Yes, and while Parcells was first time HC with a legend for his DC. He also had George Young as GM. Coughlin had 8 years exp as HC.

 

Daboll is a rookie HC with a rookie GM, both taking over a franchise that hasn't had a winning season for 5 years. 3-13, 5-11, 4-12, 6-10, 4-13. Bottom of the division for awhile now.

Currently 31st ranked offense in 2021. Defense 20th or so. 

 

Tell me about how the last two NY Giants head coaches did, Joe Judge, Pat Shurmur...

Was Belichick a legend in the 80's? 

 

Can we discuss every head coach in Buffalo except for Saban, Knox, Levy and McDermott... over 61 seasons? 

 

Is your argument that it's easier to succeed in Buffalo than in NY?

The Giants atmosphere that has 4 SB titles and has been a relatively successful team over ghe last 40 years?

The Giants atmosphere where the owners have resisted changing with the times and micromanaged woth a fan base that will not give him any margin for error.  Parcells and Coughlin left a long time ago.

As an organization yes..but Golladay, Toney, Shephard, Slayton, Engram, Rudolph, Barkley...he's got some weapons.

 

And two top 10 picks. They are also in a terrible division.

 

QB is obviously a major question mark, but there are worse situations to go too.

They need a rebuild, they are in terrible cap situation for a lousy team.

If Dorsey leaves with Daboll, I'm gonna be worried. Stability matters. Especially for young men. What if guys don't click with the next OC. What if Daboll was laid back and the next guy comes in like a drill sergeant. 

I'd rather keep what these players are familiar with. 

 

I get your point, but I really don't think McDermott and Beane are going to hire that guy.

McClappy is too positive to let that kind of bad juju in his locker room.

Trubisky?  He's done more and has better stats than a bunch of guys who are starting or lined up to start.

I'm not saying he's a top 10 or a top 15 QB based on last year's performance, but I think he can make a strong case to be better than 8-10 guys who started last season.

True but that isn't saying much is it?

The last two Jiants coaches greatly to do with why they have not had a winning season for 5 years.

They also went to a SB in between those times.

 

The Giants are one of the flagship franchises in the NFL.

Daboll is not the same person he was when he joined the Bills.   When he joined the Bills he was screaming at Josh Allen a lot and finally figured out he would do a better job from the booth and things changed.  He became a close friend to Josh and a mentor.  He learned a lot from Coach McD and Fraizer as well.  

 

I agree with this, but there's an interesting point here.  I think Daboll was "led" to the conclusion he'd be better in the booth by McDermott.  Daboll has said something to the effect that you get too invested in the play that just ran and it's easier to put it aside and move on to the next from the booth.

 

So....is he ready to stand on the sidelines?  Are there any HC who work from the booth on gameday?

Disappointed.  

 

I wanted him to go to Miami so Frazier would leave and go to the Giants.  Now I don't think he is in the running for any other jobs.  I don't want Frazier back personally, and its not just because of the Chiefs game, I just think I am ready to see what a new DC does with the pieces we have here.

Have you watched them since they won the Super Bowl last? They have been the worst team in their conference for the last 5 years

 

Um, yeah. And you think tbey are going to be caught in this funk forever?

 

Newsflash: Team can improve after regime changes. Remember 5 years ago?

Pederson is not a good fit. He runs the West Coast offense which would be a huge change for Josh.

 

Incidentally that's the offense that Andy Reid and Mahommes run. 

 

You need someone fluent in the Erhardt-Perkins offense offense which is what Daboll and Josh run.

 

Daboll learned everything he knows about Erhardt-Perkins from his time at Alabama and being under Nick Saban.

 

That's what Alabama runs to this day so the only logical choice is Bill OBrien the current OC at Alabama. 

 

OBrien (former HC for the texans) could come here and run the same offense and run it better than Daboll without missing a beat.
