Opinions on Rex Ryan coming back as HC?

[Nixhead]

I wouldn’t hate it. He had his teams motivated game in game out. He would surround himself with very good coaches. We have a very good defense for him to work with. If you fire Saleh you better have a deal with an experienced Head Coach lined up. Our offenses did better than they are now under Rex. Plenty of negatives though also.  

[Bungaman]

No.

3 Opinions:

1. NO

2. Hell no

3. F&*k NO!!!

 

[kmnj]

that ship has sailed but given the choice I would take Rex every day and twice on Sunday vs Saleh who  is awful

 

[slimjasi]

Well, offense is our big problem, so Rex should definitely be a consideration

 

good thought

[Beerfish]

We should offer Tampa a 1st and a 3rd to get todd Bowles back

[BurntDice]

No he’s been out of the league for too long. Same as Bill Cower 

[Gen X Jet]

Great, we'll go from a 1940's offense to a 1950's offense.

Yeah, Rex Ryan had his teams so motivated that he went 46-50 as HC and led a team that no-showed in the first half against the Steelers in the AFC Championship game.

No.

We need someone who knows how to coach modern football. Next year Rodgers will coach the offense and saleh does fine with the defense

This is a truly stupid idea.  Still considerably better idea than Jon Gruden IMO.

Man, people have just totally forgotten everything that happened after 2010, huh

From a purely football perspective, I think Gruden would be a great hire.

How about Joe Gibbs?  He quit the NFL for auto-racing but came back years later and took the awful Washington franchise back to the post-season.  I say this as it applies to Bill Cowher, btw.  (not to Rex, who I don't want back).

No.

He was still celebrating the Patriots win one day before the Steelers game.

Just try offensive minded head coaches for ******* once!!! Even first time coordinators. At least they’ll be on the right side of the ball.

I don't know much about what happened with Jon Gruden - is he a viable NFL HC or is he done? 

[mrcoops]

Rex can be DC when Woody hands the keys to the franchise to his next HC hire, Brian Schottenheimer.

[JetsFanatic]

How many times are we going to discuss something that will never happen?

Even if Woody decides to make a change, Rex would not be in the running.

People get nostalgic about our last playoff run, but yearning for Rex is pretty wild

It was super fun! But immediately after, a bunch of stuff happened that was not so fun.

[Adoni Beast]

I love Rex, but I'm not even sure I'd want him back as the defensive coordinator.

Rex was such a bozo.  Though Saleh feels like the poor man's version of Rex because at least Rex had 2 great post-season runs.

Why?  When was the last time that he did a good job?  You can listen to him on television and you know his genius status is a ******* joke.

He was done before Oakland hired him.  Then a bunch of stuff came out that completely shamed him.  Even if you think he is being blackballed for "outing the commissioner," how does it help us to take on the commissioner?

[y2k8]

 

Even if you really thought Rex Ryan could be an effective HC in today's game, you'd have to factor how on earth he would assemble a quality coaching staff. 

Rex is doing a great job being what he was always meant to be, a TV talking head.  He should keep doing that for as long as can. 

[Rangers9]

Not him!

[Joe W. Namath]

Rex Ryan?  HAHHHHAHAHAAHAHAHHHA

Thanks for the laugh.

[ZachStepdad]

Woody bring him back like Steinbrenner and Billy Martin. I know my Yankees history

Okay, Rex is an experienced head coach who did get his teams motivated but he also knows very little about offense.  His succeeded because he had a very good oline with brick, mangold, colon, woody, et al.  People seem to forget his jets team was also 4-7 in 2009 and finished 9-7 to sneak into the playoffs.

He's won a Super Bowl.  And who knows how his tenure with the Raiders would've gone had he had more time.

Again, of the guys we can actually get to come here, I'm not sure how much better we can do than him (again, from a purely football perspective).

The other guy that I'd be interested in would be Scott McCloughan, who was the Washington GM until IIRC they fired him for being a drunk.
