Of the available DCs or poss. available DCs, who’d you like?

Big Blue '56 : 1/15/2022 11:43 am
Assuming Graham doesn’t stay?

Bowles? Zimmer? others?
Bowles is already a DC with Tampa,  
Simms11 : 1/15/2022 11:45 am : link
but Zimmer or Fangio could be pretty darn good.
100% Fangio  
Eric on Li : 1/15/2022 11:47 am : link
just got fired so you probably get a nice 2-3 year window of him running the defense and not getting poached away.

He's my favorite.
Fangio

would be ideal, imv..

What’s Lovie Smith doing these days..😎
Baltimore ties  
Shock-Man : 1/15/2022 11:57 am : link
is something Fangio has, so Hortiz has some familiarity
I like Zimmer and Fangio

Experienced DC’s
Fangio, if you can get him.  
MOOPS : 1/15/2022 12:05 pm : link
He's about 65 so his HC days are behind him. You could ride him into retirement if the chips fell just right.
Depends  
Sammo85 : 1/15/2022 12:08 pm : link
on who is the HC really.

If Giants go for a DC as HC, it's likely that DC will promote somebody they're familiar with.

An OC as HC, I could see a lean on a veteran defensive mind like Fangio or Zimmer.

Bills have some solid defensive coaches who have come up under McDermott/Frazier there recently. The LBers and secondary talent has been well utilized there. Could see one of them get a shot.

I don't know that I have a preference between them.  
TC : 1/15/2022 12:22 pm : link
But I do think it likely a new GM and HC will want a guy of their own choosing. Graham has been a good DC, but his bend don't break D that conceded so much underneath stuff wasn't fun to watch. Though it's true what he could do was certainly limited by personnel, game circumstance, a lousy offence and questionable HC'ing decisions.

Agreed, it's entirely possible that Fangio never gets another HC job so he could be here for years IF the Giants hire the right coach this time.

Fangio is the perfect DC candidate and he would provide added benefit of HC experience if the Giants decide to hire a first time HC.
Keep ours

Hire Flores and it's a done deal.

He did a great job with a ton of young players.
Graham  
Archer : 1/15/2022 2:08 pm : link
I really like Graham.
He was able to get the most out of the defense

If the offense was more productive the defense would have been on the field less and the results would be even better.

I hope that they keep him

+1
Fangio  
JB_in_DC : 1/15/2022 2:15 pm : link
would be set and forget it on the defensive side. An amazing bonus for an offensive minded young HC.
I would be fine with  
Angel Eyes : 1/15/2022 2:24 pm : link
Zimmer, Fangio, or even Peter Giunta.
Add my voice to the Fangio chorus  
Greg from LI : 1/15/2022 2:25 pm : link
His track record is outstanding.
Each DC has their own style and scheme  
shadow_spinner0 : 1/15/2022 10:26 pm : link
who would be the DC that best fits Giants personnel or does that not matter?

Add Leslie Frazier to that list.
