"The bad news is that the former head coach's ineptitude was just the tip of the iceberg, and that Big Blue's dysfunction extends all the way to the top, which should come as no surprise to anyone. John Mara and Steve Tisch's team is a punching bag. After a 3-14 season last year, which was one of their worst in their 100-year history, the Giants are 2-9 with little suggestion that they'll figure it out."
"But the issues run significantly deeper. Schoen and Daboll created a culture lacking accountability, and it had become so bad that people within the organization were singing about the organization's issues. Someone in the Giants building reportedly went to ESPN's Adam Schefter last week and blamed rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart's aggressive style of play, particularly with his legs, for his concussion suffered in Week 10 in Chicago."
Brian Daboll was fired after the Week 10 loss to the Chicago Bears. The team's problems extend beyond coaching to general manager Joe Schoen and ownership decisions. The Giants went 3-14 last season and sit 2-9 this season with little sign of improvement. Schoen allowed Saquon Barkley to walk and failed to adequately surround Daniel Jones with talent. A culture lacking accountability developed under Schoen and Daboll, with internal personnel publicly criticizing team handling. Team insiders blamed rookie Jaxson Dart's aggressive rushing after his Week 10 concussion, deflecting from coaching and preparation shortcomings.
