"I would’ve fixed it in a New York minute," Ryan claimed. "But, that being said, they couldn’t pony up the money, or I would've been there."

“You brought in a guy that was 29th in the league his last two years at Minnesota, the enthusiasm he brings when he left, that’s the guy that’s gonna inspire you?” Ryan said. “This can go really bad for Dallas.”
