The New York Giants are not racist

The fact that the New York Giants did not hire Brian Flores does not make them a racist club. From the minute Joe Schoen was hired, it was evident who the Giants preferred in the head coach hunt. It's absurd to argue the New York Giants didn't go about their head coach search properly. During the process, the Giants interviewed six head coaching candidates, three of them were African Americans. During this phase, two of the three applicants had two interviews. Not only were half of the candidates of color, but they also gave each contender a chance to prove themselves. The Giants aren't the problem. The problem is Brian Flores, who is enraged that he was beaten out in the process. It's important to hear from both sides of the story before making judgement. To judge your opinion from a so-called text message from Patriots Head Coach Bill Belichick where he stated he heard rumors that Brian Daball was the favorite is nonsense and that's not being sensible. You are taking a side before all the facts have been laid out. Well, here are the facts of the situation. Fact number one: Giants Owner John Mara reached out to Brian Flores before he even hired Joe Schoen as general manager. In fact, Brian Flores was the first person the Giants called and told him there was interest to make him head coach of the Giants. There are rumors John Mara favorite coming into this process was Brian Flores. But of course, during the process things change which lead to Brian Flores being beaten out by Daball. Fact number two: This idea that Flores has come up with from Belichick text messages that Daball was hired 3 days before they interviewed him is simply not true. The Giants haven't even given Daball an in-person interview yet. The text messages took place one day before the Giants even had Daball in the building. The Giants don't operate like the Browns or the Dolphins they actually operate with class. And they would never hire someone they never even interviewed in person. So, let's stop this nonsense making the Giants look like they were racist simply because they decided Brian Daball was the best person for the job. But simply because I defended the Giants doesn't just take away from the race issues across the rest of the NFL. It's very clear that other teams have avoided hiring people of color on all levels of their club. But the Giants haven't! We had an African American general manager for nearly a decade! Our head trainer is African American! and so many others on our coaching staff is African American! It's important to understand there is more to a team than just the head coach.

Stop the Reset: The Giants Deserve Stability, Not Chaos

Giants Head Coach Brian Daboll at the NY Giants NFL team held an organized team activity at their training facility in East Rutherford, NJ on Thursday May 30, 2024. / Tariq Zehawi/NorthJersey.com / USA TODAY In the whirlwind world of the NFL, there’s always a clamor for instant results. But for the New York Giants, it’s high time to pump the brakes on this cycle of constant resets. The idea of resetting every three years simply doesn’t work. The Giants have suffered from an endless revolving door at head coach and general manager for far too long, and the lack of stability has been a key factor in their prolonged mediocrity. Let’s get something straight: you don’t fire GM Joe Schoen because of one controversial decision—moving on from Saquon Barkley. And you certainly don’t ditch Brian Daboll, a Coach of the Year, while the team is still in the midst of a rebuild. This knee-jerk reaction culture does nothing but set franchises back even further. It took the Detroit Lions three long yea...

The Reality Check on Jalen Hurts: Breaking Down the Eagles’ Quarterback Situation

The past few weeks have been an eye-opener for Eagles fans, whether they’re ready to admit it or not. Since Jalen Hurts suffered his injury, we’ve seen backup quarterbacks step in and, frankly, outperform Hurts in terms of execution and consistency. It’s a tough pill to swallow for the die-hard “Hurts Homers,” but the numbers don’t lie. Let’s talk about the cold, hard facts. Jalen Hurts finished the season ranked 20th in passing yards and 18th in passing touchdowns. For a quarterback hailed by some as an MVP-caliber player, those rankings are mediocre at best. To make matters worse, the Eagles’ offense as a whole is 30th in passing yards, averaging a paltry 180 yards per game—all under the leadership of Hurts. The truth is that Hurts has consistently struggled as a passer. Whether it’s his inability to make tight-window throws, a lack of accuracy, or poor decision-making under pressure, these weaknesses have been glaring throughout the season. And it’s not just critics or fans pointing...

The New York Giants: Why Patience with Brian Daboll and Joe Schoen is Paying Off

The New York Giants are finally breaking a destructive cycle. For the first time since the Tom Coughlin era, the organization is showing something it has lacked for years: patience. The decision to stick with Brian Daboll and Joe Schoen, even during tough stretches, is a sign of growth and understanding of how success is built in the NFL. Let’s face it—firing head coaches every two or three years to appease frustrated fans isn’t sustainable. The NFL is a league that demands consistency, and teams that cycle through leadership rarely find success. Look no further than the Detroit Lions. After years of being the league's punching bag, the Lions took the time to build under Dan Campbell. It wasn’t an overnight success, but now they’re thriving. The Giants seem to finally be embracing that same long-term mindset. Yes, mistakes have been made in the past. Poor drafts, bad contracts, and an inability to build a cohesive vision put the team in a constant state of chaos. Giants fans have e...
