John Harbaugh was asked how the Giants can keep pace with NFC East

Hmmm, tonally his changed. I wonder if he is blinded by the bright lights in the Big City, he had a little bit of that last year in Baltimore, but the "my S don't stink" type of talk is what really got him canned in B-More and will get him canned in NY. MY is more of what have you done for me lately city and they do not care what he did in B-More.

They can keep pace by preying to the football God's that we have injuries like they have had

This is correct that's the ultimate equalizer and that's what's happened with the Cowboys,

I know we pick out a whole lot of things Matt Eberpoos was horrible last year and Zimmer wasn't so good the year before but when you really look at it injuries were the main cause, and then missing on a few free agents, some draft picks that didn't workout, and boom you're at 7 wins, that that's just how it works..

So I'm not sure I haven't listened to the video yet It's that simple try to play your best and you just hope that other teams don't.. Like to keep it simple..

But yes staying as healthy as possible and a little luck thrown in That is the difference and a lot of these really close divisions..
 
He will have them playing good ball. I don't think they'll be the pushover they have been, but they definitely still have some major question marks.....like at QB.

Will be an interesting season in the NFC East.

Say that every year it was supposed to be Washington and most of us sat here and looked at Washington going to the NFC championship game and Dan Quinn's first year and said Nah that was a mirage everyone keeps saying how the Giants in the Washington are going to be up next and they're going to overtake the Eagles and the Cowboys and it's not happened yet...

Look the Ravens moved on from this guy just like Tomlin was no longer with the Steelers these are great coaches.. The boys moved on from Mike Mccarthy but now everyone in Pittsburgh seems to be really giddy over Mike Mccarthy all these moves he's done right it just seems different he's better than Tomlin blah blah blah yeah it always looks good on paper when you things that other people are thinking get something new something fresh but that doesn't mean anything..

You still have to play the games...

I realize he has a nice big fat name His brother over there they got ran off from the NFL back to Michigan back to the NFL yes they have nice names, but you have to play the games, and you have to hope that your players have your back..im not worried...
 
A battle in the NFc East means good for all teams , that means we can win easily against the not so elite teams in the league.
 
Reporter: "So Coach Harbaugh, how do you think you will keep pace with the Dallas Cowboys?"

Harbaugh: "They're still ran by Jerry Jones, the same guy who is the puppet master for their 2nd year rookie head coach and who pulls all the strings and decides who plays and who doesn't, right? We'll be fine".

It is sad Take a look below Not world beaters,

So what does that make Washington and then New York all the way at the bottom if we're judging last year instead of moving forward to JohnH new Giants Vs the Cowbopys new team, then I don't know what to tell you, No one knows what's going to happen this year... To make sure calling out our seven games wasn't a flex for you because all I see is the same two teams at the bottom of this division as always and until further notice that's where they are they're starting last they're in the worst lane and then we'll find out... Yes we'll find out quick game one Of course The league put us on the road against them game one that's no coincidence..

BTW Don't act like he's not losing sleep looking over at that offense those seven wins were because of our bad defense which is been rebuilt so again let's stay in upcoming season because if not I'm betting if the Cowboys really tried hard they could have beat the Giants in the last game and then everyone here would have been angry but we could have been an 8 win team technically not a losing season with the tie in there LOL

I’m not saying Harbaugh guarantees a contender. I’m saying coaches with his track record tend to stabilize franchises and raise their floor. The Giants and Washington have been inconsistent, but expecting them to stay permanently at the bottom ignores how NFL cycles work. Whether they actually break through depends on QB play and roster building, not just perception.

anyone that thinks injuries is why we stank on D is a football fool
 
I dunno. I don’t think he is so great. He had nearly the best and most consistent FO in the league for about ever.

He isn’t coming in with some elaborate schemes that the league can’t figure out. Sure, he is well respected and will have instant and unquestioned command of the locker room, but in the end he will only be as good as the players they can put on the field.

I mean, he is no Shoddy if that’s what anyone is asking. Plus Shoddy has Caleb. Harbaugh does not.

Yeah there might be some truth to that but I'm saying let's just tap the brakes we don't know how he's gonna work here with this GM and this roster he's not the GM and the GM here has made some big mistakes letting go of Barkeley giving up on Daniel Jones too soon.

But the way I see it they needed to get a Super Bowl over there with Lamar Jackson Mr Double MVP they could never get him a receiver they never got him the actual weapons they could have used and they did not get the defense right at the right time you know the same things they say here with the Dallas Cowboys like say the three years Mike Mccarthy did really well what they needed to do more they were right there on the precipice of winning and our GM didn't do enough So if you want to put this on the coach he didn't do enough with the Ravens if you can't win a Super Bowl with Lamar Jackson and Derek Henry and then you wanna blame your kicker it never should have been that close..

Yes there's more ways to look at this and sometimes it's a mirage on what these coaches can do it depends on their assistant coaches because it looks like sometimes like look at the the Eagles per se they they go through this problems where they can't get the right coordinators and you can see it It affects them the head coach doesn't really seem to matter as much as the position coaches..

When you're a walk around guy you have to depend on your coordinators and then your roster Mostly built by who your GM they don't have a good track record over there in New York with the GM and now with their injuries from guys coming back it's a new system..


Forget what you're saying I like to look at it the other way though, Mike Mcdonald was making Harbaugh look better.. Get over there and build the team quicker and got them to a Super Bowl with Sam Darnold Didn't even have a single pass rusher with double digit sacks and yet their defense looked like the Great Wall of China..

Guess where Mike Mcdonald used to coach and what happened when he left the Ravens Things just didn't seem the same did they? Had other coordinators like that..

what was the record of the Pats the year before they got to the SB?

just more stupidity from those who never take the rose colored glasses off
 
Harbaugh is over rated. He had some great GM's in Baltimore to give him some very good to great players.
Lamar Jackson was over rated as well.

Not saying he will suck in NY. He will eventually make them competitive. But how long will it take. And how good will they truly be.
