Patriots’ defensive coordinator Matt Patricia is likely to become the Detroit Lions’ next head coach, league sources told ESPN. More on Sunday NFL Countdown.
BB to Giants! Pats prefer McDaniel over MP. MP to Lions. Shurmer is fallback option for Giants.
This is an update to what I said a couple days ago:
Belichick may return.
He is still trying to mend the fences in NE and is focused on the playoffs. Secrecy in NE is absolute - as it was when Parcells left. If BB comes to the Giants MP will coach the Pats. Otherwise, if BB stays MP will coach the Giants. Hard to give odds at this point. McDaniel will go elsewhere.
BB decision factors
Relationship with Kraft is worse than it was
Relationship with Brady is worse than it was
Brady is aging with no heir apparent
Would have to break in two new coordinators in 2018
May lose other coaches as well to Patricia and McDaniel
Has lost some key lieutenants in the front office
Giants job is open THIS year
Better to leave one year too early than one year too late
Is that you Gary Myers? lol
LOL Busted!!!! I know you all will not believe it. Just remember that you heard it here first.

OK, you'll win the BBI scoop of the year award. LOL

This sounds bizarre.
In order for MP to coach the Pats this means there has to be some kind of conspiracy between MP and BB for MP to wait to do what BB does. Blows the idea of secrecy out of the water.
On the Giants side:
Eli is aging with no heir apparent
BB would have to break in all new coordinators and coaches in NY.
BB has no lieutenants in NY front office.
BB already has complete control in New England.

Cant get into details. Pats are prepared with a plan B. (Originally thought to be MP actually is JM).
To your points: The Giants situation is not better than the Pats. However, it would represent a change and a chance to start over. Best landing spot if he moves on from Pats.
Some pieces to work with
BB likes Mara and Gettleman
Some good players on the roster
The #2 pick in the draft

Not to sound rude, but are you considered an "asshat"? Secondly, how confident are you in this prediction?
i grew up on long island and have lived in a dozen other states. let me tell you that many people have 0 desire to live anywhere near NYC congestion that is a total pain in the ass and also dangerous as in auto accidents. you couldn't pay them enough!
on the flip side, some love the limelight of NYC and would sprint here!
if you don't think this is a factor, keep putting your head in the sand. the giants will either be a magnet or a repellent.
now on the football end, you would think working for the mara's and tisch's would be a great situation, and it is. but the media makes it the absolute worst place to coach and just grinds on you, especially if you aren't from the area.
as far as NE coaches, i bet they would love to stick it to the giants since losing to them twice in the super bowl, otherwise they would be a super dynasty. yeah, there easily could be something personal here.

A "basshat" the info sounds fishy and too good to be true. HOWEVER - I did hear something and nothing that has happened to date has made me think its wrong. At any rate I did not hear it was a done deal only that it did have "legs".

Continued interviewing? How so?
I thought he went to Detroit after meeting with the Giants.
No. Detroit interviewed him NE same day as the Giants.
