Title: Pick your New Head Coach
Post by: Ed Vette on January 04, 2016, 07:13:38 PM
Name your pick of any available candidates and why you believe in this candidate. An existing HC is acceptable if it makes sense that he would become available. One post per Member and no debate. Choose your man.

Chuck Pagano. I heard he's available and he's been successful.

Hmmm.....

Probably will get ridiculed but I'm going with McAdoo. I really believe in this offense, I think he is an incredibly talented young coach and I take the chance rolling him with Eli. Worst case in 3 years, he and Eli go together and we start over, best case we have a great offense for years but he must find himself one hell of a D coordinator and that worries me but like I said I roll with it and see what happens since either way in 3 years there will be some drop off when Eli gets close to 40.

I want mcDermott - A younger DC, who came up the scouting ranks.


Unless Dave Gentlemen gives a glowing recommendation I do not think they would hire him though.

 Yep,  I agree...almost has to be Mac...

    Eli on Francesca....he wants to stay in this offense , he wants Mac.   

      You can't bring in a head coach and stick him with someone else's coordinators , so I really don't see what choice they have.

Get David Shaw in here. Failing that, Hue Jackson. He reminds me of Arians.

But I'm willing to bet top money that they will go with McAdoo. Can't wait for the reactions on this board to that one.

Sean Payton

The only decent option available
Title: Re: Pick your New Head Coach
Post by: katkavage on January 04, 2016, 08:03:36 PM
The Carolina D coordinator or David Shaw. A new direction with no ties to the Giants, please.
Title: Re: Pick your New Head Coach
Post by: T200 on January 04, 2016, 08:18:52 PM
1st choice: Sean Payton
Sean's been around the block and is a no-nonsense coach. He can get the most out of this offense and is familiar with NY Giants football. If he can land a solid defensive coordinator, we should be good.

2nd choice: Josh McDaniels
He's had his chance in Denver and it didn't fare very well. I believe he's learned a lot from Little Bill from their years together and there doesn't seem to be any animosity as he's on his second stint under BB in NE. Although he has no ties to the Giants, Bill does. And bringing a little bit of the Patriots way to NY isn't a bad thing from my perspective. I would think he's learned from his Denver days and would presumably do things differently if he had another chance at HC.

The instructions were pretty simple. Pick your HC. No debate or editorial or breaking someone's chops for their pick.

Post by: Cid in Dupont on January 04, 2016, 08:34:33 PM
The 2 Mc's...McDaniels or McAdoo.

Change the strength & conditioning coach, let Reese do the talent evals, and keep spags.

If we hire McD, then keep McA as OC.

McDermott I guess, but I have little enthusiasm for him.

I have a strong hunch it will be McAdoo.

20 years of wilderness wandering I see ahead for this team.

Doug Marrone....9 wins with Kyle Orton in Buffalo and fired for "sexy Rexy".  ????

You can dictate to him that McAdoo is his OC and let him go from there.

None of the suggestions fixes the "talent procurement" problem that we have.  But al least we know Reese's real job is to be the insulating, well paid buffer for the Mara's.

Bring in chip Kelly. I feel this is a no-brainer.
I think chip is an innovator on offense and can work with Eli manning.
I understand chip Kelly inherited a 4-12 team & won the division.

As long as we don't give up a draft pick to get a coach, which I think is stupid when you draft at #10!

They could give Spoags the HC job and keep Mc Adoo and move forward.

More than anything this team needs defense. 

Again,I think it would be stupid to give up a draft choice or draft choices for a Coach.

Truthfully, the way things are playing out...I wouldn't mind seeing Jon Gruden (I swear, I would've never said that a year ago!)

But given the current climate of coaches on the horizon, and the intrigue of adding a sibling rivalry to a natural division rival...I am beginning to warm to the idea.

I will start out thinking that Doug Marrone is the correct choice.  No need to explain other than to say that I have read a number of positive comment on other blogs that were compelling enough to overcome my distaste of the way that he left Buffalo.

Mikey:  If Brady were to announce his retirement after they get knocked out of the playoffs, it becomes a possibility, IMO, but I don't think he's ready to hang up his cleats yet.  One or two more years, IMO.

Honestly none of the names being associated with the Giants really excites me.  Of all the guys I have looked at (I tend to research these guys) the only one that seems to have a resume that makes me think he could be successful is Lovie Smith, so that's my answer.
Title: Re: Pick your New Head Coach
Post by: UKGiantsFan on January 07, 2016, 08:09:12 AM
So far we know that the short-list contains.....

Ben McAdoo
Steve Spagnuolo
Adam Gase
Doug Marrone
Sean McDermott
Terryl Austin

It may have contained Sean Peyton but he's no longer in consideration

No 'big names' on that short-list as yet but no one who has failed dismally as a HC besides Spagnuolo (courtesy interview).

Even balance of OC's and DC's

Title: Re: Pick your New Head Coach
Post by: Chris on January 07, 2016, 09:11:59 AM
Lovie Smith,

Second choice Doug Marrone.

Dream choice Bill Belichick.
Title: Re: Pick your New Head Coach

So far with 2 or more votes and first choice of multiple votes.

McDermott- 6 Votes
Spagnuolo- 4 Votes

3 Votes
McAdoo
Shaw
McDaniels
Marrone

2 Votes
Saban
Gruden
Lovey Smith

Post by: spiderblue43 on January 07, 2016, 03:52:07 PM
I wouldn't have a problem with Lovie at all. But I think McDermott more so. Shaw and Saban really have great situations-why leave? McDaniels seems a stretch to me with Eli so enamored with McAdoo and the team needing a presence, a gravitas too. Lovie has that kind of respect with players, although he chose badly with the Glazers.
Title: Re: Pick your New Head Coach
Post by: EDjohnst1981 on January 07, 2016, 04:17:54 PM
I wanna see Jim Schwartz involved somewhere and if Marrone is the HC I think JS is the DC.
