Integrity28 Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 So whose fault was it when the 16-0,13-3 Pats lost Bowls to the 10-6,9-7 Giants?? Was the right tone not set by BB?? When the 18-0 Patriots lost to the Giants, yes. That Patriots team talked for 2 weeks like the game was already won, they didn't take their opponent seriously and they lost. It was extremely out-of-character for a BB coached team. I think in the 2nd SB, the Giants were just the better team that day, it had less to do with emotional preparation. Not all games are decided by emotional stability, but there are a substantial amount of games over the 6 years where Rex brought this team into where it was plain as day the Jets were able to out-play their opponent, but they weren't up for the game for whatever reason. In contrast, there have been times where they ride an emotional high for 60 minutes and upset a typically dominant Patriots team. This tells me there is not emotional stability, that opponents aren't looked at as equals, and that the legend of Rex the master motivator is only situationally relevant. A master motivator doesn't get drubbed the way Rex's teams have over the years in losses to inferior teams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BP Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 Too bad Rex could nit develop that type of QB This may come as a bit of a surprise for some, but coaches should develop players also and mold them. Not just take what is given them, and throw them on teh field. The way that BB managed TB was a progression. He did not just throw him out there and start slinging. TB was very much a "game manager" when TB won a SB his first year as a starter. The snow game against the Raiders for example? Brady was throwing a million screen passes in that game..Rex would have had Geno take 7 step drops in the snow on 3rd and long. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Dierking Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 Sav- Does this make it sound like Rex had set the right "tone"? http://nesn.com/2011/01/darrelle-revis-says-jets-were-too-relaxed-against-steelers-after-defeating-patriots-in-playoffs/ Every Patriots fan cringed as they watched the Jets' players soar across the field at Gillette Stadium, reveling in the playoff victory over their AFC East rivals. They won the game, so they were entitled to a celebration. According to Darrelle Revis, however, that happy buzz from New England lingered a bit too long in the Jets' locker room and affected their play against the Steelers. Revis said that the Jets were too "relaxed" in the AFC Championship, because of the residual effects from the win over the Pats, ESPN.com reports. "I think … you could say that," Revis said of the team letdown after the divisional win. "Yeah, you could say that. On people's body language, you can kind of see guys just relaxed. Guys are relaxed and didn't know what was at stake. That's why we came out so flat and we didn't finish strong." The Jets were stunned by the Steelers in the first half of last Sunday's game, as a solid running effort by Pittsburgh gave them a 24-3 lead heading into halftime. The Jets tried to rebound with a few motivational speeches in the locker room, which helped, but it wasn't enough as the Steelers came away with the 24-19 victory, and the bid to the Super Bowl. Revis, along with Jets tackle D'Brickashaw Ferguson have one more week of football as they will be playing for the AFC under Bill Belichick at the Pro Bowl in Honolulu on Jan. 30.

southparkcpa Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 I noticed you didn't answer the question about BB's tone?? And where was the Jet D ranked after Rex took over and was the running game not better?? Rex had his faults no doubt but to say there was never any improvement in any phase of the team is your Rex hate talking.. The 2010 team was never improved upon in my view. That was our peak. From there, the team went downhill. Our D was a statistical Defense. Look at the score of games..we gave up points like a french whore gives up her underwear. We couldnt stop Tim Tebow when it mattered for Goodness sake. Yeah I know, he beat the Steelers too. Ill save you the key strokes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Integrity28 Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 Totally agreed. REX, IMO, will be same ole rex no matter where he goes. He takes the job with the Falcons, assuming the the Saints are the best team in that division, Pathers and Atlanta are equals, and Tampa sucks. ... he'll get them to psyched enough to upset the Saints once a year while splitting with them, he'll lose both games to the Panthers because they better at ground and pound than Rex, then he'll probably split with the Bucs, losing at least one to them in epic let-down fashion.

