BREAKING: Rex Ryan To INTERVIEW WIth The New York Jets For Head Coach

[@mizzo9]

If Rex can bring in a great OC, I’m all in. A coach that genuinely loves the team and is angry after a loss. This team will always be a circus so just embrace it and GO JETS!

[@skatergrl13]

Call me crazy but I absolutely want Rex Ryan, mainly because he has something that the Jets (or any other team) will almost never have again. And that's genuine love, passion, and desire to win games AS a Jet. Like how can we pass up on that.

[@RobertFoley-b7c]

Ian you are right! Rex has great passion for the Jets which no other applicant does!

[@Hondadad]

I want Rex Ryan , he is genuinely going to give it his all 100%

Ian, you nailed it about Rex. We need that enthusiasm. We haven't had that since Rex left.

if u want experience and culture, after vrable its rex ryan then jon gruden... i dont see anybody else out there... as a neutral casual nfl fan, i want rex ryan for the jets... for the entertainment value!!!

[@HappyEddyMcGuire]

💯% Ian! Remember, Saleh was asked in London by a reporter, "Why, should I be a Jets fan?" And it stumped Saleh. That told ya everything. Rex woulda been like us answering it. He loves the Jets. Same with Damien Woody and Bart. Tannybaum has actually petulantly diss'd them often.

[@TheGodDamnJets87]

The Parcells and Rex years were the best jets years of my life. Pure energy and excitement. Rex bleeds green and that speaks volumes. If rex can hire the right OC then get it done!

[@GrinchMobJets4Life]

Vrabel and Rex together would be MONSTROUS! Highly doubt it'll happen, but Rex as our DC with Vrabel as our HC would wreak absolute mayhem on the league

[@nathanroller4746]

[@WW3_Soon]

Rex’s goal is HC or bust. He will not settle for less

[@GrinchMobJets4Life]

He loves the Jets so much that I believe he will take any job that is offered to him just to get back in the building

[@nathanroller4746]

[@MyDam18]

Rex as the head Vrable is at best a linebacker coach..For the last time this man is not a good coach.

[@lucasbraga5552]

What I loved about Rex was when we had to win, or when we were expected to win, we won. Win and your in against Cincy, the Jets now would choke that game, with Rex we killed them 37-0, we were more than a respectable team with him

[@raysurx2010]

Exactly! With a great offensive coach, Rex would be the perfect HC!

[@alexandercohen433]

I never wanted Rex fired. He truly loves this franchise / fan base and knows how special it is when we are good. No coach we can hire will have more invested in this team then him. BRING BACK SEXY REXY! All that being said....I can not believe we are interviewing head coaches without a GM. We truly are the biggest joke of a franchise in sports history.

[@Bobby-k5k]

Great points Ian. I liked how you gave a good look at both sides, the Pros and cons.

[@JetsCentral]

Always!

[@ryun9438]

I want Rex if we can’t get vrabel. They both have the passion we need

[@BillySBC]

Very probably going to be the next returning Headcoach of the New York Jets. This team needs his fire and fight and it's going to get it. Now find us the best OC to go along with him and let's get back into the Playoffs and beyond. GO JETS!

[@Tonellacam]

your ulbrich impression was spot on !!

[@RobertFoley-b7c]

Please hire Rex!!

[@Damage_Inc_1986]

Rex would take the job today. Hopefully, they ask him about his OC candidates during the interview. Because that will be the most important hire next season. I believe Rex will reach out to Bart Scott for the assistant HC or DC positions if he gets the job.

[@Regantdarcy]

I wouldn't mind at all if Rex returned. Despite how his time as a Jets coach ended, he not only was the last Jets coach to get us to the playoffs, he coached us to back to back AFC Championships. Thats never happened in my lifetime. Rex is one of us. He LOVES the NY Jets & he WANTS to be HC. That goes a long way. We desperately need that kind of passion right now. We need accountability & energy. Rex can bring those qualities back. He's not gonna take any shit. I'm not worried about how he'll handle the NY Press. More than any other potential head coach, Rex can handle the NY press. Our Defense would flourish again under Rex. He plays smash mouth physical football. If we get a good OC & GM, I think our team would be feared again. I don't know if Rex will get the job, but if he does, I'd be excited. Lets Go Jets! 👊 💥 🏈

