Bull crap. All he did was have a little more of an open door policy and chat with players about their family...

LOL

I lived in NYC and read it in the Daily News every day, pal. 

The man was under heat to dial it back or lose his job in two separate seasons. And - as I've already explained (not that it matters with you) he was not allowed to be GM/HC/OC in NY because that's one major reason he was fired here. He was a control freak. That's a pretty giant freakin difference in how he was allowed to run things between Jax and NYG. 

He was at his best when he had good coaches around him and he played his role as HC only. He stopped doing that in Jax and it was his undoing. 

I can't believe I'm wasting my time explaining this [BLEEP].

You are spot on.  When the team went in to cap hell, it was Coughlin that was responsible for it.  It's not about his coaching or philosophy regarding the game.  It's not about him being a strict disciplinarian.  It was more about him being the sole person in charge.  In NYC he did ONE thing well and that was Head Coach.

My guess is that after the years of experience and learning from his failures is why/how he made it to an executive position.  I don't see him being active or "prominent" regarding the coaching or the drafting.  That would be micro-managing and would put him right back into the same type of role that got him fired from here to begin with.
