BlueInCanada Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 Wish he would of taken a FO job with the Giants but after the way JR threw him under the bus I'm not surprised. Everyone there better set their clocks 5 minutes ahead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BronxRik Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 Good luck to him. I'd have liked to have seen what he would have done with what McAdoo has to work with. Sure gonna miss him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tempest Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 If he can't coach why stay? Organization has plenty of figureheads and voices. If they did more for Coughlin during free agency while he was coaching, he would probably still be here coaching. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tempest Posted July 28, 2016 Share Posted July 28, 2016 He was part of "they" I think free agency is more of a Jerry Reese thing. Hard time seeing Tom Coughlin saying no year after year to talent in free agency when it didn't develop from the draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hard time seeing Tom Coughlin saying no year after year to talent in free agency when it didn't develop from the draft. My feelings were he was an offensive coach first and he relied on others to focus on the defense. In a sense, that's similar to what you're saying but a head coach needs to focus on the team. That and the damn injuries sealed his fate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nas Posted July 28, 2016 Share Posted July 28, 2016 I feel bad for whoever will be supervised by him... The dude is too old and times have passed him by... And for those saying he should have stayed or that he was thrown under the bus... no he wasn't... the team had losing records when he was a the helm.. The team let him stay 2 years too long out of goodwill... it was time to move on (2 years late) but i'm glad we finally pulled the plug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bonji Posted July 28, 2016 Share Posted July 28, 2016 What's the "NFLs football operations department?" It's like saying you joined Pepsi's cola beverage department. Very good question, I wondered the same thing: "The NFL’s operations office, currently headed by Troy Vincent, regulates the game’s officiating and rules, and helps to further communication with players and coaches concerning the game as it’s played every week."

Nas Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 I'll recheck this post when we're 2-14. a losing season is a losing season... not a whole lot of difference between 6-10 and 2-14... the man earned his pink slip... Goodbye. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By this logic everyone including the owner should of been thrown out of the organization. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
