Rex and Harbaugh met the first week of last season. How did that work out for the Jets? With such a great coach and a much better team I’m sure the Jets beat the hell out of them.

Harbaugh inherited a great team, Rex inherited a team that just crashed and burned after the Favre debacle. Harbaugh had the luxury of walking into a situation where he had one of the leagues best defenses if not the best, Rex inherited a swiss cheese defense that was ranked 29th against the pass, and he brought that defense to #1 in the league ahead of every other team by 30 yards allowed per game.

Rex built from the ground up instituting a whole new defense, a new offense for the rookie sanchez whereas harbaugh didn’t have to do all of that, he had some of the best defensive players in the league and some of the best defensive players ever in Reed and R Lewis.

Rex has actually beaten the steelers with Roethlisberger on the field, and harbaugh has not managed to do that in several tries.

The Ravens defense has declined with every year Harbaugh has been there.. and every year Ryan has left… coincidence?

Rex has brought his team with a worse quarterback than the ravens, and a far less talented defense (yet still a better defense) to the AFC championship two years in a row beating elite QBs along the way.. Philip Rivers, Tom Brady, Peyton Manning whereas Harbaughs track record is beating Chad pennington, Kerry Collins, Tom Brady w/o welker, and Matt Cassel.

You all piss and moan about being tired of Rex’s antics; if you are tired, stop listening, change the channel when he comes on sports center, change the radio station when they talk about him, you act like a bunch whining kids when it comes to this apparently not realizing you can control what you read, watch, and listen in the media. Rex is just being himself and Jet fans love it, the media loves it, his players love it, but you don’t have to, but that doesn’t mean you get to complain like someone is tying you to a chair and making you watch Rex Ryan press conferences non stop.

If Rex’s antics are wearing thin, then Harbaugh’s prowess as a coach compared to Rex is wearing even thinner because Harbaugh is showing he cannot get past his division rival steelers, whereas Rex has shown he can consistently beat the patriots when no one else can. And let us just take the simple fact that the Jets are simply a better team right now than the Ravens.

Rex > Harbaugh

You have zero clue what you are talking about. In Rex’s last season and Joe’s first he was publicly petitioning for Joe to be the starting qb before he even was thrown into the roll. So yet again you bandwagon steeler fans show just how much you know about football. See ya in 3 weeks chump!!!

that quote is from steve ‘sciotti, not john harbs’. im sure it has been corrected by now but better safe than sorry

And really, these foot fetish jokes are getting ridiculous. How narrow-minded are some of you clowns? Pounding on your keyboard, day after day after day on every Jets story waiting to type “haha FEET!”

foot fetish jokes getting ridiculous? The jets coach that complained about the Pat’s cheating (then admitted he and every team did it too) has complete losers like “Bozo” mentioning cheating in every Pat’s article. And for what, 5 years? Get used to it, maybe it will die out since the Jet’s don’t get as much exposure (no rings).

How do you figure?

Harbaugh:
Year 1 – Wildcard, AFCC loss to PIT
Year 2 – Wildcard, DIV loss to IND
Year 3 – Wildcard, DIV loss to PIT

Rex:
Year 1 – Wildcard, AFCC loss to IND
Year 2 – Wildcard, AFCC loss to PIT

Have to wait and see what Rex does this year. If it’s another trip deep into the playoffs, I think you have to give him the nod.

It’s close. They’re both pretty good coaches that run teams dedicated to defense and running the ball, with average QBs. They both play in divisions that they’ve been close, but unable, to win thus far. The difference right now is that Rex has been able to get over the Patriots hump, while Harbaugh is still getting slapped around by Pittsburgh in big games.

LOLOLO…seriously? I’d take flacco any day of the week over mark Sanchez.

At least John’s a young, fit guy; not to mention he’s also not an a-hole.

In reality, neither coach has won a Super Bowl since being hired, and ultimately Harbaugh has had less to work with talent wise. Both are good coaches, but when viewed through media goggles you’d think they made a terrible decision like choosing Mark Sanchez over Josh Freeman or something.

…oh wait, Rex Ryan did that?

Jets and Ravens are both in really good shape going forward for sure

Translation: Rex is a major tool

Ryan’s act is wearing off and by the end of this season it will become even more evident.

Ryan is destined to be a commentator on ESPN as all Yet’s Head Coach’s end up being.

And I don’t think Harbaugh is going to be putting any videos of his wife on the internet asking for guys to meet up with her while he watches. Rex is an embarrassment – plain and simple.
