i_am_the_swammi Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 AP source: Jets agree to make Rex Ryan coach Print By DENNIS WASZAK Jr., AP Sports Writer Dennis Waszak Jr., Ap Sports Writer – 46 mins ago NEW YORK – The New York Jets have reached an agreement with Rex Ryan to make the Baltimore defensive coordinator their head coach, a person with knowledge of the deal told The Associated Press. The person, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because the four-year deal was not yet finalized, says it was expected to be done in the next few days. Ryan, 46, replaces the fired Eric Mangini and takes over a team that started last season 8-3, but missed the playoffs with quarterback Brett Favre after losing four of its last five games. Ryan is expected to be formally introduced at a news conference Wednesday at the Jets' facility in Florham Park, N.J.

CaP'N GRuNGe Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 If Farve retires, who's the QB? The open market ain't that great and I think the QB draft prospects are kinda stinky. Let the Brett Ratliff era begin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
