I mean to the "he got dealt a shitty hand" people  
NoGainDayne : 1/11/2022 10:27 pm : link
I am 100% confident he would still have a job if he didn't

1) Throw other coaches under the bus

2) QB sneak in victory formation twice in a row

There were a number of other things I personally would have fired him for. But IMO he would still have his job were it not for these two things. He could have had a 10:30 rant that just omitted the part where he broke unwritten football rules and he'd still have a job.

He had tough circumstances. He made them harder on himself. That's why he doesn't have a job.

Some people I'm sad to see leave the front office of my team. Most I'm fairly neutral towards as I wish them the best but do not want them associated with the teams I root for.

There are only 3 people ever for teams that I've rooted for that I was more than happy to see go:

1) DG
2) JJ
3) Isiah Thomas

That's the list. And the fact that the Giants employed two of the most unsuccessful yet arrogant SOBs I've ever seen as team leaders of any franchise is a bit terrifying TBH. But I'm trying to be hopeful that they want to fix this.

I can understand getting your hopes up for JJ, not as much DG lol. But he was such a fraud, I don't understand any pity for the guy. Him calling after being fired to check if he was missed? I guess? is just so in line with everything that was wrong with him. I am fairly confident I'll never again see such an insecure person as a leader of a team, ever again.

AdamBrag : 1/11/2022 10:43 pm : link
like Judge never faced adversity and really didn't know how to handle it.

He's been very slow to fix any mistakes and he's quick to blame others for his mistakes.

These are all signs of inexperience. He actually might be a good coach down the road, but he wasn't close to ready now.

But I think Joe Judge will be a Head Coach again and will succeed. It’s going out on a limb, but I did see some positives to go along with his passion, or gift of gab.

1. He chose the right Defensive Coordinater
2. The team played hard for him all of last year
3. Watching his weekly YouTube show, you could see how detail oriented he was and was very clear in his teaching.

I think he was torpedoed by a few things.

1. Gentleman and this atrocity of a roster
2. Garrett and his archaic offense

Mara said he’s a young coach who will need time to succeed. His game management should have been further along in year 2. That’s my biggest issue…. The immaturity shown with the press these final 6 weeks was him buckling under the immense pressure of a crumbling franchise.

With all of that being said this had to happen in order to get all facets of the organization on the same page. Unfortunately Judge was working with the biggest dopes in football.



Judge was over his head. If you can't see it...



When you get sent out in the Atlantic ocean in a row boat, it's easy to look "in over your head."
Judge has many things to work on, clearly (e.g. time mgt, more aggressive offensive approach, better use of the pre-season, etc), but he was hired as a 38 year old HC and the owner stated that they needed to show patience with him. They paired him with THE WORST GM in the NFL, and 10 years worth of bad decisions. They "encouraged" Judge to hire Garrett as his OC. This is an organizational failure and it consumed a young coach that had some potential.

One thing I’m glad about is that the Mara’s and Giants FO as a whole clearly care about their reputation/perception among the fans. The Giants becoming a national joke thanks to Judge and the “fan confidence rating” in the organization at a 40 year low, the Maras felt the pressure and made the move that needed to be made.

Getting a new GM from outside the organization is the most important thing. Hopefully that leads to a HC that finally delivers after 3 straight losers leading the team.

It sounds like he demanded heavy personnel influence for next season.



I was living in the SF Bay Area for Hue Jackson's one season as Raiders' HC.

Raiders got off to a 7-4 start and HJ was in his glory. Then they lost 4 of their last 5, including a Week 17 home loss that knocked them out of a playoff spot.

HJ gave a meltdown post-game PC, saying how sick he was at the result, and how he wouldn't be feeling that way at this time next season because he would be taking control of personnel decisions.

I thought: that is really not a wise thing to say.

He was fired shortly afterwards and it took five years for him to get another HC shot with the Browns.

Judge will be lucky to get that outcome.

There is no doubt in my mind that all negative chatter on here, twitter, call ins to radio shows, direct letters, and even the petition. The more things we can do, the more pressure we as fans can bring does have an effect on this ownership.

And I thought made a critical mistake by firing Garrett mid season, a mistake both for football and political reasons.

I’d stress the human side of this. He wasn’t sufficiently qualified, walked into an awful and highly politicized situation, and gradually came unraveled. I’m sure it’s been incredibly painful for him. Hope he gets back on his feet and starts the next phase of his career soon.


Did he embarrass the org? Or was thee org already an embarrassment thrust upon him? Psst? It was the latter.

