Former NFL coach, defensive coordinator Buddy Ryan dies at 82

Buddy Ryan, the famed inventor of the 46 defense who was carried off the field by his players after the Bears' victory in Super Bowl XX, died Tuesday morning.
He was 82.
Ryan spent 26 seasons as an NFL coach and was a part of three staffs that appeared in Super Bowls, but his crowning achievement was as defensive coordinator of the 1985 Bears.
Ryan, the father of Bills head coach Rex Ryan and Buffalo defensive coordinator Rob Ryan, was one of the most brash, bold men in NFL history.
