This game is on Pat Shumur

BeckShepEli : 10/10/2019 10:56 pm
I don’t want to hear the injuries excuse. You play to win the game. This guy is absolutely terrible. His play calling is mind boggling. The fact that some of you people believe he’s the best person for team is scary.
Dude.

I agree the game is on Pat Shurmur  
BlackLight : 10/10/2019 10:59 pm : link
I also think he's done a hell of a job getting the team up to play. We could've gotten embarrassed tonight and didn't.

Seriously. This team is completely outclassed personnel-wise tonight and played the unbeaten, defending Super Bowl champs to a stale-mate for 3 quarters. The mistakes that have cost them were all on the players...fumbles, not finishing routes, bad decision with the football, horrible penalties (Janoris Jenkins with the hold on 4th and 7 was atrocious).

I respect your opinion but I disagree 2 weeks ago everyone way saying DJ is the future now and ready to win games now. I get it he’s going to be a rookie and throw picks and made mistake but you can’t convince me Shurmur is the right coach for him.

Barkley went down 3 weeks ago. You have veteran FAs available they decided to keep Tanney on the roster.
It's not on Shurmur

This team has 5 TOs and was in good positions sans that last drive. They came to play very shorthanded and made it a game.

How about going for it on fourth down? How about not putting Rhett fucking Ellison on an island? How about throwing more shots at Slayton downfield? How about getting away from the screen passes to a completely useless RB?

Our only playmaker right now on offense with a Rookie QB.

Pat Shurmur coaches a stalemate until the 4tjh quarter and I’ve didn’t coach his players up for a game we all thought was going to be blood bath from the first snap.

This is not a Pat Shurmur problem.
There,,,  
FatMan in Charlotte : 10/10/2019 11:11 pm : link
were probably 5-6 plays called for downfield passes (likely to Slayton) that Jones couldn't throw because of the coverage and the pass rush.

The fact that you ignore the reality of where this team is at tonight is mind boggling. Looking at this game and saying Shurm isn’t the game is a stretch at best. This team had NO offensive weapons and were fortunate to be in the game at all. Injuries are a fact of the game but missing the #1 & 2 RB, #1 TE who’s the best receiving threat, and best WR are challenges nobody is overcoming against the best team in the league in their house.

Punting on 4th and 2 is a fireable offense  
bhill410 : 10/10/2019 11:12 pm : link
The defense played much much better but how much impact does Schumer even have there? The offense (short handed) and special teams gave this game to pats and Schumer sealed it with curious decisions in second half.

Bullshit it was 14-14 with 3 mins left in the 2nd quarter. This wasn’t a bloodbath. It turned into a massacre once Shurmur realized we were playing a football game. But I look forward to his post game of him saying we played a great game

with bubble wrap on Jones. Why not have the kid take off once or twice on the RPO? Let him loose.

Not going for it on 4 and 2 was so stupid. Defense was on the field for 40 min and was starting to bend hard.

I do like how the team plays hard for him though.

To rebuild and oh btw were missing Barkley, Gallman, Engram and Shep. You knuckleheads really expect them to sign a RB Monday who could have helped? This team played hard and stayed competitive. Jones is ready to win some games. Had an off night in tough winds but kept the team in it. Defense made some plays but ran out of gas.

This franchise is on the right track. Some of you have no patience and no clue
Lost this game due to innumerable reasons, but

That’s correct Dane thanks for agreeing. But seriously 21-14 at halftime and this team came out flat in the 2nd half. Offensive plays have been extremely plain and cautious with DJ. Eli did more bootlegs in 2 games than DJ has done in 3 games. Let the kid do what he does best. Take the training wheels off

After he gets canned by the Giants, he will likely go back to be an OC and have some good years.

Giants were not winning this game regardless tonight. But Shurmur's use of timeouts just showed he can't think quickly on his feet.

How about going for it on fourth down? How about not putting Rhett fucking Ellison on an island? How about throwing more shots at Slayton downfield? How about getting away from the screen passes to a completely useless RB?



you realize they are playing in 25 mph winds and against the best secondary in the nfl? kind of hard to throw downfield



You realize that the wind was behind their back for two quarters, right?

That will still effect throws Ank

I tend to agree but I don’t think he’s that bad. Definitely below average.

Too many head scratching calls offensively. I don’t think they ever tried to attack the middle of the field.

Didn’t like a bunch of in game decisions. Defense wasn’t perfect but showed up.

Blocked punt, Hilliman's fumble, Jenkins falling alseep on the last long pass to Edelman.

No Barkley, Shepard, or Engram and they were in the hgame until the 4th quarter.
Shrumur isn't the answer.  
St. Jimmy : 10/10/2019 11:38 pm : link
He is an offensive coordinator who is head coach. He is always attempting to react to the game. He is never ahead of the game. Another John Mara dud of a head coach.

I think the team has to show progress for him to stay.

He might have to win 7 games to stay. Maybe 6 if the team is competitive in the losses. Anything less than that and he is very likely gone.

