I don't mean to be rode here but why are we even discussing this or care period? I guess a lot of fans still have love or respect for Rex. Don't get me wrong, its not saying I don't want the man working, he has a family to feed like I and we do. I also know he would at least get a job in TV at Fox, ESPN etc-etc... So he will he just fine. I care about our out team only. That's where my focus is. Guess we can debate this all day long but Rex's act ran dry here about 2 years ago and he should of been fired when Tanny was.
I guess people don't realise or forget Rex was handed a very team from the Mangini and Herm era. Yes Rex did bring a few players with him, a swag, attitude and defensive scheme that was boss at that time. However, he and Tanny killed that team with their dumb off season moves. Cutting or allowing key vets to walk like T. Jones, Richardson, Woody, Faneca, J-co Rhodes and a few more. These guys were leaders of the team and still had two to three years left of very play in them that could of helped us content. Then they replace them with players that not only were they not as good as them but were head cases.
Players like Holmes, Buress and Mason for ex... I will give him the Braylon Edwards trade, that was very good but they let Braylon walk and gave Holmes all that money. Rex knows nothing about QBs or offense and doesn't seem to care to know. He seemed clueless to what his players were doing in the field and didn't seem to hold them accountable for their actions. He was horrible at time and game management. His defenses got worse and worse every year, if he is such a defensive genuis then why the decline? Dont give me he didnt have the players, you change the scheme and coach the players up if you have to. I'm glad he's gone and was ready to move on two years ago. Just my opinion I guess!
