ESPN: Source: Tom Coughlin informs staff he is out as Giants coach

[MRV52]

Any Sean Payton sightings in NY?

 

[Seven]

FIFY

Nailed it...............thank you.

 

[elcowboi]

I'm glad he's gone but he was a pretty good coach imo.

 

[Oh_Canada]

Giants fans have been calling for his head for a couple seasons now. And this guy helped them win 2 Super Bowls..

Those people are idiots, guy had very little talent to work with.

 

[phildadon86]

Glad he is gone, HoF HC IMO and by all accounts a class act.
Bring him to Dallas Jerry, you can do it

They´ll probably get Sean Payton, SMH.

I think Payton is going to SF

 

[StylisticS]

Hear Rumors this morning that SF will look Payton

Coughlin...

Got Jacksonville up and going quickly without a process. Got the Giants 2 SBs. Could actually out gameplan other coaches in big games over the years. Slipped recently but still deserves kudos

I think Payton would definitely choose NY over SF.

 

[RS12]

I have a lot of respect for Coughlin. Two rings in the modern NFL is quite an accomplishment IMO.

Tom Coughlin has informed his staff that he is out as the New York Giantscoach, a source told ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter.

The Giants are expected to make a formal announcement regarding Coughlin later Monday.

Coughlin met with Giants ownership Monday, one day after New York completed its third consecutive losing season. Coughlin coached the Giants for 12 seasons, leading them to two Super Bowl championships.

Heck of a coach. Wish we had him here in Dallas.

 

[DenCWBY]

He's a very good coach, much like Andy Reid I'm glad he won't be in the division.

This.

Has Payton been fired or resigned?

 

[mrmojo]

Very good coach did wonders at Jacksonville and with the Giants with 2 different styles of coaching personality wise. Was willing to change and it led to more success, not many coaches egos would allow them to do that.

 

[jordan4vols]

If you want to get a good coach the time to act is now Jerry. Giants/Eagles about to probably lock up some good names while we are stuck with Mr cant win a game without Romo

Just my frustration speaking. I know no changes will be made.

 

[YosemiteSam]

Maybe Mara will ask Jerry for permission to talk to Red.

Maybe Mara will ask Jerry to be their GM.

 

[Alexander]

Those people are idiots, guy had very little talent to work with.

I don't know what mind tricks Jerry Reese is using on the Maras to keep his job, but I hope it continues. The defensive talent on that team has been awful for a while.

Saints want a second round pick for him.

 

[DenCWBY]

I think Payton would definitely choose NY over SF.

And I think Payton would take NY or SF over Dallas if he has the opportunity.
Although if there was a coach who could handle Jerry's antics, it would be Payton by taking a page out of the book of Jimmy until Jerry fired him.
Poor Jerry. Has all the $$ in the world to buy anything in the world but can't buy a championship (with his name only atop of the trophy). He's either going to have to hire a real GM/Coach to run the team as a competitor or die trying to do it his own way.
Sad.

Since when can you trade a coach? It seems so strange to me. I remember the Browns tried to trade for Jim Harbaugh a couple years back. It's just weird

 

[TheCoolFan]

He should go to Miami, where he can continue to own Belichick for 2 games a season with the Dolphins.

 

[PA Cowboy Fan]

Which should tell you, it doesn't matter what a HC does, they will always be the scapegoat.

If Garrett is ever fired, whoever we hire, fans will be calling for his head in 2 years max.

Well fans turned on Tom Landry...so yea.

I think fans would be willing to give a coach a chance if they actually saw some improvement.
