Blame the Players!

Marc Jimenez · December 26th, 2006, 05:56 PM

When a team doesn’t play well, more often than not, the majority of the blame will fall on the head coach -- regardless if it’s warranted or not.

After the New York Giants were badly beaten by the New Orleans Saints, 30-7, on Sunday, the local sports pundits were calling for Tom Coughlin’s...

Two years of Giants players tossing their head coach under the bus publicly, Its time for Tom Coughlin to fight fire w/fire. He needs to call them out publicly for not giving 100%. Shockey is great at running his mouth, why cant he run better routes? Barber has been running his mouth, why not run more TD's? Strahan has been rushing to judge others, but cant rush the other team consistantly. I praise Mr. Coughlin for staying as long as he has. These guys are a bunch of school-yard sissies, blaming everyone else, refusing to take that much needed hard look in the mirror.

well said...totally agree...this team is a bunch of "me-me" guys who talk more than they play.....its time to shut up and play...bunch of whiny sissy babies...maybe they do that cause they know they are the second best team in the ny area...who knows

Second best lol, thats funny.

The fact that Coughlin is a disciplinarian by coaching nature and seeing this team play as pathetically undisciplined as they are is the concern. I don't think Coughlin should go, but he may have in fact lost this team as a whole. Regardless these "players" need to STFU and be men and take care of their game, be part of the "team", and stop blaming others. Imagine TO mixed in with these sissy bitches on this team, WOW!

time to let barber retire...he's anti-coughlin...which is weird since he taught him how to hold onto the ball

for all the talk shockey does...has he done really anything since his rookie season??

eli < peyton...when they realize that, maybe they can get off his back and let him grow into the mediocre qb he's gonna become

BtownBeers · December 27th, 2006, 01:26 PM

Barber is all but gone, I think thats good for the team, he kind of annoys me lateley like he is some sort of god like player.

Shockey is a good TE and could be great but he is waaaayyy too inconsistent and I think his attitude honestly hurts his game big time, and I question how he is used/not used...I think he could flourish with an attitude adjustment and possibly a diferent team.

He certainly needs time to grow and will never be on par with his big bro. I agree, I don't see a great career QB out of him.

Peyton has funnier commercials than anyone! His are by far my favorite on TV.

BtownBeers · December 27th, 2006, 02:01 PM

Peyton makes me laugh. Then again so does Eli. Both in completely different contexts'.

ssigman · December 27th, 2006, 03:01 PM

well if you like 6 foot 5 quarterbacks with a laser arm...i could see why you might like a guy, like, peyton manning for example

of course you dont think coughlin should go. if i was an eagle fan i would want coughlin to stay also. the giants are like the raiders in a way in that they both need an overhaul. although the giants are not as bad as the raiders there are obviously major problems with this team.
