I'm trying to think of some head coaching candidates around the league that have had head coaching experience that would be considered as a possible replacement. Ken Whisenhunt is one name that comes to mind another is Todd Haley both guys have shown themselves to be really good OC's with a lot of experience in the league and hopefully learned from their mistakes from when they where headcoaches . Who are some of the other coordinators that have had experience as a head coach that may be ready for a second shot. I know Spags can be put on the list but I really believe he is about to be fired and I do not think he would be an option anyway.
+1, Chucky for me too
I've heard that TB will bring him back, that he has mended fences with the Glazers. I'm not thrilled with hiring a guy who has been out of the league for over 10 years.
If I'm a head coach, no chance in hell I go anywhere until I know who the GM is and make sure he is one I can work with.
as for coach, no ancient relic retreads.
Maybe a one-time HC, but not looking for the hiring of the corpse of Dick Vermeil.
I'd take Caserio (in new england Belichick's entire time there pretty much) and McDaniels, or even prefer Caserio and Matt Patricia.

I want a young offensive minded coach for a new QB
Not sure why this point is ignored when throwing his name out there.
Weird that these lists seem to have the same names on it from 10 years ago.
What? Pioli was an awful GM in KC.
Let's hire an up-and-coming coordinator with new ideas who has something to prove. But first, let's get a GM who has an idea how to build in today's NFL, and also can find us this new coach and the players to execute his ideas.
Someone like Sean McVay in LA (which is ironic, given who his grandfather is). The Giants have a chance to hire people to build sustainable success, not guys who will be gone in two years when they are fully burnt out.

Patricia is a rocket scientist, I think he can handle it, but get a young offensive minded OC for the QB.
Look at the Patriots defense by month...every year.
they are the epitome of coaching up players to know their roles/schemes
when they lost Hightower I thought they were done - especially with the slow start, they're hitting their stride now.
GM: Pioli.

HC: Mike Smith
OC: Gary Kubiak (a perfect fit if Eli is the quarterback)
DC: Jim Tomsula
These are all realistic targets.
The issue may have been that he hired Todd Haley as head coach...which was forward thinking but might have been too early for him.
The Giants are mess culturally in addition to sucking on the field. Need someone to steady the ship first & foremost.
I don't envy them because the choices seem uninspiring. There's seemingly not a Bill Parcells or even half of 1 out there who's gonna come in and make Quincy Carter look like a passable NFL QB.
