Marv's Neighbor Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 I think he's headed for Jacksonville. He still has a house there and they will never hire Doug as HC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ALF Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 NFL report: Tom Coughlin could join Jaguars as VP of football operations http://www.bigcatcountry.com/2016/12/20/14033492/nfl-report-tom-coughlin-jaguars-vp-of-football-operations Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloBillsForever Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 (edited) Just to let people know that think Coughlin is some sort of hard ass but in reality it has translated into some very undisciplined teams in NY. If things don't go well early on, his style is known to create mutiny in the locker room also.

Blokestradamus Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 Not to mention RE: Lynn, we and the rest of the league have never actually seen what his offense is. No idea on philosophy (though his background suggests a ground based attack), route combinations, nothing. There's an element of being intrigued by Anthony Lynn and who he really is. I think he's been a positive this year. A few poor in-game/strategy decisions but that's part of the learning curve. The catch-22 - I want him to stay, just not as HC. I'm happy for the Bills offense to be his muse for a couple more years though. Even to the point where I'd relent on objection to Tyrod's option.

BuffaloBillsForever Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 (edited) Coughlin as head coach would be the worst position to put him in this organization. Edited December 21, 2016 by BuffaloBillsForever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DriveFor1Outta5 Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 Question for all the "too old" people. What health problems do you know he has? If not then what's the problem? People can live well past 70 these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordio Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 What is the point. Whoever they hire this organization will f*ck it up again just like they have f*cked the coaching hires up for the past 17 years. I can't believe I am saying this but we might as well just roll with Rex next year. One thing that stuck out to me about that article. It said the Pegulas have been in contact with Coughlin since this past summer. If that is true, that is pretty underhanded by the Pegulas. Nothing like selling out your head coach before the season even starts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D. L. Hot-Flamethrower Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 (edited) the Giants are much better without him. The game has passed him by Yeah 2012 was a long time ago to win a Super Bowl. Edited December 21, 2016 by horned dogs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's difficult to like it as a fan but this is one of the situations where the guys inside the building know everything and we know nothing. Only Lynn and those around him know his plans for the scheme. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark80 Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 His track record speaks for itself. My only concern with ANY new coach is that it's been shown to take 3 years to get the personnel to run the kind of team the new coach(es) want to run. That would make 2 decades and running of no payoffs.. Well, not true of Coughlin's replacement though.or Dirk Koetter for that matter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dpberr Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 I don't think a new coach needs three years to win. The Bills aren't a Chip Kelly apocalypse of odd-fitting personnel. I don't like Coughlin for head coach. Much like Ryan, I don't think his on-field strategy and approach evolved as the game evolved. Further, IMO, he is on a mission to prove the Giants wrong and show the world that his system can still win. Much like our current coach. As they say, you should never make a decision when you're angry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billykaykay Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 i would be so pissed if this happens. he's too old, i am sorry, he will be retired in a few years and we are back at square one. I want one more year for Rex to prove himself(I think 2 years is ridiculously short), if after year 3 we are no better off(which I honestly think we are right now) then we cut bait. But HELL NO to an old re-tread. 70 is the new 60. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
