Today’s game Exhibit A why Rex should be brought back


Recommended Posts

Rex wouldn’t need any major signings or high draft picks to fix this defense.  He took a career JAG who was barely in the NFL and made him one of the best Nose Tackles in the league for several years.  He would instill a nastiness and identity into the defense and rehabilitate Sauce.

 

Rex and Cam in 2025 let’s go.

It’s wierd.  Rex gets universally mocked by jets fans yet he was .500 or better in all but 2 seasons of his tenure.  We haven’t been .500 or better in almost ten years but it’s Rex who sucks
He was ridiculous here ... Showed extreme deference towards vets, committed snafu after snafu and ran Mangini's roster into the ground.

you all need to come to terms with that Rex is probably the best we could get.

firing Saleh at 2-3 with 1st place on the line was so bad in so many ways. the biggest is now good HCs or good OCs will not want to come here.

we have a owner who could fire you after a 2 game losing streak 5 games into a season.

all that talk of Saleh finally getting a QB got only 5 games with Rodgers.

i think Rex is the best we are going to get. he is the only one who wants to be here.

Not true. QW and his brother can both play in a 3-4.  McDonald’s size is prototypical 3-4 OLB

McDonald would get eaten alive as a 34 OLB. There's no nose tackle. QW skillset would be wasted at 34 DE.

This.

 

all this masturbatory talk about Vrabel and Ben Johnson is fantasy land.  Woody is a disaster nobody wants to work for him Rex is the best coach we can get and he actually can manage Woody’s stupidity (to an extent)

Yeah it was already likely but every loss brings us closer to a Sexy Rexy Reunion.

I don't hate it because I'm sure some rando hire by the Wiener & Wiener Brothers would be even worse.

I disagree.  Chris Johnson knows how to pick brilliant offensive coaches.

You don’t know that and we would have an entire offseason to get a Nose Tackle. 

Do you know how hard it is to find 1 good NT let alone multiple? 

The responsibility of the 34 OLB is to set the edge. You think Will McD can do that? Reality is Clemons and JJ are more prototypical 34 OLBs. WmD will get manhandled

Yeah we did it every year between 2008-2016.  Jenkins, Pouha, Snacks.  Pouha was a 3rd round pick.  Snacks an undrafted free agent.  And Jenkins we traded a late rd pick for.  
 

Like you said, impossible.

Don’t worry.  Ben Johnson is going to turn down 5 better head coaching offers with way better run organizations to come here.  He is also bringing Penei Sewell and Amon Ra St Brown with him.

Rex is Woody's looks-match (to all you red pillers out there @T0mShane). He literally cannot do better, sample size of 8.
