And they won 2 within the past 10 years. Plus they'll probably draft another FQB. And they still have Eli who can win them games while a young QB sits and learns. The Giants are well set up going forward. And they'll probably get a great HC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why I said that the Giants will probably have to go out and get a veteran QB (like Josh McCown) to fill the slate If they start Rosen or Darnold behind that line, it's David Carr II Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jetster Posted December 4, 2017 Share Posted December 4, 2017 Well, its finally happened. The NY Jets are not the dumpster fire. If Bowles & Macc stay (which I agree with everyone here, that's probably a foregone conclusion), if they nail the draft & free agency, they'll have a great chance to market themselves to that young demographic in NY following football.

Bugg Posted December 4, 2017 Share Posted December 4, 2017 19 minutes ago, UnitedWhofans said: With more to come per Kim JOnes. First time the Giants have fired a coach in season since 1976. The odds of this to happen to him a year after making the postseason were huge. It also showed the Giants, like the Jets alot, pay attention to the fans, because that's the only real reason for doing this now You don't know that. That is the definition of speculation on both counts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we can negate the dorky real fans rhetoric for a min, seriously, for the first time I was ready to bite the bullit before the season even started...not like it's ******* fun your team sucks so bad you have to root against them in order for there to be hope for the future. Yet there/here I/some of was/were, right. And once again these ****ers are able to steal my thunder... my dreams...my aspirtations.

If it was the terrible season itself, they would have been gone after losing to the Niners. Office politics and miscommunication doesnt seem to be enough, the fans reaction to that miscommunication is why he is gone now. They key is the timing. It's elementary. Three out of the last 4 games at home. It would have been ugly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tell me about it. I have no doubt the Giants will find a top GM and HC to replace them with and probably take their choice of QB. As much as I hate to say it, people look at the Giants as an "honor" to be a part of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KRL Posted December 4, 2017 Share Posted December 4, 2017 19 minutes ago, nyjunc said: It's nice to see the Giants come down to the level of the other bad franchises. The guy was hired after the former coach missed the playoffs 4 straight years and 6 of 7, he led them to the playoffs and 11-5 his first year then doesn't even make year 2? I don't even think the Jets would do something like this, all b/c the fans and media which bashed Eli for years got on their social media soapbox and cried for the mediocre Eli who has now seen 2 HCs fired in less than 2 years. This is going to be fun to watch. The NYG have never been different from any other franchise. That's been the case since LT was drinking & drugging his way through the NFL. They practice situational ethics just like any other team, only the media and some delusional fans think they operated with a different set of standards.

The point is that when the Yanks are in a "down period", they still win the most games of any team in that decade. http://mcubed.net/mlb/fw1980.shtml Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
