All the talk has been about Rex Ryan and his time with the Jets.
What about his 9 years with the Baltimore Ravens?
In 1999, Rex Ryan went from the Cardinals to Brian Billick's Baltimore Ravens as the defensive line coach.
Marvin Lewis was the Ravens Defensive Coordinator from 1999-2001.
Mike Nolan was the Ravens Defensive Coordinator from 2002-2004.
Mike Nolan is currently the DC of the Atlanta Falcons, the NFL's worst defense in 2014.
After being the Ravens defensive line coach for six years, Ryan finally became a Defensive Coordinator in 2005.
In 9 years with the Ravens, Baltimore's defense never ranked lower than 6th overall in the NFL.
In his first year, the defense was ranked second overall in the NFL and second in rushing yards allowed.[14] By his second year, in 2000, the Ravens' defense set NFL records for fewest points allowed and fewest rushing yards allowed.[20] The defense allowed a combined 23 points in four playoff games en route to a Super Bowl XXXV victory, Ryan's only Super Bowl ring.
