Yes They Can! New York Giants Have a Shot at NFC East Crown

Tue, 8 Dec 2009 02:39:23 +0000

If you asked a Giants fan on a Black Friday that was black for reasons other than retail stores getting into the black, about their team's chances to win the NFC East, they would tell you: Fugeddaboutit!! Coming off a Thanksgiving night where the Giants played turkeys to the Broncos Pilgrims, and coming off five listless performances over the last six weeks, one would think that the G-Men could be dead team walking when the seemingly surging Dallas Cowboys came prancing on their high horses into chilly Giants Stadium, Sunday evening. Fugeddaboutit, Dallas! The Giants not only beat the Cowboys 31-24, they overmatched the Boys in the big play department, they firmly planted themselves right in the middle of the NFC East race; a race that looked unlikely to involve the Giants just hours before kickoff. The Giants, 7-5, seemingly have control of their own destiny. With two divisional games left to play (home vs. Philadelphia, @ Washington), followed by a terrible Carolina team, and a Vikings ...

A Present Under Tom Coughlin's Coaching Tree: New Coordinator

Fri, 4 Dec 2009 19:31:05 +0000

So you want a new coordinator do ya....well, lets look at the fun and bizarre world of Tom Coughlin's coaching tree. I am the first in line to scream, "Please Tom get rid of these bums!" But then I pause and think...who would Tom hire? All coaches at one time or another circle back to that old familiar group call the boys club. You know these guys...these are the guys that have been riding Tom's coat tails for the last 25 years. These are the same guys that Tom has given a job to time & time again, even though they have failed. We call this the "Coaching Tree"! Some guys have gone on to super start'em...but most of these guys just have become misfits and under achievers. Most of these I wouldn't touch if they were giving away free seat licenses and some I can only dream would want to come back! (hint) Begin Slideshow
