Which is how it usually is - I don't get indignant, just apathetic. But I am just a little bit sad. Most people who claim to understand football are clueless (and ever moreso about their own cluelessness). So the anger I feel at him losing his job is more based in the unearned sense of validation his dismissal will give the knuckledraggers in the fanbase.

You finally allowed the Giants to reach rock bottom. You were dealt a terrible hand but your inability to design your system around your talent was your fatal flaw. You talked the talk but you couldnt walk the walk.
That said, your overall horenndousness led to the Mara family to finally look in the mirror and completely tear it down. For that I will always be grateful.
Judge was his own worst enemy. That quarterback sneak followed up by or along with bizarre statements a t press conferences. That’ did him in
But I do appreciate the fact that he did try and bring back pride to the Giants. He just wasn’t the right guy to do it, And he made the mistake of coaching scared
but I'm relieved we are going in a different direction. I'm sure he'll land on his feet as an assistant somewhere or back in the college ranks. Just didn't work out.
Not a good tenure here and didn’t work through his rookie mistakes. I still believe he’s going to pop back up at some point and do okay as a head coach. Much like McAdoo, he just wasn’t ready.
I think it might be an inducement to him and others we're interviewing. The Bears want him too, and they've already fired their HC. So in that sense, Judge's firing puts us on equal terms.
Then it became apparent even with all the injuries he just didn't know how to make adjustments in games and always talked big but coached scared. I'm wondering if he lost the locker room towards the end of the season as well as the fanbase.
I wish him success in his future and don't want to sound like I'm dancing on his grave either. He tried he did his best learning on the job he was in over his head.

Well said. Not only are these people stupid, they are deplorable human beings too. Celebrating someone elses failure is a running commentary on your own life.

I'd invite you to read most of the comments. Most are wishing him well but happy that the Giants are moving in what they perceive to be the right direction. I don't think that makes a person deplorable.
He was the young guy that was supposed to our guy for a long time. It’s sad. I feel for him (a little bit. He can go cry in his millions and I cannot). Ultimately, he was nowhere near ready for an NFL head coaching job and especially not for a franchise that had absolutely nothing to build on. Best of luck wherever it is you land coach Judge

Maybe that doesn't. But "I'm sad for him, but happy the team is moving in the right direction" is not the predominant reaction to this news.
I loved the "We will not tank" speech from last year
I think the first year was ok and that year two would be much better, as did many others. I wish him the best of luck in the college ranks or back as STs coach with NE.
that the fan base and region can be proud of. Thanks for putting our players in the best position to be successful on the field. Thanks for coaching a team that consistently punched our opponents in the nose for 60 minutes with a relentless competitive attitude. Thank you for preaching discipline football. Thank you for focusing on the fundamentals.
Well, it all sounded good. Unfortunately none of that materialized. I do wish JJ the best. Hope he can take this experience, learn from it, and get another opportunity in the future. To be fair, he had an uphill battle from the start.
Yes I said it
Here's to you, Joe! Grab yourself a medium pepsi on the way out.
Well said. I agree a d feel similarly
He does seem like he'd be a good recruiter. I do actually wish him luck. But this needed to happen.
That said, your overall horenndousness led to the Mara family to finally look in the mirror and completely tear it down. For that I will always be grateful.
I got fooled…I’m sure I wasn’t alone.
I wish he and his family well though…
But I do appreciate the fact that he did try and bring back pride to the Giants. He just wasn’t the right guy to do it, And he made the mistake of coaching scared
Best of luck going forward JJ.

When you look back, the whole pool of head coach candidates 2 years ago sucked. Rhule, Wink, Mccarthy... Maybe Bieniemy...
With this roster, they all would have failed.
Judge will have success somewhere. One day.
i don't care about post game pressers. i dont act like these people owe me anything.
but mara meddling fumbled this thing from well before Judge was hired.
The "kneel down"
Lost the players
He seems very arrogant on the surface and maybe he just couldn't admit he didn't know and was wrong
