Re: Rex Ryan to Atl

Not sure how I feel about this.

On the one hand, after some early success, the Jets fell hard under his watch.

On the other hand, Rob Ryan has never beaten his brother. That trend would need to stop ASAFP.

For their defense it's a good move. Their offense will suffer.

I don't see how this is an upgrade for them. He essentially IS Mike Smith, just louder and more brash. Defensive-minded coach who can't quite handle head coaching duties. Kind of a lateral move for them.

Re: Rex Ryan to Atl

Its a good move for them

They were a boring team with no personality, no reason to get excited about. Now they have some personality and will get a lot more attention. Maybe a few more prime time games and more press attention, which will attract some free agents.

On the field they may not be a whole lot better, but I do think its an upgrade over Mike Smith.

They will not get primetime games unless they start getting above .500. NBC does not give SNF games to teams 2 games below .500 unless it is the giants, cowboys.

I think we need to fire RR. It has to happen now.

Re: Rex Ryan to Atl

Well, we needed a worthy successor to Mike Smith. Rex may just work out!
