The Definition of Disrespect by Rex

The Pats threw on 3rd and 6, late in the 4th up 31-14 on Sunday. 
In fact, it was a deep ball lofted toward Randy Moss, ultimately covered well by Darrelle Revis (as he was all afternoon). Fell incomplete. 

When asked about the play the day after, Rex Ryan suggested it was "disrespect" by the Patriots - although couched his comments by saying it may not have been a Belichick decision, maybe just something Brady and Moss drew up in the dirt. 

Revis has chatted all week about shutting down Moss in their first meeting of the season (which was true) and that the WR had not given him enough respect after the game (which is also true - Moss said they rolled safety help over on every play. Not quite). 

So, it's distinctly possible Brady and Moss wanted one last shot to rub some New England salt in the wounds of the free-falling Jets, who need a tourniquet more than a cover corner these days. 

But for Ryan (or any Jet for that matter) to complain about disrespect or sportsmanship is like the Iron Sheik blathering about Hulk Hogan's histrionics. 

It was the Jets who crowed to anyone with a microphone or steno pad before the season that it was New York who was the bully of the AFC East. 

They beat their chest and believed they would "embarrass" the Pats in Week Two, Rex had not taken the job to "kiss Bill Belichick's rings," a voice mail to the Meadowlands crowd to make live miserable on opposing quarterbacks and then taking the podium as if they had won the Super Bowl after driving to a 3-0 start. 

Of course, after losing six of their last seven and an emotional breakdown by Ryan, now it's time to start complaining about the lack of respect by opposing teams. 

Sometimes what goes around comes around, boys.
