Rex Ryan would be intriguing, assuming the Jets fire him. Ryan is a player's coach. He definitely has attitude and teams often take on their coach's persona. I also like his defensive mind. His personality overshadows his creativity, and I believe the Packers have the players to run his defense.

A lot of ifs have to happen first, though. I’m not certain Mike McCarthy would fire Dom Capers. I think he prides himself on loyalty. In addition, I’m not certain the Jets will fire Ryan. Still, it’s something I was thinking about the other day.

There is enough talent on the Packers defense to field a respectable defense. I'm sure Dom Capers is a great guy, but it's just time for a change.

I've seen Rex Ryan kicked around on various articles, message boards etc. I have to say he would be intriguing as a DC canidate even though he can go overboard at times with the blowhard persona. I've read that he's been able to get pressure and sacks with his 3 man fronts doing the heavy lifting despite not having a pass rushing OLB like you want in the 3-4 (not sure if just this season or his whole tenure with the Jets). It would be interesting to see what he could do with Clay, Perry, Daniels and Jones.

So long as his team is winning, especially if they win another Super Bowl, Mike wouldn't have anything to worry about. An elite defense would go a VERY long way to doing just that. Hiring sub-par guys and many more disappointing seasons will likely result in him seeing the door anyway.
