But that’s besides the point.  When do we address the obvious troll?

Coughlin does have control over the decisions that impact the roster and coaching staff, but if you haven't really paid attention, he's letting Dave and Doug do their jobs, offering his input where necessary for players and coaches we have brought in.  His role IS prominent in drafting, but it's different this time around from my perspective.  He's not the "one voice" in the stadium.  In fact, you barely hear from him most of the time as Doug and Dave handle most of the press availability.  Coughlin is a grinder, and I'm certain he's doing his part to continue building this roster.  Some folks need to take a breath and recongnize that what we saw in 2017 was awesome, but we had a lot of good luck to thank for that.  The injury bug set the team back big time last year, but I don't expect to see that year in and year out.  They'll rebound this year.  Nobody hates losing like TC.
