FLORHAM PARK, N.J. — New York Jets coach Rex Ryan says he felt “a bit disrespected” by the New England Patriots throwing a deep pass with the game well in hand.

The Patriots were ahead 31-14 with 30 seconds left in the fourth quarter Sunday when Tom Brady threw long for Randy Moss on third-and-6 from their 45-yard line. The pass fell incomplete, but riled up Ryan.
Ryan, who created controversy in the offseason when he said he didn’t come to New York to “kiss Bill Belichick’s rings,” said Monday he was “surprised” by the Patriots’ playcall.
Ryan added that he didn’t know if Belichick was behind the call, saying it might have been something Brady and Moss did on their own.
