He sucked. But I’d be happy if I was him. Because it’s got people thinking maybe he didn’t suck which will land him a new job. For some poor bastard of a team.
But it doesn't mean he doesn't know his football. He thought Eli was done. Check. he thought Solder wasn't a very good player.Check. He said Flowers could bend his knees on the left side and why would anyone think he could do that on the right side. Check. He's far fro an idiot. Gettleman? I have my doubts that he isn't an idiot.
The problem is that I am not sure what the difference between McAdoo and Shurmur is. McAdoo couldn’t handle the adversity. Let’s see what Shurmur does with it. It’s here now.
But I can’t get past how Mara “handled” the mcadoo/Eli benching.
Seriously, try and examine that whole thing and what actually went down and tell me Mara isn’t the biggest fucking idiot in this whole deal.
Mara fucked that thing up so bad it’s beyond words. Don’t tell me he didn’t.
Mcadoo says we’re benching the qb for Geno. Fans go nuts. Giants lose the game that Geno starts, no shock there. Mara FIRES Mcadoo a few days later then basically goes out of his way to immediately orchestrate the Eli restoration project. Whether he demanded DG and shurmur build around Eli is unknown and irrelevant. We know he fired the coach who benched him.
He and Reese left a complete suckfest of a roster when they got canned (I blame Reese more than McAdoo). This new FO and Staff have had 5 games to clean up that mess after a complete overhaul of the roster, if you thought it was going to happen overnight I don't know what to say.
They agreed Eli would start the game, and IF the game got out of hand they would insert Geno at that time. McAdoo told Eli he was getting the first half, and Geno the 2nd half. Eli balked at that. Geno started the game.
Mara fires McAdoo for not doing what they agreed to do.
Now, everything from that point forward is where I have concerns. What did Gettlemen see that told him Eli would be able to succeed this season? He had to know that this is a 2 season Oline rebuild, and Eli is so immobile that he can't play behind this weak line.

seem to have improved over time. I guess some don't want to remember what an undisciplined mess this team was when he was let go?
Does anyone else remember him standing on the sidelines silently watching OBJ melt down in the Carolina game? Does anyone remember the repeated clock mismanagement?
Coughlin was a great coach for the Giants for many years, but letting him go was not a mistake.
Just smiling
yea come on this isnt even close.
he blew in every way. shurmur just has a bad team
And judging by this season, it doesn't matter who coaches the team.
But your post is hilarious.
And it kills me to defend the guy.
Shurmur looks no different...if not worse. And least he has more players who are upright and healthy...

So much is wrong here.

I agree he does not have the personality to be a HC. He is more an OC.
But it appears, he was right about Eli
Browns reject pile was asking for trouble.
Somewhere red face Tom coughlin is actually smiling

What’s coughlin smiling about? They sucked 3 years in a row with him in charge and he had his hands all,over those awful drafts to
