If Shurmer were let go, who would you bring in?

Has Giants connections (sort of)

Beloved by the fans and media

A young, non-retread offensive guy like Kevin Stefanski.

We've rarely had success with "Offensive Gurus".

Tom Coughlin was an offensive assistant. So was Paul Brown, Tom Landry, Bill Walsh, Joe Gibbs, Mike Shanahan....

The candidates I find most intriguing
Eric Bieniemy OC Chiefs
Matt Rhule Baylor
Dan Campbell Saints

Sorry had to do it 😂🤣

Sexy Rexy!

Dan Campbell

Matt Rhule
Lincoln Riley
Josh McDaniels
Jim Schwartz
Greg Roman
Don Martindale

But more critical than the hire is that the front office/coaching staff relationship needs to be reconsidered. The Giants are trapped in the past with the way they operate.

.

Is it just because he was a Coughlin assistant? The guy is 38-40 as a head coach.

I'm always wary of college coaches, but I would be OK with rolling the dice on Lincoln Riley.

I would think about Matt Eberflus, Kris Richard, and Eric Bienemeny. For college guys, I would want to talk to Shaw and Riley. And I would have to talk to McDaniels. He is a lunatic, but he could certainly design an offense for DJ.

Or Tomlin or someone with a similar name so BBI can spell the coach's name.

Mike Groh
Lincoln Riley
Gregg Roman
Matt Eberflus

It's a little unfair to use record when he has coached in places like Temple. He actually built a program there that went from punchline to Bowl.

hmmm

I wonder how much he knew about Andrew Luck not being long for the game.

are either Shaw or Jim Harbaugh.

Would be my pick. Appears to be a solid guy and good leader.

He was such a disaster as his father's OC at UVA 15 years ago. Totally in over his head. Have to give him a ton of credit for having the humility to go from an OC to a graduate assistant in order to have the opportunity to learn from the dark master, Nick Saban.

at the top. Many good coaches will not come here based on the incompetence of the almost decade of poor football decisions and play. Why move to NY for 2 years and have to leave?

Can’t get it wrong. I’m intrigued by McDaniels & I wonder if Patricia was the first choice after 2017.

I like this too.

But Al Golden did a pretty solid job at Temple, too, before falling flat on his face in Miami. Personally, I'd like to see a little more from a guy before giving him the big job.

"It's now or never, dude."

And bring him into the facility to tell him that in person, while he's standing there all glassy-eyed, awash in memories and nostalgia.

I'm not down-voting Rhule, but that criteria needs to be eliminated.

There is a problem with the manner in which the major decisions in this franchise have been made. Clear as day.

I had the name "Joe Girardi" all queued up but that was for another team I root for.


..I watched the latest "Do your job" video on YouTube about the Pats and have warmed up to him. I soured on him after the Colts thing. He;s likely Bill B's successor though.

Eric Bieniemy is another name I like

No, it would wind up being Smyth or Tomlen.....

He's my choice.

Almost certainly wouldn't work, but no reason not to try

I just threw up in my mouth.

Well, they say that Belichick is driven by challenges more than any other coach is. Is there a bigger challenge than turning this franchise that he still loves around?

(That needs to be a part of the pitch, too.)

With a young QB, I'd think they'd want to go with an offensive-minded guy, and Riley is one college guy I would take a shot at.

Money is as good or better in college now, frankly it’s a better job than most NFL jobs, maybe than all NFL jobs. Once you have the recruit pipeline rolling it’s not going to stop. A lot different than having to deal with the draft and free agents and the salary cap.

He can keep that job for 20 years if he wants.

DJ is tailor-made for the Patriots offense.

Is that the same Dan Campbell as our former tight end?

early to consider that. It's important for PS to see what DJ does well and change his scheme to match that (if necessary).

yes

As already mentioned, do everything to entice him back here. He is motivated by challenges and turning this franchise around with a promising QB and an incredible RB specifically should be challenging enough. He doesn't seem to be wanting to retire anytime soon so give him a 3-5 year contract and give him control. That means firing both Pat Schurmur and Dave Gettleman and giving all the authority they had to Bill. It's still unlikely to happen at this point but there is still a chance for sure.

We all know it.

I would trade our entire roster for Belichick. If Mara hasn't offered him $50M+ to come coach the Giants then he's done a poor job.

Forget it, not because it's a bad idea, but BB would want total control and no one is getting that without wrestling out of Jawn's cold, dead hand.

Tome Landry was a defensive coach

Yes, he was an interim HC for 3 games with Miami. He has been a hot name for the last few years. I like him a lot actually.
