Jets Trainer Trips Miami Player

anyone buying into the theory that the jets as a whole organization are out of control and it all trickles down from their old-school ballcoach rex?

i wasnt buying it before, it was mentioned with the whole female hispanic reporter incident but now . . . .idk man. it seems the whole organization has embraced the rex ryan "say and do what you want" tough guy mantra.

raven players said rex would get them all pumped up and theyd be willing to run thru a brick wall for the man. he seems to instill that "do whatever is necessary" approach. his S&C coach just got caught up in the rex ryan hype machine.

I've said it from the beginning. Ryan is a no class act. IMHO, his brand/style of coaching produces results in the short term as players get pumped up by the "us against the world / no one can tell us how to act" schtick. Then the players realize that "hey, we don't have to listen to you either coach". Pretty soon the inmates will be running the asylum.

Didn't like his father, don't like him. Apple clearly didn't fall far from the tree.

I think he should be fired, and receive a ban from the NFL that can be reviewed after a few seasons. He could have ended the player's career with a stunt like that. Rex Ryan has to fire this guy to save any credibility he has left...

Ryan should be fined too. In fact, the organization should too. 30 years of watching pro ball and NEVER have I seen anything like that. (but then, that could just be my memory/sanity slowly ebbing away....)

It's happened before in college football. I don't know the exact story, but I think it goes: A running back for Rice? Not sure if they said the college was Rice or not, but this running back broke away for what looked like a 95 yard touchdown, and some guy who was on the opposing team but was standing on the sideline, came in and hit him so he couldn't score the touchdown, and the ref awarded a touchdown to Rice anyways. It mentions it in the ESPN blogs I think. Anyways it happened back in like '56 or something so I wouldn't be suprised if but a couple people remembered it.

There was actually a much more blatant version of it in football. Can't remember if it was pro or college but it was during the days of black and white. A player was actually make a wide open run for the end zone when a player from the opposing team ran off the sideline and tackled the runner.

I think thats a fair penalty but IMO he should never be allowed on the sideline again.

If he was not caught I could see Rex and company patting this guy o nthe back, especially after I saw them on Hard Knocks. This team is quickly becoming one of my least favorites.

does he really NEED to be on the sideline anyway? should have been fired. the players are the product. the guy could have been injured

This seems like something that came from Rex Ryan's leadership and the general attitude he brings to the organization. He is vulgar, seems classless...and it trickles down throughout the whole staff and the players. The Jets have been in trouble several times this season. Sure, the reporter "issue" did seem to be more of a creation of that attention-seeking woman...they still acted in a way that allowed her to get her desired-result, a blowup in the media.

The Jets are sinking to Belichick levels.

I think he should have been fired, but the Jets trotting him out to apologize without taking any actions makes it appear that may have approved of, or at least not been offended his actions. He definitely got off lightly. Sure the money is a huge chunk of his paycheck at his salary...but he should be out of a job for that crap.

Woody Hayes? :benched:

There's a famous B&W incident from a Michigan-OSU games in 1971 where Buckeye coach Woody Hayes blew up...not sure if that's the incident or not.

Here's another one of his "highlights":
