Not the Giants...but the HC. Shurmur is 17-38 for a reason.
These last 2 weeks should have been a 3 point games...Yes even with the injures, they should have lost, but no imagination on offense...can't see him even getting to be a .500 coach...
with a washed up QB. They won 5 games last year. They have $60M+ in dead cap room this year and have just gone though a hard part of their schedule.
I think they can improve on their win total from last year which earns him a year 3. Teams that switch coaches every year or two aren't franchises we want to emulate.
and he has not had success. Last nights game is not one I have issues with PS for. He had the team prepared and seemingly pumped to face the Patriots. My question in relation to last night is why did we seem so flat against the Cowboys? Where was this attacking defense the rest of the season? Why have we not seen this type of performance against any of our division rivals? Maybe its me, but I feel like if they had been this focused against Dallas, we walk out of there with a victory.
but he's coached two teams with very limited talent. even belichick had a losing record with the browns.
he made two baffling decisions last night (TO, punt), but his players played very hard for him.
maybe he's neither the worst nor the best. why do people feel the need to live in the superlative?
What TO did he use incorrectly?
He's actually been calling is TOs correctly in recent games, IMO.
The punt was bad.
The timeout before the half. It was going to be 3rd and 9 and Brady killed over 1 minute with simple hand offs. The Pats looked ready to concede the half at 14-14. He called timeout. Brady then shredded us for 6 on I believe 5 passes in a row to get to the 2.

A washed up qb. please. When he loses again it'll be a rookie qb. This guy is a loser just from his personality alone. the fact that he's like .333 winning pct or whatever and the fact he looks out coached in EVERY game except the lowly redskins is all I need.

But, your very post backs up the point ofvwhy he sgouldn't be the coach. Talent will mot change his coaching style or decision making. He made huge mistakes and decisions based on emotion that worked against his already ovet matched squad. In a closer game those decisions woild he game killers. Improved talent doesn't change shitty coaching..
already. Her was 9-24 there. What was the organization record before AND after he was there?
I’m more concerned with his performance here. He can get this team to the competitive level. I have doubts about him beyond that point.

Maybe because:
1.) Away game in Dallas
2.) Many rookies in 1st game
3.) Eli
4.) Dallas superior talent
Why not earlier - see #2 and Golden coming on, Lawrence coming on, Baker coming...
Didn't they beat up on Washington a division rival?
.450 win percentage, considerably higher than Shurmur's. And that's a team that in his final year went 5-11 after collapsing under the news that the franchise was moving to Baltimore and the subsequent media circus that followed. 5-11 is Shurmur's high water mark.

So BB couldn't get the team playing well through adversity? Terrible coach, no wonder he was fired.
Belichick had the Browns at 11-5 and in the playoffs by the 4th season Â
1.25 years into a complete rebuild after taking over a 3-13 team. C'mon, what did you expect? Things do reverse over night.
Totally agree. I never really liked the hire - because I believe the problems with this team run much deeper with management, and still do - but Shurmur is being made a scapegoat. He’s the easy target. Just like McAdoo was the easy target.
I wholeheartedly subscribe to the notion that the majority of NFL games are won before they are played. And right now we just don’t have the health and talent to put ourselves in a position to win these games before they are played...
I felt this was a 3 year rebuild culminating in a 2020 playoff berth Â
After last seasons second half progress I was in favor of being patient with Shurmur and letting things play out over that time frame.
That is changing. Each week my trust erodes. Gameplan, playcalling, personnel decisions, time management, situational strategies, his use of challenges...he's failed in every area.
It is just a matter of time before this will be a major topic with the media.
He definitely has thick skin so he can handle it!

I hated the call for the punt on 4th Down too. But, we need to give him a chance.
The jury is out until the end the 2020 season.
