🔥🔥🔥Duggan entering into Pat territory as Schoen’s biggest hater. Great piece.Â
Joe Schoen is a convenient shield to place in front of all the assorted Mara family members in the front office. That’s all this is about.
I do wonder how much of this is Mara having cancer and taking the easy path in keeping Schoen
~~FUCK PAT LEONARD!~~ I mean FUCK Dan Duggan.
But he does have a point — that we’re afraid to make a more drastic change.
That said, you land the right HC then it doesn’t matter. Joe Schoen’s job would then return nailing his draft picks like 2025.
I don’t disagree with what was written but can’t wait for Dan to find the “we’re doomed” lining in every single decision the team makes for the entire offseason, it’s so tiring
Paywall – can someone post the article in the comment section?
Yeah but at least he understands the question
Pat Hanlon seething right now.
Sad thing is, this SHOULD be an optimistic offseason. But with Giants management up top and Schoen staying in place, there’s no reason for me to believe they’ll hire the right coach or draft the right players. We’re probably sitting here in 2 years pissed that they wasted another 2 years of Dart’s rookie contract, and that’s assuming he doesn’t regress next year.
Dan Duggan has been on the beat as long as this franchise has been in the basement now. Still delivers bangers despite one of the shittiest situations in the NFL the past decade lmaoo
Duggan was waiting for this
Yay another post for the crybabies to wet their diapers over. See you at the next coach’s press conference.
Agree. The next coach is tied to this failure of leadership. Dumb.
He should step down and move into an executive role. Bring in a new gm and coach
Schoen is becoming what Cashman is for the Yankees
Just plays the company line, has everyone else fall on a sword before him, and carry on
And before anyone jumps on me, yes, Cash is actually a genuinely good GM. I’m talking more about “Nepo” side if you will
I still think it’s possible for this team to be decent or a winning team with Schoen as GM. They just need a really good coaching staff. I hope they can put one together.
It looks like the standard is losing.
Cook ’em Duggan. All the cliche BS that comes from the Giants ownership is all bluster and no substance. The Giants Way means nothing! 15 years of standards and progress has led to one of the worst records in the NFL in that time. The only current standard for the NY Giants is being a dog shit team every year.
For fucks sake….
Can we get some new beat writers?
Duggan going in like Vontaze Burfict on a defenceless receiver!
I get the frustration, but Duggan really isn’t a reporter anymore these days. He’s basically just someone who scores points by rage baiting.
At this point we can only hope and pray Shoen brings in a great coach and the team finally starts to play better.
Good.
The NY Media needs to consistently hammer at the Nepotism up and down the Organization and don’t let up., and hold Schoen to an incredibly high standard in Year 5 of his regime.
They really don’t smh
“Anymore”?
Dan Duggan is one of the few guys on the Giants beat that are not afraid to call them out.
The Giants are a joke of organization. They have since Mara kids started jumping up the charts. 10 years of this bullshit.
We are all tired of this and Mara is being treated as a great owner. Fuck the Mara family.
My hot take is John and Steve have not been good owners since taking the reins. They coasted on the foundation of a strong team with the remnants of good decisions prior to 2005 but eventually showed they could not continually make good decisions about leadership for this team.
What were the standards before? Dave Gettleman and Joe Judge? I’m glad they don’t have standards now.
