Rex Ryan already on my nerves

PrintAs you may or may not know, the Jets are the team I hate the most in the NFL. Some Dolphin fans will say they hate the Bills more because they prevented Dan Marino from reaching the Super Bowl as often as he should have. Some might hate the Patriots the most for, well, obvious reasons (cheaters, bandwagon fans, etc...). But I have and always will truly hate the Jets the most.
With that said, I never really hated one of the Jets' head coaches - at least for any reason other than he coached the team I hate most. But Rex Ryan is already on my sh*t list. I can't stand the guy. Just looking at him makes me want to find the nearest kitten and kick it (no, not literally - I don't harm animals; so don't get on my case, PETA).
Seriously, I think this guy needs to be slapped back into reality. He spoke at his introductory press conference in New York like he was the second coming of Christ. His over-confident words were only outdone by his arrogant smile and cocky demeanor.
Right off the bat, Ryan starts off with these words being his first public comments as Jets' head coach. After being introduced by owner Woody Johnson and receiving an applause, Ryan said:
"With all the cameras and all that, I was looking behind me for the new president. But I think we'll get to meet him in the next couple of years anyway."
That was immediately followed by another applause by the NY media. Yes, Rex Ryan is saying that the Jets will win a Super Bowl in the next couple of years, which would result in a trip to the White House to meet the president. But somebody might need to tell him that his quarterback is either Brett Favre (aka Mr. Interception) or Kellen Clemens - who is so bad he doesn't even get a nickname. But maybe Rex still hasn't popped in the 2008 film yet - so he might not realize just how far away the Jets are from contending for a Super Bowl.
You know, I think part of the reason why Ryan seems to cocky is because he hasn't realized yet that he doesn't have the kind of defense he had in Baltimore. Perhaps somebody should let him in on that little nugget of information. In fact, Ryan even began making statements like this at the press conference:
"This is a great marriage right here, I can honestly say. The style of defense that we're gonna play - with our fans - wooo, it's gonna be rough on people. In Baltimore, it was pretty rough on people. This year, nobody scored more than 13 points against us at home."
Two things. One - since when were Jet fans such great fans? These are the same people who cheered when then Jet QB Chad Pennington got hurt and had to be replaced. Two - what do statistics from when he was in Baltimore have to do with how he'll perform in New York? Just because a coordinator had great success with one team - one with a lot of talent - doesn't mean he'll have success as head coach of a different team. We saw that first-hand with Cam Cameron. Great success in San Diego. He leaves and comes to Miami, where the talent level wasn't close, and the offense still struggles. Am I missing something? Do the Jets have players like Ray Lewis, Terrell Suggs, Bart Scott, Ed Reed, and Haloti Ngata? Not even close.
Of course, one thing Ryan is going to bring to the Jets will likely be their physical, borderline dirty play. Said Ryan:
"We're gonna take care of each other. The players will have each other's backs. You take a swipe at one of ours and we'll take a swipe at two of yours. And that's just the way this game is gonna be played."
If I'm Tony Sparano, I'm encouraging my players to take some swipes at the Jets now. After all, it's always the guy who retaliates who gets caught. If Ryan plans on teaching his team to be undisciplined aggressors who will have a tendency to be overzealous, might as well use that knowledge to our advantage.
One thing is for sure. While Tony Sparano believes in the "when we win, we're humble" philosophy, Rex Ryan clearly prefers the "I'm going to be a cocky, arrogant jackass before I even prove I can win anything without my stars in Baltimore" philosophy - as proven by this quote:
"The message to the rest of the league is, hey, the Jets are coming, and we're going to give you everything we got. And I think that's going to be more than you can handle."
Really? More than Tony Sparano and his team can handle? Bring it, Rexy. Just bring it.
The guy clearly likes to run his mouth. Some might like their head coach to be overly confident and arrogant. I don't. And it's going to make it that much more fun to watch the Jets crumble - as they tend to do - during the course of the season.

I saw that crap on TV today… the guy is a blithering idiot. Not a single person in the Jets organization can see how screwed that whole franchise is. Their average player age is like 42, they have no young talent whatsoever, and as SOON as Brett Favre leaves, they will be a six win team. The Jets are a joke, and I’m going to enjoy laughing at their misfortune for the next 5-8 years.
J E T S.... well suck, you know..
Jets are my most hated team as well. I hope Ryan ends up canned like Mangina and takes this franchise spiraling even further….

Would be saying worse things
when we did a Cam Cam repeat. We got the right man in Sparano.
Take care of the little things, and the big things will take care of themselves.
For the Record Matt...
You know what grinds my gears? That “your boy” Jake Long was picked to the pro bowl over Ryan Clady. He gave up one half sack. That’s Lance Armstrong numbers!
LOL.........thats just cruel
but man thats funny.

Miami Dolphins 2008 AFC East Divison Champions
I do hate them but they will be alright next season
While I do hate the Jets just as much as you I am worried about them as a team next season.
Here are a couple of reasons why .. first they have been playing a 3-4 Defense for the past couple of years and they were good last season until Favre started throwing INT’s and that put the team in a bad position. This is the same type of Defense that they played in Balitmore .. while they don’t have the same talent they do have decent talent with players like Jenkins, Pace, Revis to name a few. They do have young talent on the O-line and a good run game .. this is something they can lean on with a young QB whomever that maybe. They beat some great teams last season which means they might just need a change at coach for the “easy” game loses.
Matty I love your take on Ryan as a coach/person and from what I remember his dad wasn’t much different .. but just because this guy is an ass is doesn’t mean this team wont be ready next season. Our season will probably be very difficult next year and I am happy that we are on the rise to handle these tough games .. I predict we will split the season series once again
Remember this is Buddy Ryan son
And as the saying goes, the fruit don’t fall to far from the tree, ha!

