Thank you to the Mara and Tisch families, to the organization and incredible support staff and to the fans -- proud, loyal fans who rival any fanbase in sports with their passion and devotion. It was a privilege to represent these people during the past two years. Thank you for showing up week-in and week-out to support our team. "I also want to express my appreciation to the coaching staff. They put in long nights and early mornings to help the players be successful. Their work is often behind the scenes, but the dedication and love they invest into these players and team is the foundation for anything that happens on the field. I am proud to have worked with the group of men we had and grateful for each and every one of them. "Finally, to the players -- both present and former -- thank you. To the alumni players who helped invest in our program, thank you for believing in and helping develop these young men. You set the Giants standard and you continue to lead the way. "To the current Giants players, thank you most of all. When I became the head coach, I said that we would ask you to come in and give everything you had every day. And you did. I am so proud of you, grateful for you, and I believe in you. "On behalf of me and my family, we leave New York with the utmost gratitude for the community, the organization, the people and the team. Thank you." |
yeah, but screw the robots? Is that what you're saying?
Farewell and good luck in New England/Houston/college. Joe Judge seems like a good dude. Just wasn't a good coach for the giants. Maybe with experience he can become better. The old gm didn't do him any favors.
I wish him well.
I agree that he is not likely to get another HC job, unless he gets a major college HC job down the road and kills it.
He’s got a wonderful young family, I hope he can find another head coaching gig in the SEC.
Best of luck to JJ.
I wonder if there's an "asshole boilerplate" to even chose from.
I agree. Firing him was the right move given the circumstances, but he totally got a raw deal here.
Next time win the box along the lines first. Everything gets easier afterwards.
I hate seeing anyone fired in any line of business, but JJ had to go. And it isn't like he'll be hurting for $.
Try again in the college ranks somewhere. Learn from his mistakes. I believe his style would be better in college than pros right now.
What Mississippi State job

I don't ever see him getting another NFL HC job, but I think he'd do well in college. In hindsight, it would have been better for both parties-him & us-if he took the Mississippi State job.

Nevermind. Read this wrong.
What does it matter what he’s being paid? The guy is obviously passionate about the game, and may have gotten screwed in his one HC chance.
Last few weeks were embarrassing, but I wish him well
While I think Judge needed to go, he certainly wasn't surrounded by the best and the brightest.

Wish him and family well.

He’s got 15m coming to him. He’s financially set. Let’s not act like he’s been wrongly sentenced to prison or that he’s got a terminal illness here. He was a contributor to his own downfall. His life isn’t over and he will be able to coach somewhere. He frankly never should have gotten this job. Both he and the Giants, especially John Mara should take lessons from it and move forward.
Wish him well and hopefully he lands on his feet

I don’t remember McAdoo & Shurmur getting mocked by the fans like Judge did.

He walked into a fucked up situation no doubt. But he didn't do himself any favors the last month or so. If he had just STFU, he'd probably still be employed.

McAdoo got absolutely crucified his last season here. To be honest I’d say one could argue McAdoo got more of raw deal than Judge if one were to suggest there’s raw deals to be had.
That was a good listen today. After that week two loss to WFT, I just knew it was 2003 all over again. I won’t be shocked to see Joe Judge come back with another team - and beat the Giants - sometime down the road. But the rant after the Chicago loss sealed his fate.
Best of Luck
