His record with Jax was impressive but his record with the Giants is amazing. If the Giants win this SB, its time to crown him a HoF coach.
Yes. He's just not the sexy pic. When he wins this SB he cements himself IMO. Of course look how they dog Tom Flores.
Coughlin gets a bad rap imo. He gets results and his players like him enough to come through every time his job is on the line. I dont believe there is a coach who has won two SB's that is not in the HOF. So to answer the OP's question, it probably cements him as a HOFER
Pretty simple really. Win and he's in. Otherwise he's going to be one of those borderline cases, like a Dick Vermeil.
If they win, I wouldn't be surprised if he retires. And Bill Cowher would all of a sudden be hireable.
These are Giants fans/media we're talking about here...what do you think? Seriously though...it's a joke how much sh*t he gets. Numerous trips to the playoffs, 2 SB appearances, and 1 win (possibly 2). He's obviously doing something right. Maybe NY wants him out because he looks like death, I dunno.
Its funny, but i picture it like this: He is what people think Fisher is but isn't, but is treated how Fisher should have been treated but wasn't.
^^ this.. i never understood the Jeff Fisher fascination as a head coach. solid, yes. but underwhelming IMO. i do like Coughlin. strikes me as a bit of a throwback.