Actually, the Patriots haven't really played great offense all year. They have been decimated by key OL injuries from the start of the year. But that would presume you watch games, follow the rest of the league, and, more importantly, understand the game.

And a lot of teams have chances to beat the Patriots. But they don't either. And a lot of those teams are healthier than us and have better coaching.

So tell me. Do you believe in Santa Claus, too?

cosmicj : 10/10/2019 11:52 pm : link
We have enough data to know what he is.

The decision to retain him in 2020 should have absolutely nothing to do with him and his record. It should depend on whether there is an alternative outside the organization that could be a leading NFL coach.

I know Mara won’t look at it that way. But he should.

McVay could beat the Pats what - just last season, right?

And Payton? Please.

Were those coaches going to somehow will WR's to get separation and squeeze the very best out of Hilliman?

This game wasn't lost by coaching. We had a punt blocked for a TD, 3 INT's and a fumble returned for a TD. That's on Shurmur?

Going for it on 4th down there, with our offense as constituted, is something a moron would do.

So, less screen passes to useless RB and more of them to covered and mostly useless WRs. Got it. You have a boner for Slayton but the reality is he's a GOOD 4th WR. That's all. Kid has talent and has a lot to learn.

BW let me throw it back to you. Nothing to do with this thread. Did you think we were going to beat the patriots in super bowl 42? The reason why I ask and this thread has nothing to do with it but we play 1 game to win and if things fall the right way you could win the game and tonight we missed on a few of those key moments.
What about Hilliman,  
adamg : 10/11/2019 12:22 am : link
Bethea, and Peppers missing open field tackles?

Or the fact that our three best playmakers were out?

I have to say Haley looked good wraping guys up. And Zo looked good. This game gave me hope that a core may be there.

We still suck tho. And while Pat may not be a savior or even a fixture, this loss was beyond his paygrade.

And you claim Shurmur is a bad coach since he lost this game then the other 3 coachs that could lost are bad coachs also. This was a very tough game for the GMEN to win with all the injuries and even without the injuries it would have been tough. You even was surprised that the GMEN was still in it till the mid 4Q. Who was coaching the GMEN at that time? Shurmur did a hell of a lot with what he had tonight. Sure he has a lot to go but as long as we see improvement thats all we want for now.

Oh please don’t give credit to our head coach because the patriots made mistakes. We hired Pat Shurmur to fix this offense. He has not done that. I get it we have a rookie QB and before that it was Eli’s fault. In the last 3 games we have 0 offensive points in the 2nd half. You can’t win football games with those stats.
I by no means would argue

The first season with Shurmur the Giants scored more than 30 points 4 times with Eli Manning at QB. Zero times in three seasons prior, he comes in with a new offense and does it 4 times. And one time this year in his rookie QB's first game.

Pat Shurmur runs a GREAT offense. You still need good players to execute any offense. The Giants are not going to execute at a high level against excellent competition when the most recognizable talent on offense is a 31 year old Golden Tate and a rookie QB who is still learning.

For you to pass judgement 3 games into a rookie QB's season is so fucking arrogant it's just absurd. Don't be such a fucking dumbfuck and exercise some amount of patience, and have a couple of neurons fire giving you the consciousness that, hey, it might take a half a season or maybe even an entire season before a rookie QB can begin to run an offense at a high level, FFS. Fucking clown show in here right now.

Why is everyone giving Shurmur credit  
Leg of Theismann : 10/11/2019 3:02 am : link
for the Giants "staying in the game" until late? James fucking Bettcher is the defensive coordinator. Do you realize that up until late in the 2nd quarter, the defense had held the Tom Brady Patriot offense to ONE touchdown, AND had scored a TD itself essentially erasing that one TD it had allowed. Sure the offense didn't have any weapons to work with but people are acting as though Shurmur did anything good whatsoever. He didn't. The offense was awful. The offense made one nice play all night (the long TD to Tate) and just because of that everyone wants to blow Shurmur and talk about "oh wow just amazing that the offense actually had a good play against the legendary Bill Belichick defense, so impressive."

Don't get me wrong I'm very proud of this team for coming into this essentially unwinnable game and fighting to stay in it right up until the very end. But give that credit to the players who understandably came into this game treating it like it was their personal 2019 super bowl. What player with any sort of competitive bone in his body wouldn't have treated it that way?

I didn't expect them to come away with a win. But to talk about Pat Shurmur as though he did anything good tonight whatsoever beyond just be the bare minimum of an NFL coach is insane. He had nothing to work with on offense, and he did nothing with it. He delivered the expected status quo in that regard. BUT-- then he also made a lot of questionable and flat out bad calls that anyone with any sort of understanding of football knows were bad calls.

Seriously, how do you not go for it on that 4th and 2? I know we're beating a dead horse, but that horse has to be beaten until it dies about 25 more times. What the hell was he thinking? 4th and 2, down 2 TDs, 7:30 left in the game. There was still a sliver of hope they could have come back but instead he just punted it away as if he was making sure to give Brady plenty of time to drive down the field and cover the spread.
Name 1 player on giants offense tonight that NE was scared of ?

