Perry Fewell took on playcalling this week after Ron Rivera was relieved of duty. Most Giants fans knew how that would go. Jackson didn’t stick up for or mention Ron in the interview but he did single out the play calling specifically. When asked if they had something to prove for Ron’s absence he replied that he plays for his teammates.
What this tells me is that RR at the very least would be much better than Bettcher and clearly better than Fewell in terms of play calling.
And how about Donte Jackson? Future trade target?

Being a professional is also about being candid. This is a performance based business, when people make mistakes people lose their jobs.
Not all mistakes need to be made public but when your past HC is blamed for the teams shortcomings and they lose a game they probably would’ve won.. it’s clearly trying to send a message to ownership.
I would really doubt he’d go after someone who is outspoken. It’s 100% against his form.
He's probably a lot like Bettcher - an average coordinator who can be better or worse depending on the personnel.

I haven't seen any evidence Bettcher is even average.

they can Rivera and make Fewell the interim HC what, 5 days after they lose to the Redskins? And this guy is trying to pin this loss entirely on Fewell.

His defense in Arizona was average to above average. He had some players to work with there though.
