ReutersJets coach Rex Ryan had a bad night in Denver. Friday won’t get much better.
The league will be disclosing at some point today the fine to be imposed on Ryan for his Sunday night New York echo while entering the tunnel at MetLife Stadium during halftime of the November 13 game against the Patriots.
So what will it be? If he was fined $50,000 for showing a middle finger to a fan at a non-NFL event in South Florida last year, will he be fined more, or less, for shouting the “F” word to a paying customer, in the presence of other paying customers, while Rex is on the clock?
While we wait for the answer, feel free to offer your own prediction from the choices below.

Oh my, you New Yorkers must be soooo proud.
I vote to fine him $1…and I am a Patriots fan.
Maybe we’ll get lucky & they’ll cut his fat tongue out
Your poll is lacking an option of $0. I mean, c’mon man, he swore… who the f’ cares?
He should be fined by the Jets for running his mouth and backing it up with a 5-5 team that’s not even as good as its record, not for a hilarious verbal jab at a taunter.
The only reason Rex responded that way is because he knew the fan was right…
Hey rex! How’s that Superbowl prediction working out for you? Here’s one “I predict you will get to watch the Superbowl…again!”
Didn’t Bud Adams get a $250K fine a few years ago? I get that he is an owner, so its different, but I have to imagine that its in a similar neighborhood.
Then again, this IS Goodells operation, and we all know how consistent he is with this fine business (rolls eyes)….
Fine him a years pay then maybe he will shut up
As a Pats fan I would agree with the $1.00 figure. If he had said anything less to the fan who yelled at him it would have been offensive.
Don’t like the Jets nor Ryan because of their bombastic NYC mouths, but don’t think he should be find. This is the NFL – or at least it used to be – not choir practice.
Meant fined, of course.
The NFL shouldn’t fine him; maybe the Jets.
Suspend him..and fine him. ..Every other coach would get that
One game suspension for the foot fetish fatty
Rex’s only problem is his ego which is massive, then again so is his waistline.
its a shame his cranium is so small. after all he cant keep his mouth shut and he hired an idiot savante as an OC.
his owner should fine him for being, well a Ryan who doesnt know when to shut up.
Very fitting that the add above the poll is for Hellmans Mayonaise.
so sick of fines.
It seems like the phrase “I guarantee we’ll win the Super Bowl this year” doesn’t meant what Rex Ryan thinks it means
Who cares.
This site is getting deperate for stories.
Believe me I’m no Rex Ryan fan, but hey, that word has become so prevalent in our society and in the heat of emotion who doesn’t utter it. You mean to tell me Roger himself has let go with a few F bombs? I mean what the _______!
Was he wearing orange shoes at the time too? If so, I think that constitutes a lifetime ban from the NFL in Goodell Two Shoe’s eyes.
Instead of a fine, they should tell him “Rex you are not to open your mouth for one month”.
I’m betting he can’t do it.
Rex looked shell shocked on the sidelines last night. With no running game he had no clue. Its obvious he knows you cannot win on the arm of Sanchez. His passing or lack of isn’t scaring anyone these days.
Take the run game away and its a pass rush feeding frenzy. Good luck with that Rex
Suspend him for the playoffs..oh wait HE WON’T BE IN THE PLAYOFFS!
Wow. We are getting really sensitive about these things. If he had said it with a network camera in his face and he knew he was on TV– then yes, fine the guy.
But I see nothing wrong with him retorting to an idiot (aren’t all Pats fans?) in the stands.
He shouldn’t be fined, but should be commended.
Last week it reported that Rex Ryan called a Mark Sanchez timeout near the end of the first half against the Pats”the stupidest thing in football history.” I think they meant the stupidest coach in football history.
I don’t think they will fine him. His punishment will be to continue to start Sanchez as his QB.
Am I the only one that can’t understand what the fan said to Rex??? What was said?
I’ve got to laugh at all of the Pats trolls here on this thread who complain about similar comments on Pats threads.
Pot calling the kettle black…just another day in the life of a New England sports fan.
Take away his lunch money.
