The defensive coordinator manhunt continues
Hopefully you are using a pencil to keep track of your New York Giants defensive coordinator search scorecard. Things seem to change by the day.
- Romeo Crennel? I know Jim posted last night that Romeo was signed, seal and delivered to Kansas City. The New York Post did not cite and sources on that, though, leading me to think it is still speculative. Arrowhead Pride thinks Romeo to the Chiefs is going to happen, but no official word from the KC organization or the Crennel camp that it HAS happened.
- Perry Fewell? In a very solid breakdown late Monday night, Ralph Vacchiano blogs that it seems like Fewell could be Tom Coughlin's No. 1 choice, and that TC appears to be waiting for Fewell to choose between the Giants and the Chicago Bears.
- Jim Haslett? In that same report, Vacchiano mentions that the Giants have touched base with Haslett. RV calls that a "longshot."
- Mike Zimmer? True Blue reports that Cincinnati expects Zimmer to remain as their defensive coordinator.
- Paul Pasqualoni? He was fired Monday as defensive coordinator in Miami. The former Syracuse head coach has connections with Coughlin from their days at Syracuse.
- Pepper Johnson? No indication from anywhere that the Giants have yet reached out to the New England defensive line coach -- the overwhelming choice among folks here at BBV.
- Dick Jauron? Same as Johnson. I can't find any reports to show that the Giants have contacted Coughlin's former defensive coordinator in Jacksonville.

Is is just me...
…or, judging from this photo, does Pasqualoni look like he could actually motivate a defense???
I have my doubts.

That is not an Alligator Simms..
That is a Crocodile…You can tell by the teeth..there is a distinct difference..
I can't speak for the NFL
But i watched plenty of SU football when he was the coach and he would get pretty animated!
I agree...
Photo may not be doing him justice but he doesn’t look like he can motivate anyone.,
Well, judging by the photo
His mouth is opened, so he’s probably trying to communicate? Did anyone ever see BS do this? lol
NO
but i saw bill sheridan look like the janitor from scrubs
Why not trade for John Fox
Carolina wants to get rid of Fox and he seems to be a good defensive coach, I’m not sure how well he knows Coughlin, but he would be worth a future 8th round pick. The owners are buddies so a deal can happen quickly.
8th round pick?
that’s a joke right?
Like instead of playing the course, going drinking on the 19th hole?

Fewell is still my personal want
I am not convinced Peppers is the way to go.
Pepper is def. where I'm at...
but any news on Fox? last I heard he was given a choice to opt out of next year…would TC be interested in him? someone mentioned b4 that if the Giants tried a DC lure for Fox for1-2 years and then possibly being the man after TC – would that entice him? couldn’t it be something the Gmen would possibly want or would do??
Opus smart , lascivio magis , intereo gauisus...
sure, yeah
they could pay him more than Coughlin and guarantee the HC job next year. That might do it.

Should have done that
with Spags after the 2008 season
Made him assistant HC, guarantee he takes over in 2010 season
Spags panned in St Lou
the D there was nothing to sing about
point was
there’s no way to get a quality HC to sign on as a DC

why would Fox quit his job as a Head Coach
and take a demotion to the job he had before? That makes no sense. If Carolina had fired him, I could see it happening, but they’ve pretty much said they’d bring him back unless he took another job. Unless the Giants fired TC and just outright hired Fox as HC, it’s not happening.
2009 Did Not Happen
Carolina hasn't offered to extend his contract
and next year is it’s final year. Under normal circumstances a coach in that situation would probably not return, since it is considered a snub when an owner doesn’t offer to extend But this year there are a lot of quality coaches mulling their opportunities so Fox will probably come back and hope for a better chance to coach elsewhere later…..or, he could consider an offer like the Giants could offer.
by giant fan since 57 on Jan 12, 2010 5:17 PM EST up reply actions
Also if no CBA gets done and 2010 in uncapped
there is a good chance their will be a lockout in 2011 and owners don’t want to give out big contract extensions if they will not be making revenue in 2011 so thats why there are some coaches in Fox’s situation.
They want Cowher in Carolina
so I’m not sure why they just don’t fire Fox. It would be good for him to get promised the Giants HC job, but doesn’t TC want to serve out his contract, he’s not that old.
Carolina doesn't give it to Cowher because...
from what I read, Cowher still wants to be in the broadcast booth for another year, hence, the reason why Fox is still around for another year…
I am sure TC wants to finish out his contract, but not sure how long he is signed for 2-3years?

