Im not as down on Rex as most of yall are. I think he would be a solid hire, if Im remembering right Ryan was Blanks pick for the HC position before we hired Smitty. I know he could come in here and turn this defense around and make us more physical.
We have a couple talented players already(Tru, Alford, Hagemann) and some solid players(Ishmel, Willy Mo, Soliai, Babs, Peters, Lowery). We add 3-4 this offseason and in the draft we might be aight. If he just make us an average defense next year we could be back to winning 10-11 games.
Rex problem is on the offensive side of the ball when it comes to hiring offensive coordinators and getting talent. And a lot of his problems was prob the Jets front office......
Honestly we could keep Dirk K on as OC. If we can get some production out of the run game and start playing some defense we will be str8. I dont think we are that far away from winning again. We just need to make a good hire and have a good productive offseason. We cant get no lower than we were 7 years ago with the Vick shit and we turned right around and won 12 games the next year. And we was one Keith Brooking play away from upsetting the Cards in the playoffs.
