Patrick Graham once called being the defensive coordinator of the Giants his “dream job.” There is at least a chance that he will get to keep it. The 42-year-old Graham, who will be interviewed for the Giants head coaching vacancy, is interested in staying on as the defensive coordinator under a new head coach, according to someone familiar with his thinking. And many believe the Giants would be open to his return in the right situation. Graham was popular with his players, and his defenses were the only successful part of the last two seasons. He’s also well-liked by Giants owners, who gave him a raise to return last year after he declined a chance to interview for the head coaching job with the Jets.... (MORE) |
If we hire an offensive coach like Daboll there is more importance on a veteran defensive stud.
I would argue that the talent level underachieved because the coaching was putrid. If Graham is retained, I’m done with the team… for the umpteenth time.
I think you could do better
Otherwise, playing a prevent all season ain't my cup of tea. I don't care if it "works" or not either. This is supposed to be entertainment.
Because Patrick Graham's defense should be the reason for a lot of that.
Also losing Blake Martinez was an absolute killer, so lets not forget that.
Its already been conveyed that new GM and HC will have the power to choose and make that decision.
chill.
My dream defense:::>
I want a defense that when a RB clears the line of scrimmage he fears for his health.
I want a defense that a TE is fearful to raise his arms and expose his ribs
I want a defense that when a a wide receiver catches a ball he has snot bubbles coming out of his ear holes.
How long has it been since we saw that,.
I want a defense that earns the name..D E F E N S E!
Shone us that Mr GM!
Rust was terrible. But would like to compare the defensive talent each coach had to work with?
I'm not interested.
Everyone was high on Graham after 2020 and now we're down on him even though his 2021 defense ranked higher in DVOA than 2020.
The Giants have a pass rusher issue. Graham can only scheme so much but we don't have players on the roster that can win 1:1 battles. If Schoen and whoever the new head coach is want to keep Graham on they need to get him a legitimate NFL pass rusher.
But if the next HC wants PG to remain as DC, I don't have an issue with that. I just wouldn't want PG to be forced upon the new HC under any circumstances.
Just like Garrett had nothing to with the Maras.
Right
Giants need more talent. The defense isn't going to magically improve without more pressure off the edge.
I dont want Graham as the HC or any part of the team. Players need to be held accountable too. What you see on tape not what you saw at practice.
Thank him and wish him the best at his next team. Start fresh and move on.
