Its on ESPN now. He statements of bravado saying how the Jets are the better team seem to ring hollow. It just seems that he might not even believe it himself.
I found it interesting that he didn't really give much credit to Sanchez himself. He said that Sanchez "has a super bowl team around him." While I think that statement creates the inference that Rex thinks the rest of the Jets team is carrying Sanchez (which I agree with), I think it is dumb to call the rest of the team a Super Bowl team when they haven't accomplished anything.

The problem is, if the Jets lose tomorrow, it's going to be hard to flip the Apollo Creed swagger into the Rocky theme song.
Anyone who watches the Jets games, and I'm fortunate enough to have Sunday Ticket, would agree on the Sanchez statement. All you see on ESPN is the game winning drive, but you don't see his poor play for 90% of the game or the fact that most quarterbacks wouldn't have second, third, fourth, seventh, and fifteenth lives after failing in crucial parts in the game. Sanchez is completing 55% of is passes... is there any more telling statistic to measure a quarterback? He has tons of weapons and is always operating out of 2nd and 2. Brady, Rivers, or Brees would be 11-0 right now with basically no challenges. Manning would be 2-9 (sorry, just had to get that in.)
Ryan is like a little insecure high school girl. "Did you hear what sheeee said???" Seriously, who gives a damn about the predictions and who has the better team. What matters is who will win the game. The Jets have set themselves up with a glass ego, one which can be shattered easily. Their head coach is constantly talking about how great they are; it will be so sweet if they lose this game, just to see how the team reacts to being the #5 seed in the AFC.

I completely agree. I get to watch a good deal of Jets games because I live in NYC. I think it will be a competitive game that could go either way (though I think the Pats have the edge). However, just seeing Rex's tactics this week make me wonder. He had to make baseless assertions that the Patriots' compliments were sarcastic, resign Coles in order to boost morale after Leonhard was injured, and say things like "I think the better team will win, and we are the better team." These recent statements seem a lot more uncertain than the statements he made earlier in the season.
Maybe they are having a really bad week of practice. I know reports were that the Pats had a bad week of practice before Cleveland. I'm just not sure, Rex just seems much more unsure of himself right now and has resorted to cheap tactics to lift up his team, boost morale, and legitimize himself and his team.
this is getting tiring really. jackie mac has another article comparing him and BB as coaches. ESPN cant have enough coverage. Why cant two people be different ? why is that such a big deal ?

It was a good article but I think Rexy has a short shelf lie, he puts it all on the line, come tuesday morning he could be the hero or the buffoon, eventually hes going to have to back his words up and after a while of not doing it people will have had enough.
If they do lose tomorrow you can bet Rex will be laying it on thick with the "we'll see who is better in the playoffs" rap.
The only time this guy is going to shut up is when they're done for the season.
"We'll see who is better next year!"
He'll make some predictable comments that the Patriots are an elite team and the Jets split against them, so therefore the Jets are great, too!!! I'm sure he will mention the fact that the Jets won in September at least fifteen times.

Yeah, let's not talk about the most anticipated matchup of the season so far...
So the season is over for the team who will lose?
I am surprised by you Pats fans, you have been thorugh many important games the last 10 years and know that one game is just one game(unless its an elimination game)
