Or we get their leftovers.

And I still trust him and his connections more than any of our current beat writers.

I feel like the Giants served their fans leftovers for the past 5 years.

Not based on the way MG worded things.

With his ties to the organization I expect him to be targeted for either the OC or QB coach jobs.

this board would erupt.

Valentine and Leonard are not what I call reliable reporters -- they are what I call "self-important" and prone to sell themselves into things real easy

it is not over regardless unless the Giants want Wilks. The rest technically cannot agree to anything and honestly with multiple teams competing for their services why would they.

If more of the "candidates", for any of these openings, were free to sign on (not in playoffs now) then the ones in the playoffs would be more inclined to decide sooner. But,. Patricia, McDaniels and Shurmur are in the playoffs still. They are their own competition. Each one seems to also be leading candidates for different jobs. If the Giants were blown away by Wilks it would be done already. No reason to wait and no reason to do further interviews. But, clearly they have guys who are in the playoffs still rated higher and are playing the waiting game with other teams.

Is a done deal just waiting on the end of playoffs....... JUST A GUT FEELING......

Watch what Detroit does. If they start moving elsewhere, means they are out on Matty P.

is the only one to take seriously regarding the Giants. Earned his stripes the right way.

If after they meet this week and decide they like either of candidates who are still in the playoffs, are they unable to reach out and extend an offer until that candidate's team is eliminated?

I believe that's correct. Agents can discuss what a contract should look like and agree to terms but nothing can be signed or formally announced until that team's season is officially over.

And, the NFL frowns on teams making news that takes the spotlight away from playoff games. But if anything does happen, it always unofficially gets to the internet.

I wouldn't mind Patricia at all...

over all others, even if he's no longer on the Giants beat.

still has good connections to the organization. He was the best beat writer we've had here.

If only I could divulge, but yes he still has very strong ties here and with several organizations because of those ties.

he is a local guy, Raised by Belichick.
He just seems like a good fit.