[@beefy1728]

😂😂😂

[@Regantdarcy]

@ Another Rex hater who thinks they know better. Gimme a break. You know diddly squat. Like every other fan watching from their couch. We're all just guessing. But the fact is Rex was the last coach to get us to the playoffs and the ONLY coach in my lifetime to get us to back to back AFC Championships. So to quote Tom Cruise from Tropic Thunder, "All you Rex haters out there can take a giant step backwards and F#@k your own face! 😆

Of all the candidates he sure does CARE about the jets differently compared to the other coaches. The jets mean something to him, I don’t think it would hurt to bring him back.

[@tonyalexio5823]

Bring back Rex and Win 🏆 😊

[@rashondemond]

Said it before and I’ll say it again. Whatever that soft stuff is going on with the defense including Sauce tackling, he’ll have that fixed asap! My only thing with Rex is he’ll have to get an offensive mastermind so he don’t have to worry on that side of the ball and don’t have to focus so much on it.

[@miguelpadilla31]

Rex should come back as a consultant to help build the Jets culture. I feel he would be more impactful. Vrabel would be a good call for HC. I'm clueless as to who could be GM. Honestly I dont care who they hire as long as they can turn it around.

[@Latino65-u7p]

Ian, you are 100% right. He's the only guy in our corner. It's become too easy for lazy reporters to hammer the #Jets for clicks. If we dont get our top three coaches, we should hire Rex.

[@CommackMark]

I dont understand the negative thinking about hiring Rex. His passion is genuine. In this case hiring someone who wants the job and loves the team...as opposed to just an opportunity for advancing their careers or getting a paycheck... not many want the job... Rex does.... I would hire Rex.

[@rmac4008]

Even if Rex doesn't get the head coach job, make him the assistant head coach. That guy knows how to keep a boot in the players' asses!!! He would motivate them and help the head coach and the rest of the staff keep players focused. Rex could quickly help with the personnel issues, scouting, and what the Jet's culture is supposed to be instead of what it is. Also, if the next head coach has problems and gets fired, Rex is an excellent backup plan. It's a win-win that doesn't cost much but could have a high payoff.

[@AnthonyXworld]

Rex Ryan’s would be an awesome hire but he needs a strong GM that can replenish the team with good young players and make good signings. That was not done with him after the team that Mangini build wore down. Rex also needs an OC that is not a push over and knows how to be creative

[@ziobruno9324]

[@nangaeboko6710]

This is basically a “ Due Diligence “ interview “… can’t wait until Flores is interviewed..

[@JohnUSA7]

I heard that Ryan's interview with the Jets went great. Lets see what develops. So far no news about our new GM.

[@striiids]

Felt like Saleh, Ulbrich, and JD gave in to the Jets “curse”. I feel like I’ve heard them mention it on more than one occasion. Like they didn’t truly believe they could turn things around. Say what you will about Rex, but he genuinely believes in this team and that he’s the guy to get it done.

[@CommackMark]

I want a coach that thinks outside the box. If it makes sense to play a 3 4 defense this week with deep safety coverage...thats what we will do. Next weeks opponent if we need to play 4 3 defense with close in safety coverage to fill in the line backing thats what we will do. Each game has a strategy to adjust to our opponent. Adjusting the defense and offense each game and each half. Some one who understands abd can adapt not only to the opponent but to the strength of our talent. Is Rex that guy? Don't know. But I do love Rex. He was my favorite coach by far.

[@JohnDrummondPhoto]

I admire Rex's passion. I wonder though, how in-tune he is to today's NFL offense with its emphasis on passing. "Ground and pound" won't work today. Neither will relentless blitzing, which the NFL caught onto after a year or two of his last term. Rex would need a very strong OC who will develop a young QB, not just train him to stay out of the defense's way.

[@TheGaryNinja]

The thing I like about Rex is that it's more than just a pay check. He wants to win and it's in his DNA. It's beyond Xs and Os for him. He wins because he imposes his will on other teams.

[@se7enity648]

We need a HC that can revitalise a disheartened fan base, Rex can do that. We need to find the one thing that made us fans in the first place.

