The Washington Post's Jason La Canfora says that Rex Ryan doesn't want to go to Washington in a lateral move.
If the Skins can only get Ryan by giving him the head coaching job, then perhaps they should. Anyone but Jim Fassel. La Canfora writes that Fassel may not get the gig if Ryan isn't on board. Washington's search now seems more unclear than ever.

Sucks about Ryan. GW is a very good DC, but it would've been nice to get someone who is good at building a dline and runs a defense that can generate a pass rush without blitzing.

I'm tellin' ya. You have to ignore the media. They have no solid info, just pieces.
They slap together what few things they hear, and fill in the blanks. They look to each other for validation. So, if Bram Weinstein hears that Jim Fassel was here, he assumes that the jet that was sent to Scottsdale, Arizona was for Fassel, thus making it his second interview, and that since that interview happened before GW's interview, then Fassel must be the favorite, and if he's the favorite, then Al Saunders must be getting fired too. Since Al Saunders hasn't interviewed for the HC position, then he must have fallen out of favor with Dan Snyder, and so on, and so on.
Then ESPN, reads what Bram says, and reports that "sources close to the Redskins organization (being Bram) have reported..."
Then the Washington Post reports that "ESPN has confirmed that..."
and before you know it, a bunch of knucleheads are standing outside of Ashburn with Jim Fassel protest signs.
Wait for the Press release from the Redskins

I believe that you are right, Rex Ryan is the son of Buddy Ryan.

rex ryan is buddys son.
From Wikipedia:
Ryan's twin sons also became involved in football coaching and served at the college and professional level. His sons are former Baltimore Ravens defensive coordinator Rex Ryan and former Oakland Raiders defensive coordinator Rob Ryan.
so....there you go.....

Rex Ryan is indeed, the spawn of Buddy. Makes me nauseous thinking of that line of genetics on the Redskins sideline.
Buddy Ryan was the "AntiGibbs". Fortunately, good conquered evil in those days. Gibbs was among the first to solve the 46.

Classic! I concur. Other than knowing that the Danny is meeting with coaching prospects, all we hear are rumors and speculation.

Id rather have Buddy Ryan. I know GW would stay aboard if Buddy Ryan were named head coach. Since GW is a pupil of Ryans school of kill the QB.
Since that is not reality, I still want GW as the head coach. Plus Buddy Ryan takes care of his ailing wife.

Rex Ryan denied Thursday that he's spoken to other teams about defensive coordinator positions.
Ryan hopes to remain the DC in Baltimore, but wants a raise. "I hope everything works out financially, but I'm going right to my office at the Ravens tomorrow," he said. Ryan sounds willing to work for coach John Harbaugh.
http://www.rotoworld.comhttp://www.baltimoresun.com/sports/football/bal-ryan0124,0,5878649.story?track=rssChargers denied the Redskins permission to interview QBs coach John Ramsdell and signed him to a three-year contract extension.
The Redskins intended to interview Ramsdell for their offensive coordinator or QBs coach job. Rex Ryan (Ravens) and Jim Zorn (Seahawks) also appear to be staying with their clubs, according to the Washington Post.

I have no idea what your point is (I doubt that you do, as well). The FACT is, Gibbs pretty consistently kicked Buddy's butt. The Ryans do not belong in the House that Gibbs built. That's just obscene.
