I would rank Smith ahead of Ryan. We are going backwards.

Smith down at NOLA as the new DC would be a nightmare for the Falcons. IF Ryan has mandated the exodus of TD as Mark Bradley from the ajc thinks he did as a prerequisite to taking the spot this would be huge.

Have a fresh start and hopefully become competitive instead of lucky like they were on occasion this season.

5 straight hours of looking at tape of our defensive personnel, then looking at Dimitroff, then looking at the tape, and then looking back at Dimitroff. No words spoken.

Rex would be an interesting hire. He knows how to get a defense going in the NFL and y'all already have a good offense. I'd just be concerned that he'd somehow find a way to frick up all that talent

I have my fingers crossed

Seems it'll be him or Bowles...can't go wrong with either of those

Think we will hear something by or during the weekend with us interviewing Bowles on Thursday

I'm all for Rex but he needs to bring in a top notch offensive coordinator


Marc Trestman would fit the bill here.

LMAO!! At the end of the 5 hours Rex should have set the tape on fire and told Blank if he (Dimitroff) is going to be here then I am not and walked out of Flowery Branch and never looked back.

If Rex is the best available, then so be it. I just wish he wasn't the best available.

Why? Who are you expecting to be available?

Why?

Maybe his troubles with the Jets were partially due to the GM, but I just don't think he's any better than Smith, and may be a step backward as someone else said.

No one else, that's why I said I wish he wasn't the best available.

He never had a QB in NY and always put a good defense out


Here he will have a top QB, big time weapons, and he can turn the D around when TD gets the boot...and I know he's the best available but I'm asking who you would prefer...you're not gonna get a Belichick or Carroll

Nothing wrong with Ryan pocket passer, well if he has blocking and pass protection which he often doesn't.
