You know what I mean. NY fans were calling for Coughlin's head halfway through last season. And in '07 as I recall.

I'm not saying we're making the playoffs. Those two "5 in a row or we don't go" runs were special. But we still look just as stupid now as Giants fans did last year.

No we dont. We dont look stupid at all. To compare them to us is wAy off base. Those fans were booing a team that had recently won a superbowl and was in a heated battle to win the division and go back to the playoffs. Were booing a team that has been (for the most part) atrocious for 20 years.

...and especially atrocious over the last three years. Wins and losses tell the real story.

Gotta see improvement anywhere. I was holding out hope because of the offense but now the first 7 games are looking like a facade.
What drives me crazy is that last year I remember thinking we were a QB away from being a damn good team. Lost alot of close games and beat the Gints twice with Rexy Becky. How the hell do we have a really good QB now and were worse? Wtf??

You're joking right? at the midway point in 2007, the Giants had gone 25-23 in Coughlin's first three seasons and had made the playoffs two years in a row. Comparing the point the Redskins are at now with them is imbecilic. Oh and the giants went on to win the Superbowl that year -- does it seem like we are just getting ready for a Superbowl run?

The answer is the pass defense. And we have a few players in thre seondary who weren't there last year. Atogwe, despite battling through injuries, played solidly last season. The safeties this year are not not up to the task.

Agreed. We have a secondary that is getting torched left and right. I do not think getting rid of M. Shanahan will solve things but it is time to look at if Haslett is right for this team. Our defense has had some definite setbacks with injuries but we were still giving up some big plays before the injury bug struck.

Haslett isn't the right DC but even IF Shanahan sacks him the defense will struggle from lack of talent. And if the new DC might be just as inept. MS doesn't have a great track record for picking top notch coordinators.

About the only thing I'd trust Shanny to pick is a rb
