Big Blue Huddle

Need an all points bulletin on the whereabouts of one OBJ!

I think the only real difference (if I recall correctly) I see is that AB had to battle through some pretty serious ankle issues...nevertheless he was a mighty tough hombre.

The more that comes out about Johnny, the more I wish he would sell his half to Tish, move on and take all his kin with him.

Does Pacheco remind you of Ahmad Bradshaw?!
I'm sure having flashbacks watching him.

Bring back Colonel Tom in as President of Football Operations: Schoen & Daboll both report to him and all the Mara/Tish clowns are contractually obligated to sit down & STFU.

Tommy in the end is a steady hand who guides Daboll visa vis his behavior....and keeps the organization honest on its promise protecting Schoen to run the football operation with no interference.

Then sit back and enjoy watching the Giants get back to its winning ways.

We've only had interim from the defensive side since the Tuna.

If they offered anything more than a 2nd and a 4th to switch 1sts....he should've been over ruled or fired the next day.

Nick Saban GM/ CO-HC
BILL BELLICHICK HC/part time President
Charlie Weiss - Chief Hot dog vendor
Romeo Crennel - Director of Half-time activities

Yes.

He'd like to consult his way right into the Head Coach of the 2025 New York Football Giants.

Can we sign and trade him to the Texans for a late 2nd?

Who is, as you say, aspiring, this year could be a waste of time next year. It's always the 'hot' guy, as was Kadka and Wink last year, but have one dreadful year and that stock goes way down.
I agree on some retreads, but a guy like Rivera, who cut his teeth on the defensive side of the ball, then became an HC and a successful one at that, will, most likely, still be a good, if not very good, defensive-minded guy.
For me, I don't think his negatives are his defensive schemes, I think just if he would get along as a sort of underling of Daboll.

I don't think Daboll needs an "underling". I simply don't believe him to be that fragile.

But for anyone in a leadership position, trusting those on your management team is critical. The second you believe you're being undermined, you need to take action.

I will also add that he gave Wink the benefit of the doubt by A) holding an air it out meeting with all coaches and 2) once he got to the leaks he didn't hold Wink responsible for the Wilkins brothers, he fired them himself.

To me, each example was Daboll being a man in the situation.

Quote from: DaveBrown74 on January 20, 2024, 01:44:53 PMYou're right. I guess my point was more that you do have some retreads out there who are good DCs. Jim Schwartz is an example. So is Spags. So is Vic Fangio. I think you tend not to see them as much with OCs. Bill O'Brien types are usually busts.

Of course, I get your point that it would be great to find the next Demeco Ryans. The only thing I'd say to that though is if you do manage to find a young DC who is excellent and he has never been a HC before, you're probably going to lose him in a couple years. With a Schwartz type you don't have to worry about that.

All solid points.

I also wouldn't argue against the likes of Spaghetti, Schwartz or Fangio.