Judge got fucked over by DG and this leadership. And while everyone is rah fucking rah, just remember that there have been other teams that have cycled head coaches every couple years and never seem to have success...and they have historically been the bottom feeders of the league. The Giants didn't fail bc of JJ. They failed Judge in ever giving him a chance at success, and good luck to the next poor schlub, hopefully he'll get a realistic shot at building something here.

I think he also lost the locker room and other people in the Giants org. If the players don't want you its over, and in any organization you need to create relationships and not burn internal bridges. Judge did neither. I'm convinced if the players were playing hard, and had told management that they supported Judge, he'd still be here.

I don't know whether he did or did not lose the locker room. Even if he did, that was not the determining factor.

His rant where he threw everybody but himself under the bus started the avalanche. Starting yesterday, he needed to the mea culpa, and present to ownership how he was going to change himself. Instead he went in brash, defiant, and arrogant which is how he always is. I am sure he was still throwing others under the bus... It stopped working.

That is what got him fired.

Looking back, it was so much of the Giants need to think outside the box for their next coach, need to get with modern times, outside the organization. That was Joe Judge

While he had some positives, you absolutely can’t start over at the top with a new GM and keep the HC who has that 2 year record, despite all he was up against.

You start over and go complete from GM to HC. Has to be this way, as they are directly tied to each other

Judge was a risky choice but not a modern coach. He claimed to run “multiples” but his offense was as vanilla as they come and defense was fairly vanilla both extremely conservative.

He was authoritarian style which is by no means modern.

The Mara’s played up the pats thing and sold him as modern but he wasn’t at all

Bleedblue10 : 1/12/2022 8:17 am : link
was a complete fraud. He got this job off a Great interview. That was his resume. He was the best interview Mara said he ever had. Hindsight shows just how ridiculous that is when you really think about it. He was set up poorly nobody can deny that but this organization, this team, basically everything was too big for him. He was learning on the fly in the NY market. Maybe that would've worked in Houston or Cleveland but not here. It swallowed him up and unfortunately everyone should've seen this coming when he was hired.
He was set up poorly  
Lines of Scrimmage : 1/12/2022 8:52 am : link
All the Coaches have been set up poorly going back almost a decade. That is the result of almost a decade of terrible drafting.

He also had a chance to assess the roster after his first year. I believe he had major input in that. Compare the 2005 offseason to 2021. Perhaps you can argue some bad luck but TC had a much better understanding of what his team needed and it was addressed with results. 2021 very little. To me that doomed Judge more than the rants.

Imperative that a first time HC makes progress from year 1 to 2. History is not kind to those who don't. You can not like his rants but I was more concerned with how he viewed

I don't like celebrating anyone losing their job, even though Judge is not your average Joe who files for unemployment but still. I had really high hopes for him and was fired up after his introductory press conference. He was exactly what I wanted - a young, tough sob who would restore Giant pride. I bought into everything he was promising and was honestly satisfied with how his first season went last year. The team fought hard and was in games and although Judge had his issues with the Xs and Os, he showed promise. But, I was fooled. We all were. Judge was fugazy. The tough guy character he played in front of cameras was not the same guy in real life and he did not coach that way either. Of course we don't know him in real life but just seeing how he coached scared and indecisive told you everything you needed to know about who is in real life. That being said, he would still be here if wasn't for his big mouth. The excuses were lined up perfectly for him this season. Injuries, covid, no QB, no OL, Gettleman, ect. Yet that 11 minute wannabe WWE promo and going for the QB sneaks were his own undoing. You cannot do that without a resume and a track record. He made himself really unlikeable, fake and taking shots at other coaches is a big no no. Maybe one day this guy can redeem himself and coach again but he needs to look in the mirror and stfu.

That's not authoritarian. No one except tv people cared about that. Sterling Shepard was quoted as laughing about it and saying practices at Oklahoma were tougher.

Based on the timing and weird sort of timeline...  
jamison884 : 1/12/2022 10:45 am : link
From a business management standpoint, I'm guessing the ownership was conflicted on Monday morning, and gave Judge an ultimatum to submit a formal review of the season, including overall player evaluations of the current roster, who he would keep and continue to work out, what amount of cap space this resulted in for them to play with, and his recommended direction for personnel decisions given Gettleman's retirement and the search for a new GM.

I'm guessing, again, all speculation, but the end of the business day yesterday was the deadline to complete and present the evaluation, and ownership wasn't impressed.

