I know the question's been posed in other threads - what if we end up with none of Patricia, Shurmur or McDaniels? But I am not sure anyone has spelled out how plausible this scenario is. It's not some crazy one in a hundred bank shot. It's not even a matter of all 3 turning us down. It could happen if just one guy (Patricia) delays his decision a bit and then turns us down.
1) Giants and Lions both offer Patricia. He's unsure which to take and wants more time. Since he's number one on both lists they give him time.
2) Arizona offers Shurmur - even if he prefers NYG he can't pass and accepts
3) Indy offers McDaniels - again even if he prefers NYG he can't turn down a live offer and accepts
4) Patricia finally decides and takes the Lions job
5) Giants???
“Rapoport thinks Wilks is going to return to Carolina. If true, one team is going to be caught with their pants down as these 3 guys are the only men in the running for these 4 jobs. It would be a colossal embarrassment if Mara hired Gettleman quickly in part to get a jump on the HC search (as he mentioned) and in the end, that team left standing when the music stops is the NYG.”
After rushing and misfiring on Mc and TC, Eli fallout and complete FO overall no way they botch this by being caught with their pants down.

The Colt's are going to be pants-less.
Look we are the most attractive job. Great draft pick, with an established QB, and attractive pieces on both sides of the ball. You could pick your own Qb, or stay with Eli.
Matt... come on. Stop already

But but but Bob Kratch stakes his life on it.
NFL teams are not stupid and especially not the giants!! Everyone knows the process and the the time constraints.
The giants already made their decision and they are probably working out details as some of you post this garbage!!
This is all I see and hear!! The giants aren't attractive to potential coaches. We are a mess, blah blah blah
As for whether the Giants job is attractive or not is up for debate, but I default to job security. If a coach does a good job and represents the organization well, the Giants will give that guy every opportunity to coach the team for 10 years, even if he goes 7-9 for 2 years straight. You can't say that about the other teams. If you add in that there is talent on this team and the #2 pick, the job is not unattractive.
Are George Young or Reese still here?
Golf clap.
Right because George young and Reese are still here. Scream and holler all you want when the speculated top 3 (shurmur, Patricia and McDaniels) take jobs elsewhere.
Lots of coaches wouldn’t want to deal with that.
THe last one was not being caught with pants down it was just stupid handling of the draft (and not just those examples) under Reese.
Second time today I agree completely with you. It is pretty funny. For those freaking out, why are you? All the teams mentioned are looking at the same guys, thus nobody can actually be signed (wink wink) before hand. Unless you think the others are negotiating with agents but the Giants are just waiting for the candidates current teams to play their final games before negotiating....

No, an NFL franchise run by educated, hard working professionals who have brought us to 5 Super Bowls have no contingencies in place for anything. It's almost like some of you have no perspective on anything and worry just to worry.

Whiny bunch of hand-wringing washwomen.
Everyone...just be patient. When the Patriots lose, or after their Super Bowl, we will have our guy and everyone will know. Just be patient and relax.
Obviously I believe it will be one of the Patriots coordinators.

I guess all the bloggers believed the hype that everyone wanted the Giants job.
Then they're pussies and not wanted in NY.
I think there are a number of factors bogging this job down. 1. The Eli Manning/QB situation. The increasing involvement of Ownership. The giant media market that is NY where every difficult move that has to be made in the coming offseason will be under the strongest microscope in football.
Lots of coaches wouldn’t want to deal with that.
LOL
I really don't think BB is going anywhere but I have to wonder what made Bob Kratch go over the top on this subject last week.
any of the two, McDaniels or Patricia, in NE would have to wait when done to hire. However, if there is truth to the turmoil in NE between BB, Kraft, etc..then something further could transpire as in BB leaving. it leaves risks in seeing if so..but..it seems most whom you'd expect to shoot this "pipe dream" down that are close to team ..aren't quite doing so. that leads to one believe some "smoke"...
just something isn't right and this isn't dying down..js
+1 f the rest.

I don't think it's BB.
If he left NE, I could see him taking a year off and resurfacing with a team like Dallas or the Redskins.
Salt and pepper on the stew that is BBI.

No worries, Slade says Belichick is the guy. ;)
This is BBI Hold Em. If you put all your chips in and you lose, you have to leave the BBI table

Until they announce Cowher.
Dude I really wouldn’t be surprised
I do have a funny feeling it could be something out of left field like Cowher. They are being pretty shifty this go around.

think about this..and is or may be a pipe dream..so be it..but if BB wants full control..break free from ne..come coach here..getts is up there in age..when getts says enough is enough..BB take over
$$$$ is coveted

No, we aren't going back to Fassel.
None of the guys in question have Gruden's ring.
