Specifically referencing ownership and management. For all his flaws, at least Shurmur has faced the music every week and kept his head held high. I’m ready for the front office to answer the tough questions and address the shitshow that is the 2019 Giants.
At this point you shouldn't listen to him.. the only thing that you should listen to, is his record and we are worse than the dolphins in that regards..
DG thinks it’s a chance to be cute with media
Can’t escape now
Defense is embarrassing and oline still blows
I’m not a fan of PS but you’re wrong. He does the Coach’s Corner with Papa every week too. Point is, I want to hear the higher ups answer for this disaster.

"at least Shurmur has faced the music every week and kept his head held high". Has he really? The pussy bailed on all public interview that are not mandated by the NFL after week 3 when he got questioned on why should fans buy in that he is the coach who could lead the Giants out of this long losing era. He is only fulfilling his NFL obligation to take the mic after every game; other than that he is just as big of a pussy as all the rest of them.

I think Steve's referring to Shurmur ducking WFAN, which I can see - but using Papa's interview as an example is too funny. That's advertising, not some sort of meaningful interview.

Coach's Corner is a New York Giants produced show which he is contractually obligated to do; so remind me again when he's done an interview he's not contractually obligated to do.

Shurmur hasn’t done enough “extra”’ or voluntary interviews to suit you, aside from coaching the team? Hate that for you, bud. Back to my original point- I want to hear from the front office and see them squirm.
His customers are pissed. The results have been god awful since the 2012 season (with one $200MM FA year, '16, as the only exception). People are paying big money for these tickets, parking, PSLs, AND spending their time on this product. He has to send the message that he feels their anger/pain and will make changes.
Failure to speak to his customer base could potentially erode that fan base now, and down the road.
We heard it before and it is meaningless at this point.

He needs to let them know he understands how unacceptable these results are and that he will make necessary changes at the end of the season.

Well, then what's the alternative? Give up your tix? Stop being a fan? Both of these are bad business for the Mara's/Tisch's.
