After Giants beatdown of Carolina, Giants co-owner John Mara to
@nypostsports on coaching candidates Joe Judge & Matt Rhule: "I think they are both good coaches. I'm happy with the one we've got."

@Ian_OConnor
On Joe Judge, Giants co-owner John Mara told
@nypostsports -- "Obviously we've struggled this year but he has not lost the locker room, and I've seen that happen over the years. I think the players still believe in him. We've just got to get our guys healthy again."

Injuries are not the problem with team Mr Mara.
The excuse is already baked in

Hi John!
LOL  
DannyDimes : 10/24/2021 5:57 pm : link
What do you expect him to say?
He will give the fans DG's head.  
SFGFNCGiantsFan : 10/24/2021 5:57 pm : link
Then force JJ on the next GM. AWESOME!
Not unexpected  
Dave on the UWS : 10/24/2021 5:58 pm : link
But he waited until the team came off a win to make a positive comment about the coach.

I’m fine with that. I like Judge.
I think this team will have to suck  
Dave on the UWS : 10/24/2021 6:01 pm : link
WITH all the piece before he will make changes. He believes this is a contending team WITH all the pieces. He's wrong of course, but not unexpected.

John. The Giants record is actually better when Barkley is not playing compared to when he is in the lineup. So not sure the cavalry is going to make much of a difference.

SFGFNCGiantsFan : 10/24/2021 6:03 pm : link
I am fine if new GM believes in JJ, but I fear it'll be a prerequisite to getting the job. And that is bound to fail IMO.

It could just so happen to be happenstance but we finally hear from him after they beat the coach they failed to get 😂

GTFO John. The Ravens have lost half their roster!

John can't help but step in. Say nothing. Just nod and walk away. Instead he pisses off on a day the team wins. UFB.
He should not have said anything....

What does it really matter? If Judge bombs in 2022 the new GM will have influence on who the next head coach is anyway. Blowing through coaching staffs every 2 years is not ideal. I just think it gets a bit overplayed about the GM needing to pick the coach, which I don’t even think happens here anyway.
We will see

How the rest of the season plays out.
John has screwed up every decision he has made  
Dave on the UWS : 10/24/2021 6:07 pm : link
for a decade. Does anyone think he will get anything right here? common guys, don't be naive.
On the flip side, if a bunch of these young players start developing and show they can be part of the solution, what decision should he make? Serious question
You guys are being weird

Let’s root for losses so we can fire a coach every 2 years like all the good teams in this league do, right?

You can root for the team to win, but also recognize the obvious: that a lot needs to ve changed if we are going to compete with the top dogs. They aren't mutually exclusive.
Judge is under review  
Lines of Scrimmage : 10/24/2021 6:14 pm : link
He keeps the team fighting and competitive with wins in the division he will have some say this off-season regarding Jones, GM and his coaching staff.

If it falls apart and the locker room fractures George Young 2 will be front and center from the fans and media.

Mara has always been very complimentary of Judge. This is his guy. The key phrase he said was keeping the locker room . He knows more talents needed. He knows Jones is iffy imo.

Well said. I don’t think the comments are bad, it’s all about Judge imo.

fanoftheteam : 10/24/2021 6:19 pm : link
John Maras an asshole! - he gave the fans, especially those on BBi, exactley what they wanted by saying something midseason.. he should of avoided the media and kept his mouth shut.

Sucks that hes the giants owner - hope he sells the team and never says anything again! What fkin loser! John mara = total loser

This is just antagonistic. That won’t happen. The better comment would be elevating Abrams which is possible.

I'm rooting for losses. The only relevance of today was hitting draft position and possibly making the owner think that injuries are the reason the team is so bad.
Acid.

If you are a fan of Judge & Graham (which I am), I think there is value in seeing enough to have them retained. I’m not at the point where I want them to be collateral damage.

Not surprising you would subscribe to this modern and pathetic way of thinking. Let’s lose our way into success! That’s a plan guys!

And by the way, you have no faith in John Mara and John Mara is going nowhere so what is losing going to do according to what you believe?
Injuries are not an excuse, but they are a reason  
dancing blue bear : 10/24/2021 6:26 pm : link
allow for some context in evaluation.

We are missing our top 4 weapons.

our 2 Best OL (and another projected starter and our top 3/4 reserve IOL)

Now the defense has had no excuse all year. they have been dreadful and generally healthy.

The win today was impressive specifically because it was against a pretty good defense with a mostly second string offense.

Jones was really good today. IMO, anyway. he carried alot of scrubs.

The coaching was pretty good today. that's progress.

The team played hard.

Those are good things.

Plus a bunch of young guys flashed, Azeez, Dex, Xman, Peart

Gettleman’s contract expires at the end of the season. The concern is Abrams getting elevated, Gettleman is irrelevant at this point.

Why would he accept being elevated when the Bears are obviously the much better opportunity! :)

What is right on? Winning in the regular season is far different than the playoffs. Your teams that win Super Bowls win the lines still. 17 game season with potential of 4 playoff games your QB needs to win from the pocket mainly. Dave was never wrong in knowing what wins. He just didn’t assemble the right pieces.
