nodimwithere Posted July 23, 2010 Share Posted July 23, 2010 No. 4. Sounds about right for Rex. If he wins a Super Bowl (which his old man never could, at least as a HC), he will jump up in the rankings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mentos Posted July 24, 2010 Share Posted July 24, 2010 Based on 1 season? Did you even bother to read the article? A guy who has never been a head coach in the NFL was voted 5th best NFL coach. Note "coach" as opposed to "head coach." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jetsfan80 Posted July 24, 2010 Share Posted July 24, 2010 Based on 1 season? 1 season where he took the Jets from a below average defense to, easily, the # 1 defense, and got to the AFC Title game with a rookie QB (which he helped the Ravens do the year before, with rookie QB Joe Flacco).

THE ILK Posted July 24, 2010 Share Posted July 24, 2010 Based on 1 season? No based on 109 seasons. Oh wait never-mind, that would be for the 7 championships in your sig. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Note "coach" as opposed to "head coach." I did. Are you saying if the Jets went 4-12 instead of 9-7 he would be #4? I doubt it. The Ravens D was just as effective without Rex and Bart. I am not saying he is not a good coach. He is, but putting him number 4 is premature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stoicsentry Posted July 25, 2010 Author Share Posted July 25, 2010 I did. Are you saying if the Jets went 4-12 instead of 9-7 he would be #4? I doubt it. No, and if Sean Payton went 6-10 obviously that would remove him from the running as well. The AFC championship appearance in his first season with the team didn't create Rex's cred, it built upon it. I notice how you say 9-7, rather than mention two playoff road wins in addition to that. The Ravens D was just as effective without Rex and Bart. The Patriots went 11-5 without Tom Brady. Does that mean Tom Brady did not contribute to their success? No way.

Mentos Posted July 25, 2010 Share Posted July 25, 2010 I did. You did not read it. If you did, you would not have written, "Based on 1 season? :rolleyes:" Ryan's 11-win season with the Jets in 2009 assuredly got him into the top 5 here, but if this list was only about head coaching, then Ryan's lone season as a head coach would not have put him on this list.

The Patriots went 11-5 without Tom Brady. Does that mean Tom Brady did not contribute to their success? No way. Should I have mentioned that all the Rex ball washing would be non-existent if the Jets did not have two teams lay down and allow them in the playoffs? You did not read it. If you did, you would not have written, "Based on 1 season? :rolleyes:" Ryan's 11-win season with the Jets in 2009 assuredly got him into the top 5 here, but if this list was only about head coaching, then Ryan's lone season as a head coach would not have put him on this list. It did though. Did he invent some form of new 3-4 while a Raven DL and DC coach? No. He had success there, but their D was good prior to him becoming DC and has maintained since he left. Again, I am not saying he is not good, but his listing at 4 is a result of last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mentos Posted July 25, 2010 Share Posted July 25, 2010 Should I have mentioned that all the Rex ball washing would be non-existent if the Jets did not have two teams lay down and allow them in the playoffs? One team. The Colts. In Week 17, the Bengals got trounced with their regulars on the field. The coaching staff eventually took out most of the starters once the Bengals were down big because it was not a must win for them. It did though. Did he invent some form of new 3-4 while a Raven DL and DC coach? No.Nobody's invented anything new in the NFL for a long time now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
