from John Mara. He is involved in too many important decisions and too many of his decisions have been wrong (coach/GM). He is involved too much or he is relying on the advice of old school has-beens like Acorsi when it comes to hiring.
We will never know for sure, but it is my belief that Judge was forced to hire Garrett as an OC/mentor.
So, I see in some of these threads.. fire DG, fire Judge, fire Garrett. However, all that does is give the fan base false hope. There is too much wrong with EVERYTHING and one firing cannot make a difference.
This is about the fact that this organization is behind the times in so many ways. There is NO WAY we can be this bad year after year without the problem being the person at the very top.
A few weeks ago, I saw a youtube video. Contained within was a conversation between Belichik and Brady. They were at Metlife stadium. While Belichik was praising the organization, he also told Brady that when he comes back, he sees the same people that were here decades ago. He said they never fire anyone other than coaches. The both laughed at that and my guess is they forgot they were mic'ed.
I know this is meaningless and petty... but even the Giants website does not work well. Everything they touch.
clearly BBI should seize control of the front office and run it by committee.
No.. hopefully some self awareness that he is the problem. Then, reach out to someone NOT already linked to the organization for help. Then, step completely away

Because he is the person who has to pick the person to give control to. What? Are you going to have Tisch pick a guy.

Then he’s still the person who picks the person who gets control. Same thing. Same bad idea.

back in the 70's the league told the Mara's they were going to hire George Young.
If it is a bad idea, then I do not know how allowing Mara to pick another GM on his own is a good idea. Calling for DG or Judge to be fired now is pointless.

That was because the other owner objected. You think Tisch is going to the commissioner.

Self-awareness? Mara is a guy who was born on third base and thinks he hit a triple
He is not great but there is more to this team being 1-9 than Garrett. I doubt Mara got a lot of say over this horrible roster. He OK'ed barkley , Jones and Garrett. 90% of people like the jones and barley yet want to asct like garrett of all things is thre reason this roster is horrible
There are an awful lot of insiders here saying Mara does this and Mara does that. All we know for sure is it isn’t working, but to say we know the details of every reason why.... we don’t.
Lastly, Mara has to make that first hire no matter what some of you are dreaming up. If he gets that one wrong it’s always going to be ugly. Now he’s gonna hire an “outside” GM and let him pick his own guy, and this guarantees nothing.
This is not an argumentative comeback at all, but is it really true? Haven’t the giants virtually turned over the entire operation since Reese and coughlin were dumped? Or am I mistaken? Some scouts surely remain but we know Mark ross isn’t here anymore. Same with Reese. Obviously Chris Mara is.
I guess my question is, what if we hired a guy like Sean McVay a few years back? Is he flourishing here? Maybe that’s the million dollar question.
The owners need to step back and let professionals not named Gettleman run the team
