Maybe in the college ranks. I think his history pretty much speaks for itself. All Ryan's outspokenness is tough to deal with, but when you produce a top 5 defense. You learn to deal with it. When you're outspoken and suck. That's a tough pill to swallow for any team. I doubt he gets another DC job at the NFL level for awhile.

Rob Ryan is one of the biggest frauds. I was so excited to get him, especially after Wade's vanilla schemes. He was supposed to bring a defense that will always confuse offenses with the looks they give and yet it would always end up confusing our own players and they'd still get burned. He is DONE as a coordinator! Maybe he can be a serviceable position coach

The Saints will make a move on defensive coordinator Rob Ryan during their bye week, according to Fox Sports' Alex Marvez.

Per his report, New Orleans will fire Ryan after his defense gave up 514 yards and 47 points in a 33-point loss to Washington on Sunday. It marked the second straight game the defense had given up over 40 points.

Ryan's defense ranks last in six separate categories. They are at the bottom of the league in allowing points, yards, passing touchdowns and passing and rushing yards per attempt. They rank last in forcing interceptions and 31st in giving up first downs. The defense is also a large reason behind the Saints penalty problem.

According to The Football Database, the Saints defense has been penalized for holding, pass interference illegal contact or offsides 27 times, and they lead the league in defensive holding penalties accepted.

In fairness to Ryan, his unit especially the linebackers have been experiencing injuries woes all season, but it doesn't look like that's an excuse the organization is willing to accept any longer.

Love the guy's personality. Wish he worked out for us. I wanted JC gone before him when they canned him. I think he has gotten a raw deal for whatever reason. Poltics I guess.

I came down in the opposite camp2080. I hated the fact that he worked for the Cowboys. He and his gimickydefense is the reason we made the mo trade and signed Carr . We were left trying to fit man cover corners into a zone scheme.
When I think of Rob, classless and crass come to mind and oh yea that defense they put on the field in New Orleans was the one we watched right here.
