Dareus: Bills' D can be 'best ever' with Rex

Rex Ryan is an excellent defensive coach, a master motivator and, by all accounts, a genuinely affable fellow.

When the story of his coaching career is written, though, hubris will stand out as a dominant theme.

From the day he stepped into the Jets' head job seven years ago, he has mastered the role of the carnival barker, annually billing his flawed teams as Super Bowl contenders.

After six months on the job, his troops have already shown telltale signs of indoctrination into the trademark Ryan hyperbole.

"We want to be the best (defense) in history -- one of the greatest," linebacker Nigel Bradham recently said, via the Toronto Star. "That's what we're striving for ... the greatest of all time, not just this year or last year."

That sounds reasonable. The Bills' defense is one of the most talented units in the league. Why not strive to make history?

"Best ever," Pro Bowl defensive tackle Marcell Dareus said of the Bills' goal. "It's so obtainable. All we have to do is continue to do what we want, and not what we can. If we do what we want, and do everything to head in that direction, why can't we? Why can't we?"

I can't wait for the roller coaster of emotion that I'm going to be on when our defense is on the field versus when our offense is on the field.

The last sentence of that article:"The NFL's resident ringmaster couldn't survive in Florham Park, however, once his Big Top started going up in flames."

BS hyperbole.

Rex could not survive a new GM that had an agenda to get rid of him & purposely weakened that Jets team in order to do so.

This years Bills defense may not become the best of all time, but I think that is a great goal to strive for.

And if they fall short of that goal, they still could become the best Defense in the NFL in 2015.
