With what seems like more than a rumor of the Zimmer negotiations coming to a halt and the reports of how impressed the Cowboys are with Rex Ryan, who do you want to be the defensive coordinator?

Don't pick who you think it will be. Pick who you want it to be.

Not thrilled with either option. That being said, I picked Ryan because at least it’s a hire outside of the Jones’ comfort zone.

Zimmer is an accomplished DC but the potential hire just reeks of the Jones’ wanting to be “comfortable”

Zimmer is the type of guy who wants to just absorb some of your attack to slow you down enough to win the game. That's not how he talks but that's how he coaches.

Ryan is a guy who attacks you. He doesn't operate on the back foot. He will look to impose his will on the offense.

The choice is clear for me.

That's another good point. Ryan is anti-Jerry. Zimmer is part of the family.

I really don’t mind either one. I went Ryan but wont be upset if it is in fact Zimmer.

Neither is ideal but Ryan has been out of the league for 7 years. 7. You know how many draft preps he’s missed? How much film he likely hasn’t watched in depth? He’d be entertaining as hell but I’m not sure how we can be happy with a guy nearly out the league a decade.

I’ll go Zimmer because I have to choose from these 2 and there’s not any real other candidates. Think it’ll be him too

I can't believe these are the top candidates. We are such a joke right now.

The only way I will endure next season is thinking Jerry will go after BB once Big Mike is fired.
