AS if losing wasn’t frustrating enough, Bills coach Rex Ryan has a bone to pick with Seahawks coach Pete Carroll and a Seattle NFL fan who taunted Buffalo assistant Kathryn Smith.
Ryan rallied to the defence of Smith, the NFL’s first fulltime female assistant, who was the target of a sexist taunt.

Rochester’s WROC-TV filmed a male fan yelling “Waitress!” at Smith and asking her to get him a soda.
“Hey waitress! Waitress! Waitress! Can I have a Pepsi please,” he’s heard yelling.
Ryan called what the fan yelled as being “ridiculous” and “classless.”
A woman beside the sexist fan called out the behaviour and slapped him, which instantly saw the man stop and turn around.

Of the three Bills road games I've covered (NE, MIA, SEA), this is the first time I've heard an opposing fan go after Kathryn Smith.— Prescott Rossi (@PrescottRossi) November 8, 2016
Ryan also responded sarcastically when informed Carroll was unhappy the Bills coach called Seahawks cornerback Richard Sherman “an ass.”
Speaking on a conference call on Tuesday, Ryan joked he forgot to check with Carroll first about what his appropriate response should’ve been.
Sherman caused a stir after making a play on the Bills sideline by exchanging words with Ryan in the second half of Buffalo’s 31-25 loss on Monday night.
