26CornerBlitz Posted January 4, 2016 Author Posted January 4, 2016 Nahhhh, the Giants' owners are too stupid to realize if you have a franchise QB you are guaranteed Championships....I mean we have all been taught that so it must be true. It's the talented, but out of control punk WR's fault!
Blokestradamus Posted January 4, 2016 Posted January 4, 2016 Everyone knows what he achieved as a coach. Take a look at the Jay Fund Foundation and see what kind of man he is. Utmost respect for him, I hope Giants fans realise how lucky they've been over the past decade.
26CornerBlitz Posted January 4, 2016 Author Posted January 4, 2016 @AdamSchefter Coughlin decided to step down before Giants asked if he wanted to stay, per source. Coughlin will remain active, open to listening to teams.
Nanker Posted January 4, 2016 Posted January 4, 2016 He started coaching football at RIT. He brought that team out of a Club team into a league. Went on from there to have great success. He's a class act (with the exception that this year he didn't control is immature WR).

Stepping down from giants as 2-time Super Bowl champ. #NYGiants
filthymcnasty08 Posted January 4, 2016 Posted January 4, 2016 (edited) He may have had 3 or 4 rings if: 1) Plaxico didn't derail their best regular season under Coughlin by shooting himself (2008). Best team in football that year prior to the shooting. 2) They didn't kick it to DeSean in 2010....cost them a home playoff game. I would love to see him give it another go somewhere. I would put McAdoo at the top of the list. Smart of the GMen not to break continuity with the offense/Eli. Eli's too far along in his career to learn a new system and have "bad Eli" for a learning season. Sean Payton would be the only other choice imo. Edited January 4, 2016 by filthymcnasty08

26CornerBlitz Posted January 4, 2016 Author Posted January 4, 2016 @NFLCanada Tom Coughlin has stepped down as head coach of the @Giants after 12 seasons. Full statement: New York Giants
WotAGuy Posted January 4, 2016 Posted January 4, 2016 @mikegarafolo Source tells @FS1 Tom Coughlin is not retiring. If the right opportunity presents itself, he will coach again. Translation: "Cleveland - I'm not taking your calls, so don't bother."

26CornerBlitz Posted January 4, 2016 Author Posted January 4, 2016 Translation: "Cleveland - I'm not taking your calls, so don't bother." From Mara and Tisch to Haslam? No Thanks!
Bills Fan in MD Posted January 4, 2016 Posted January 4, 2016 I'd like to go on record to say that if the Bills ever have a coach who leads them to two Super Bowl rings, I will never call for that coach to be fired, nor will I support any decision that doesn't allow that coach to go out on his own terms. Just saying.
dave mcbride Posted January 4, 2016 Posted January 4, 2016 Everyone knows what he achieved as a coach. Take a look at the Jay Fund Foundation and see what kind of man he is. Utmost respect for him, I hope Giants fans realise how lucky they've been over the past decade. My daughter gets a small annual college scholarship through that foundation. I'm a big fan of him.
Dorkington Posted January 4, 2016 Posted January 4, 2016 I've never understood why his team has been so inconsistent over the years. Ditto for Eli Manning. Both look great some years, then look absolutely crappy some years.
NyQuil Posted January 4, 2016 Posted January 4, 2016 (edited) Sucks. Two time SB winning coaches don't get released too often. I'm interested to see if he retires or is still motivated to coach elsewhere. The Dolphins, with wannabe-Eli Tannehill, should definitely inquire. He was the HC for 12 seasons and in that time frame they only made the playoffs five years, and only once in the last seven, granted they did win the Super Bowl that year. Most Giants fans want Reese gone as well. Edited January 4, 2016 by NyQuil
Blokestradamus Posted January 4, 2016 Posted January 4, 2016 My daughter gets a small annual college scholarship through that foundation. I'm a big fan of him. I only came across the foundation a few days ago by accident. Really heartbreaking to discover the origins of the cause but I'm glad so much good has come out of such a tragic situation.
NyQuil Posted January 4, 2016 Posted January 4, 2016 As the resident Giants fan I do need to state that I will always have fond thoughts of Coughlin due to his two SB victories over one of the most reviled and despised teams over the past decade but the time was right for a change.
