Just a thought...

nyjints235 : 11/24/2014 3:08 pm
This is the farthest thing from a 'Giants' move and it most likely won't happen, but I'm just stating this because our defense needs help badly.
If Rex Ryan does get fired after this year, I feel like it would be a huge upgrade to hire him as our defensive coordinator. Fewell needs to go and Rex has shown that he knows how to coach a defense. I know Rex hates the Giants and we all hate him, but he can definitely change our defense around drastically. It would also be a good way for him to revive his coaching career after his shitty tenure with the Jets recently.
I hate Rex just as much as everyone else but he can turn this dreadful defense into a good one. Don't hate on me for throwing this out there, I'm just saying it could potentially be a great move.

he runs a 3-4
Cause the 4-3 has been working with Fewell lately...

Great.

Just find us multiple..... repeat, multiple, even more than what we currently need, quality linebackers and we are good to go.
That's where Rex comes in

He can turn decent linebackers into good ones and he also knows how to draft defensive players.

The problem isn't Fewell. It is coughlin won't want to run a 3-4
Coughlin's probably on his way out this year

So we're going to need to hire a new head coach

Don't say that here, you'll be run off the boards.
I'm a huge fan of Coughlin  
nyjints235 : 11/24/2014 3:29 pm : link
and can't thank him enough for what he's done with this organization, but have you been watching the Giants lately? I hate to say it but all signs point towards Coughlin leaving after this year.

I have. I'm the head of the fire coughlin train. There is fierce resistance on this board though. People hold coughlin above the team here
im all for it the way our defense has been gutted year over year.

He runs everything  
moespree : 11/24/2014 3:39 pm : link
Before we start on the he only runs a 3-4 base thing it isn't true. He runs all kinds of different looks during a game including the 46 at times which needs 4-3 personnel, and also he ran a 4-3 base for more than one season in Baltimore.

I don't think it's an outrageous idea at all. Left alone to worry about the defensive gameplan each week and not have to even think about head coaching duties, Rex was and probably still would be one of the best defensive coordinators in the sport. He's superior to his brother and maybe even his father as well. At least in my opinion.
I think it's an outrageous idea, because  
Mark C : 11/24/2014 4:27 pm : link
it's the same town and the same stadium, and he's essentially been working in the same building with Coughlin all these years as an equal. Rex will probably be someone's DC immediately after he gets fired by the Jets, but it won't be the Giants.
Our current personnel sucks for both 3-4 and 4-3  
BeerFridge : 11/24/2014 4:29 pm : link
so, there's really no problem switching now.
Remember this!

J.C could turn water into wine, but T.C. is only human and can't turn crap into gold.
4 weeks ago, you could have entertained that thought.

Rex is returning to the Jets. They will likely win 3 or 4 more games and the players are starting to go public with their pro-Rex sentiment. Plus the fans are very pro-Rex. They still buy into the 2009-10 Rex.
