If the Pats can somehow win the SB this year, without Brady, maybe BB will realize that he has accomplished everything he possibly could in NE and would finally look for a new challenge. And the one job he would leave NE for would be to be GM of the Giants. He loves the Giant organization and handing him the keys to the kingdom here could convince him to leave NE for. He could hand off the reigns to Josh McDaniels, who has not taken any other HC job becuase he still has hopes of succeeding Bellichick one day.
Do we need another thread designation for “Fan Fiction?”
And honestly, I don't think John Mara is smart enough or willing to turn the entire football operation over to Belichick - which is depressing.

There have been enough rumblings from sources, including players, that at certain points in time, both Cowher (ship sailed a long time ago) and Belichick (not so long ago) both had at least tepid interest in the NYG job. I wouldn't completely discount it.
We also know that Parcells wanted to come back at one point.
I'd agree the ship has sailed, he's 70 and has a terrific situation in NE, left to his own devices etc.
In all seriousness, Giants need to stop looking to their past to solve the future.
I think so too...or at least I think it was out there but Mara found his moral compass again and played things by the book.
I hope I am wrong.

McAdoo and Judge were not at all linked to the NYG way, past or present.
Maybe we should look to the past. The last time we did we hired Coughlin.
If I were him I'd stay right where I am
Running the whole show
Being GM-only for Bill would be painful for him
Its good to be the King.
Tom Brady did an end around on him insisting Garapolo be traded but Tom is gone
Also the Giants need a lot of fixing and Bill does not want another Cleveland on his Resume
Would be nice though, but only if you gave him the whole show- GM/HC
History - ( New Window )
In hindsight it was a horrible horrible decision that set us back years
Too boot Garrett had a bad resume as an OC.....what was Mara thinking?
In my mind Garrett's love affair with Jerry Jones made it beyond horrible...

We've just about run though all former Giants assistants to turn into head coaching candidates, have we not?
Other franchises have coaching talent too.
We've only just begun being fascinated by the Belichick coaching and executive tree, so I would expect they'll keep going to this well.

McAdoo was the OC when he was promoted to HC.
How broadly do you want to approach this? Results aside, his path to HC was basically identical to Parcells'.
Kraft was involved and I think that is when the Giant rumors were the strongest. They lost to Philly that year in the Super Bowl. It kind of reminded me of when Parcells had issues with Kraft and they also lost in the Super Bowl. Parcells was with the Jets the following year. I was holding out hope with BB.

Did you get the video yet of Jerrah handing Garrett a paper sack of money in the back of the Vincent T. Lombardi Memorial Rest Area. I think that was the "drop" point.
LOL what an image
No Homer I didnt but you can use venmo, coinbase, zelle
no need for the paper bag anymore
having said that I actually knew the son of a famous mobster
they use currency, bags, shovels and maps...for real
Having said all that send me the video LOL
You know whats tragic....Garretts effect lives on.
Jones confidence is destroyed and he will likely take the free agency route out of town, if he does come back to 2018 form...
He needs a rousing finish under Freddie. Even under Garrett we are 3 out of 5 the last 5 games
I'm looking for a run here 10-7
