Is Shurmur still the Giants head coach

Les in TO : 11/10/2019 7:41 pm
at this time tomorrow?

I’m going with No. losing consecutive weeks to the cowboys and jets, based on Schwartz’s article and Mara storming past the media leads me to think he’s a goner.
Yes.  
Matt M. : 11/10/2019 7:42 pm : link
But, he won't be (or definitely should NOT be) within 72 hours of the end of the season.
Yes He Is  
Trainmaster : 11/10/2019 7:42 pm : link
25% chance Bettcher is fired.
Tomorrow, yes  
jcn56 : 11/10/2019 7:43 pm : link
End of the year? Anyone's guess.
How can you keep him?  
Jim in Forest Hills : 11/10/2019 7:43 pm : link
I mean look at the product.
Yeh they'll keep these guys around until the can reasonably start  
Zeke's Alibi : 11/10/2019 7:43 pm : link
a coaching search.
Yes  
ron mexico : 11/10/2019 7:45 pm : link
In season firing are stupid and it’s not like there are any promising coaches on the staff to take over.
He will be for the rest of the season  
Jay on the Island : 11/10/2019 7:45 pm : link
Hopefully that will be the end of his time here.
You're only giving yourself something else to be mad about.  
81_Great_Dane : 11/10/2019 7:46 pm : link
That's not how the Giants do business. Maybe they should fire him, maybe not, but they won't.
He’ll be the coach week 1 next September  
The_Boss : 11/10/2019 7:46 pm : link
Because, well, it’s the Giants Way.

Fuck us.
Will be  
micky : 11/10/2019 7:48 pm : link
And probably get an extension by mara
2020.....  
thrunthrublue : 11/10/2019 7:50 pm : link
At least please get cheerleaders........call them the “SCORES” girls.
These last 3 years  
GiantsRage2007 : 11/10/2019 7:51 pm : link
Make the final 2 years by Coughlin at 6-10 look successful

Holy hell what a shit show

To think... 6 wins would feel like a huge improvement for this team.

Not even you can say that. No shot that happens.
I know its sunday evening and the pain still hurts but

Shurmur has to lose his job...
This team  
dlauster : 11/10/2019 8:02 pm : link
Sucks!

The coaches suck!
The GM sucks!
The franchise sucks!
The owners suck!
The stadium sucks!
The uniforms suck!

My liver hurts too!
honestly  
NorthCountryGiantsFan : 11/10/2019 8:09 pm : link
I'd fire Shurmur and promote McGaughey to Interim. Let Shula take over the O, let Bettcher continue to torch the D and ride out the rest of the season in misery.
Eli Apple had more 'PRESENCE' on.....  
MOOPS : 11/10/2019 8:13 pm : link
the Giants sidelines in 2017.....



than Shurmur has now.



They won’t fire him in season  
Dave on the UWS : 11/10/2019 8:17 pm : link
Three optics are bad. But I can’t believe they won’t can him the day after the season ends.

I doubt it. I think he’d have to win the last 5 or 6 to save his job and that’s not happening.
They have to keep him until the end of the year  
Mike from Ohio : 11/10/2019 8:21 pm : link
So Mara can storm into his end of year press conference and talk about accountability and not accepting losing and point to firing him a day before as evidence of his take-no-prisoners way of running the team.
I think we have a new D coordinator very very soon  
greek13 : 11/10/2019 8:26 pm : link
I predict PS gets another year - but must give up play calling to stay -
17-42  
nygnyy274 : 11/10/2019 8:33 pm : link
Record as head coach. 7-19 as giants head coach why does he get another year..
Screw Mara  
djstat : 11/10/2019 8:37 pm : link
Have some balls and talk to your fans (which is done through the press). Your team has been a joke since the first term of the Obama Administration. Tired of hearing the bs from Mara about how the fans are not more upset then he is, or Golden PED Tate saying have patience and trust the process. Mara has $500 million in the bank. Tate has a $37 million contract. Don’t tell us to be patient.

John and Chris Mara are not football people. They are pathetic trust fund babies who would never have sniffed a football field if not born into wealth. Tisch is too busy being in Hollywood to have an impact.

Here’s hoping Mara and Tisch sell the team.
I don’t want him to  
greek13 : 11/10/2019 8:37 pm : link
Just predicting
The crowd at the games should get loud .....  
Fishmanjim57 : 11/10/2019 8:44 pm : link
in support of firing Shurmur!
As a head coach he is an absolute failure.
Dave Gettleman should also have his head on the chopping block.
Those two bums have created a brutal team for us to suffer watching and supporting.
Mara should stop getting involved with the decision making concerning this team. He should simply sign checks and keep his opinions to himself.
This team is a disaster!
Heads should roll!
Why do they have to keep him  
ryanmkeane : 11/10/2019 9:01 pm : link
until the end of the year? Seriously why? It can't get any worse. Why would we care about having this guy as our coach until the end of the season vs someone else?

Why risk winning games vs Miami or Washington? With this dumbass on the sideline, we are guaranteed to lose to at least one of them. Those games are enormous. We can’t risk them with an interim coach who has a clue.

Well generally you would make one of your coordinator the interim coach. Shurmur, being no dummy, hired Shula and Bettcher knowing you could not possibly let one of them takeover.
Yes  
5BowlsSoon : 11/10/2019 9:15 pm : link
In fact all next year too. You don’t cut a coach who is starting 10 rookies....
Not Just 10 Rookies  
Samiam : 11/10/2019 10:07 pm : link
The Giants starting OL is bad so take out starters then a 3rd starter. Take out Shepard and Engram plus a rookie QB against a Gregg Williams blitzing defense. And, don’t get me started with a defense with a weak pass rush and a secondary that can’t cover. Why is anyone surprised they lost?
remember early in the game  
japanhead : 11/10/2019 10:10 pm : link
when the jets were in 3rd and 11 and bettcher had one down lineman rushing? darnold converted easily. good times. bettcher is just as big a problem as shurmur.

Sounds like a typical John Mara move to delay the inevitable. You’re probably right.

As much as I want PS gone, I agree that they can't risk Dead Cat Bounce and maybe win with an IHC
