Tua time!
Philbin
Rex kept playing Sanchez bullheadedly; Rex fiddled cluelessly as his clubhouse exploded; Rex's empty "guarantees" became another laughingstock; Rex hired Sparano terming him his "mini me" (offensively); Rex got into 1 playoff in 4 years based on merit (without Colts starters who outscored them 45-27 in approx 1.5 games (60-37 pro-rated over 2 games), not to mention tripgate which he skated responsibility on as well as all his personal embarrassments over sexual perversions, harassment and lack of self control. So yeah, we'd be a better defensive team with him as our DC, but his playing Sanchez in exhibition game 4 is akin to The Meatball getting Long injured in the same game. So thanks but no thanks.
anyone who chooses Philbin doesn't want to win. Look at what rex did w/ the talent last year and what he has done w/ the talent this year. The 2 aren't close, Rex is a top 10 coach in this league.
He has perhaps the biggest superstar of all time in Brady. You take him off that team and they sink to the bottom of the AFC.Its interesting how Rex went from a winning percentage of 60% with Revis to 35% without him. It goes to show how impactful one superstar can be to a mediocre team. And there are many many other examples of it throughout the league every year.
It also goes to show how great Belichick is, he's lost his superstars on several occasions and just keeps winning.

As for his other superstars, he had none. He thrived on defensive standouts that were drafted by Pete Carroll and Bill Parcells.
Rex will be yesterday's news in 1-2 more years. He creates an atmosphere of chaos that's not healthy. You don't have to be brash or vocal to be a good coach. I like Philbin. He inherited a lot of players that weren't his and Ireland still makes a lot of the calls.....It takes a little time for a coach to set the example.
Rex is a great DC that got over promoted.
He has had 4 years of on the job training and is only starting to behave like a proper executive.
Philbin has done more with less in less time.
I saw Mallet play the Lions pre season week 3. He looked horrible. I am not at all concerned with Mallet following up. As for 2008 they had a solid defense and Cassel gave them a great year. They talent level is not as good as it was then.He's lost him before and that didn't happen. Even if he lost him now if there was a way to test it I would bet large sums of money they wouldn't finish last in the AFCE. Hell, Mallet could be the second best QB in the division for all we know.
2 guys in how many drafts?Vince Wilfork, Jerod Mayo and others were drafted by PArcells?
