Hopefully this is a sign that Rex is also heading out the door

He does nothing, why do they need him. When he calls the D, the D sucks. This is what is wrong with this entire team. Rex likes you and you get paid, regardless of your production or lack of. This may be a sign that they are changing from this mindset. Rex really needs to wake up.

How is Pettine "turning down" a contract extension a sign of Rex losing his job? The turning down part implies the Jets offered him an extension. If they had any thoughts of changing their HC they wouldn't offer his hand picked defensive coordinator an extension. I think this is a sign they plan on bringing back Rex.

every team loses coaches. look at the patsies last season. their oc accepted the nd job before the superbowl was played. it had to have some effect. pettine is due for a scenery change just like thurman or sutton or cavanaugh or anyone else on that staff. it'll be interesting to see if he gets a higher profile coaching job.

How the hell can you say that? And what do you mean call the D?
When Mike calls the sets, they lose and when Rex calls the sets they win.

He's about the only coach that I wanted the Jets to keep.

he did?

jetsfan1983 · 12-21-2012, 08:53 AM

Wow... This is shocking. He has to have a job lined up. Probably in college.

Dennis Thurman will absolutely be the main guy.

Not after the new GM comes in and sweeps the place clean of Rex and his coaches.

It'll be internal.

This is Rex's defense. He wants someone like Pettine who knows his D and his style, and can translate it to the players. Rex is still going to call the sets on D.

Edit: At least, that's what I'm hoping for. Practically speaking, the only thing that doesn't need much changing is the defense. Hopefully Sparano has already been put on notice.

Fishooked · 12-21-2012, 08:56 AM

Meh, about time if you ask me. Please take Dick Sutton with you.

You're in fantasy land.

If you think that should be done then fine, but it's just not going to happen so it's not worth talking about.
