Rex Ryan "perfect fit" · PACKERSHOME

I'm a little surprised that former Journal-Sentinel writer, Greg Bedard said the following. What do you think?

I made the pitch two years ago that after the Jets, Ryan should take a step back, learn from a more offensive-minded coach, and then give it another whack. No one listens to me. My dream team last time around stands. Mike McCarthy and the Packers (if Dom Capers retires or moves on) would be a perfect fit.

Mark Kriegel, an analyst for the NFL Network, found that between 2005 and 2012, during his tenure with both the Ravens and Jets, Ryan's defenses have never been ranked lower than sixth overall in the NFL and have allowed an average of 281 yards per game from scrimmage, second to Dick LeBeau's 277.4 yards per game. LeBeau is generally regarded as one of the best defensive coordinators in the history of the NFL.[118][119]

Wiki

Despite Ryan's ability to lead defenses, after 8 years as HC, there is no way he would jump at the first offer to move from HC to DC. If he takes a year maybe two off without an offer he would probably be humbled enough to do a good job. But in the first year he would be a head case.

IMO, either Ryan brother and Green Bay is a bad fit. It would result in a weekly drama filled soap opera. No right minded GM would court such disaster, even TT.

There's been reports over the last two years that Ryan is burned out and no longer the same motivator he was before. I think he'll take his personality to some analyst gig on fox/cbs and probably never coach again.

Happy New Year to all from the Upper Peninsula of Michigan.

Given the same players, I don't think Ryan would get any better production. Much of the defensive success is because of the players he had which we would not be able to duplicate with being an offensive team.

The world needs ditch diggers too Danny!!!

Mucky Tundra (11h) : what the hell was that Goff?! Not much pressure and he just air mails it to Harrison

Mucky Tundra (11h) : They really need to to get rid of the auto first down for illegal contact

Martha Careful (12h) : watching the Vikings and Lions it's understandable why they swept the Packers. So much better product

Mucky Tundra (12h) : Even when GB got pressure he was throwing darts; vs no pressure on that last pass he just air mails an open guy

Zero2Cool (12h) : didn't have guys in his face ... pressure makes difference

Mucky Tundra (12h) : Where was this Darnold vs GB?

Mucky Tundra (12h) : BALL DON'T LIE

Mucky Tundra (13h) : Zero, I thought that was a given! ;)

Mucky Tundra (13h) : Zero I looked through earlier and noticed the same thing. Bonkers year. I just wonder if beast put any money on games

Mucky Tundra (13h) : I'm rooting for the Lions to lose.

Zero2Cool (16h) : Mayo was the guy they groomed for HC and one of the reasons they let Bill go.

Mucky Tundra (16h) : Pats have the #4 pick, lots of cap space and Maye at QB; should fetch some attention

Mucky Tundra (16h) : Well that didn't take long; Jerod Mayo out as Patriots HC

Zero2Cool (16h) : I would expect it to be higher in favor of Eagles

Mucky Tundra (16h) : Thst line seems...generous

Zero2Cool (5-Jan) : That gives them their best chance

Mucky Tundra (5-Jan) : Cowboys starting Trey Lance at QB vs Commanders; GB vs Philly in the Wild Card incoming!

Mucky Tundra (4-Jan) : Stinks for Lloyd. Hoping he comes back strong for next year

Zero2Cool (3-Jan) : Packers placed Marshawn Lloyd on reserve non-football illness list

Zero2Cool (3-Jan) : Luke Getsy been helping Packers defense. He's former OC Bears/Raiders and our old QB coach

dfosterf (2-Jan) : There was quite a bit of "chalk" matchups this year it seemed, but not this week coming up

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : Or we got better and by we I mean everyone except me

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : We have about six that by percent would have won nearly any season. I guess 2024 was predictable 🤷

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : You can check previous seasons. I quick did it and don't think anyone hit 70% before

dfosterf (2-Jan) : Hats off to the Beast

dfosterf (2-Jan) : I'm at 71.76% in pick 'em. 2nd place. Beast is at a flat 75% 9 games ahead. That 75% has got to be unprecedented this late in the season

beast (2-Jan) : I don't care deeply, just want some good entertaining games

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : BTW, not serious.

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : You don't care about it either!!!!
