What if the Giants wanted Daboll and he...I don't know...did something unexpected like took the Miami job instead? Would leave the Giants in a real pickle. What if the current Giants DC got the Minnesota HC job (he was interviewed). Now you have interviewed Flores as a possible fall back option. You have a list of guys you interviewed and can press on. Seems like due diligence and being prepared to me.
Yea, I kinda have to believe that the kind of coaches that would be driven off are the ones not producing. I've worked plenty of places where everyone gets along with the boss until their boss makes them work harder.
He may succeed. He may end up Freddie Kitchens 2.0. Either way at the time McD wasn't wrong to say publicly they needed more balance. They absolutely did. And may bet would be he had said it to Daboll on private a time or two as well before that.
This extends back to allegedly attempting to bribe him for tanking for Tua and his interview with Denver prior to Fangio being hired. Yes, very odd to sit on all this and grow morals only when it suits you, if true.
Well, that's an issue as well. If true, Flores had all this happen and continued to work for Ross. Collected paychecks and kept it all to himself while happily continuing to coach for the team? Seems like and odd time to grow morals now.
Hackett's 1st mistake.
Munchak is in outstanding OL coach. Nate would have been wise to adapt his system to fit that blocking scheme and retain Munchak IMO.
