My Prerequisite for a Head Coach for the NYG

Tom from LI : 1/8/2018 8:10 am
Keeping it simple here, these are the 4 that are most important to me.

1. You must have been a Head Coach on some level before (college and above) I would prefer NFL Head Coaching experience. I want the candidate to have already cut their teeth and learned from their mistakes. I don't want somebody to learn on the job here.

2. You must have been a coordinator for at least 3 years. I would want the candidate to have been on the sideline, to coach and communicate with the players throughout the game. I know Spags does this. I saw Dick Lebeau do it this weekend. I want a great leader, communicator and teacher.

3.You were/are not a care taker of an already great unit. I want to see your stamp on the unit. Repair something that was in trouble. If you were the care taker, what did you do to bring it to the next level that is noticeable?

4. You have a sound philosophy that can relate easily to the players and get them to buy in. I don't want a "new sheriff in town" type or a millennial whisper that turns camp into a dance club like Mcadoo. I want this coach to be able to get through to the younger players and not only hold them accountable, but have them hold themselves accountable.

Can we stop with this? It's obnoxious. The only thing he does is take his touchdown celebrations a little too far and get really pissed at losing games. Stop acting like the next coach needs a a Ph D in criminal psychology.

single mention of calling anyone a moron there.

There's a difference between debating a topic and saying I called people morons.

You do realize we moved Pugh out of necessity and it weakened the guard position, right?

And furthermore, he didn't replace Flowers, which was the topic.

I know that's a bit much to ask to understand nuance, but I'm dealing with a fucking putz.

Ill find the moron comment.

And the whole discussion revolved around getting Hart out of the lineup and playing their best LT at LT.


Mac, may have moved him out of necessity. You are right. The new GM cut Hart in a minute.

You were dead wrong and there is more coming chump.

Read the responses there, Ace. Almost every one discusses Flowers. No mention of Hart.

Tell me where I've ever said Hart is a good player and should have stayed at Tackle?

You mention strawmen and then just keep foisting them out there.

Great stuff! BBI is a great website and you just make it better.
Besides Flowers,my biggest concern about this year's team is the ability or inability to run the ball. We have a questionable offensive line with I guess what would be called unproven runners. What do you forsee out of the running game?


The running game, even moreso than the passing game, lives and dies on the OL. I would day NYG is 50/50 on strong/weak in that department. Good enough to be effective but a very limited ceiling.

I do think Perkins is the most talented RB NYG has had in a very long time. Very good running style, low to the ground, let quickness, balance, vision. It's all there. I think it will be "good enough" but not gamebreakinig at all

The point of the discussion was to move Flowers to RT where he wouldn't be protecting Eli's blindisde, thus getting the garbage that Hart was out of the lineup, and making the blindside stronger.

If you cant admit you were wrong here, then you never will.

BTW, calling the suggestion madness is hysterical, as you did.

Strawman can wait. You were dead wrong in every aspect.

Basically, given the roster we have, you either have Flowers at Tackle or an equally flawed player there and if you move Pugh, you just move that concern to a Guard position as well.


Where does discussion of Hart come into play? Love the strawman there, Governor.

Not sure whats so incorrect about Sy's Perkins comment.  
Brown Recluse : 1/8/2018 11:02 am : link
He had a promising rookie season. There's no way anyone could have known he was going to mail it in last year.

I wouldn't be at all surprised to see Perkins and a few other players come back this season with something to prove. They aren't being handed jobs anymore without competition.

Um, if FLowers move to RT who would that eliminate?

As for where you were wrong, every statement. Literally every statement.

The starting RT has now been cut. Pugh was moved to OT, eventually full time before his injury. Hart was the worst OT in the league. Flowers was rated 57th best LT!!!

The Giants best offensive performances in the pre wr injury period were with Hart out of the lineup and Pugh at OT.

You insinuated it was playing armchair gm, a panic, madness, etc.

You are unable to understand OT is more impotrnat than guard. That the OT position couldn't ruin the season.

Where were you right?

It was obivous in preseason Gallman was more talented. Perkins is not an NFL rb and wont be on the roster next year.

Preseason? That comment was made on August 2. The Giants first preseason game wasn't until August 11th. So that comment was most likely made based off of the prior season and what they had seen in shorts and shells.

And Sy has been praising Gallman all season long.

The grand fact of the matter is, you have been wrong about this team in every way a person can be. You are a typical homer. This preseason you ripped on people for pointing out how bad the Giants O-line looked early in camp. You ripped people for suggesting they move Pugh to OT, which was obvious, and the offense is now playing far better because of it. You blindly justify every decision Mac makes, even those that are obviously stupid.

You have subservient mindset relating to authority. You have stated often how the fan should never criticize the GM/coach because we are not in meeting rooms. Instead, you criticize those indiscriminately who you consider on your level.

