not pulling his starters and knocking the Redskins out of the playoffs last year.

Other than that, I'm definitely not sad to turn the page.

He did not commit sexual harassment and I think he avoided a felony conviction of any kind.

Let's check the tape first.

worst season in decades. That said, I do have sympathy for him. He got his dream job and failed in a very public way. That has to be tough on him and his family
Benny with the good hair was a better coach

you cannot behave the way he did, especially in New York. And you can't keep saying you are on the same page with the owner when the owner clearly states that is not the case.

Like Reese, his arrogance cost him his job more than anything else. Let's hope Reese's ass hits the street very soon.

he taped his firing, so he can look at the tape and maybe see where it went wrong and get it correct.
Probably not a popular sentiment  
DC Gmen Fan : 12/4/2017 11:41 am : link
but I'm kinda disappointed in the behavior of some on BBI with regards to another human being. Yeah he was not a good coach for our fotball team but some of the names he's being called...just very unclassy. I would expect more of NYG fans.

The guy has a family and by all accounts is a good man. He was obviously over his head here. I don't think that warrants some of the vitriol being thrown his way.

It's just football.

Keep being who you are don’t forget those who hurt you and remember an eye for an eye. This is a shit show management trying to make you the fall guy for a fucking cry baby QB. Thanks for being man enough to make the tough call as the HC, God Speed. These same fans will now all be crying fire the next guy since winning is a long dream once again for this franchise.

+1.. I hope he gets a good job somewhere else.. but this had to happen.. you can't expect to screw up Eli Manning demotion.. Instead of bringing the point to Eli that if game is out of reach, other QBs will come in.. he went ahead and straight up benched the guy..
Best of luck to him going forward.
Honestly?

WTF?
If it was solely the performance of the team this year, then I would  
Peter from NH (formerly CT) : 12/4/2017 11:53 am : link
find something gracious to say.

However, the Eli saga and his media presence etc makes me just think he is not a leader in any way. I have never rooted for people to be fired before the last week.

So happy to see this guy hit the road.
You can't blame him alone,  
BIGbluegermany : 12/4/2017 11:55 am : link
you have to blame the GM,the Players and other Coaches as well.It is the right decision,of course.

Yup he’ll get them back when the high school team he’s coaching defeats the East Rutherford high school team. He’ll stick it right to them!!
I thank him for the 11-5 season last year

RetroJint : 12/4/2017 12:02 pm : link
Thanks for the 11-win season last year. Thanks for beating Dallas twice last year.

This year got away from you. Unfortunately that happens . Hard work is not always rewarded . Learn from your mistakes. You had plenty of things that went wrong that were outside your control . 20 on IR being one of them. Still it's understandable that they let you go. I do appreciate you walking the point on a matter that will make it far easier for the next guy in to address the issue.

Happy Holidays. Enjoy spending a couple of years' worth of Mara-Tish money . Get rid of the jell. Better luck next time unless you're playing the Giants . Peace.

Ray Handley appreciates Ben.

Something to consider Bill Belichick went 11-5 and the next year 5-11 got his walking papers. Wish you all and more than he has accomplished after that wonderful decision was made.
I think it’s unfair to compare him to handley  
LatHarv83 : 12/5/2017 8:02 am : link
I’ll say that. In his first year he got us to the playoffs after 4 years being out. The 2nd season was a disaster but he didn’t even get to finish. If you divorce yourself from some of the extenuating circumstances firing him does seem rash on the surface given those facts in a vacuum, but it was the right move. I don’t think he’s ready and I’m not sure he has the skill set to ever be

I do think he did a good job as coordinator with Coughlin
Ben McAdoo has at least one fan.  
Section331 : 12/5/2017 10:39 am : link
Dragon has been butt hurt since yesterday, crying about Benny & the Mess's firing. Every post is either crying about Eli or moaning about McAdoo getting canned.

What a loser.

LOL...And here's your proof that no matter what the facts are, no matter how obvious something is, there will always be someone with their head so far up their ass they can't see it
Thanks for everything Ben.

And, I hear there might be an opening in Dallas soon. If you need a letter of recommendation, BBI could make that happen!
