I like this.I wanted to keep Coughlin as I have said to me the problem is Jerry Reese and was.Oh and real Giant fans don't twitter(tweet).:)

No , if that was the case Coughlin would still be there.

Happen once before his Dad and George Young did the same thing(in the 80's) with a LBers coach his name was Parcells.

I think I've heard of that Parcells guy. Nobody around here knew anything about that Joe Gibbs fella when he was hired, either.

With this move, plus keeping the DC, it seems like the G-Men may be able to minimize the disruption of starting over. It could be a good move.

Observing from afar, it just seemed to me that Coughlin didn't have the same energy as before.

Re: Coach Changes: Firings/Hirings
 

Eagles now want Coughlin lol nobody wants to go there

Re: Coach Changes: Firings/Hirings
 

[QUOTE=Giantone;1137532]No , if that was the case Coughlin would still be there.[/QUOTE]


It's an Eli endorsed move lets just say that. I know McAdoo was viewed as a possible replacement for Coughlin from the time he was brought in. And obviously the Eagles were interested too.

Re: Coach Changes: Firings/Hirings
 

Seems like McAdoo was kinda like a Lovie situation down in Tampa. The Eagles were apparently really high on McAdoo as their front runner. Giants wanted to his presence in the offense to continue. Think Eli probably endorsed that line of thinking.

But keeping Spags around is dumb.

Yeah, however, the guy [I]they[/I] "forced out" was Ray Perkins who went 24-34, was in his first HC job, had one winning season, and resigned to take the HC job at Alabama - his alma mater. Parcells was promoted but would have been fired after his first year if Howard Schnellenberger had accepted the Giants offer but he refused.

Slightly different than shoving a two-time Superbowl winner with a long HC resume out the door and keeping an OC in place so your franchise QB doesn't throw a hissy fit.

Not saying it wasn't time for TC to go - just saying McAdoo's hiring not exactly comparable to Parcells.

Re: Coach Changes: Firings/Hirings
 

49ers expected to choose between Chip Kelly and Mike Shanahan for their next HC, per league sources. Decision likely within next 24 hours

per schefter

Wow is all I can say....Shanny is seriously a candidate

Re: Coach Changes: Firings/Hirings
 

Why didn't the 49ers hire him last year?

Re: Coach Changes: Firings/Hirings
 

Because York is a dork and wanted to piss off Harbaugh.

Re: Coach Changes: Firings/Hirings
 

Sources: Coughlin says Eagles job not a fit

According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, the former Giants coach is withdrawing his name from consideration for the Eagles job. Coughlin had concerns about staff structure and didn't feel he had a strong candidate to be his OC if he took the job, a source told ESPN's Dan Graziano.

Slap in the face of the eagles and where is this win now job?

Chip Kelly to SF:

If he's not the GM, he may last. If he is the GM as well, he'll be gone in two years.

Re: Coach Changes: Firings/Hirings
 

First post here dudes! You seem to have a good site. I've been lurking for awhile, finally took the plunge to post!

Anyway, it's going to be strange not seeing Coughlin roam the sidelines when we play the Giants this year. Will be interesting to see how they do under McAdoo. Who's left for those darn Eagles? McDaniels? Lovie Smith?

Re: Coach Changes: Firings/Hirings
 

Welcome metal.

Re: Coach Changes: Firings/Hirings
 

Nobody wants the Eagles job it's so hilarious! For once the redskins aren't the laughing stock

Re: Coach Changes: Firings/Hirings
 

Thank you Oklahoma! Yeah, I still hold a grudge against those damn Iggles for the body bag game. Oh, and that monster game Vick had against us on MNF. So, I welcome those stupid birds to the land of laughing stocks! I hope the Giants and Cowturds follow suit!

Re: Coach Changes: Firings/Hirings
 

We'll see if Kelly can get Kap playing like he was a few years ago. I guess that means SF won't be in the QB market.

Maybe Griffin goes to SF but he doesn't want to be a running QB.

McDaniels or Peterson imo...

Re: Coach Changes: Firings/Hirings
 

I thought Mike Shanahan was going to take the SF job.
Wonder how his ego is going to take this loss.

Re: Coach Changes: Firings/Hirings
 

I hope the Eagles don't get Kyle S.

Re: Coach Changes: Firings/Hirings
 

Is it a sure thing that baby Shanny won't stay OC in Cleveland? I'm sure Hue wants to bring all his people in. I could see Mike and Kyle in Philly. I might not laugh as hard. I know Mike didn't have very much luck in Washington, but I still think he's a good coach.

Re: Coach Changes: Firings/Hirings
 

Shanny passed over yet again, not surprising.

Re: Coach Changes: Firings/Hirings
 

Welcome to the board metalskins

FYI - Baby Shanny is in Atlanta. Left Cleveland last year.

Re: Coach Changes: Firings/Hirings
 

Chip in SF? hmmm. Should be interesting. Wonder what this means for Mr. Kapernick.

I think Kaepernick just got saved by Chip Kelly:

Eagles Hire doug Pedersen.

Chip in SF? Let's see if he can differentiate stupid from smart....stupid is what got him terminated in Philly.

How funny would it be if Pederson after the Chiefs finish in the playoff announces he's staying in KC.

Oh the joys I get just thinking of it as a possibility. I hear Jim Zorn's available!

[quote=MTK;1137590]Shanny passed over yet again, not surprising.[/quote]

Did his time here ruin him as a HC? Is that why no one will hire him?
