A year ago today, in the midst of one of the most embarrassing seasons in franchise history, cataclysmic change came to the New York Giants. Coach Ben McAdoo and general manager Jerry Reese were fired.
That marked the first time the conservative Giants organization had fired a coach in season since Bill Arnsparger was replaced by John McVay with the Giants at 0-7. It marked the first time the Giants had ever fired a general manager.
The Giants were 2-10 at the time and finished that wretched season 3-13.
