Giants Stuff

The Giants just got blown out in the 4th quarter of their Interim Head Coach's first game.  They did play hard, but super conservatively for 3 quarters, that included Darius Powe constantly making the wrong reads, and some ball security issues all around.  In other words, they are going to have a rare high pick come April, and before they can even think about making it, they have to get the right coach and GM in place.

They really can't blow this.  After Parcells jumped ship, the Giants went through 3 coaching regimes before finally finding one that could do what Parcells did. Right now they are through their Handley period, and they cannot afford another Reeves or Fassel era.  They have to find their next Parcells/Coughlin Head Coach, and the next young George Young to be their new GM.  They, really, really cannot have another 13 year free jazz exploration. This is completely on ownership...

Absolutely NO Gettleman!! The entire front office and staff must be cleaned out.

Go young for all positions.

Rich, agree. I hope all his Gettleman chatter is smoke. Would be a typical,stupid, narrow minded Mara move..

If he came with a great coach and Ross leaves, I could live with it.

Don’t trust that he would get a great coach. I love your philosophy, youth,youth, and more youth.

Idiotic if true. This is not a real search at all. Dolan >Mara.

I’m powerless though. Yes, I would hire young guys, and I think Mara is sn incompetent phony. BUT Gettleman, for example, found O’Hara, who had been cut by the Browns, iirc.

His hiring would reflect an insular mindset, BUT it could work. He is not a dope.

My biggest concern with Gettleman is the Panthers players celebrated his dismissal. I don’t know why but it was very strange how it all went down considering it happened right befor I TC.

Another indication he will be hired;

The way they have been doing business over the last five years doesn’t suck a little bit, it sucks a lot. Is he really the guy to turn that around? I am skeptical but again I’m powerless.

It’s going to be tough to stop hating this team. I hope I can.

The big difference between the Yankees and Giants is that the Yankees got rid of Girardi even though things were decidedly moving in the right direction. Mara arrogantly refused to make a change until things got Beyoncé desperate.

How did beyond become Bey? I seriously have no idea how that changed.

They cannot just cut Eli Apple.
