The New York Jets, who had Super Bowl aspirations in training camp, are 3-8 — but Rex Ryan says the season would be totally different if he were in charge.
The New York Jets had Super Bowl hopes with the return of Aaron Rodgers, a multitude of weapons, and what was supposed to be an elite defense. But before Thanksgiving, they are 3-8 with both their head coach and general manager now out of the building. The 2024 Jets season could very well be the most disappointing in the history of sports, as Rodgers looks like a 40-year-old off a major injury and the defense has taken numerous leaps backward.
But Rex Ryan feels he would have this year's team where they were supposed to be. Ryan and Robert Saleh had their beef a few years ago but squashed it rather quickly. But Ryan does not feel confident in interim head coach Jeff Ulbrich. 'The coaching is an absolute disaster. I'm not sugarcoating it — it's been bad, it stinks, and there's no way around it,' Ryan told ESPN New York's 'DiPietro and Rothenberg' on Monday.
Ryan, though, says he has had opportunities to return to coaching — and maybe the Jets will give him a call when this season is over. Follow Fox News Digital’s sports coverage on X, and subscribe to the Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter.