It is possible to not pin the loss on Shurmur  
mattnyg05 : 10/11/2019 6:00 am : link
And still not be satisfied with how he does things. I thought a subtle thing was taking the timeout with 2:40 left in the first half... yes, you want to try to get the ball back, but you’re playing the patriots. They were kind of running the ball ad bleeding the clock a little bit and as soon as we called timeout it was “oh you’re calling timeout? Fuck you were going to score a td now” and that’s exactly what happened.

I think I would have let things flow a little bit there-maybe they were content to just run it and settle for a field goal until we stopped the clock. I also didn’t like the quick snaps against a HOF coach with arguably his best defense ever so far. That, rushing the plays before the end of the third to keep the wind... I don’t think any coach would have stood much of a chance tonight, but I don’t think Shurmur has shown that he’s your answer. And I was a huge Shurmur defender up until the Eagle loss last year where he refused to give the ball to Barkley.

I agree that he never seems ahead of the game he’s completely by the book. I can’t explain it but he has no feel. At least that’s what it seems like. I know we weren’t moving the ball tonight, our offense was basically shut down, but taking a little more time to run plays might have given us a better shot and kept our d off the field for a few more minutes instead of quick snapping so we could punt right away. It was head scratching all night there. I don’t think it was Shurmurs fault but you might have had a better chance with a better coach.

Dave on the UWS : 10/11/2019 6:59 am : link
one of these posts is “terrible play caller” guy is an OC not a head coach. Well part of what an OC does (usually) is call plays. So what your saying then is he’s a really bad coach win shouldn’t be employed at all.
I think he’s a better HC then OC - and that’s the problem here. He’s trying to do both jobs and it’s not working. He needs to turn everything over to Shula and run the whole team. It can work with a more seasoned team, but not here.
I thought until 8 minutes to go  
dpinzow : 10/11/2019 7:11 am : link
Shurmur and the team did well. But that punt decision on 4th and 2 with 8 minutes left makes me fear for his job. The players gave it everything they had to that point against the best team in football and he waves the white flag when it’s still 28-14. I wonder if some of the players are thinking that coach doesn’t give them 100% opportunity to win games
Don't blame Shurmur for the loss...  
SFGFNCGiantsFan : 10/11/2019 7:14 am : link
I thought his decision to punt on 4th & 2 with 8 & change left was pretty weak though.

But I don't think he's a good coach at all.
Not many coaches win that game.

+1 Hated that TO, they were still in it at that point but they poked the bear and paid for it. I don't like PS as a HC but to blame him for that loss is beyond stupid, there was NFW they were winning that game, Little Bill doesn't lose to rookie QBs at home!

You try coaching for the Browns and Giants.

Shurmur's biggest flaw as a head coach is being willing to get hired by shitty franchises.

Rudy5757 : 10/11/2019 8:57 am : link
The punt on 4th and 2 was a bad call but this team played hard. We had nothing on O all game. WRs were not open, everything was contested and DJ had some great throws and some not so great throws. The players made some boneheaded plays too though and that is what cost us the game.

Stupar couldnt block on the punt. He now sucks at everything.

Peppers missed on a critical tackle on 3rd down. In games like this those little things matter and your top players have to step up.

Jenkins with the Hold for no reason.

Golden with the personal Foul, yes it should have been both ways but the last guy usually gets called.

Slayton didn't go to get the ball on the long pass, he waited for the ball to come to him and was looking for a flag. A little effort gets him a catch or a penalty. This is a good learning point for him to see on tape, you need to go after it. He is going to be a good one if he can learn to attack the ball and had a pretty good game overall.
The Giants are probably going to win 4-6 games this year  
arniefez : 10/11/2019 9:19 am : link
How do you justify having an NFL HC that wins 33% of the time going forward. The Giants need to find a good coach like the Colts, Rams, Bears & 49ers have. It's not easy. Very few people are good at this job.

This franchise is on the right track. Some of you have no patience and no clue


These BS excuses. I remember the Giant's in '07 winning a SB without a Tiki Barber playing in his prime; with back-up TE when Shockey broke his leg. 2 pro bowlers. And yea who's fault is it that Perkins; a one time starter got cut and you didn't have a 3rd string back?

PEEJ : 10/11/2019 2:13 pm : link
When behind coaches try to extend the game as long as possible. With 8 minutes left a lot can happen (though some may be wishful thinking). Turnovers, muffed punts, etal.

If the Giants fail to get the first down and turn over the ball in their own territory, the game is essentially over.

You may not agree with the decision, but there is some logic behind it. As fans we always want to go for the TD on 4th and goal from the 2 yd line. Sometimes taking the 3 points is the right play.

A decision can be right even if the result is bad

No just saying the giants won a superbowl with back-up TEs and a RB previously held by 2 pro bowlers. So were the giants no longer a super bowl team because they were missing those guys. Heck they played better without either one of those guys.
