This franchise has had a terrible sense of timing. When Coughlin got us into salary cap hell and needed a fire sale we jettisoned the higher priced talent to get in under the cap. Then when Coughlin couldn't win with what he had we fired him.

 

Replace him with a first or second year DC in Del Rio who knew nothing about Head Coaching and he is going to the promised land with Leftwich. Too much patience with him and poor drafting gets him sentenced to Purgatory. Shack Harris is blamed for the poor talent so he gets shown the door.

 

A few more seasons of losing and we don't go after Peyton Manning when he's available. He might not have been here for long but he would have established a culture of winning. We pass on Andy Reid when he's available and hire another DC with no experience.

 

Two years after replacing experienced players with rookies we continue to give the keys to a coach going nowhere and making simple game day mistakes. His teams are undisciplined bumbling fumbling players who don't tackle well, don't lower the shoulder to get another couple yards, and don't know how to get off the field in time.

 

Does anyone here believe Tom Coughlin's team would have this many turnovers, or false start penalties?
