Gilbride was a genius to the extent that his offense was unstoppable when it had all the right pieces, i.e. a future HOF QB who is ice cold on the biggest stage, making big time play after big time play, a stable of receivers with a big play #1, a stable of backs and a top 10 Oline. Shame we dont have a decent GM to get anywhere near that.
So after signing washed up Hakeem Nicks a few weeks back, we see Barry Coefield come in this week for Merriweather who is being cut.
Who next? Plax!? Antonio Pierce!? Can Osi unretire?!
Coughlin has had bad moments this year but id give him a pass if he gets us to .500 or better. That record with the talent on this roster is respectable considering the injuries and the sheer lack of anything defensively outside of the two corners. The shit show oline is a farce too.
As it stands i fire Reese and look into how we improve our strength and conditioning as we are yet again one of the most injured teams.
Still think we can win the division and still think we can win this week. Unlikely but if i was offered 2-1 in the next few games i would take that and think that it could be good enough to get it done.
Eli and Beckham were masterful on Monday, but they are handicapped by a POS defense that cant stop anything. Dline and Oline need overhauling in the offseason. LBer and Safety too! Might need a TE also.
