Rico Posted October 3, 2004 Share Posted October 3, 2004 I'm not bailing on MM yet, but this team of losers really needed someone kicking their butts day-in & day-out. Coughlin was the man for the job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steven in MD Posted October 3, 2004 Share Posted October 3, 2004 I'm not bailing on MM yet,but this team of losers really needed someone kicking their butts day-in & day-out. Coughlin was the man for the job. 54316[/snapback] This is not an issue of coaching...it is a GM who has drafted poorly, made some good FA acquistions, but failed to address critical areas of this team. Drafted a RB with the first round pick....had a top 10 RB Drafted a WR with the first round pick...had Eric Moulds Drafted DE's who cannot put pressure on a QB Drafted an OL at #4, who should be a guard, but still playing RT. Totally ignored the rest of the OL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gantrules Posted October 3, 2004 Share Posted October 3, 2004 Dude, they beat the pack at home with the same team that went 4-12 or 3-13 last year. Coaching doesn't make a differnece? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BF_in_Indiana Posted October 3, 2004 Share Posted October 3, 2004 I said we should have hired Coughlin all along. The replies that the pro Coughlin people got were........"he's an ass, he is too much of a disciplinarian, blah blah blah." HE'S A WINNER!!!!! PERIOD. What do we have??? Another second rate no name coach who has us at 0-3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coughlin had a layover in Pittsburgh once, but that didn't count. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once again, none of the high profile (or perceived) coaches want to coach up here in buffalo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobblehead Posted October 4, 2004 Share Posted October 4, 2004 The problem was I think TC did not even want to coach here....As soon asthe Giants HC job opened up, it was given to Coughlin... That seemed to be the case, He wanted the Giants job since before the end of last season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BF_in_Indiana Posted October 4, 2004 Share Posted October 4, 2004 Yes but that doesn't mean you don't show interest. Of the guys that were out there with some prior coaching experience we targeted only the ones that would come cheaply (Jauron comes to mind).

Alaska Darin Posted October 4, 2004 Share Posted October 4, 2004 Coughlin isn't the savior everyone here is making him out to be. The Giants have benefitted from their early season schedule and taking advantage of their opponents injuries. They are nowhere near as good as their current record indicates. It's week 4, people.

gantrules Posted October 4, 2004 Share Posted October 4, 2004 So what? they won the games they were suppose to.....isn't that a mark of a team headed to the playoffs? I think it's going to be intriguing seeing the Cowgirls, Giants and Iggles all look good right now. The only one I think is SB worthy is the Iggles...but hey you never know.
