Matt Patricia to be next NY Giants head coach - HC OF NYG

We all know how great Belichick's underlines have done as head coaches.

A rocket scientist has blasted his way into the lead to be the Giants' next head coach.

All signs are pointing to Matt Patricia, the New England Patriots defensive coordinator with a degree in aeronautical engineering, as the man the Giants will hire to point Big Blue back in the right direction.

The Giants' glory days saw Bills Parcells, a coach with defense as his backbone, patrolling the sidelines at the Meadowlands, with Bill Belichick as defensive coordinator, winning the franchise's first two Super Bowls in 1986 and 1990, setting the standard in North Jersey.

But since Parcells, the Giants have hired five head coaches all with offense as their calling card: Ray Handley, Dan Reeves, Jim Fassel, Tom Coughlin and Ben McAdoo.

Coughlin won the Super Bowl twice in 2007 and 2011, but even in '07 succeeded and ruined New England's perfect season thanks largely to Steve Spagnuolo's rabid pass rush led by Michael Strahan, Osi Umenyiora and Justin Tuck.

Great defense defines the Giants at their peak.

And while improving the offense and developing a young quarterback to succeed Eli Manning are priorities in this coaching search, Patricia feels like too good of a fit and could bring an offensive coordinator to address those needs, perhaps Alabama's Brian Daboll, 42, who overlapped with Patricia for seven seasons in New England.

Patricia, 43, as the Daily News has written a few times the last couple days, is not a done deal to the Detroit Lions as several reports had claimed coming out of his interviews last weekend with the Giants, Lions and Cardinals (oh my). In fact, there are indications he prefers the Giants to the Lions.

Amazing. Word around Detroit is that your brother was going to bring him to the Lions.

 

The GM is a buddy from the Belicheck tree, the team has a solid QB and the least bad roster of any of the available teams, and the sh*ttastic owner doesn't interfere in football operations other than harboring a desire to give blow jobs to standing in unison with all the kneelers on the team.

Only difference with him is that in 3 years when the Giants fire his ass and he would typically beg to go back to New England, Brady and Belichick won't be there

[Thornton Melon 542]

Well, the coordinator of a mediocre (at best) defense should make a mediocre (at best) head coach

[Kanil 519]

Never been impressed with his defenses. Maybe he's great at team management or something. Who knows.

meh... SuperBowls... Coaches... even some players... the Giants just keep getting New England leftovers.

Don't forget the 2 trophies

[Reality 2,710]

Could you imagine that dude being your front man?

 

Sweatshirt, backwards hat, unruly mop and beard.. Maybe he'll be great and kill it but, yeesh, good luck with that.

 

As a 9'ers fan, giving me flashbacks of Tomsula.. That dude was a real gem.

I'm guessing the backwards hat and beard will have to go.

 

The Giants aren't as uppity as the Yankees, I'm guessing that won't fly though

 

I say, if he wins, who gives a fock what he looks like?

[TD Ryan2 314]

here again is an example of BB not being a black-hearted, emotionless, automaton of football genius and greatness.

 

BB is very tuned into the history, legacies, and reputations of those entrenched in the NFL.. from owners, franchises, coaches, etc. and he has a network of people teams, owners, etc that he respects and trusts - the Maras/Giants among them... the 49ers/Shanahans too... and Belichick really does try to put his disciples (players and coaches) in situations where they can succeed.

So whether it's Patricia, Garropollo, or Jamie Collins... where Bill sends you is often a pretty good indicator of how he felt about you - p!ss him off and you end up in a place with people that BB doesn't know, like, or respect.

[Mookz 1,287]

Two first names, one female?

 

I mean, what's next, head coach Pete Jessica?

 

It's a slippery slope.

[listen2me 23 1,529]

I'd assume they are or will be after a quality OC. Not sure, in the year it looks like you will draft your next QB....you pair him iwth a defensive guy. Doesn't really make much sense.

Pete Carroll

[Mookz 1,287]

Pete Carroll

 

SEE!

[BufordT 371]

Think I read somewhere they're only looking for mediocre OC's.

[parrot 789]

I thought Belichick was going to the Giants?

As president, dummy

Holy RMFF.

He can't be that bad. No one is that bad

Pretty sure same was said for the hires of

 

Charlie Weis - set Notre Dame back 5 years

 

Romeo Crennel - Cleveland/KC - Ouch

 

Josh McDaniels - Drafted Tebow in the 1st round

 

Eric Mangina - Oof

[tanatastic 2,061]

They should be happy, he can’t be any worse.

[Gladiators 1,900]

BB wanted to hold Jimmy so he could go along with Patricia.

Crenel and Weiss were more Parcells than BB.

[edjr 5,538]

Crenel and Weiss were more Parcells than BB.

 

I guess you could argue that, but 5 years with BB for Weis and 3 super bowl wins

 

4 for Crennel and 3 super bowls too

[shotsup 830]

Unimpressed

Yeah I mean a name in mind that they think is a stud. Seems like the wrong strategy as of late to have a defensive head coach in place and draft a 21 year old QB. Fisher and Goff. Fox out 1 year after Trubisky drafted. At least Patricia is young and not an old school Jeff Fisher sort of guy.

Missed this.

[fandandy 3,311]

Looks like Shurmer to Giants and Patricia now to the Lions.

[shotsup 830]

Looks like Shurmer to Giants and Patricia now to the Lions.

That seems to be what is rumored. Along with McDaniels to Indy.

[Hardcore troubadour 12,552]

I approve of Shurmer. Hopefully he keeps Spags and dumps the special teams coach Quinn.

[Cruzer 1,992]

In other HOOGE breaking news:

 

Cowboys sign former Bungles offensive line coach Paul Alexander... His former team ranked 31st in run offense last year....

Had Mixon in two leagues. All I heard was how bad the line was.

All we need is a few animals, a juggler and a trapeze artist - plenty of clowns already here to complete the circus.

Detroit media has been saying all along that ed's brother was bringing Patricia to Detroit. He;s sure been acting like it's a done deal even before this thread was posted.

[WhiteWonder 2,170]

who cares what he looks like. McGoo looked like a retard, changed himself to look like a state trooper and he sucked ass.

 

let Patricia look like a guy running a burger joint for all I care if im a giants fan. Just win games. BB isn't winning any fashion shows

What do you think of this?

You are really sour compared to last year. Is that the vibe in the big D now?
