Next up: Rex Ryan

- December
- 31
The Jets asked for and got permission to talk to Baltimore defensive coordinator Rex Ryan, although no meeting has been scheduled since his team is still in the playoffs. Ryan, 46, was with the Ravens for their 2000 Super Bowl victory, and is in his ninth year with the team. He is in the first of a two-year deal with the Ravens.
He has quite an NFL lineage as the son former Eagles coach Buddy Ryan, and the twin brother of Raiders defensive coordinator Rob Ryan.
The Ravens will play the Dolphins on Sunday at 1 p.m.
Posted at 4:15 p.m…. Have a Happy New Year everyone.

If we look at the last few coaches the Jets selected, that had no prior head coaching experinece: Al Groh, Herm Edwards, Eric MAngini..
I would say its not a great idea.
Why don’t New guys flourish here?? There is no reason this team should be forced to experiment and find a diamond in the rough. Why can’t we just find a diamond.
Forget Spganolo..What about jimmy Johnson??
Next years schedule…..And we go to OAKLAND again!!!!!!!HOME
AFC East — Buffalo (7-9), Miami (11-5), New England (11-5)
AFC North — Cincinnati (4-11-1): Bengals won their last three to pass Browns for third place, and return to the Meadowlands next year, where they have lost seven straight to the Jets.
AFC South — Tennessee (13-3): AFC’s top seed and a Jets opponent for fourth straight year but for the first time at home since 2003). Jacksonville (5-11): Also the Jaguars’ first Meadowlands visit since ‘03, comeback win for Green & White, and ‘05, shoulder disaster for Chad Pennington and Jay Fiedler).
NFC South — Atlanta (11-5): Jets host Falcons, led in by Matt Ryan and John Abraham, for first times in 11 years. Carolina (12-4) Panthers, who dueled Giants for NFC’s top seed, last played Jets at Meadowlands in ‘98.
AWAY
AFC East — Buffalo (7-9), Miami (11-5), New England (11-5)
AFC South — Indianapolis (12-4): First game in Lucas Oil Stadium against Peyton Manning and Colts, who had a strong ‘08 finish. Houston (8-8): Jets’ only game at Reliant Stadium was ‘03 come-from-behind win over Texans.
AFC West — Oakland (5-11): Green & White, who enjoyed their Oakland years a while back, return to the Bay area for the second straight year vs. the Silver & Black.
NFC South — New Orleans (8-8): Drew Brees and Saints’ prolific offense will be waiting in Jets’ first Superdome visit since ‘01 Sunday night triumph. Tampa Bay (9-7): Jets haven’t played at the Buccaneers since Wayne Chrebet “Flashlight Game” win in 2000.
Why do we always have to go to f***ing Oakland! It’s like some kind of evil NFL conspiracy…I hate that place.
We may hate Oakland, but we should still be able to win there.
