As usual, the unpredictable happened. Rex Ryan is now the Head Coach of the Buffalo Bills. Reports had been flowing about Rex going to ESPN, CBS, maybe the 49ers but almost for sure, since supposedly Arthur Blanks loved him, to the Atlanta Falcons to become their new Head Coach.

Michael Vick is now a New York Jet. That is a sentence I never thought I’d say in my life! The reaction across twitter and Facebook was swift and extreme to say the least.

Tomorrow’s Jet-Oakland game is crucial! I’m not saying that just because a loss would really close any playoff hopes. All week we hear that we have Jeremy Kerley and Santonio Holmes healthy as weapons at WR for Geno.
