Gibbs vs. Coughlin

I would agree that the cupboard is currently not bare.
Gibbs went out and got the talent he needs to be competitive.

It was mostly already here. O-line, stacked. Wideouts, stacked. Most important is he's bringing some order, something we've lacked since '01.

To Dave Butz: From discipline comes execution.

Also he brings experienced coaches, which we havent had the last 2 years. That will make a huge difference

RedskinRat, I completely understand that and would expect that to be true, but in time. For King to say that this new discipline that Coughlin is bringing will translate into wins for NY faster than Gibbs will is a pipedream. In time it could, but the premise of the article was to debate about who would produce wins faster.

Even with a new found sense of purpose, I don't think the players the Giants have at the skill positions will be able to translate that to wins in a hurry. I especially don't see it happening quickly since he is bringing in such strong discipline and it'll take him a year or two to get "his" guys. We've already seen evidence of that.



And oh yeah! with heartfelt apologies to the Ramones...

I like Arrington's approach to the team's potential (upgraded coaches/players)...he said something like we are a 5-11 team right now until we prove otherwise...

My goals:

1st step - progress beyond being pathetic
2nd step - win more games then you lose
3rd step - be feared by your opposition and gain some pride
4th step - make the playoffs
5th step - become a threat to run the table

I hope we take a lot of steps this year. However, after what we've been going through, I'll be estatic if we take the 3rd step this year.

No predictions here..just alot of hope I can go to a home game against the Giants/Cowboys this year and feel proud and excited rather than embarrassed by the over abundance of people in blue shitting on us..
