Sheridan's not cutting it, and they've been pretty patient with his lack of focus, inability to instill any sense of pride and tradition, and (perhaps most telling) a catastrophic FAILURE to make an adjustment at halftime while the game is still within reach. <br /><br />Mr. Sheridan, can I help you with your coat? And you better start packing those bags.bob in VAhttp://www.1600.tvnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6389921495587729314.post-4098641878194735882009-11-30T14:16:51.473-05:002009-11-30T14:16:51.473-05:00Ernie - I disagree that it's impossible to bri...Ernie - I disagree that it's impossible to bring in an outsider once the season has started. Other teams have pulled it off. Is it ideal to have a DC come in midway through a season? Of course not. It's for emergencies only. To me, dead last in red-zone defense and losing 5 out of 6 qualifies as an emergency for a team that's a season and a half removed from winning the Super Bowl. And let's be honest, the Atlanta game could have gone the other way. so they could very well be on a six game slide. As Mitch said, Jauron is available right now and, not that I'm a fan of the guy, so is Jim Haslett. Both men, while NOT being a perfect solution, I believe could take over right now and do a better job than Sheridan. Obviously, I am not privy to insider info such as you are, but my impression is that Sheridan either isn't able to do the job or just wasn't ready for the responsibilities of being the DC. Either way, it's hard to argue with the evidence on the field. This defense scares no one and folds like a house of cards in a nor'easter once the opposing team gets past the 20 yard line. I believe such a drastic change has a better chance to improve things than to make them worse. I hope the D can turn it around against Dallas, but honestly, would you bet any money that they will?dweez115noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6389921495587729314.post-74374418105052750882009-11-30T13:46:14.083-05:002009-11-30T13:46:14.083-05:00I think the Giants have two options at DC that the...I think the Giants have two options at DC that they should consider. Dick Jauron is now available (He was Coughlin's DC in Jacksonville) and I believe John Fox will be fired at the end of the season. Personally, I never wanted Fox to leave and he was a fine DC for the GMen. As far as finding a new OC...of course Charlie Weiss would be perfect but I believe Belichick and him are close friends.Mitchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02151576898703507305noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6389921495587729314.post-75437180254507665552009-11-30T13:03:41.297-05:002009-11-30T13:03:41.297-05:00I heard New England was going to hire him back.

Who's out there?

Or something like that. It certainly appears like he hasn't cut it as a coordinator. <br /><br />If you remember, even Spangnolo's approach took a few weeks to catch on. The Giants' defense looked terrible the first couple of weeks under Spagnolo. But then it clicked and they started playing great. Nothing has clicked with Sheridan. I think he has had his chance.Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15441341177570102832noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6389921495587729314.post-37614131788642582982009-11-30T12:13:10.852-05:002009-11-30T12:13:10.852-05:00Ernie - what about Charlie Weis as new offensive c...Ernie - what about Charlie Weis as new offensive coordinator for next year??

But I'm talking about what should happen now, and it's impossible to bring in an outsider once the season has started. Since I pretty much deemed that option impossible, I didn't include it. But I agree, had we been talking about the offseason, that probably would have been the overwhelming vote.Ernie Palladinohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18158244440623733145noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6389921495587729314.post-41383336288248414142009-11-30T11:15:04.659-05:002009-11-30T11:15:04.659-05:00In fairness Ernie, I think it would have been a mu...In fairness Ernie, I think it would have been a much different vote if you offered the option of fire Sheridan and bring in an experienced DC from the outside. I think Sheridan is in way over his head. Some guys just can't make the jump to the next level.dweez115noreply@blogger.com
