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 every right to be frustrated after years of mediocrity, but the current regime is cleaning up the mess—and it’s going to take time.


Joe Schoen, in particular, deserves credit for making tough decisions. While some fans were upset about key players walking out the door, Schoen understood that the team couldn’t keep kicking the financial can down the road. For the first time in years, the Giants are no longer in cap hell. This financial discipline is what allows the team to build a sustainable contender.


Let’s also not forget the impact of last year’s draft. Schoen and Daboll brought in key pieces that are starting to shape the foundation of the team’s future. The Giants are heading in the right direction, even if the progress isn’t always obvious in the win column. Building a winner in the NFL isn’t about instant gratification; it’s about making the right decisions, even when they’re unpopular.


For too long, the Giants prioritized quick fixes over sustainable growth. Daboll and Schoen represent a much-needed shift in philosophy. They’re focused on the long game—building a team that can compete year after year, not just a flash-in-the-pan playoff run.


So, to the fans calling for immediate success, take a step back and look at the bigger picture. Yes, there will be growing pains. Yes, there will be moments of frustration. But for the first time in a long time, the Giants have leadership with a clear vision and the patience to see it through.


Brian Daboll and Joe Schoen are the right people for the job. Let’s give them the time and support they need to do it. After all, the Giants aren’t just trying to win games—they’re trying to build something that lasts. And that’s worth waiting for.

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...
