Lets get Mr Mara's opinion on the offensive now.

He saw the issue clearly in 2014 ... I wonder what he thinks now.

All better now!

Front office is doing a great job acquiring good lineman. All we needed was new coaches and that cutting edge west coast short game. Mission accomplished.
the offense

is still broken and will continue to be broken until the OL is fixed. No one on here should have confidence in Reese actually fixing the OL anytime soon. He's done a good job in a lot of areas but has failed miserably every year basically with the OL

Was this the same interview when he blasted Gilbride for not developing world-class talent like Jernigan?

The House of Squint remains irritating . He let Coughlin go with a curt, "Tom has had enough chances." To which TC undoubtedly said under his breath , "Yeah. Blow me."

What busts this guy's balls is that he sees 20 million a year playing like the co-tenant 's QB who is getting maybe 1.2.
Mara won't address unless this team goes 0-4

Much too early now
The OL needs a complete revamp!

Cowboys blitzed on just 3 of 41 dropbacks (7%), per ESPN Stats & Info. They produced 3 sacks and INT with a standard four-man rush.

That is the scary part of thinking things will change with O-line due to OBJ coming back, they did not need to blitz to destroy the giants passing game. I realize Beckham puts pressure on a D but not sure what he can do about that!

Got sacked last night to but he also got his team into the end zone. See how many QB's did not get sacked if U want to cry about sacks our QB got sacked but he made 39 drop backs with no big plays. I agree we don't have the best OL in football but we sure have a QB who does not make the other guys on offense better. Was the game plan really to throw 2-5 yards passes all night if not then why did that happen?
Can you imagine just how ugly things will be when we play a team

with an above average front four?

The Chiefs, Eagles, Broncos, etc. are going to eat us alive. It will be like the Minnesota game last year; we'll be running 2-man routes because the rest of the guys will be needed to block.

I love our defense. I know they weren't perfect last night, but I heart them.
Mara is really at fault.

Let's be honest. They wanted a change. Forced McAdoo on TC. Then hired him he was was some second coming. That he was the one and only after he was u replaceable. And that Eli didn't want to learn a new O.


What is obvious is the Giants ownership is too involoved again.
If we have sub par season in part because of the O-line  
BestFeature : 9/11/2017 6:22 pm : link
I would fire Reese because of that. Complete negligence.
You cannot listen to anything John Mara says at this point...  
EricJ : 9/11/2017 6:27 pm : link
It was his decision to keep Reese. His decision to hire McAdoo. He owns this team in more ways than one. The guy is also a spin doctor just like every other owner. Trying to create a positive outlook because he is always selling. Selling tickets, the future... everything.

If he says he likes what he sees then that is all you need to hear to know to discredit most of what he says..
Mara won't like swallowing the last year of Eli's contract  
joe48 : 9/11/2017 7:09 pm : link
So maybe he can be a $20M QB consultant like A-Rod.

He would be better off swallowing whatever is left on McAdoo's deal. Promote Spags and hire an OC who can actually call plays and scheme around the weaknesses they do have. Guy is a an offensive idiot savant. Without any savant.
I think Mara will reserve judgment

Until season is over. The team MVP missed week one.
Part of me wants to put Huge Blame on Reece  
Bluesbreaker : 9/11/2017 11:03 pm : link
But did we not change a lot of our scouting teams recently
He started out with two great drafts but from 2009-2013 the drafts have been less that stellar the worst being 2011 with the only pick worth mentioning is Prince and you know the story there . 2012 was also a poor draft due in part to injury to David Wilson who I think could have been a utility weapon returner specialist .
2013 We got Pugh and Hankins the latter departed . But was a decent player .
So he knocked it out of the park in 2014 OBJ alone makes it a successful draft add to that Richberg Bromley Behre and Kennard .
2015 brought us Flowers and Collins who ended up being better than most teams thought he would hindsight would make him a top 10 pick !
2016 so far so good but much depends on Apple and Thompson especially Apple another top 10 pick as was Flowers .
2017 To me this entire draft depends on Webb if he is not the heir apparent than it will have a huge impact on whether or not this Draft grades positively .
So in 11 years he potentially has 6 years in the A category and 1 year a B and the rest were graded lower
I literally did this in 10 minutes and you can argue either way and it does not take into account free agency
So as of recently he got out of his slump and has done well but I really question this year in particular but
the jury is still out no way you can really grade it until at least two seasons .
