Think TC

respects the perogatives of his coordinators and GMs in their areas of responsibility. Thats who he is. Sure he makes suggestions but the final decisions is theirs. Class act TC, can not see him bieng any other way. If he hired them he lives with them or gets rid of them (rarely). That does not go for Reese who was hired by Mara.

But the reliance on him to be a significant pass rushing starter has hurt the team for more than one season now. He's way past his peak and is a backup now. This is one of the main problems I have with the coaching and self scouting of the front office. They rely way to much on players past performances and think that means they'll give you what they once could.

That leads to band-aid fixes which is what we have seen in the 2013 and 2014 seasons. I think you always want to be a year early than a year late in sports, and the Giants always seem to be a year late on almost every place in every position.


Bingo, moespree, and you can add 2012 for good measure
It's just so messed up

You sure have drunk the Coughlin Kool-Aid. So tell me what he is responsible for. Is he just a figure head or inspirational leader?
After much consideration,

I think it's time for Tommy to retire.
The loss at Dallas  
RetroJint : 11/24/2014 9:04 pm : link
Fewell zeroed out the coverages & got burned because Williams couldn't cover the TEs & Prince got schooled by Bryant. Last night he tried coverage. Neither plan worked. Actually they worked for half the game. Against Dallas you have to win a shoot out. The Gisnts defense is simply too awful. Moore & Ayers might have played more but then Murray would have been up to about 10 yards a carry. Fewell has a thankless position. He has no linebackers or safeties. And lousy players don't suddenly become great blitzers.

Nobody would ever know that Jim Harbaugh or Andy Reid or Bill Belichick were really good coaches if you never hired someone new.
It's probably time for Fewell to go

but I don't blame him entirely for the problems on defense. I gave him a pass. There is simply very little talent on the defense. He has had shit to work with for the past 3 years. I don't care who the Giants bring in as the new defensive coordinator the results will not improve by much unless there are serious infusion of talent.

I would take a good hard look at Bowles, but he failed fairly spectacularly in philly before his success in Arizona. I'd need a lot of research


Actually, I believe that Bowles only spent half a season as Philly's DC a. Didn't he take over after their old OL coach took over as DC a and sucked balls? I think Bowles took over at that point and you can't really judge anyone under those circumstances.
