Big Blue Huddle

Much rather have this guy at this money than Barkley at what he is getting.  Singletary actually plays football games.

But, that's what the new fans want. Today will be the Taylor Swift show. The NFL will enjoy thousands and thousands of new viewers that they didn't have to spend one penny to market. Just viewing to get a glimpse of Swift. Occasionally, we may get a glimpse of football. There will be sooooo many shots of Swift you'll think you're at a concert.

exaggerate much?

no, it is not too long.

Well, he did have a HUGE game against the Eagles to close out last season.

1) New owner [/end thread]

Ok, I couldn't help myself.  The 5 who voted for DeVito should be banned as they clearly do not fit the tagline of the site.

The problem with TE's is the "match-up nightmare" going into the draft, never lives up that at the next level.  Gronk was a 2nd round pick, Kittle a 5th, Kelce a 3rd.

Is this a serious question?  I don't want to vote, because when I see the results, if anyone voted for DeVito, it means this site is NOT "The Home of the Most Informed Giants Fans."

Just don't $h!t the bed tonight.

What they DON'T need?  About 75% of their current roster and Mara as an owner.

I can't believe none of the NFC East teams wanted Wink.   

ok.

ok.

Quote from: MightyGiants on January 30, 2024, 09:00:18 AMThe Giants parted ways with 2 out of 3 coordinators (could very well be 3 out of 3) as well as three position coaches.  Is there a reason to believe they will be getting the right people for the positions?

yeah, so?  Do you not recall how bad this team was this year?

Quote from: UncannyGfan on January 16, 2024, 03:02:38 PMI think the right decision is to recognize Daboll is a toxic employee and should be let go even if there consequences for firing another HC after only two years.

There are a lot of factors that influence the probability of winning a game so it's hard to point to specific outcomes in short period of time. 

You can't turn an organization around if existing staff are toxic or poor performers.  It demotivates/keeps away high performers and brings down moderate performers.  The highest rungs of an organization must set standard of professional respect in addition to performance.

How could anyone respect an assistant coach who comes to NYG after researching Daboll's reputation?  Paychecks are a short term motivator.  Purpose is what truly drives motivation.  If an organization holds onto a toxic leader, the talent that is motivated by winning and respect is going to stay far away.  I don't think the Giants can sustain a turnaround as long as Daboll is there.

Coughlin was transparent in his rules and consequences of breaking those rules and applied them uniformly.  The necessity of which rules were really needed was open for debate during his time as HC.  Daboll is acting capriciously.

He is the head coach of an NFL team.  Not an assistant manager at Shop Rite who berates and bullies 16 and 17 year olds.
