Rex Ryan is never afraid to speak his mind, especially when it comes to the Patriots.
The former coach and current NFL analyst didn't hold back Monday morning on ESPN's "Get Up" when asked about Cam Newton and the Patriots offense following the 18-12 loss to the Broncos, which dropped the team to 2-3 on the year.
“Man, oh man, this looks like a disaster to me," he said. "I never saw that arm talent. He wouldn’t snap the football, he was kind of pushing the ball. He wasn’t accurate down the field, which we have seen throughout his career, but with Josh McDaniels, I give him so much credit because early in the season we [saw him be] accurate in those deals. But, this is scary to me.
"Look, we all know there’s no weapons out there and the fact we see that highlight where Cam is sitting there waiting, waiting and waiting, you have to throw to guys open and unfortunately right now I don’t know if Cam is accurate enough or has enough zip on the football to throw guys open.”
Against the Broncos, Newton was 17-for-25 passing with 157 yards and two interceptions for a QB rating of 51.6, while adding 76 yards and a touchdown on the ground.
As of now, the Patriots offense is 14th in football, but 25th in passing and a lot of those yards came against Seattle and its poor secondary.
