Scott Dierking Posted December 26, 2014 Author Share Posted December 26, 2014 Change that to QB and there's some truth to that whether you want to admit it or not. We were a QB away from at least 1 SB, maybe 2 The history revisionist ideas are always the strongest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CTM Posted December 26, 2014 Share Posted December 26, 2014 The history revisionist ideas are always the strongest. Yes, it's a very large leap to think that in 2009 when we had by far the best defense in football and a strong running game that we'd have been a better team with a QB that wasn't one of the worst in football Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The four-time MVP threw three touchdown passes and the Colts rallied from an 11-point, first-half deficit to beat the New York Jets 30-17 Sunday in the AFC championship game.

Yes, the fact that we had 100 yards of offense in the 2nd half when game was in doubt, punted 3 times in a row followed by an INT and scored 0 points was on the D..

CTM Posted December 26, 2014 Share Posted December 26, 2014 Thank goodness all this Teflon Rex crap comes to end in 2014. I am not a teflon Rex guy, I very vocally wanted him fired 2 years ago and want him fired now.. I am simply saying that it's nonsensical that people suggest he wasn't hampered by drafting terrible QB's.. There isn't a coach in football that wins consistently without a strong QB, that's just the reality of today's NFL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jetrider Posted December 26, 2014 Share Posted December 26, 2014 Tanny never should have given Favre his release... Favre was no savior. He was a turnover, bad decision maker in clutch time with a little more glitz. By the time that the Jets got him, he was worn goods. Favre was texting dicks and throwing picks. It was sad (not really) to see him helped off the field every week by trainers his second year in Minnesota. He looked 60 years old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j4jets Posted December 26, 2014 Share Posted December 26, 2014 I hate Rex as the coach of my team, but the one thing he's done consistently well is face the media and hold his poise even in those rare instances where they pushed him. The lone exception was his weird walking-backwards presser. His comportment during these times is 98% of the reason the local hacks have spared him to this point. After he's fired, you'll start seeing the articles talking about his great and many failings. I think you'd hear more about the next HC sucking and then comparing him to Rex.

jack48 Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 I will not miss Rex. I want my head coach to be a buttoned down professional, not a clown like Rex, or a phony like Herm, or a mad scientist like Mangini. Can we get somebody in here who actually behaves like a grown man? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ex-Rex Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 In Rex's defense John Idzik the GM was hired to sign free agents and draft better players Idzik did none of this Rex coached the players he was provided. Did Rex choose Tony Sparano and MM as OCs. Lay some of the blame on Rex Ryan but not all of the blame for the demise of the team that made it to the AFC Championship game 2 times in a row with Rex as the head coach. Rex Ryan is a good guy I've met him numerous times and have had great conversation with a really decent person. Yeah and the old saying is 'nice guys finish last' Where are the Jets by the way? I don't give a rats ass if Rex is the finest person in the free world he is a lousy HC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He will make more of a mess there than they started with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
