Perhaps... they knew Foles wasn't the answer. Perhaps they never wanted to make the switch and knew at some point, they'd have to switch back?

More evidence that the front office is meddling.

TC has GOT to go!

Wrong!

You see Tom's role is VP which means he's the boss of Caldwell and Marrone. He would never micro-manage or meddle.

I can't tell if this is supposed to be sarcasm or not.

He would have already been insubordinate. What reason would he have to not throw Coughlin under the bus for it? He already knows he's a dead man walking.

Makes him less employable + i'm sure he just wants to focus on football for his last few weeks

That, and he continues collecting checks through the end of the month.

He throws the EVPsomethingsomething under the bus, he's fired the very next day.

If he stays quiet, and Tom fires him under the guise of not following marching orders Re: the starting QB, Tom severely hurts his chance of bringing in any coach who doesn't want to be guided by puppet strings. This Doug guy might be smarter than we give him credit for (stop laughing).
