Well see that's the thing about firing coaches. Why would you want to fire him if there aren't any better options available?

The team has no confidence in Coughlin and thinks he gets outcoached, but what are they going to think if they bring in a Bobby Petrino type guy, ie some college coach? Given the lack of success most college coaches have, wouldn't it stand to reason that the Giants would get fed up with any mistakes their coach makes as well?

I mean, maybe not, you never know if the next college coach or young assistant is going to be a good one. But chances are, the Giants would just be bitching and moaning under the new coach, just like they would be for Coughlin.

If they could get their hands on Grimm, I'd think he would be an upgrade over Coughlin. Too bad the Steelers are probably all over him. But other than Grimm, who's definitely better than Tom Coughlin? Doesn't make sense to me to just go changing coaches; you only do it if you've got someone you are pretty sure is going to be better.
