Rex Ryan hasn't been a very popular man recently thanks to his negative comments on ESPN. Recently, Ryan got into some trouble for the way he spoke about Dallas Cowboys wide receiver, Amari Cooper. Now, Ryan is getting some harsh words from the likes of Geno Smith, who was his quarterback on the New York Jets.
In a recent ESPN segment, Ryan spoke about Bill Belichick's success with the New England Patriots and roasted the legendary coach saying he would never have gotten it done with a QB like Smith. Smith saw these comments and immediately took to Twitter where he put his former bench boss on blast.
“My momma never liked dude he been a snake. . and y’all glorify it. . should’ve got fired after yr1,” Smith said. ”Truth is we won 8 games after ESPN had us winning two and he got his job back. .somehow I’m caught up in a feud and I’m the scapegoat. . Same guy that drafted me." Smith continued by saying “I could easily go on and on about the bs I see but truthfully I’m so happy I don’t even bother. God put me in this position where even my enemies gotta mention my name. so I just sit back and watch the show!"
Ryan has been making a lot of enemies as of late and it seems like even his former players can be subjected to the slander. We wonder who he will go after next.
Tom Brady & Bill Belichick Had "Blowup" Leading To Severed Ties
Tom Brady and Bill Belichick weren’t exactly seeing eye-to-eye over the past few years.
By now, everyone knows that Tom Brady has left the New England Patriots and will be playing for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers next season. Over the past few years, there have been numerous rumors that Brady was upset with head coach Bill Belichick and that they weren’t on the best of terms anymore. Well, as it turns out, these rumors were actually pretty true. This is coming from reporting from Seth Wickersham of ESPN.
In the report, Wickersham notes that Brady wanted to play until his mid-40s and was hoping that Belichick would give him a contract that extends all the way until that time. Of course, Brady was never given this and eventually had a meeting with Belichick that ended in a blowup between the two. This occurred back in 2017 and they haven’t been on good terms ever since.

Brady grew increasingly frustrated with the franchise this past season due to the way they handled the Antonio Brown debacle. Brady didn’t like how they released AB and the whole situation pushed Brady closer to wanting to leave the franchise.

Skip Bayless Fantasizes About Bill Belichick Coaching The Cowboys
Bayless has high hopes.
Skip Bayless is one of sports talk TV's most prominent personalities, even if fans get pretty frustrated with him sometimes. Bayless has some pretty wild takes sometimes and they tend to rub people the wrong way. Other times, Bayless can be pretty funny and his reactions have become legendary memes.
The Undisputed host is a huge Dallas Cowboys fan and over the past week, he has been anticipating the dismissal of head coach Jason Garrett. Late last night, it was reported that Garrett was on his way out which was great news for Cowboys fans everywhere. During Undisputed today, Bayless contemplated the idea of Bill Belichick coaching the team. As Bayless explains, the Patriots dynasty might be over as soon as this weekend and Belichick may want to explore options elsewhere.
"If the dynasty falls on its face, if that's the end of Brady and Belichick, is there some chance that Belichick might become available?" Bayless asked. "It's possible. I think Bill Belichick would be at least slightly intrigued with America's team."
Bayless' fantasy should be regarded as just that, a fantasy. There are very few scenarios in which Bayless' dream can actually become a reality. Regardless, it's definitely fun to think about that possibility, as outlandish as it may seem.
