Bergbau » taking over for the fired Mike Tannenbaum in Janu

Florham Park, NJ (SportsNetwork.com) - The New York Jets cleaned house Monday, firing both head coach Rex Ryan and general manager John Idzik after a 4-12 season. The Jets closed the 2014 campaign with a 37-24 win at Miami on Sunday. It was the worst mark in Ryans six seasons as head coach. Idzik was on board for just two years, taking over for the fired Mike Tannenbaum in January 2013. He had served as the vice president of football administration with the Seattle Seahawks for six seasons before taking over the reins for New York. Ryan compiled a record of 46-50 with the Jets. He took over for the 2009 season and promptly led New York to a pair of AFC Championship Game appearances in his first two seasons. New York was 9-7 in Ryans first year, losing to Indianapolis in the AFC title game, then went 11-5 the following season and fell to Pittsburgh in the championship tilt. The Jets havent had a winning season since, finishing 8-8 in 2011 and 2013. Last years .500 finish came in what was expected to be a rebuilding year with rookie quarterback Geno Smith -- selected as part of Idziks first draft class -- at the helm. That bought Ryan another season after rumors of his departure during the 2013 campaign. But after a win over Oakland to start this season, it was downhill from there. The Jets lost eight in a row, the worst skid for the franchise since an eight- game slide to start the 1996 season. Smiths development, or lack thereof, was a major reason for the Jets struggles this season. He was benched after a Week 8 loss to Buffalo, then returned to the starters role a month later in a Dec. 1 loss to Miami. The Jets played well down the stretch this season, as three of their last four losses came by less than six points. Air Max Plus Nere Scontate .
