Allow me to help.  Actually, the Giants don't have the word "Giants" on their helmet.  They have a lower case "ny", which is appropriate since you wrote, "new york."

A bandwagon is a metaphor that means you are a late arriving fan of the team, now that the team is successful. It also implies that the first losing season will feature your departure from the board.  There is no real wagon and there is no band on the wagon, if that caused the confusion.  

I am here for you, gents.

Said it in the other thread. Most of us didn't expect him to come in and fire everybody immediately (granted, a few did).

The question will be how he feels after he's had time to work with them directly and see how they perform during the season.

The steeler way is to give staff a long time to deserve to be fired over multiple seasons. Expect Rivera, Hurney and co to be here for a while.

Wrong.  They have enough history for one to know what they bring to the table.  One will get to stay because he can't realistically be replaced until after the season.  One can be shown the door immediately without missing a beat.  I let you decide which is which.

I mean at this point it was obvious he was going to be here at least to the end of the season right? Why would there be a change this late in the game? Unless you want Tepper pulling old JR moves. Plus at least on paper its been a good off season and I like the direction we seem to be taking with the draft.

Of the 3 ownership changes this past decade 2 kept their GM a year or 2 before making a change. I believe all 3 coincided with a coaching change but they may have been unrelated coinincidences. I believe it was the Browns where Haslam almost immediately shook thinks up. The Bills and Jags kept current GM a season or two.

If the Steeler way is Hurney love this will be interesting.

We must remember how historically bad the Bills, Jags and Browns were. Short GM tenures would go hand in hand with those terrible records. Hurney won a lot last year. He should keep the job for a while and he will.

You can't really credit Hurney for last year though.

The draft, free agency, and pretty much everything else up to training camp we're done by somebody else.

Marty was really only responsible for one major transaction in mid-season that had questionable effect, and he didn't even initiate that. Brandon Beane did.

Hurney is safe, so if you think they'd fire Rivera and Promote from within for the HC spot. 

 

but both are safe. dont expect either one to be fired unless this coming season is 2-14 and then Hurney will be looking for a new coach.

    • The OL has certainly been better than the trainwreck it was three or four years ago. As far as competitiveness let's apply some realism and clarity here. Quite a bit of the competitiveness in 2025 came from the defensive side of the ball which gave up the most points in league history the year before and was one of the bottom 5 units in terms of salary cap allocation for 2025 while the OL was top 3. We had the 26th passing offense last year. And if not for a herculean couple of games from Rico Dowdle we don't back our way into the division title or make the playoffs because we went 4-6 in our final ten games including being swept by the Saints who were starting a rookie 2nd round pick most of us mercilessly mocked when they selected him. In conclusion yes we've seen a difference. The question now is will the investment pay off the way we want. But the only way that happens is if we field a top 15 offense. If we can't even crack the top 20 then there need to be some very warm seats across the board. And I would hope just about anyone here should agree with that.
    • These Spurs are lowkey loaded.  If healthy, they could win it all this year (#2 in the West right now). I still think we’ve gotta keep Kalk on Wemby; he’s not getting completely dominated like every other NBA center.
    • Am I the only one who doesn't understand this fan bases infatuation with adding a high end TE? Especially when we have some bigger bodies in T-Mac and Coker who can slide into the slot at times and provide the big dependable target over the middle that most teams use their TE for. I mean, sure, it would be nice to have one of those elite TE's, but I feel like that's a position your better off going cheap with a committee who each bring something different to the table while spending our cap room on the more important positions. I like the potential we saw from Evans this year, Sanders could be a best if he can stay healthy, and Tremble has improved as well.  Just feels like spending high draft picks or cap space on other needs and more important positions is a better use of our resources than splashing on a TE in the draft or FA. Are those guys on the level of the Bowers or McBride's of the world?  Of course not, but we also are paying a fraction of the cost on our TE room than they are, and we're able to use that money for other needs.
