Glazer: Shurmur is out, DG job saved

Ben in Tampa : 12/29/2019 12:22 pm
Just now on FOX, although he prefaced that it his opinion on Gettleman
Well, they got half of it right  
Saos1n : 12/29/2019 12:23 pm : link
Better than nothing, I suppose.

Wonder if DG will answer the phone on draft day.
He thinks the following teams will have open HC spots:  
Anakim : 12/29/2019 12:24 pm : link
Giants
Washington
Panthers
Cowboys


And maybe the Browns and the Jaguars
He did say that he initially thought Gettleman  
RDJR : 12/29/2019 12:24 pm : link
was gone, but now believes he's safe.
He also said  
bluesince56 : 12/29/2019 12:25 pm : link
Rivera might sign with Redskins as early as tonight
Also says Rhule is the hot candidate on everyones list  
Ben in Tampa : 12/29/2019 12:25 pm : link
And Rivera could be the Redskins coach by tonight
He said he "thinks" on both...

Shurmur and Gettleman. Didn't necessarily report either was staying or going.

BFD...I like Rivera, but not that much.

outeiroj : 12/29/2019 12:26 pm : link
...he said he thinks he's going to be out... I don't disagree it's a likely hood its going to happen. But the last few years he appeared to have much more conviction and it almost sounds like he doesn't have quite the info he wishes he had and doesn't want to risk being wrong
Just as I expected  
DonnieD89 : 12/29/2019 12:27 pm : link
I really believe this is the right move. Lets see what they do with the coaching staff now. Dave Gettleman did his job these past few years and he does not deserve to be fired. He did his job to bring talent on the team and clear cap space. Thats what he is supposed to do. Its not his fault that he has a lousy coach that cannot utilize Saquon Barkley appropriately or make good play calling to get the team in a better position to win.

If Jones work out over the long run, I have no problem giving Gettleman credit for the pick. Time will tell there.

For now, Shurmur gets the credit for the Jones hitting the ground running and his output.

But back to Glazer's quote, what has Gettleman done to save his job? I found that very curious. Maybe it was a poor choice of words, but what do you think?

Glazer always says he does not give his opinion until he has concrete info, same with the Beckham trade last year. He would not be saying this without solid info.

If Gettleman stays, ownership either needs to commit to him for at least two-three years, or there has to be a post-Gettleman plan, whether its Abrams, Rhule expanding his role after establishing himself, or whatever.

Pretty conflicted on this. Totally unproven. Smallish program. This seems to be a home run or total strikeout move.

Would be a lot more comfortable if he agreed to established coordinators on his staff like Kubiak and Wade Phillips.

If you put quotation marks in the subject line, the quoted words will disappear.

Although this glitch can evidently be corrected when it comes to the attention of an administrator.
I don't love Gettleman, but I'm certainly not anti-DG.  
shockeyisthebest8056 : 12/29/2019 12:50 pm : link
My issue is that it would be moronic for the Giants to restrict their coaching prospects because they're married to the idea of keeping Gettleman. If they don't allow themselves to look at a wide-open, unfettered list of HC candidates, then what's the purpose of firing Shurmur?

Why? Clearly not the only choice. Shurmur needs to go. Just too many bad in game decisions. The players like playing for him, but there just doesn't seem to be improvement in the players or his decisions.

Gettleman - yeah some truly bad FA choices and head scratchers. And then he has some good ones. His draft picks are better than pretty good IMV. I like that he cuts bait quickly. I like that he recognizes that the way to win is through the big guys up front and he has tried to get better. I think he'll continue to improve there.

I can go either way with him.

Fire both or go all in for 1 more season. Hate this decision.


Most teams take these same half measures. Sometimes they work sometimes not. Sometimes nuking the entire thing works and sometimes not. This very franchise has benefited from these so called half measures. I know its hard to exhibit any optimism especially based on the last 7-8 years but some of you seem hellbent on things being glass half empty. Whatever works...

Rhule: Thanks John, it's always been my dream to coach the New York Football Giants. I have some demands, I'd like to pick my own staff.

Mara: Sure, anything else?

