Summary

The guys put their reputations on the line by predicting the exact date and time the Giants’ next head coach will be reported by Schefter or Rapoport, not the press conference, the real breaking news moment. From there, the conversation swerves into a brutal reality check on Bill Belichick. Is the greatest resume in NFL history suddenly irrelevant? They dissect why the phone might not be ringing anymore, how Pete Carroll’s one and done stint changed league perception, and why age suddenly feels like a bigger factor than anyone wants to admit. Then it turns into a wide ranging debate on Harbaugh vs McCarthy, playoff failures, coaching “stench,” and whether history actually matters when hiring a Super Bowl caliber head coach.

0:53.0	Yeah, we have three days before we can talk about it. I was going to go along those lines. So I was looking at the history of when the Giants have hired coaches. It's always in January. It's usually in mid-January. The latest one was- I'd hope. Yeah, right. The latest one was Brian Dayball, but that makes complete sense because they needed to wait for his elimination.
