FalconsFan14 Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 Rex Ryan has just completed his 20th year as a coach. He has coached in the college level, and the pro level. In the college level, he coached at Deffensive Ends Coach, and as a deffensive Coordinator. In the pro level, he has coached as a Linebackers Coach, as Deffensive Lines Coach, and as a Deffensive Coordinator. The places that he has coached, and the positions that he coached, at those places are:College: Eastern Kentucky: Deffensive Ends CoachNew Mexico: Deffensive CoordinatorMoorhead State: Deffensive CoordinatorUniversity of Cincinnati: Deffensive CoordinatorUniversity of Oklahoma: Deffensive CoordinatorPro:Arizona Cardinals: Linebackers and Deffensive LineBaltimore Ravens: Deffensive Line, then became the Deffensive CoordinatorThose are all the places that he has coached throughout the past 20 years, and due to his experience, I believe that he would be able to turn the franchise around, and make them winners. He did that wherever he went. Also, he has a Super Bowl ring, from 2000, with the Ravens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scott24falcs Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 I think he would be a good hire, but it now looks like he won't be the guy. I really want Steve Spagnuolo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FalconsFan14 Posted January 20, 2008 Author Share Posted January 20, 2008 He might. And even if he isn't he could still be the DC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really want Steve Spagnuolo.Yes - It seems to be pretty clear that our top choice is still in the play-offs.Rex Ryan is probably our back-up since no one else wants him.

FalconsFan14 Posted January 20, 2008 Author Share Posted January 20, 2008 Who, Steve Spagnuolo?

This year he has finally made a name for himself, he has never been talked about, much, before this year! Practically no one knew about him, prior tio this year!Doesn't matter. I'm sure GMs and HCs knew a lot more about him than the casual fan. He's been a coach for a while. He worked under Jim Johnson (Eagle's DC) for like 7-8 years. The Giant's players and fans love him. He is a fiery guy, and would bring an aggressive, tough style of play to our team IMO. Osi Umenyiora was quoted as saying, "we would run through a brick wall for Spags."

drneckbone Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 I did not know Ryan was still under contract with Ravens. I thought they were all fired.According to that espn article, they could block anyone trying to hire him as anything other than HC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FalconsFan14 Posted January 20, 2008 Author Share Posted January 20, 2008 I guess so!But the Falcons better hire him, before Baltimore re-hires him! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
