Rex Ryan Savagely Rips Brandon Staley: He Should Go Back To Division III Where He Belongs

Rex Ryan, the former head coach of the Jets who now delivers big opinions on ESPN's Get up, said Monday morning that Staley belongs back in Division III college football, a reference to Staley's time coaching at the University of St. Thomas in St. Paul, Minnesota in 2009.

"I think he should back in Division III football where he belongs. Look at his résumé, man. I mean, I'm sorry, dude comes in there one year coordinating a team that my wife could coach, alright, with Aaron Donald, all those guys. Stop it," Ryan barked.

"Trust me, she'd do a helluva lot better job than this guy's doing with this defense. They're the second highest payroll in the National Football League on defense, and they're the second worst. This team is atrocious."

Ryan said the Chargers made quarterback Jordan Love look like Aaron Rodgers, Brett Favre and Bart Starr. And then he criticized Staley's passionate response when he told a reporter who asked about the defense to stop asking the question.

"You know, I'm sorry, your job's to sit up there and answer questions. That man has a right, or woman, has a right to ask you any question she wants. You get paid to answer those things, alright? Handle it," Ryan said.

"The reason they're questioning you is because you're atrocious on defense. Give it to anybody else. Let somebody else coach because it ain't getting done."
