Rex Ryan unhappy Chiefs’ video board didn’t show some replays

After his team lost at Kansas City today, Bills coach Rex Ryan was unhappy with someone you might not expect: The Chiefs’ video board operator.

Ryan said after the game that today’s game was the first time he ever experienced an inability to get another look at a close play by looking up at the Jumbotron. Ryan seemed to think the Chiefs weren’t showing close plays to avoid helping the Bills decide whether to challenge.

“That’s the first time you don’t see any plays,” Ryan said, via ESPN. “I think there’s a league rule that you need to usually get to see some. Maybe I’m wrong on that.”

One of the turning points of the game came when the Chiefs hit a 37-yard pass to Jeremy Maclin. Replays appeared to show that Maclin didn’t make the catch, but the officials ruled that he caught it, and Ryan didn’t challenge.

“The 37-yarder, I wasn’t aware of it because again, I wasn’t seeing the video on it, and again, so from my vantage point, I thought he caught the ball,” Ryan said. “That was from my vantage point. Obviously, I would have challenged it if I would have known there was any question whatsoever on a 37-yard play that flipped the game. We were in complete control of that game and then they threw some balls over our heads. Obviously I would have challenged.”

Ryan said he doesn’t have one member of his staff who is tasked with monitoring replays and telling him when to challenge.

“A lot of times everybody will be up there, but I’m not saying anybody in particular is advising me because it never worked out,” he said. “Every decision is my decision, and so it’s my responsibility.”

It’s Ryan’s responsibility, but he also wishes the Chiefs’ video board operator would have taken responsibility for putting all close plays on the big screen.

Those idiots don't have someone in charge of looking at replays?

[KC_Lee]

:deevee::deevee::deevee:

[TimBone]

Hahahahahahaha....what a douche. Your fault you don't have someone on staff assigned. Don't cry sour grapes.

[DaFace]

There's no rule about showing replays in the stadium as far as I know. If Rexy doesn't have anyone on his staff he trusts to help make those calls, that's on him.

[eDave]

That there is some poor sportsmanship.

[MotherfuckerJones]

Ya I'm sure he would've challenged just like he wasted a challenge on a play that wasn't going to be overturned. He's an idiot.

[MotherfuckerJones]

Why not review Hogans catch then? Rexy youz a bitch.

[Saccopoo]

That's the excuse he's going with?

Yeesh...

[TLO]

Go suck toes.

[TribalElder]

If we are doing that shit
LMAO

[cdcox]

Jumbotrongate begins.

[MMXcalibur]

That's called "home-field advantage".
Why would the Chiefs help the opposing team when they aren't required too?

[jjchieffan]

I always assumed that every team had someone upstairs watching replays. That's just crazy that they don't.

[BigMeatballDave]

Boo fucking hoo, Rex.

[Strongside]

He can see all of the replays while he's watching us play from his couch in a few weeks.

[ThaVirus]

[BigMeatballDave]

Stupid thread title is stupid.

[BigMeatballDave]

Oh, and the thread starter should eat a dick for suggesting the Chiefs are cheaters.

[Rausch]

God he's a fucking idiot...

[KChiefs1]

Rex needs to hire the Royals video replay guy.

[-King-]

He's right. They showed the slow mo of the play we challenged a few times before we decided to challenge it. They didn't show any replays for the plays they challenged.

But that's the point of homefield advantage. They likely do the same in the Bill stadium too.

[Bwana]

Go suck on a foot or something, fetish boy.

[EPodolak]

The most ridiculous thing I've heard. I'd hate to be a Buffalo fan after that loss.

[BigRedChief]

There's no rule about showing replays in the stadium as far as I know. If Rexy doesn't have anyone on his staff he trusts to help make those calls, that's on him.This!

It was my understanding that every team has staff devoted to replays now. He doesn't trust his.....get some new ones.

[keg in kc]

Every stadium everywhere doesn't play replays that could hurt the home team in a review. What a doofus.

[KC_Lee]

Sounds like Rexy is looking at a riverfront house on the Cry-Me-A river.

[Sully]

Fuck off, clown.

[Why Not?]

Wow. If you didn't think Rex was a moron before, this is inexcusable. Not having a guy upstairs to buzz you on replays is plain stupidity in today's NFL

[dannybcaitlyn]

Welp ,I guess you can give your brother Rob a job now.

[Kman34]

This dumbass will never win anything.... No attention to details..

[Discuss Thrower]

Home field Jumbotron operators have always made a point to limit the opposition from seeing close plays on the board ever since replay was instituted.

[DaNewGuy]

Stop crying Rex LMAO

[Rausch]

This dumbass will never win anything.... No attention to details..

TERRIBLE in game coach.

TERRIBLE...

[milkman]

Rex Moryan.

"It's not [like] where this guy has that job to do it, or whatever. There's other jobs in there. And if you don't show the replay, then he can't see it, either. So it doesn't matter. If you can't see a replay, then how is anybody up there going to know to challenge or not?"

Rex has never heard of a DVR.

[Bugeater]

Well gee Rex, maybe the fact that they're not showing a replay should clue you in that something's up. Or put a goddamn TV in your booth or get a fucking Verizon phone with NFL Mobile.

[dj56dt58]

funny, the announcers stated the bills had the same access as to what they are showing on cbs

[Deberg_1990]

Expecting the opposing stadium to give you any help?


ROFL

Get the **** outta here Rex

[gblowfish]

The video guy was busy watching foot fetish videos on You Tube.

[okcchief]

I was wondering who the fuck was advising him. Makes perfect sense. You absolutely need someone upstairs in front of a TV advising you. That's on him. It may have very well cost them the game.

[GloryDayz]

He's a pussy.

Hell, if I had my way we would have bought a foghorn and played it just as long as the pats did to him last week..

[Rain Man]

Standard practice in the NFL. When I went to the Green Bay game, they didn't show replays of the kickoff where the Packer player backed into the end zone.

[NJChiefsFan]

He should have challenged the Hogan play. That play cost him and they would have won it. A coach next to him told him not to, you can see it, so lets not pretend like he isn't listening to people.

The Maclin play they likely weren't going to win anyway. But this is on him for not having a guy upstairs. Even if a stadium does show the replay, what if they show the wrong one first or the other team rushes up for another play. Amazing how many pro coaches let things like this slip.

[Iowanian]

Next trip I hope the video guy throws up a gif of deuce bigslo rubbing some big lady foot instead of close plays.

[dtebbe]

Such total BS. This is commonplace at any NFL stadium. I can think of at least 4 where I've seen it: Atlanta, Jacksonville, Tampa, Tennessee.

It's called HOME FIELD advantage for a reason. Bitch.

DT

[Rausch]

This! ROFL

[Mr. Flopnuts]

LMAO This isn't new! They've talked about it for a decade in regards to home field advantage. Hilarious that foot boy is trying to play this card. Clearly he's embarrassed over a FEW calls today that they should've challenged and didn't. Oops! Go home Rex. You're drunk!

[Buehler445]

I'm with everybody that said he should have someone in the booth. Mitch and Len have the TV broadcast, so I'm sure the video is available.

LOL @ Rex Ryan. Glad that asshat isn't here.

[TimeForWasp]

This is taken out of context. You can watch the video on the team site. He does mention it, but was wishy washy and not really using it as an excuse. This got blown out of proportion.

[lawrenceRaider]

Has anything ever been Rex Ryan's fault?

[MotherfuckerJones]

Has anything ever been Rex Ryan's fault?

No and he probably thinks his teams are unfairly penalized. What an undisciplined pile of shit of a team.
