NJDevs4978 Posted December 28, 2017 Share Posted December 28, 2017 (edited) This week is such a snoozer NBC opted out of the Sunday night game Giants just hired Gettleman as their GM in the worst-kept secret in the NFL.

MadDog2020 Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 Good hire by the Giants. I never understood why Carolina fired Gettleman.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muevelos Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 Didn't Gettleman walk away from the Giants? Lol, seems like a meh hire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJDevs4978 Posted December 29, 2017 Author Share Posted December 29, 2017 (edited) Walked away to take a promotion to a GM job in Carolina? That's not walking away. He built talented, good teams in Carolina, his main issue was he had toxic contract relationships with his main players and the owner sided with the players.

Muevelos Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 Eh Giants needed a culture change, didn't do that they went with the same old. They hired someone who can be a puppet for the owners. I believe it shows a lack of confidence for the ownership. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muevelos Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 Vance is keeping his job in DEN. Don't think he's great but i understand wanting to avoid the one year coaching carosel. Del Rio just wasn't gonna be that guy for OAK, neither was Caldwell Sooner or later MM in GB needs to be out, he's a bad coach. Alot of loyalty there but it's been very clear it's Rodgers who does everything MM can't adapt to a single thing nor is he a leader. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that owners well guarded skeletons have since fallen out of the closet. Gettleman is a good football guy but I don't see him as a great savior for the Giants. Plus he's about to turn 67 so you wonder how much he has left in the tank. Turning around the Giants is going to be tougher than expected and I feel that Philly is on the cusp of embarking on a string of dominant seasons and Dallas is going to be quite good for the foreseeable future as well. NYG may be mired in the 5-11/6-10 type quagmire for a few years Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NYG may be mired in the 5-11/6-10 type quagmire for a few years Giants talking to both McDaniels and Patricia apparently. If I'm them, I'd go McDaniels...get the feeling he learned from his prior mistakes with Denver and will have a much better chance to succeed as a HC this time around. Patricia will get one shot as a HC and fail. As much as I rip him, I know he's done some good things with the Pats...the one thing I'll say about his Ds is, despite often giving up big chunks of yards and never seeming to get much pressure on the QB, they don't give up a ton of points...but like I've also said, having the best QB of this era makes some people look better than they are...he's one of those guys who should really just stay where he is while the two parties most responsible for the team's success are still there.

I was really hoping Vance would get the ax in Denver and would have been cutting losses so to speak for what was a bad and underqualified hire in the first place. He is good at playing to the teams weaknesses. Kubiak went 9-7 the year before with more or less the same team and the same QBs less Brock.

It feels like a game where the Bills should get smoked (just look at the point differentials of both teams), but so much depends on Bortles...Tyrod is pretty good at not turning the ball over, but I don't see the Bills scoring more than 20 points without some serious help. Bortles has thrown 5 picks in the last two games, and the Bills have 18 INT as a team. That's a little scary for the Jags. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like Patricia is waiting for BB to retire and then he'll be the guy to take over. That's just me. Every year he's a leading canidate but always stays. Also don't Believe Schwartz should leave Philly. Not a good track record as HC. He can build something good in Philly. He's better suited as DC kinda like Wade Philips. And still, he isn't this great DC. Lot of players on that team can do more then they are. He's replaceable to THEM but he needs to be smart. And I also wonder about there Qb Coach. Did Wentz make him look alot better? If not, then Chicago with Trubs makes sense. Edited January 2, 2018 by CarterforPresident Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did ANYONE ever think there would be an NFL playoff game where the two teams involved were QB'd by Tyrod Taylor and Blake Bortles? I mean, this could be a sign of the apocalypse lol.

Not to mention one of them is guaranteed to move on...and if it's the Jags, they could take down Pittsburgh AGAIN and possibly even host the AFC Championship game...KC's already won up in NE this season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And really, I can hang around any successful organization that has a bunch of strong personalities at the top and make it sound like things are in disarray.
