JOJOTOWNSELL Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 this is a great article! lmfao http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2014/09/29/rob-ryan-is-right-nobodys-doing-worse-than-the-ryan-brothers/ On Sunday, the Saints defense led by coordinator Rob Ryan and the Jets defense led by head coach Rex Ryan gave up a total of 62 points and 805 yards while forcing zero turnovers in losses to the Cowboys and Lions. The Ryan brothers know they need to do better. As Rob Ryan said before Sunday’s games, the inability of the Saints and Jets to force turnovers is a black mark on the family name. “Right now, man, nobody’s doing worse than the Ryan brothers,” Rob Ryan said, via Katherine Terrell of NOLA.com. “We might say we are two of the best coaches, and I believe that, and I know that. We’re doing everything we can to do it, but we have to do more. There’s got to be something else out there. We keep emphasizing it and all of that, but that’s lip service. We need to start getting turnovers and it needs to start happening this week.” Opposing quarterbacks have thrown 110 passes against the Saints and 96 passes against the Jets this season, and neither team has a single interception. The Saints have only recovered one fumble, and the Jets have only recovered two. When it comes to forcing turnovers, the Ryans’ defenses are at the bottom of the league. In fairness to Rex, however, it should be pointed out that Rob really has no business lumping his defense in with Rex’s because the Jets’ defense is a lot better than the Saints’ defense. The Jets’ defense is leading the league in sacks and rushing yards allowed per game and is fourth in the league in total yards per game. Aside from forcing turnovers, the Jets’ defense is playing well. But the 29th-ranked Saints’ defense is terrible any way you slice it. Both Ryan brothers are 1-3 and in danger of losing their jobs, but Rex’s problem is his offense. If Rex coached a team with Drew Brees, no one would be saying Rex was having a bad year.

jgb Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 The thought of having Drew brees as qb of the NYJ makes my wiener hard but let's get real idzik would lowball Jesus Christ himself if he came back as a qb and then try to sweet talk him at dinner at Bennigans on Route 1 into taking the deal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irish Jet Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 Rob has genuinely leached of Rex and Buddy's success and reputation. The majority of the defence's he's coached in the NFL have been f*cking awful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fwiw just wondered what this team would look like with Sean Payton as HC. One could only wonder really. It leads to a good debate in Players vs. Scheme.

We passed on it. Also, I don't believe Drew Brees without Sean Payton or Norv Turner, and with Rex instead is the Drew Brees we all know and love today.

Integrity28 Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 “Right now, man, nobody’s doing worse than the Ryan brothers,” This is all I could think of watching the Cowboys stampede the Saints last night. This, and I also thought, "Wow. So, here is a team that wanted to commit to the run, they used their draft picks on high OL picks and no matter which RB takes the ball, they run all day." Yet, our identity is supposed to be ground and pound? Right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, Brees coming here without Payton was probably never going to turn out the the Brees we all know. I feel pretty confident of that. He would have had a hard time throwing in the meadowlands vs. a Dome too. If they were to have him right now though the way this team is constructed and him, although on the downside, would have been very interesting though. And possibly a lot of fun.

Pure nonsense, the fact is the Ryan style of defense has never worked long term in the NFL, you can run all the exotic blitz packages you like but sooner or later the book is written on how to counter it.

Irish Jet Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 Brees was already brilliant in San Diego ffs. He would have been successful with Maxman as his HC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
