Bill Belichick Not a Top Defensive Coach, Jets Cornerback Antonio Cromartie SaysRex Ryan isn't the only Jets figure who likes to poke the Pats.

New York cornerback Antonio Cromartie got into the fun on Saturday, dissing New England head coach Bill Belichick's defensive skills.

"Rex is first on the list and [Dick] LeBeau's second," Cromartie said when asked about defensive coaching abilities, according to Newsday.

He was then asked about Belichick.

"Did I say his name?" Cromartie asked. "It's Rex and LeBeau. I got a one and a two, not a one, a two and a three."

Belichick, who has been lauded across the league for his defensive prowess, was a defensive coordinator for many years before leading the Patriots to five Super Bowl appearances and three titles as New England's head coach.