This post was phenomenal
I’m ready to start a fight with anyone who walks by wearing green, right now.
’It’s gonna be rough on people.’ Yeah it will – rough on your arrogant backside when the NY press starts feeding your ass into their bacon slider. What a douche.
Just bring it, indeed.
Football isn't a matter of life and death - it's far more important than that.
I bet their moronic fans ate it up.

Matty, remember when Husker put up those post about "most hated teams"?
Well, I am with you on the J-E-T-S SUCK SUCK SUCK!
But i am not biased against AFC East times…. I hate the Raiders equally.
I am glad you posted this stuff Matty. It will give us all more to laugh at this coming season when they fall flat on their faces in “rebuilding” mode due to lack of QB and salary cap hell from Mangina’s last gasp. And when their defense get’s torched by the Fins, i will be right there cheering…

Hello Rexy...
(SLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLAPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP!!!)
that was reality bitch. You should change ur name to Mrs. Lewis-Reed….cuz they own the rights to ur success u fat douchebag.
On the radio he said “We already have 2 great runningbacks…probally the best OLine in football…a dominating Safety (Rhodes?!)…and an elite corner (Revis)”….so he said pretty much this defense will “start off where the Ravens finished off in Pittsburg”….and to that I effin say………your right……….THEY LOST THAT GAME YOU BIG PILE OF IDIOT.
this guy…in NY..is gonna be fun to watch implode…he reminds me of Marty Morningheg (sp?)…douchey play to the camera turd faced cockmaster…but on the field that crap wont translate to wins.
Listen Rex…you have a Gholston where a Lewis was…you have no QB…your WR’s are in the bottom 5 in the NFL if u ask me….your GONNA COME DOWN TO EARTH QUICK…he makes a good fat dude cheerleader though…maybe he should paint the Jets logo on his stomach and dance at halftime….
I LOVE THIS….no Gruden, Shanahan, Schott, Cowher…..its Rexy…..Rexy sounds a shit load like 6-10 dont it?
"Worst 2 First"...Your 2008 AFC East Champion Miami Dolphins
I would expect nothing less
from this guy… loud mouthed, pompous… but whatever he’s just trying to pump things up.
What’s not seeming to get any play is the fact that he’s been passed on for head coaching gigs left and right- even by his own Ravens. Why is he all of a sudden THE guy for the Jets?? I have a feeling this will go very badly for them… not that I’m complaining about that.
Farve comes back he MAYBE has a chance to have a winning season… no Farve, things get real ugly real quick in Jetsville, and they throw a a ton of money down and bring in one of the marquee guys coming in next offseason.

Rex Ryan looks really really weird in a suit. I don’t know if I’ve ever seen him wear one before.
This is why you should have wanted the Ravens to beat the Steelers, because it would’ve given Woody Johnson another two weeks to squirm without a HC.
I think it’s really funny too when a Ravens DC starts saying our defense is going to be just like Baltimore’s. Rex, there’s a Marvin Lewis on line 1 for you and a Mike Nolan on line 2. If you remember, you used to work for those guys.
But seriously, I suspect Rex will make a good HC. His players will love him, and the Jets love spending money, so he’ll get some of that talent. As a Ravens fan I’m not looking forward to the massive personnel poaching the Ravens have earned this offseason.
Well stated...
It’s hard to believe, but I’m 100% behind Matty on this one. I live in the NYC area and have to put up with this nonsense on a daily basis. Nothing would make me happier than seeing Ryan from go from Tyrannosaurus Rex to Train Rex in 2009.
Bring on the days when the Bills-Dolphins games really counted. In January, I actually found myself rooting for the underdog Dolphins in the playoffs…and there’s something seriously wrong with that!

Matty try moving 300 miles west
But I have and always will truly hate the Jets the most.
and see if you stick to this… heck depending on the standings i’m a jets fan twice a year.
that said – I hope they don’t sell a seat in that new stadium and the team goes bankrupt and disolves.
You guys dont like him.....
Because he was able to destroy you guys in the Playoffs. 13 turnovers all season and he coaches the group that gets 5 on you when it matters most, int he playoffs. Keep being mad that you couldnt handle my Ravens, its ok.
You have to hate losing more than you love winning.
nah - don't think that has anything to do
with it… if there is anybody on the ravens a phins fan hates it’s cammy and his tired act of false modesty…
i suspect matty is reacting to the usual new york media over hyping a guy who hasn’t really done anything into the “GREATEST DEFENSIVE MIND EVER”… it would grate on my nerves also except for the fact that i live around bills myopian, which is tolerable right now because they all think their guy is the WORST coach ever and oddly enough i might have to agree with them for once.

lol....has nothing and I mean nothing to do with the Ravens....
I think its great that you care what we are thinking though. I mean, we get bloggers from other teams that come over and make stupid comments like this more often than not. Its nice that you have an interest in what the Dolphins are doing, that is kind of flattering in a way. Just curious……has anyone here gone to the Ravens site lately? No? hmmmmm wonder why…………..

LOL
We don’t like him because he’s the new Jets coach. Surprised you’re defending him when he just bolted your team for New York.
Don’t be mad because you couldn’t handle the Steelers. I love that you come back here to gloat after you get eliminated. Don’t look now, but you guys are in the same place we are, watching the Super Bowl from home. So keep coming here and talking outta your ass, while the rest of the league poaches your coaches and free agents.