Rhule: I will not work with Gettleman.

Mara: Get out!!!!!

Rhule: Excuse me?

Mara: Now!!!!!

Rhule Leaves

Mara: Get Garrett on line 1!!!


Alternate conversation

Mara: what if we guarantee that Gettlemen retires in one year. You can pick your GM you want to work with

Honestly this would be the preferred route. Rhule hasn't done anything to ask for total control, but demand seems high for him and might be the only way to get him.

It seems more of his issue was control over coaching staff. He has ties to Coughlin, Bicknell and Gettlemans last year here before going to Carolina was Matt Rhules year here. Wouldnt be surprised if he was fine with Gettleman.

The claims that Rhule wants personnel control is nothing but speculation. Here is what is known:

- Rhule interviewed with the Jets last year.
- The Jets were down to Rhule, McCarthy, and Gase
- The Jets also wanted Williams to be DC and there is ample evidence to suggest a framework of a deal was already in place.
- Jets offered Rhule the job on the condition that he not have full control over selection of his assistant coaches (this has been documented in several reports since last Jan)
- Rhule turned down the Jets conditional offer (cant blame him)
- When asked on a radio show why he turned the Jets down, Rhule answered that he wanted no part of an arranged marriage.

I think folks are reading into the Rhule wants control statements. The direct object of that statement is either usually left out, or is inferred (usually by folks who think DG should go). I will say this. If Rhule wants personnel, good luck finding an organization who is willing to do that for a first time NFL HC, whos never won a National Title in college.

+1. There will be program control requirements from most candidates these days. They will vary by person and situation. It's become almost SOP and the Giants must adapt to it if they want to compete for the best coaches. I think they will now due to realization of this trend and need to dip into the deep end of the coaching pool.

This is from a discussion on another thread...

Ideally we hire Rhule and retain DG in a modified GM role.
where Rhule has personnel control working with Abrams as his cap guru while DG oversees scouting, pro personnel and the day to day operations. This suggested re-structure gives the coaches what they are asking for. Roster control. No candidate being discussed for the Giants has gotten so specific in their requirements to disqualify this proposal.

These guys don't want to deal with all the day to day BS. They want football control. They would be in charge. All teams have a cap manager that works with the HC and GM. DG would work to scout and acquire players based on the coaches vision. All teams have these departments as well working with the HC.

The football support departments don't suddenly disappear because they hired a HC that sets the program agenda and has ultimate authority.

Reason to Keep Gettleman and Not Shurmur  
Samiam : 12/29/2019 2:06 pm : link
Gettleman is coming off a terrific draft and seems to have nailed the #1 question in Jones. Now, granted at this time last year, we thought the 2018 was a great draft which has not materialized this year with subpar performances by Hernandez, Hill and Carter. But 2019:looks fine.

With Shurmur, there are only 2 reasons to keep him. Hes done well with Jones and the team plays hard for him. His negatives vastly outweigh these 2 reason. I wonder if theyll bring in somebody as HC who wants more authority in decision making but who will take a backseat to Gettleman with the understanding that hell retire next year

not that I want to keep shurmur but isn't your number one reason that you want ot keep DG should also be in support of shurmur. Jones has played very well. So how can that be a positive to keep DG around but not big enough to keep Shurmur?

DG gets the credit for identifying jones ability when most others werent feeling it.
shumur gets some credit for helping him develop but his clock management and challenge usage completely wipes out his positive with jones. CONS outweigh the PROS in this case

EVERY week 17 Glazer goes on the air and lists who he thinks is out and who he thinks stays.

EVERY person in the media has speculated for weeks that Shurmur is gone at the end of the season.

Once they got back in charge a circus monkey looks savvy and brilliant comparably
Here's Tisch's recent comment:

Its been a very frustrating season, Tisch said. At the end of the season John Mara and I are gonna get together and discuss the future. As partners we have to be very honest with each other about where we see this team going into the 2020 season.

There's been a lot of interpretation of that statement. A lot of BBIers read it say Tisch wants to tear it all down. Could be, or maybe it's what they do every year.
