Would you want Rex Ryann as our DC?

You're talking big personnel turnover, and he's not a TC-type hire.

Most people realize he's a very good DC and would take him but he's not a guy the Giants would hire. It's never going to happen.

.

not.

I thin Rex Ryan is done as an DC. He's a head coach now and will probably get another gig as one.

Doubtful. No gm or owner will hire him again as a HC.

His reputation and proven track record of not understanding offense guarantees it

So tired of hearing about him being a guru and "exotic" blitzes. Wtf is an exotic blitz anyway? I don't recall anything Taylor did being considered exotic while it was more crrative than anything i've ever seen from DC's like Ryan.

Would never hire rex.

But there's no guarantee that Tom won't be forced into retirement just like Gilbride.

His biggest problem "not understanding offense" was his lack of a viable QB to run one. His offense might have looked pretty good with Eli running it.

not because of scheme though. Belichick was a 3-4 guy until he was a 4-3 guy and then he was a 3-4 guy again, and then he became a 4-3 guy. A lot of the defensive minds are versatile enough to be innovative with a scheme that maximizes the ability and skill set of their personnel.

I think Rex can probably do that.

I just think there would be a lot of distractions and it doesn't fit so much with TC from a style standpoint, forget about scheme.

No one from that family, Not ever.

and his presence would be too much of a distraction. I would like someone with his attitude and his mind, but Rex as a brand is too damaged IMO..

No doubt in my mind as the Jets are just horrific. They may end up with the 3rd or 4th pick in the draft.

Assuming TC is not canned at the end of the year and a whole new regime (Reese would be let go along with some of the scouting department) brought in, no way TC would hire Ryan.

My gut tells me Ryan may take a year off from football and re-evaluate before he signs as a DC somewhere in 2016. He will not be a HC again given his porous track record.

If not, would he go to DC somewhere?

I bet Mr. Mara feels the same way.

Before that happens.

And a zebra or two...

job. Coughlin would have to make that call and I think they get along from what i have seen. Hard to get rid of Fewell unless TC goes. Then who knows? A new GM and HC will be calling those shots.

I personally wouldn't want him. Wondering though who might be a good fit and available should the front office decide to make a change at DC.

as our DC in a heartbeat. That being said, I agree that there would need to be personnel changes to work with his scheme. But it'd be the first aggressive defensive scheme this team has ran since the 2007 Spags defense.

but he's an instant upgrade from Fewell. But it won't happen because of his big mouth.

No
No

I'd hate for another team in the division to hire him as a DC though...

see the Giants ever hiring Rex. Nope.

Anyone who thinks they can does not understand what this franchise stands for.

why would we want him?

with a typical Rex laugh and grin. It is Foolish not to play him.

Compared to the bum we have now.

This is one of the most talented defenses in the league but you wouldn't know that.

Fire the Fewell!!! Super Bowl titles will follow.

He is a perfect fit for Washington. Their D has been aweful for a while and Gruden didn't hire him. They have a 3-4 personelle. He would fit perfectly there and you know Snyder would love hiring the big name!

and would likely cause issues. Not a Coughlin or Giants type of guy, not a character guy.

a Rex Ryan defense got a stop when it mattered. This idea that he is a good DC is more perception than reality.

and a loudmouth and frankly, I'm not impressed by his defenses.

hiring Rex has just not been paying attention. As good a defensive mind as he seems to be, a Buffon like, damaged goods, ex Jet coach has about as much a chance of getting hired by the Giants as Buddy Ryan does.

:)

But he is a very good DC, definitely one of the best. His defenses are always one of the better in the league. This year, he's playing with scrubs at both CB positions. That might have something to do with their record and that's not even factoring in a turnover machine at QB.

I agree. It won't happen for many reasons, however, damn he would be a big time upgrade.

Is he a talented D Coordinator? I don't think there's any doubt he is. He would clearly be an upgrade over Fewell. So, yes, I'd take him in a minute, notwithstanding his history.

...I'd take anybody who's never even seen a football game.

But it won't happen. He's not a quiet gentleman type.

He a toe sucker. That's nasty.

Would not want him as DC or anything.

He is a fantastic DC. Anyone who says he is overrated is a hater

John Chavis, LSU instead.
