Might be stupid, but at this point, with how the season has gone, it is all about optics
Seems like whenever there is a serious injury, especially one that calls for the cart to take the player off the field, the head coach comes over to check on his player.
It really bothered me that McAdoo didn't come off the sideline to check on OBJ after the injury.
The funny thing is they did give us a camera shot of McAdoo on the sidelines while OBJ was on the ground crying in pain. McAdoo was buried in his playsheet
Eli Apple was a shit pick
really shit

Was he at least holding it right side up.
Talented men of integrity. Heavy handed guys.
Coughlin would've been out there with OBJ. Coughlin ehas doneeither before.
I liked McAdoo. Today, not so much.
I've really done a 180 on this guy - I try not to be one of those reactionary fans that flip flops with every bounce of the ball, but all of the really great qualities I felt he displayed last year have basically been erased this year.
I get that he's trying to instill a certain culture/philosophy, but he seems like a guy who has blindspots and is too stubborn to admit when something he's doing is failing.
I don't think he's long for this job.
He isn't leaving unless the team wants him gone. If no long term deal, the next three years will be 5th year option, franchise tag, franchise tag.
I have the feeling OBJ now no longer trusts Eli and will not stay as long as Eli is QB or he sees an immediate turnaround on the O next season...in other words he plays it out and says goodbye asap.
Yes. Quite a few similarities.
#1 being he's not a player's coach.
Yep. As unfortunate as it is to say as a Giants fan, but I completely agree with you. His problem is that he thinks the solutions are within, when he's not built a foundation without that can function correctly and allow him to tend to these kinds of things.
So disappointing. He's young and may get another chance somewhere, but we'll have to see. It's not like his offensive prowess is guaranteeing him another shot in this league, unless he takes a job as a position coach.