That's how I'd approach it if I were on the fence internally. If he thinks players 1-20 are keepers and worth the contract, but ownership felt many of them were overcompensated or underperformed, and/or the proposed cap room after this evaluation resulted ina n untenable 2022 roster, then he was gone.

Given the performance of the roster, the team, and our cap situation, I'm sure most HC's in the league would be fired in this specific position and this gave ownership the confidence needed to pull the plug for a reset.

I'm really curious to know if this is in anyway accurate; a fun little game for me to guess and see if anything was right.

PS: I didn't read all ~8 or 9 pages of comments to see if there was an in-depth news report on the process leading to the firing, so apologies if my post is pure BS speculation hah. :)

Excited for a chance to see SOMETHING NEW at least. Even if it's a shitty team, it still gives us hope for another 1.5 years or so that we may have gotten the next few major decisions right, just like we were sort of confident for 1.5 years of Judge before the fan base collectively had enough.

oe Judge had no business being an NFL head coach for two years. It was a gross miscalculation on ownership's part, a panic, knee-jerk reaction, and they should know better than to let Bill Belichick steer them. Shame on them. And, better late than never for Giants fans, by the time they spent a few more hours with Judge this week, exploring his vision for the team after his egregious in-game malpractice and ridiculous press conference pablum, they came to the only reasonable decision, which was to terminate his contract.

Getting a reasonably accomplished general manager candidate to take the job while having to stick with Judge would have always been silly. And trying to sell him to your fanbase with season ticket renewals going out and a half-year offseason set to begin would have been backwards. History would indicate that John Mara won't get this latest reboot right, either, but at this point anything would be better than keeping this cursed experiment going.

arniefez : 1/12/2022 11:32 am : link
I disagree with his article and disagree with most of you. I like Joe Judge. I still think he could have been a successful HC. I think Belichick was correct he was better than the last two guys John Mara hired.

What would have happened if Joe Judge came to the Giants with a different GM than Dave Gettleman, what if John Mara had hired one of the people he's interviewing now when Judge was hired? What would have happened if a different OC than Jason Garrett ran the offense?

IMO the Giants would have won more than 10 games. The OL would have looked very different. There would be edge rushers on the roster. There wouldn't be two fullbacks and another handful of special teams first players on the roster, that was Judge's fault but a smart GM would not have allowed it. And then there's the QB play. Would a different GM have kept Daniel Jones on scholarship?

HC in the NFL is a skill set that seems to be pretty rare. It also seems to be very difficult to identify. How many good ones are there? A dozen? 15? I think under better circumstances Judge would have had a shot to be one of them.

Having said all of that I think the job of trying to remake the Giants organizational dysfunction by himself into something that could win the NFL broke him. He melted down and had to go after the way the 2nd half of the season played out on and off the field.

Hopefully he saved his money and has a good financial advisor. He's going to be paid 25 million dollars for his 33 games as HC NYG. He's a young guy but IMO he's going to go to the very back of the line for another job, and I'm not talking an HC job in the NFL.

What if anything is he going to be offered? Back to a ST coach? A college HC job? Take a year off? But sometimes when you take a year off you never get a chance to get back on the coaching carousel. I wish him well and wish it would have worked out better for him and for us.

IMO like most things media and entertainment there is some some bias and some agenda, pro Giants in this case. I think they are dependent on access to the 1925 Giants Way for their revenue stream so it makes sense to me.

The Giants podcast I highly recommend everyone listening to is The Giants Guys episode 63 with Leonard Marshall. I sports love Leonard. He's great in this interview IMO. I thought that some of what he says about the current NFL and guys the Giants should trade for (teams would never trade those players) isn't realistic or completely dialed in but the conversation on the his Giant history and Giants history in general are great and his take on the current team is pretty good too.

Not sure I am seeing this right stuff comments. Giants were very undermanned at the end. Everyone saw that. He buckled under that pressure. Not sure that element ever leaves him wherever he coaches but again I wish him well. It is a heck of a hurdle to overcome.

Exactly. Judge was the definition of style (his talk) over substance (his product).

Look, we all got fooled. I can see why Mara took was drawn in with Judge getting endorsed by BB and Saban.

But, as you know, interviewing is a process. And if executed correctly you should be able to narrow down the right people and get very close to the best hire. Hopefully the Giants are thinking about this for this opportunity and won't make the same mistakes again.

I would sum this up by saying "he had one more win with one more game; big fucking deal"
