I wouldn't call him a terrible HC. The talent on the offensive side of the ball has pretty much been trash. It's well known that Rex never wanted Geno Smith, and the GM and ownership basically told him to play Geno. The guy is a clown in the media, but his players fucking love him, and play their asses off for him.

He is either clueless or uncaring about the offensive side of the ball either makes him a bad HC IMO. No different than Schwartz.

I don't think that he wsa clueless of uncaring at all. When you look at the early years with the Jets and Sanchez, that team had an identity on offense. I think the problem was with the players Tannenbaum and later Idzick were saddling him with.

Didn't they end up sitting on tons of cap space instead of spending it to fill out holes in the roster?

I am not sure what their cap situation is like. I do know that Rex wanted nothing to do with Tim Tebow or Geno Smith, both of which created circuses within the organization. Now Iam not painting Rex out to be Vince Lombardi, but I think that he is a better coach than what people here give him credit for.

I heard reported a couple of days ago that he wanted Trestman as his OC and wanted to keep Schwartz. Now they are saying he wants Roman as OC.

All reports are that Gym Shorts is staying on his staff. I think his OC choice is based upon the parts that he has on offense. I see Trestmen as a good fit as OC for the players in Atlanta (finesse passing attack), whereas Roman would be a better fit for the guy in Buffalo(Power run game).

I think he's better than most. NYJ was ugly at the end but there was probably a four year window where they were legit contenders and I think he had more influence on that than most coaches do.
I'd rather have Rex than Caldwell.

Didn't they end up sitting on tons of cap space instead of spending it to fill out holes in the roster? Not to many head coaches have a say in what talent the GM brings in. See why Harbaugh got broomed out of SF. The Jets had close to 20 million in cap space at one point i believe during the saeson which is why they traded for Harvin.
Rex will do great in Buffalo. Especially if the reports are correct of them maybe going after Cutler.
