Confirmed: Giants will NOT pursue Steve Wilks


Mr. Scot

Recommended Posts

Ignoring the off topic matters in here, this should be expected.  

Wilks was an easy correlation for people to make but DG never hired the staff he had and it's clear they want to build a legit contender with a relatively quick turnaround.  

If the rumors about Bill O'Brien and Texans ownership are true, I think that's my best guess for the next Giants coach.

How fitting will it be when we win the SB with Rivera , Shula & Hurney in cpl of months :).

Hurney has nothing to do with it if they do. He is just here untill they sell this team and find a competent replacement.

I don’t think so , first of all nobody is going to fire a SB winning HC & GM  after end of the season.

JR will get what he wants after the ring aka increase in team value.

New owner MJ will keep majority of the core intact.

Jim Schwartz....come on down.

Schwartz and O'Brien are both heavily rumored.

This news likely also rules out Eagle coaches Frank Reich and John DeFillippo as neither of them really seems to suit what they're looking for either.

And no, it's not gonna be John Fox.

Thia is guaranteed by recent team statements (link)

Team ownership has stated that they want one of two things in a head coach:

1) Someone who's been a head coach before

2) Someone who's been a coordinator for an extended time

Wilks is neither of those things.

Mind you, this doesn't guarantee that somebody else won't go after him, but if Wilks is coaching another NFL team next year, it won't be the Giants.

fuging trash OP

just because the Giants put out a wishlist of the traits of an ideal candidate it DOES NOT mean that wilks is not even a consideration. this is like a job listing that asks for fifty years of experience and expertise that no one in the world has. it's not an actual requirement. delete this please

Good. This is Wilks first year as DC. Give him some time to grow with us, as I feel he’s got the potential to be a great defensive coordinator.

Still a very real possibility that someone else pursues him, especially with multiple openings expected and his being on the NFL's recommended interview list.

As I said, nothing to do with anything this season. He is Just a lump waiting to be replaced in 2018. MJ isn't buying this team either.

    • Just another 1st round QB that never paid off for the team that drafted them or traded for them. It's been like this since the SB began. 36 QBs have now won the SB & only 13 of them have been 1st rounders winning with their original team. Namath 1968, Griese 1972, Bradshaw 1974, McMahon 1985, Simms 1986, Aikman 1992, Elway 1997, Roethlisberger 2005, P.Manning 2006, E.Manning 2007, Rodgers 2010, Flacco 2012, & Mahomes 2019. Only 3 have taken longer than 5 seasons as the starter to win a SB.  4  6  5  4  6  4  15  2  9  4  3  5  2 [the years it takes for these 1st round QBs] 5  1  4  1  3  1  1  2  3  4  [10 of the 36 have won a chip with their 1st team that haven't been drafted in the 1st round. These are the years it took them as a starter] What stands out? Only 2 of these QBs have lost their first championship appearance. Elway took 4 years as a 1st rounder & Hurts took 2 years as a 2nd rounder. Of the 10 non-1st round QBs, 2 are 2nd rounders, 3 are 3rd rounders, 5 are 6th rounders or later. Please stop wasting time on drafting 1st round QBs with such a high failure rate. The remaining 13 QBs are traded or free agent signings. Stafford, Favre, Young, Williams and Dawson are the 5 trades. Peyton Manning & Tom Brady also won for teams as free agents on a short stay as well as being drafted. The lesson here is don't waste your franchise on farming up 1st rounders for the league, and steer clear of trading for a franchise QB. Stick to finding that championship QB by drafting them outside of the 1st round or through free agency.  
    • I lost most of the respect I had for Fox in 2010. He should have resigned if he hated the job that much. Instead he stuck for his paycheck and let stuff go to hell.    I burned out on Ron too but my deal breaker issue with him was away from football and after he was gone from the Panthers. He may have been out of his depth but never quit on us. 
    • From where they were one year ago to now, pretty incredible. I mean, say what you want about Vrabel he is no Jerrod Mayo.
