Tom Coughlin

Likely? Probably not. Impossible? Never say never.

Yep. We’re starting out in controversial fashion, but let’s not pretend that forcing Coughlin to step down wasn’t the first in a long string of poor decisions that led these Giants to where they are today. The real question would be whether or not Coughlin would want to come back to New York. Or, at this point, whether he even desires a return to the sideline at all.

Bottom line: The Giants need an old-school disciplinarian leading the way because the whole player-friendly thing is clearly not working.

The problem with Coughlin, who was recently terminated by the Jacksonville Jaguars for excessively and illegally fining players, is that he’s too much of a disciplinarian for today’s NFL and today’s era.
