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.

      Jalon Walker not looking like a bust? That can't be right.

      To be fair. Our GM is the assistent of the worst GM in NFL history.  We pay trillions of dollars on the Oline and cant pass protect or run.  We pay trllions of dollars on the D-dine and cant pass rush.  We cant draft. We are a bad team. With a bad owner and really bad management.

      Stud: WR Tetairoa McMillan In the midst of all the incompetence and mediocrity, there's one shining hope for the future of this franchise. Rookie wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan led the team with six catches and 100 receiving yards. He also had an extremely impressive one-handed catch wiped out becaue he couldn't quite stay in-bounds. McMillan is a bit slower, but there are flashes of some Julio Jones in his game. His route running and YAC ability are both far better than they were advertised coming out of the draft.   Or, you know, exactly what anyone who watched enough of his tape would have known.   Honestly, our Arizona board could never understand this knock on him in the pre-draft process, because we all knew it wasn't true.  And sure, we're fans who watched all his games, but you'd think the experts who supposedly watch all the snaps of these type of prospects would have been seeing it too, it was glaringly obvious to us. Seriously, how many times did I say here that he could run every route needed?  How many times did I talk about his surprisingly good run after catch ability for someone his size?  How he wasn't a burner, but he was amazingly smooth for a 6'5" WR? As I've said, only 2 players from Arizona, both football and basketball, have I ever felt they were 1 million percent can't miss stars in the pros.  T-Mac and Gronkowski, that's it.  One is the greatest TE in NFL history, the other is about to take Smitty's mantle as the Panthers WR GOAT when all is said and done.
