I am looking at the records, and as HCs, the Clowns had a better record under Smith than the Jets had under Ryan.

Mike Smith - 7 seasons - 5 winning seasons - 66-46 record - 4 playoff appearances
Rex Ryan - 6 seasons - 2 winning seasons - 46-50 record - 2 playoff appearances

Rex Ryan inherited a team with a winning record that had very good defensive players and a very good o-line, from Mangini's tenure.

Mike Smith inherited the post-Vick, post-Petrino Clowns.

Where do you see the better coaching?

Gotta look at more than records. At least IMO. Wonder who had the better staff?

Are you saying Smith had the better staff? If so, wouldn't that be another plus for Smith over Ryan, since Smith picked his staff??

I think Smith had a better staff later in his career and Rex earlier in his.

Ultimately, records dictate who's "better" but I think Rex is a better coach than Smitty. Guess only time will tell...
