I keep reading McAdoo is safe but Reese is a goner..

Sean : 10/8/2017 9:38 pm
That better not be the case. A functional franchise does NOT saddle a new GM with a coach. EA to Reese was a bit different as Reese was already in the organization. If Reese is gone, the new GM should calibrate with ownership and hire a new HC.

IF McAdoo is retained, I hope Reese returns as well. Otherwise, this will continue to be a franchise with a ton of turnover.
If that's the case

Many would have been saying the same thing about Parcells after the 83 season Young considered replacing him.

I blame Reese more than MacAdoo.

No respectable GM

Takes the job if they have to keep the HC. 0-16 means Mac can’t come back
Fine by me

Reese has sucked for so long. Accorsi got the Super Bowl wins not Reese.
You’re losing to teams less talented  
Rflairr : 10/8/2017 11:19 pm : link
That’s not on the GM. The GM put together a team people were saying had Super Bowl potential. He can’t coach them too
a team without an offensive line

can not be a super bowl contender, even if the press predicted it.

This post makes no sense.

Six seasons.

Five without playoffs.

Reese has failed.

Miserably.

Dead man walking.

And rightfully so. He has more than earned it.
This season has been an unmitigated disaster. We can't  
Jim in Hoboken : 10/8/2017 11:34 pm : link
afford the one change at a time approach the Maras are so fond of. Everybody should go. No GM gets 3 years to fix a defense and then another 3 years to fix the offense. And McAdoo is in over his head, it's clear as day.

I sincerely hope that Mara doesn't use the injuries as an excuse for this season, but I can certainly see it.

An argument could be made for 2007 (but the guy at the helm gets the credit), but 2011? How many of Accorsi's players were on the 2011 team?

Looking back, the 2011 title, while magical and entirely legitimate, had a lot of luck and we just simply caught lightning in a bottle for 6 weeks. We should readily admit it now.
Looking for some Reese grese to ease

His way out of the organization along with Marc Ross and Chris Mara.
It’s a cabal that reinforces their erronious player evaluations.

Oh really? Even if you gave Accorsi credit for the first. How the hell can you give him credit for one 4 yrs after he left. lol

where do you keep reading McAdoo is safe but Reese is a goner?

Is this reported by a beat reporter? National news? Is it someone's opinion?

Would like to know the source to give it credence.
They should both be gone ...  
Beer Man : 10/9/2017 10:18 am : link
Reese for the bad job he has done, and Mac because he is in way over his head, and the HC is the one coach that you don't want learning to coach while on-the-job.

I haven't seen this anywhere.

It wouldn't make any sense to fire a GM but keep a HC in place. Especially not a guy like McAdoo who has certainly not earned it.

For now... it wouldn't be wise for an owner to admit they might fire the GM and HC only 4-5 weeks into the season, regardless of how bad the team doIng. That would create an extremely toxic locker room. Yes this team sucks, but they do have talented players who are young enough to still be part of the team after whatever happens in the upcoming offseason.
McAdoo can't stay when Reese is fired

No GM is walking into that situation saddled to a HC (see Idzik/Ryan once again)

The team was in disarray prior to the injuries. The Mara's have been around football long enough to know when a HC is in over his head.
