Naww man when the owners and everyone in the front office are saying that Coughlin is responsible for Fewell's fate this offseason and he didnt fire him day one, it was obviously because Coughlin has all the control he wanted to keep Fewell. Now that he was fired it's obvious that it was because the owners made him do it, despite everything they have said.

They also got rid of the secondary coach. Guess what position Spags has been coaching in Baltimore? The secondary, plus he's been the assistant HC. I don't want a Giants Spags reunion because he was a one trick pony but it's looking like it might happen.

Blah blah blah something about Tom Coughlin having to be forced to fire Fewell blah blah blah Coughlin is a lame duck. Sounds about right for a post in here?

Why do you hate America and Freedom so much?

"Calm the fuck down, or you are going to the bench" Future Raiders/Redskins/Cleveland pick.

Not that I'm big into college football since it's just pee-wee with more money but I thought I read Winston is going to focus on baseball and not football?

Frankly put you cant really read anything leading into the draft. Experts, internet "experts", draft pundits, I don't know how many "sure fire" players are gone in under three years and how many undrafted players become the next big thing. I just say who cares until your team picks the player then do as much research on the kid as you can.

"Huuur durrr lame duck season" Oh whatever else someone will post about Coughlin.

Yes Nas, a coach who is obviously more concerned about his own image has been leading the Giant's the last 10 seasons. This place is just getting stranger by the day.

Teams have been using GPS systems to monitor players speed and total distance run in practice and such. Supposedly the league is going to make them mandatory soon and teams will have to maintain that players are practicing below a certain speed, i.e. no full on speed contact.

Because the same 10 people who visit this board have obviously stayed for the football discussion lol

And some people wonder why so many people have left.

Pete Carrol relies on Quinn and Bevell to run the offense and defense, and without that defense that Quinn runs the Seahawks are nothing. Belicheck was FORCED to give up the play calling duties on defense years ago, and relies on Brady and McDaniels to make the team work offensively. The list can go on for most HC in the league who rely on their coordinators; Tomlin, Rivera, Fox. Sure you have guys like Andy Reid or McCarthy who are basically the team OC and HC, but that's usually an exception for coaches.

But you said that the Giant's arnt even close to being in the playoffs, they're not one player or one coaching change away. So if this is a case, would a new HC make a difference? How many season would a new HC be allowed to not make the playoffs? One? Two? Before you would want him replaced?

But arnt you the same guy who has been saying we are seasons away from being a contending team? I don't understand this line of thinking, "We are seasons away from being competitive, but he better get us to the playoffs"

GMB and Sportswrath users everywhere proceed to the nearest four lane highway. http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000451342/article/tom-coughlin-will-return-to-new-york-giants-in-2015 I'm glad he's back for one more season, sure up the offense and defense, then think about who is going to replace the guy.

Growing pains obviously, for himself and the players. The emergence of Beckham really saved his ass, and if Cruz can come back and be an effective slot than he will just have more weapons to play with. He now has a full season of game planning and calling plays under his belt, hope he continues to improve as I'm sure there are still some more growing pains ahead. Now the Giants just need to find a McAdoo for the defense.

He's probably the best DE in football. But yeah the talking heads have him pegged already to be the next LT, like you said.

I'm still failing to see your point, other than if the Texans defense gave up 200 yards against the Giants, therefore JJ Watt is a bad DE?

The Giant's were 30th in run defense. Didn't the Giants also give up a record setting number of rush yards to the Cowboys or something this year too?

And a coodrinator that wouldn't call RB swing passes with two minutes to go.

http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000450865/article/jim-harbaugh-49ers-parting-ways "Jim and I have come to the conclusion that it is in our mutual best interest to move in different directions," owner Jed York said in a statement. "We thank Jim for bringing a tremendous competitive nature and a great passion for the game to the 49ers. He and his staff restored a winning culture that has been the standard for our franchise throughout its history."

Moss was a tall WR with greyhound speed, it wasn't really seen before a guy with his size being able to outrun the fastest of corner backs in the game, as well as just having the clear height advantage. He was able to out run anyone on the field on deep passes and if a defender was stride for stride with him, he would simply out jump them to the ball or be able to use his height to get the defender out of position for the ball. Beckham doesnt have that size but he makes up for it with his freak athletic ability and the fact that his hands sweat stickum. He's able to not only contort his body to catch a pass but his ability to anticipate the jump on the ball to get the highest point before a defender is unreal and not often seen in any WR let alone a rookie. He's not the fastest guy on the field but he's able to reach his top speed in a couple strides and is able to cut and accelerate on a dime. His route running along with being able to outplay defenders gives him the advantage on short and medium routes, and his physical ability and instincts give him an advantage on the deep ball. Moss was something special, but guys like Calvin Johnson are along the same prototype, tall, fast, a solid set of hands and able to use their height to out jump defenders which makes them a top WR in the league. Beckham though, I've never seen a WR like Beckham before.

So would I. But I'd also rather have a starting caliber O-line, a starting safety, and a starting LB across from Kennard than a starting DE. If JPP thinks he's going to get an all star J.J. Watt contract against using that type of money to sign starters elsewhere on the team, he's mistaken. Besides he sounds like he wants to get paid and I'm sure Watt's contract is going to be in his agents negotiations, so I say let him talk with teams like the Raiders or whoever will give him that contract.

Some team will over pay for him. I hear the Raiders have a hard on for the guy ever since signing Tuck and the leadership he brought to the team. I expect them giving him some stupid contract, six years, 60 million +
