 3 inches to high to Welker thwarted them thank god. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BB's resume before Tom Brady: - embarrassing overall losing record has a Head Coach, 41-57 - 5 out of 6 losing seasons - 5 out of 6 never reaching the playoffs - 5 out of 6 not even .500 - zero division titles - zero conference championships - zero super bowl titles.
