With all the talk about the next coach who is Gettleman's "guy?"

[Happy Panther]

GM's put up with the incumbent and wait for them to fail so they can bring in someone they can groom or they like.

 

So who is it? Coughlin is not an acceptable answer.

[Mr. Scot]

If you look at his history, probably Gary Kubiak or Kyle Shanahan.

[UNCrules2187]

I wouldn't mind Kyle Shanahan. He's done good work with Cleveland's offense, did good work with RG3, and who knows, maybe he'll do some good work with Manziel this last month of the season.

/frantically searches for connection between him and Gus Malzahn

I am going scientific with this poo. Based on the Theory of Coaching Short Elasticity and Newton's Law of Gravitational Pull on the Waistband, I deduce that:

Dave will hire this guy:

Or he will hire Parcels:

[Mr. Scot]

Here's the breakdown I did before:

Factor in the timing. Right now, Gary Kubiak is one of the hottest names out there in the head coaching prospect search.

Put that together with Gettleman's prior acquaintance with him and it's easy enough to conclude he could be the guy.

The same could be said of Kyle Shanahan, but Kubiak is getting more buzz and has the experience advantage.

[Peppers90 NC]

probably some udfa or d2 guy

Dear Mr. Gettleman,

GET ON THE GUS BUS

^^^^^

Needs to be hanging in the endzone at the next home game.

Whenever you post, it's gonna be a classic. You keep us from getting depressed. A truck full of pie for you!

[Lemory]

I'd take Kubiak.

[Mr. Scot]

Fun Fact: Dave Gettleman and Bill Parcells never actually worked together.

They're acquainted via mutual friend Ernie Accorsi but were never actually with the Giants at the same time. Parcells had already been gone from the Giants for eight years before Gettleman was hired.

People make a connection because both were with the Giants, but there really isn't one (at least not a direct one).

I wouldn't mind Kyle Shanahan. He's done good work with Cleveland's offense, did good work with RG3, and who knows, maybe he'll do some good work with Manziel this last month of the season.

What's amazing is, everyone leaves out his best job: OC of the Texans.

[Mr. Scot]

I'm guessing another run-run-pass guy. You know, the old school way. If the Jets didn't teach those morons a lesson last night, don't know what will.

Guessing you haven't read Bill Voth's latest.

(you'll probably pop a blood vessel if you do)

At this point I would take anyone over the cardboard cutout standing on the sidelines now. I had so much hope for Ron, until he promoted Shula. The final indicator for me was the lack of in game adjustments. Last season was the perfect storm for this team. We caught all the breaks and Shula ball worked because we scored on those long time consuming drives and the defense held the leads. There wasn't a need to adjust the scheme because it work finally as we went on a run. The 49ers figured it out in the playoffs and you see the results. Shula ball only works when we score first and the defense can hold the lead.
