Have the Giants quit on Tom Coughlin?

The last 2 games the Gaints have been blown out by a combined score of 85-16.

After the 2006 season's poor performance and player discontent the Giant organization hesitantly brought Coughlin back for another try. That year the Giant Wild Card team got hot and swept there way to an improbable Super Bowl win over the heavily favored Patriots.

Since then it's been a one and done in the playoffs (as they have their other 2 earlier playoff appearances under Coughlin) followed by this season's major disappointment.

Are the Giants ready for a head coaching change?

And who might be a perfect fit?

I think after we beat them and knocked them out of the playoffs, they lost their fire. Unlike the Panthers, we have been out of the playoff picture for weeks, so we were playing for pride. They didn't have time to get over it and move on. I guess we will see how they handle that disappointment next year. I'm pretty sure Coughlin bought a few years of goodwill win the SB appearance/win, but being in NY that won't last as long as it does in Carolina.

Pat Yas alludes to this in his latest blog post. A very good read...

Remember, Fox was defensive coordinator in New York before he took the Carolina job. He's a darling of the New York fans, media and ownership. Sure, Richardson is very close with Giants ownership and this could be a delicate situation. But Richardson's created the situation, and there's no doubt he gave extensive thought to every scenario and is prepared for every possibility.

This is a good read. They also said this on Sportscenter. Also, that the Bills would 'love' to have him. I think if they are looking at Cowher already, they could easily get Fox for a cheaper price. If they offer a long-term deal to him, he's gone.

      I used to think Juan was a Zod alt. Agree he's a great poster.

      2026 Charlotte Hornets

      By frankw · Posted

      Hawks said nah we good and sent him to the shadow realm aka the Wizards. Cold blooded. I mean they're 2-2 in a series with a young up and coming Knicks team largely through 34 year old CJ McCollum. Even if they ultimately lose the series at least they are there and have something to build on. I think Hornets fans are just beaten down and lack the objectivity to assess the situation. They think we are going to get so much worse if and when we finally change gears. Worse how? We've already been a lottery team for years now. We've already been looking to win our first playoff series in about a quarter century. We already can't get past the play in and in failing to do so we have completely embarrassed ourselves twice looking like we don't even belong. Honestly there is absolutely no excuse for a team like the Magic to be more competitive and successful than us in the playoffs. Absolutely disgusting. But that's just me. I was fuging lit when we got the Hornets back in Charlotte but that is old old news. It's time for these boys to get into a playoff series. Enough is enough. If they can't do it for 2026-27 then they need to make wholesale changes regardless.

      That's it. How do you feel about this draft class.

      By outlaw4 · Posted

      Not one single pick that is asking me why we drafted a guy in the first place. It was a guy we needed and/or a guy that had certain traits making them stand out. Best of all, I feel everyone we drafted are capable of stepping onto the field this year and have a meaningful role (even Kuwatch on special teams). Obviously, nothing is guaranteed but I'm not seeing any huge flags on guys because they're risky projects or massive overreaches.
