Would the ownership seriously consider Spags as the new Giants head coach? He knows the New York media and seems to handle the New York media rather well. He had his chance with the Rams which didn't work out. Numerous coaches failed for various reasons when given their first opportunity. I would much rather see Spags take over rather then some college coach. Too many college coaches bomb in the NFL and New York is a pressure cooker. I was very impressed with his handling of the press today. Would do you guys think?
I totally agree with him being inconsistent on defense. You gotta love him for the Super Bowl championship, but I don’t want anything to do with that.
Did "Belchek" ever oversee two of the five worst defenses in NFL history? No,Belichick has always been pretty effing great at his own expertise and then perfected the rest of the skill set as well.
He failed miserably as HC in St. Louis and don't tell me belichick failed in Cleveland. Bill was around average in Cleveland. Spags was dreadful. Spags was dreadful in New Orleans. Ok it was bad there. He was still dreadful. He was dreadful here in 2015 and this season? What on earth did spags do right this season? He's part of the problem!!
Spags needs to go after this month. He's had plenty of chances here and elsewhere.
The road back to prominence starts with the 2018 Giants looking like a completely foreign entity.
When you fire a coach during the season you run the "risk" that the interim HC will get a few victories and win over the team...forcing the owner to give the guy a chance at the top job.
It's how you end up with John McVay as your HC.
I appreciate what Spags did in 2007, but I don't want him as the next Giants' HC.
I like the guy a lot, I really do. But his defense was disappointing this year and his resume since he left here the first time isn't pretty.
I sincerely wish him all the best going forward. Just not here.
He's not very good hc material
But moving forward, we have to go in a different direction. It is well known that he made lots of organizational errors (like he was a "mess") in St. Louis and we don't want these things rearing their ugly heads.

The new Belchek. Now get a GM and personnel guy and we are back in business fast. For years.,

this year's another great example. the Pats defense started terrible and (I think) is now the NFL's #1 scoring defense. Lil Bill knows what he's doing.
I don't want Spags as HC.
I am not saying i'd give Spags the job even if the Giants go 4-0 or 3-1 but you'd have to consider it.
Who the hell knows....his track record lately doesn't inspire me but maybe the guy has figured things out.

2 words for you: John McVay
I get that but this is just another excuse or reason why Spags has failed lately. Some defenses never quit or carry teams to victory shit has gone south on the other end. Think back to 1997 NYG. That offense sucked all year but the D played lights out. The 2016 giants weren't much different. To see this year's D completely fold when the unit was healthy is disturbing. No matter how anyone slices it this is a mark against Spags. It sure as hell isn't a positive.

maybe and only maybe if this team does a 180, maybe it's worth considering Spags. Sometimes you just never know if a guy like Spags can turn things around and sort of rectify the mistakes made earlier on.

Is he the waterboy that the Giants slighted 40 years ago? The one Sean was avenging in that ass kicking the Rams handed us?
Maybe the new HC likes what Spags has done....maybe he doesn't....Spags has escaped everything that has gone wrong with this defense for some reason....
HC most likely will bring in his own guy, unless what there is to pick from is no better than Spags....then Spags could be back as DC....
But if I am a betting man, I think we see a whole new regime...
This is crap. There were several instances early in games, early in the season when the defense failed to get off the field when they had the chance to on third down and were just as culpable in their own fatigue as the offense was. The defense has been a disappointment on their own merit; the incompetence of the offense only amplified that.
Several big 3rd downs where they let Dallas extend drives and maintain FP. Couldn't get off the field when they needed to on a night where our offense desperately needed to get out of their own end of the field.
The defense was a disappointment from Day 1.

The offense didn't exist. The Viking defense quit toward the end of last season for the same reason. If the offense didn't suffer so many injuries and become so inept, the defense would have been far more effective.

Exactly. The 18 play 90 yard yard drive in the 2nd qtr against Philly an egregiuos example
