what a shocker
LFG finally they got his trash ass out of Tampa
I like to think maybe the season goes a bit differently if not for the blocked punt in the Eagles game.
About 16 weeks too late but I’ll take it damn it.
I give Grizzard a lot more grace than this dude. Griz was dealt a tough hand early with all the injuries and made it work for a little while. This dude was horrible, it’s honestly reprehensible that they didn’t move on in-season.
Who knew coaching special teams could be so hard?
this dude should’ve never been hired. his time with the Giants was awful. the fact he was ever brought over to begin with is a big reason i don’t trust the teams senior leadership
2 of the 3 cannons have been loaded and shot..
This is the best move so far. He was very, very ass.
God I hope they hire a DC
Thank fuck! Should have been fired week 4
Hallelujah!
makes me extremely uncomfortable that we’ve done offense and ST but no defensive staff.
Hey, that sucks, I was hoping to be able to lineup on kick coverage and just have the kicker kick it through the end on every time and make $250,000 getting in a light jog every Sunday
Life is good. Life is great
OC gone, ST coach gone….now do the DC next
The real question is who is doing the firing? If not Bowles then Bowles is not the actual head coach. If the HC is not in charge of his staff then what else is he not in charge of?

Thank God
Fuck yes
Should have been canned after the Eagles game tbh. Better late than never I guess
They’re firing everyone except the one guy they need to fire (Todd) lmao
should have been fired after the jets game tbf
Oh thank god
YESSSSSS THEY ACTUALLY HAD ME WORRIED THAT THEY WOUDNT DO IT
Ding dong the witch is dead
I remember all the Giants fans when we hired him. Him not being fired before today should be a fireable offense for Bowles by itself.
Well at least we’re doing something.
This was much needed!
PLEASED!!!
That’s ok, I’m sure any tears will also be blocked.
Holy shit they actually did it
AHHHHHHHHHH—
If Todd stays at least someone gets the boot for this at least.
Yes! This guy caused us many losses.
