Why the NY Giants must hire Matt Rhule as Head Coach

Soon after the NY Giants concluded its 2019 season with a 34-17 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles, team president John Mara and chairman Steve Tisch announced that they have dismissed head coach Pat Shurmur after two seasons.

The NY Giants were a combined 9-23 throughout Shurmur’s tenure as head coach, and have not won more than five games in any of the last three seasons.

The team also confirmed that Dave Gettleman will remain in his position as general manager. His job security is a different discussion for a different day, but it seems as if Gettleman’s polarizing draft selection of rookie quarterback Daniel Jones has bought him another year at the helm – whether the fans like it or not.
