Summary

John Harbaugh did not just take the Giants job. He chose it. The guys explain why Harbaugh skipping other interviews is such a powerful signal about where the New York Giants are headed, and why this hire stands apart from past coaching cycles. They also dig into how Joe Schoen’s roster build and the drafting of Jaxson Dart helped make the Giants the most appealing destination on the board. From past misses to present momentum, this is the clearest case yet that the Giants finally got it right.
