I won't really believe he's gone until next season kicks off. Even then who knows?

As soon as a contending team's starting QB goes down with a serious injury, the rumors will start up about him coming back.
 
Blame the media for hyping the Jets up the way they do...I am sure you would love Rex if he was your coach too.

Bart Scott said yesterday he would die for that man...As long as Rex is around, the Jets will bring in some good talent man...Players loves coaches like Rex

Btw, I heard Wes Welker was crying after the game in the lockerroom and Brady as well in the tunnel befor he went to console Welker.

Oh don't get me wrong, I adore Rex Ryan. I think we need more coaches like him who aren't afraid to speak their mind, scream when they're made, celebrate when they're happy, etc. Teams seem to be adopting a trend of hiring emotionless *****es like Mike Tomlin, Jim Caldwell, Wade Phillips, etc. Hell, even Cleveland had the opportunity to have one of the best spit shooters, Jon Gruden and they turned him down for Pat Shurmur. I love seeing a coach with emotion. I love seeing a coach who takes the pressure off of his players by putting it on himself.

But I really don't think that there is denying that the Jets players are classless. That said, it works for them. They've embraced their role of villains of the NFL and have fun with it. I mean, hell, one of the Jets players threatened to basically end Welker's career this week. They talk ****, they act like classless jack asses, but they back it up on the field (and then act even more classless after backing it up). But it works for them.
 
Lovie Smith and Mike McCarthy seem to be emotionless as well, and yet they are coaching against each other this weekend.
 
If they can't turn one of your press conferences into a funny Coors Light commercial, you aren't that interesting of a coach.
 
the Raiders did the exact same thing during their heyday

And it was great. I love a villain team. Adds some entertainment value. The Jets seem to have embraced this role, which I love even more. They don't sit around and cry about how the media has made them into bad guys (T.O., Ocho, I'm looking in your directions). They just talk even more **** when they get called on their **** talking. Its amazing. :up:

I remember I was watching an interview with Ahmad Rashad about that time and how the Raiders were coming to Minnesota...he talked about how the Vikings players show up, shirts and ties, very professional and the Raiders bus pulls up, they get off and it looks like the bus from Rahway State prison...gold chains, leather jackets, pimp hats

Very true. It does fit the city. I am loving what Rex Ryan has done with the Jets. Besides, the Jets have earned the right to talk ****. 2 years as head coach, two AFC championships. There is no denying his track record.

Interesting article on the Welker benching:

Paul Banks said:
Patriots Decision to Bench Wes Welker: DUMB!


If you're even a casual fan of the NFL, you're probably sick of hearing about the week's worth of trash talk leading up to the New York Jets victory over the New England Patriots in the AFC Divisional round.


But one more story popped up; right at kickoff. Pats Head Coach Bill Belichick decided to bench Wes Welker perhaps the greatest slot receiver in NFL history, despite his flair for comedy and exceptional poker face in executing it.

Before we criticize this DUMB DECISION, let's recall Welker's extremely subtle, irreverent, double entendre humor at it's finest.

You know doubt heard about Rex Ryan's foot fetish, and that he possibly allegedly likes to watch other men penetrate his wife on occasion, in various orifices. (Or at least that's what an internet personal ad which is thought to be Ryan implies).

Yes, you don't have to make any of this stuff up. The truth is sensationalized plenty already.

Thursday, Welker made 11 foot references during his nine minute media conference. You can see the clip of all 11 references here, or watch the whole thing by going here.

Now I'm all about The Patriot Way; an idea best exemplified by Welker himself; because you can't spell awesome without w-e-s. And I'm a big fan of discipline; but not here, not now. The Jets covered the Pats receivers like no one else has all year. "Revis Island" spread into an archipelago amongst NYJ DBs.

Brady was sacked five times, but he did have plenty of time on plenty of other dropbacks. And no one was open.

Granted Welker was benched for only the first series, and he still led the team in receptions with seven on the day. But he dropped a sure TD pass in garbage time, and overall his yards per catch was way below his average.

Basically, Welker wasn't himself. Meaning....the Jets got in his head- because Belichick let them.

The whole point of their smack talk was to gain a psychological edge, and Belichick's bone-headed decision to NOT have all hands on deck the entire game (which is what you MUST do in all postseason games. period) backfired badly.

Thinking you can win without playing Welker makes you look extremely arrogant. Or rather "Jet like."

So congratulations, you let the Jets beat you by letting their mind games control your decision-making.

They should have thrown it to Moss more.

The Jets are just this decades Eagles....bottom line they won, and that in the end in Pro football is what counts...It was the Jets day, not the Patriots......that is just how it goes in football.

I just heard that Farve filed his 'retirement' paperwork. Forgive my cynicism... :dry:
 
Sources: Miami to Hire Brian Daboll

All that talk from Ross and Sparano about fixing the offense; making it unpredictable and creative. Then, they turn around and hire the guy who presided over the offense that, over the last two seasons, finished 29th and 31st in points and 32nd and 29th in total yards. The Browns actually managed to score less points than the Dolphins; more vanilla and less effective. :dry:

What the ****?
 
Looking to finish 3rd in their division once again?

This one is a bit more believable than the other retirements though for several reasons:

- He has injury issues that forced him to miss three of the last four games of the season.
- He's not had a good season this year showing signs of age. If his 2010 had been a repeat of 2009, his chances of returning were high. Same goes if the Vikings had a repeat of 2009.
- A possible NFL lockout is on the horizon.

I'd say the chances of him actually retiring for good this time is 40%, up from when I had it at 0% the last two seasons.

It's like they want to have another bad Season (sighs) I wonder how many Dolphins fans are hoping for a lock out ?
