Former NFL Head Coach Buddy Ryan Dead
Retired NFL Coach Buddy Ryan has passed away.
FOX’s Jared Max has more:
Buddy Ryan coached in the NFL for 35 seasons. Seven years a “head” coach between the Philadelphia Eagles and Arizona Cardinals, Buddy Ryan became a national sports figure in the mid 1980’s as defensive coordinator for the Chicago Bears.
He introduced the “46” defense that helped the 1985 Bears post a 15-1 record and then a 46-10 blowout of the New England Patriots in Super Bowl 20, a victory that ended with Ryan carried off the field on the shoulders of his defensive stars.
Buddy Ryan’s twin sons, Rex and Rob both coach the Buffalo Bills.