[@M_Duhamel]

John Middlekauf has said it’s a forgone conclusion to him Rex Ryan will be the next HC based on the fact the 33rd team is guiding this and Mike Tannenbaum’s relationship w Rex.

[@Gamerguy-501]

I hope Rex gets it!! I wasn’t a Jets fan growing up as a kid, I was ofc a GB fan but Rex though, he was one of my favorites!!!!! That guy had a chip on his shoulder! That man brought them to 2 AFC championships!!! Sure it ended ugly with the Jets and the Bills but the guy has a huge passion for the Jets!!! He’s your guy’s “Bill Belicheck” kinda guy when Bill had a deep passion for the Patriots! But Rex, if I’m not mistaken, he’s been a fan for over 50 years? Tell me if I’m wrong, but for those that are saying “I don’t want Rex. I don’t think he’s good, etc” he’s the best Jets coach they’ve had in decades. But if they had Vrabel and Rex Ryan… the Jets could be a legit problem

I love the defense he runs my man beat Brady, Manning, Rivers, during Money time so I know for a fact nothing has passed him bye.

[@MtaWinstonG]

I seen a current interview of him and he was explaining the changes he would do the number 1 thing and first thing he said is he would change the offense amd bring a more modern offense because what we are running he said its outdated and that shows me hes paying attention to todays NFL and now he knows all the mistakes he made so if hes picked im all for it

[@aleck6583]

He's not a .500 coach, his last season being considered a half decent coach was literally 2011. This is a non-discussion if we actually want the franchise to CHANGE for the BETTER. Go get new blood, Rex doesn't have a monopoly on passion. Frankly, if we are going defense for the HC then you hire Aaron Glenn, he's young, passionate, and has helped lead a team with over 20 guys on IR to an incredible season. The entire lions staff embodies what it means to reflect on the bad decisions of the past and LEARN from them.

[@DannyMiller-e7l]

Aaron Glenn is nothing without that lions roster

[@DannyMiller-e7l]

Dude what he did for the jets is far greater than 99% of coaches

[@skatergrl13]

He actually does have a monopoly for passion, at least passion for the Jets

[@jaybird8192]

Vrabel is still my #1 choice, but I wouldn't mind Rex 2.0 if we can't get Vrabel!

[@anthonyr.8923]

i firmly believe that a lot of people are under estimating Rex. Yes Rex has been away from the game fora while, but i to believe that he's more than capable to saddle up & do it again. I believe his coaching acumen has evolved & he'll have a better coaching staff. Rex will have the player's ears, he'll get the most out of these guys. Rex is more than, " ..let's go eat a damn snack..."

[@edthered1971]

Hi ian what’s your gut reaction as to who is going to be the new head coach?

[@beefy1728]

I would only accept Rex as DC, not as HC. Gruden, Vrabel, or someone with previous head coaching experience as HC preferred. Rex Ryan, like Robert Saleh, does not hold players accountable. The culture will not improve with Rex as HC. They need a hard disciplinarian as HC. Sean Payton, Bill Belichick, Mike Vrabel, Bill Parcells, Jimmy Johnson, Eric Mangini; these coaches are examples of hard disciplinarians.

[@arneluders-xv2hp]

Wouldn't it be ironic, if he leeds us back to Success? The Man who did it before.Would be my Third favourite Option after Vrabel and Kingsbury.

[@frankamaya8024]

Love Rex, Love his passion. He actually had a really good coaching staff when he was here BUT he hasn’t coached in almost a decade. If he had taken a DC position prior to this and stayed in the game I’d be open to it. Plus ppl forget how abysmal The Jets were after those AFC Championship runs.

[@MVonUtube]

[@DannyHoldStatenislandny]

Whats up Ian. Im Glad he's getting the Interview. Not sure if he's our guy but i wouldnt be mad if he got another shot. There's more attractive candidates out there but ur right this man bleeds green

[@johngregoryhill5496]

First of all let me say it like Rex: He ain’t coming in to interview so he can kiss Vrabel’s rings. It’s HC or nothing at all. A Rex Ryan who has had time to reflect & observe the new NFL & is still a ground & pound practitioner at heart could bring SB championships to the Jets. At least they’ll be grunt tough.
