Wes Welker would have been proud of the internet for how it roasted Rex Ryan on Monday night.
Ryan made his national TV analyst debut alongside Beth Mowins for the second half of a “Monday Night Football” doubleheader on ESPN.
The broadcast was especially important, as Mowins became the first woman to do play-by-play for an NFL game in 30 years, although it ultimately was sideline reporter Sergio Dipp who stole the show for all the wrong (or right?) reasons.
But Ryan didn’t get off scot-free. We should mention it’s probably very difficult to do what the former Jets and Bills head coach attempted to do Monday night. TV commentating is hard, especially when you’re doing it for the first time (no matter how easy Tony Romo made it look Sunday).
And the internet was ready and willing to pick apart Ryan’s performance, which was uneven at best.
And, of course, there were foot jokes. Plenty of foot jokes. And if you need a quick refresher on why there were foot jokes, well, just click this and get caught up.
Like we said, somewhere Welker is nodding in approval.