You are the predictable byproduct of partisan politics. Divide the ignorant masses while both parties rob you blind. You literally epitomize every flaw in mankind. Uncritical of authority and supposedly patriotic. Except, when that patriotism means loving your fellow countrymen. Cause you are nothing but a monster to your fellow Americans. Also, just the same old pathetic straw man arguments. Last week you said: "I didn't hear anyone complain when Mac went for 4th and ones last year." What in the name of fuck does BBI complaints have to do with the validity of decision? Moron.

Whats creepy is that a bully piece of shit like Fatman can constantly attack people and losers like you go along because you view him as some sort of popular crowd.

Also, that he researched a persons name, long before, and told the rest of the board that persons father was a criminal.

Hart was the centerpiece. And yes, if Pugh had started at OT the results clearly would have been better. That is beyond debate.

A few thoughts  
Matt M. : 1/8/2018 12:31 pm : link
1) I fail to see where FatMan was wrong. The argument was about moving Pugh to LT in order to move Flowers to RT. I had nothing to do with Hart and everything to do with getting Flowers away from LT. A residual effect would have been replacing the terrible Hart. But, the crux of the point was that Pugh only moved to LT last year when Flowers was hurt and moving him this year would have left a gaping hole at LG, which proved true when Pugh shifted to RT (again out of necessity caused by injury) and then hurt.

2) As for the OL, he didn't comment on it as a whole. He said reports were that Flowers came in to camp ready to work and in shape, or something to that effect. The reality is, after a shaky first couple of games, Flowers actually, by most accounts, improved this year. Does that mean he was a world beater? No. But, he became an mediocre OT, which is still a step up.

3) As for the dup handles, etc. the circumstantial evidence provided is pretty damning as those emails are almost verbatim what you began posting here. Based on the name in the email, it took less than 5 minutes of web searches to see the felon father. Who exposed this on BBI I have no clue, as I generally try not to pay attention to this stuff and try not to waste time guessing who is a dup of whom.

Go read the actual thread. It was clearly related to both Hart and Flowers.

It was also clear that the argument was centered around not risking the season on two terrible OTs. Perhaps one could argue how wrong Fatman was, but the main point is his mockery of an alternate point of view, that in retrospect was correct. Flowers will not be the LT next year and Hart will be out of the league. I urge you to read the threads in full.
LOL..  
FatMan in Charlotte : 1/8/2018 12:43 pm : link
it wasn't related to Hart. This response nails the point:

Quote:
It's pretty damn hard to respond to. Your suggestion is to put Pugh at Tackle. That alleviates the situation? Did it add to the Superbowl roster or simply shift a resource and apparently remove another resource?

It is overly dramatic say that Flowers is going to risk the season or that Pugh replacing him is going to eliminate that risk. Do I need to remind you that people really didn't like Pugh at Tackle, either?

Didn't the often-maligned Newhouse play on a SB team and get a ring? A team that got there on the strength of their offense?

Basically, given the roster we have, you either have Flowers at Tackle or an equally flawed player there and if you move Pugh, you just move that concern to a Guard position as well.


By the way, I'm still waiting to see where I called people morons or championed Hart as being a good player. But love the strawman deflection.

Simo.

I am saying this is my starting point. Every candidate is different. That is why you interview them, but they have to touch upon these 4 points at some level.

Probably should have gone with 'wish list' rather than prerequisite. You probably could have avoided Fat Man's body slam.
He gone!

1) I fail to see where FatMan was wrong. The argument was about moving Pugh to LT in order to move Flowers to RT. I had nothing to do with Hart and everything to do with getting Flowers away from LT. A residual effect would have been replacing the terrible Hart. But, the crux of the point was that Pugh only moved to LT last year when Flowers was hurt and moving him this year would have left a gaping hole at LG, which proved true when Pugh shifted to RT (again out of necessity caused by injury) and then hurt.

2) As for the OL, he didn't comment on it as a whole. He said reports were that Flowers came in to camp ready to work and in shape, or something to that effect. The reality is, after a shaky first couple of games, Flowers actually, by most accounts, improved this year. Does that mean he was a world beater? No. But, he became an mediocre OT, which is still a step up.

3) As for the dup handles, etc. the circumstantial evidence provided is pretty damning as those emails are almost verbatim what you began posting here. Based on the name in the email, it took less than 5 minutes of web searches to see the felon father. Who exposed this on BBI I have no clue, as I generally try not to pay attention to this stuff and try not to waste time guessing who is a dup of whom.

Go read the actual thread. It was clearly related to both Hart and Flowers.

It was also clear that the argument was centered around not risking the season on two terrible OTs. Perhaps one could argue how wrong Fatman was, but the main point is his mockery of an alternate point of view, that in retrospect was correct. Flowers will not be the LT next year and Hart will be out of the league. I urge you to read the threads in full.
I see nothing related directly to Hart. Additionally, we don't know where Flowers will be next year. He could be at LT, RT, or even the remote possibility of being moved to OG. I'm actually beginning to think OG might be a better stopping point than RT for him.
