Thread: Ryan: Five Jets assistant coaches won't be back for 2010 season

WOW - Ryan's cleaning house on a team which played in the AFC Championship game

http://www.nfl.com/news/story?id=090...s&confirm=true

FLORHAM PARK, N.J. -- New York Jets coach Rex Ryan said Monday that five staff members, including assistant quarterbacks coach John DeFilippo, will not be back with the team next season.

yan said the contracts of DeFilippo, assistant defensive backs coach Doug Plank, special teams assistant Kevin O'Dea, pass-rush specialist Chuck Smith and defensive quality-control coach Brian Smith had expired and wouldn't be extended.

The announcement comes one day after the Jets lost to the Indianapolis Colts in the AFC Championship Game.

DeFilippo is pursuing a job as an NFL quarterbacks coach after helping rookie Mark Sanchez develop this season. Chuck Smith is going to the University of Tennessee to be the Volunteers' defensive line coach.

Yeah?

Should we assume that "nobody likes working with" Coach Ryan? "Can't wait to get out"?

Based on some of the mindset here - there is no OTHER way to look at it

Not really - just pointing out what another coach is doing - but when Coach McD does anything like this - it is driven by ego, immaturity, etc., etc., etc.

“(Some contracts) ran out, and some contracts will not be extended, and that’s unfortunate because some guys did a great job,” head coach Rex Ryan said. “I’d really rather not get into the particulars of things right now.”

ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports that Jets owner Woody Johnson felt that the team had too many coaches and that they will not replace any of the departures.

Coach McD has accomplished alot less then Ryan has. This is hardly rocking the boat, especially since it looks like Ryan didnt have a choice in this.

assistant" QB's coach?

really?

Oh Wow. So there's another possible explanation than what I came up with right when I first heard the story?

Imagine that.

It seemed pretty clear to me. Unless there is some weird behind the scense thing I am unaware of.

My fault... I thought it was weird uintil I read "Chuck Smith and defensive quality-control coach Brian Smith had expired and wouldn't be extended" from Carlos post.

Then I assumed they were from Mangina's squad and it all made sense.