Integrity28 Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 Possibly. But, great coaches can lose big games and had their teams ready to play. FACT-Players said that that the Jets were flat when they faced the Steelers in the AFCCG. This. Rex's acolytes like to tout the 2 appearances in AFCC games, but never want to deal with how poorly the Jets showed in those games. Showing up "flat" to the Steelers was a joke, and should have prompted Rex's firing much sooner than 6 years into a debacle. Honestly, we would have been blown out of the water completely vs. the Colts, if it hadn't been for a stellar individual effort by Shonn Greene for the first half of that game before he got hurt. Rex had NO answers for Peyton's 4th and 5th WRs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Savage69 Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 Where? I did find this... Bill Parcells certainly should be envious of where New York Jets head coach Rex Ryan is this weekend -- one victory away from the Super Bowl. Parcells has been there a few times. He took three teams to the Super Bowl. He won a pair with the New York Giants and lost another with the New England Patriots. Parcells has navigated his share of treacherous postseason games. But Parcells, now a consultant with the Miami Dolphins, doesn't covet Ryan's road. If the Jets do reach the Super Bowl, then they will have beaten Peyton Manning in Lucas Oil Stadium, Tom Brady in Gillette Stadium and Ben Roethlisberger at Heinz Field (twice in a month). "I can't say I've ever faced three in a row like that," Parcells told me by phone from South Florida.

Makes me even more mad at how the Jets prepped that week: A week earlier, the New York Jets carried on as though they'd won the Super Bowl. They went into Gillette Stadium and did the unfathomable. They made Tom Brady look average and destroyed the mighty New England Patriots a month after losing to them 45-3 on the same grounds. Championship Round Coverage • Graham: Jets emotionally tapped out • Walker: Mendenhall's second chance • Seifert: Ted Thompson vindicated • Clayton: Last Call • Packers-Bears Live replay • Jets-Steelers Live replay The Jets jumped into the stands to cavort with their fans, the Patriots' faithful having filed through the exits long before. The Jets ran around with their arms outstretched like airplanes. Braylon Edwards did a roundhouse backflip. Patriots receiverDeion Branch called them "classless." You half expected to hear somebody in green and white exclaim "I'm going to Disney World!" to signal the end of the season. Of course, the Super Bowl used to be followed with a carefree exhibition where players revel in their success and go through the motions. Fittingly, the Jets followed up their personal Super Bowl with a performance worthy of the Pro Bowl -- not in terms of star power, but with a lack of purpose. For the first 30 minutes of Sunday night's AFC Championship Game against the Pittsburgh Steelers at Heinz Field, the Jets played like they were still hung over from their victory in Foxborough, Mass. The Jets were flatter than old champagne through the first half and watched passively as the Steelers scored the first 24 points. The Jets finally snapped to attention at the intermission and dominated the Steelers for much of the second half. But the Jets couldn't overcome their horrible two quarters and lost 24-19. For the second season under Rex Ryan, they were eliminated one step short of the Super Bowl. But the Jets sure didn't play like they'd been there before -- not in the first half anyway. "No determination, no focus in every single phase," Jets safety James Ihedigbo muttered. "It just wasn't us. It wasn't New York Jet football." Perhaps it's one of those unexplained sports phenomena. The Jets certainly knew the importance of Sunday's game. One more victory and they were headed to the Super Bowl. But they didn't answer the call. Instead, there was a dial tone. "We knew what was on the line," Jets linebacker David Harris said. "I don't know what to say." To a man, the Jets were unable to explain their inability to compete in the first half. Steelers running back Rashard Mendenhall left cleat marks all over the defense. Their poor tackling was unforgivable. Mendenhall had 95 yards and a touchdown before halftime. The Steelers dictated time of possession, keeping the ball for 21 minutes, 4 seconds. Last week, Jets linebacker Bart Scott ridiculed the Patriots' defense for not being able to stop a nosebleed. Against the Steelers, the Jets couldn't patch a paper cut with a roll of duct tape. The Jets' offense, meanwhile, gained 1 rushing yard by halftime. LaDainian Tomlinson had two carries for 1 yard. Shonn Greene had two carries for 4 yards. "We didn't step on the field, playing the way we want to play," Harris said. "They jumped on us, had us on our heels." The Jets played like they were emotionally spent, which is how they prepared for the game, too. Unlike the first two rounds of the playoffs, the Jets displayed almost none of their distinctive spunk. They went from targeting Peyton Manning and Brady and Wes Welker to a deferential tone for the Steelers. Jets defensive lineman Trevor Pryce said it was an "honor and a privilege to play against" Ben Roethlisberger. There was no edge throughout the week at the Jets' training facility in Florham Park, N.J. The Jets insisted they'd be ready. They clearly were not.
