If his mind is made up why isn't the headline "McDaniels to Indy."?
Perhaps they mean he is down to those two as opportunities but not that either has offered the job yet. Maybe he pulled himself out of the running for other openings.
Indy has Luck.
However, Jacksonville has the best defense (and they are very young), Texans have Watson and a solid, sometimes very good, defense, and Tennessee has the best running game/Oline plus Mariota.
McDaniels would be showing incredible confidence in himself to take that job, with that owner.
Their choice of coaches. Them chosing another team wasn t suppose to be part of the equation.
No, we learned that in 1993 when the Giants had to go down to their third choice for head coach.
Coughlin wasn't ready to leave BC yet, Wannstedt chose the Bears.
Wannstedt chose the Bears because he didn't want to coach in the same divison against his pal Jimmy Johnson. And he ended up sucking as a Head Coach anyway.
read that again and thats why i want him as our head coach
doesn't mean he'll be a good Head Coach necessarily.
oh without a doubt... but i would rather a guy who can make a salad out of shit than a guy who was handed all the ingredients
but thats the thing...HC these days are more CEO's they kinda make sure everything runs smoothly. They are def part of the game planning and schemes but since they are needed for leadership and running the team the coordinators are actual more important in terms of week to week scheming/play calling.
the big question would you want your coach to be a great coordinator or a great leader of men?
mess her and he'd have Luck or his backup who came from he Patriots this season in a trade.
Can people please stop with this I told you so crap? Nobody cares. Unless you want to take ne down to AC and win me some dough, i dont give a squirt. You really think people here remember posts youve made weeks ago pr3dicting the HC of Indy?
it certainly seems like the Giants are waiting for a big name.
To me it seems like the team is doing it’s due deligence and isn’t going to rush their decision like last time. And if they lose middle of the pack candidates along that’s fine.
Offensive Line? You have Luck who's coming off an injury to his shoulder, and then you have the Giants who have the 2nd pick and a GM who publicly announced he's going to fix the O-Line. Good Luck with Luck!
Has the #3 pick. Only they know about the prospects of Lucks health and future. IDK about the AL contract, but maybe they and/or JMc see the guy for Indy's future and can pick him, with the type QB coach that can help the QB fit what JMc wants.
I can name several guys that the new coach couldhire as OC, that would do some very good things with OBJ and Engram. Don't need McDaniels as coach for that
He isn't well liked anywhere but maybe Tennessee. IF it isn't with the Titans its staying in New England. Saying he hasn't changed much from his first run with Denver. Patricia was the coveted Patriot but his friendship with Quinn (which apparently is no secret) is why everyone is saying he'll be in Detroit the moment he's available.

Apparently it's not mutual or no deal in place yet.

Wilks doesn't. Patricia doesn't.
Shurmur was HC for the Browns, which almost doesn't count, and was interim HC for Philly.
Studesville has been Ass't HC as well as RB coach. (The "He's never been promoted" line isn't really true.)
None of these are "proven" HCs at any level. Judging by the list, that isn't the priority for the Giants that it seemed to be.
The only "proven" HC who seems to be in the mix at all is... Bill Belichik.
+1
so Wilk(e)s is a big name?
Wilks or Shurmur....I would love to get my hands on Shurmur's offense but Wilks does project like a Tomlin type coach.
I would be more concerned about was OC we pick with Wilks...if we get a young dynamic up and coming OC then Wilks would be my choice.
And if it's Wilks, we'll obviously know by Tuesday night or Wednesday, so he can start hiring his assistants.

That you have to hire one of these guys
According to TMS, Wilks has to be hired to stick with the PC movement.
Detroit
Anyone who gives McDaniels total control again after what happened in Denver deserves what they will get.

He wouldn't be the coordinator if he was the coach. How does that translate?
You sound really intelligent.

Locker room mess? 1 guy is a mess? Besides Gettleman will have that sorted out.

But, Maybe he is waiting on an offer from the Giants?

Thanks for that analysis.
