The biggest question Rex Ryan has going into this Sunday’s game is who the hell will be under center for the Patriots. He’s been forced to get creative in his search for answers. 

When Patriots receiver Julian Edelman held a conference call for Buffalo writers on Wednesday, Ryan decided to see if he could get him to spill the beans. 

This isn’t even the first time Ryan has pulled this trick. Back in 2014, the then-Jets coach jumped on a Sammy Watkins conference call to ask about his son’s progress at Clemson.
