Rex Ryan hasn't allowed New York's 1-6 start to squelch his sense of humor.



The New York Jets coach slipped into the team's media room on Wednesday to interrupt a conference call with rookie wideout Sammy Watkins, whose Buffalo Bills face Gang Green on Sunday.


"Sammy, I've got a question," Ryan said, per ESPNNewYork.com's Rich Cimini. "How did you help Seth Ryan out? How'd he do out there? And if you could really help him, you wouldn't play this game (on Sunday). This sounds like Rex Ryan -- I know it does -- but this is a reporter."


Watkins responded with a laugh.

Pretty funny story.

Rex's son Seth played with Sammy at Clemson.

Pretty ingenious of Rex, sending his son to Clemson to scout our Top 5 pick before he was even on the team. Almost Belichickian.

That's pretty ****ing hilarious.

He's now the Andy Kaufman of NFL coaches. Great schtick.

Sense of humor = A-Okay
Public foot fetish = probably could use a little more discretion

Otherwise, I find Rex Ryan absurdly amusing.

Hate losing to him, but generally enjoy his antics and post-game gems.

I hope Sammy not only grills Ryan's defense on Sunday, but burns it to a crisp.