i believe fox would end up costing the giants draft picks

I think Carolina would take a 7th round pick
which is better than nothing if they fire him
pretty sure the Bucs had to trade real picks...
like 1st round picks, to get Gruden.
If Fox doesn’t opt in with his contract..he’s free to go where he choses.
Giants need that 7th (or 8th??) round pick.

the Giants restored "giant pride"
with a former Eagles assistent.
Everyone likes Pepper for what he was..I do too.
Being objective about it…….Fewell has been an actual DC for a few years. And an interim HC.
DId Buffalo do good? No. Would Buffalo be good with anyone at HC the way their injuries and bust draft picks have panned out? No.

so who would you prefer?
pepper j or fewell?
i dont know much about fewell personally….and taking a chance on pepper is a shot in the dark
how did it go in 2007?
Like I said in my post last week, I really hope the Giants don’t make their decision on superficialities like “this guy’s gonna be a first year coordinator and that just failed” – they need to decide whether Pepper Johnson will be a better DC than Perry Fewell or whoever else. Experience is obviously one factor, but there are many others that are equally important.
2009 Did Not Happen
Indeed, point taken
but a lot of the Peppers supporters seems based solely on he played the Giants and won 2 Super Bowls firstly and his actual defensive coaching being a secondary point. I could be wrong (only happens some of the time), but I am not feeling him as a strong blow away option like so many others around here.
Its more of sentiment.
I mean….Pepper’s credentials are not a pile of cow dung.
He’s every bit a Spagnuolo type candidate (not saying he turns out that way..just saying Spags from the 2006 offseason).
Probably more qualified then Spags.
I think of Pepper a whole lot like Antonio Pierce, except with a period of time away from the game as well as a long time assistent.
I know many would say AP would even be a nice candidate. He knows D..probably would be at least a good assistent.
Pepper is a very good choice. And that’s not cuz he was a former Giant either. Well…it kinda is cuz he learned under Belicheck all these years.
Fewell is better simply cuz he’s been an actual DC before.

Sheridan was a lateral move.
In hindsight..it was a dumb decision to begin with cuz he brought nothing new to the table.
Even Spags was going to have to adjust in 2009.
I’d prefer Fewell.
I have no problem with Pepper. I think he’s more Spags then he is Sheridan, cuz he comes from an outside system and has been an assistent for a long time, and was a heady ILB for a long time too..basically a coach on the field.
Fewell gives them the best chance to succeed in 2010..and going forward.
Fewell is as good a future HC choice as Pepper too, so that’s a good thing.

by FreeBradshaw on Jan 12, 2010 3:42 PM EST up reply actions
A lot of us here
are all for Pepper because he’ll instill pride and motivate the D and all that. And I think more than anything that’s what this D needs after this disaster season.
Who’s to say Fewell isn’t that guy too? If he is then he clearly has the advantage having been a DC. And he did it with an ok Bills D that was killed by injuries, still won 6 games and the D finished right in the middle of the league statistically.
Syracuse football used to be a powerhouse in the Big East
Under Pasqualoni, they became the suck they are today. Thank god for Boeheim. I guess that doesn’t say much about his DC abilities but reading his name pisses me off.
Whoa
Not to turn this into an SU thing, but facts are facts. Pasqualoni wasn’t that bad as preceived, and it wasn’t him that put the football into the ground, ala Temple-like doormat! It was Greg Robinson that did this program in. Out of the schools history, they never had a double-digit losing season, until Robinson decided to have TWO, in only four seasons!
Pasqualoni’s record
107-59-1 / 6-3 bowl games
Robinson’s record
10-37 / 3-25 Big East record (NICE)
Paul
Good career record yes but 17-31 in his last 4 years. He needed to go.
But again, that doesn’t mean he can’t be a good NFL DC. I think it’s more telling that he just got canned by Miami.
Good point, but
I would still take P’s last four years over Robinson’s first four, i mean his only four! lol
Hopefully Marrone can turn it around even though they only won 4 this year. It all comes down to recruiting!
I was thinking it would take a big name
for them to get the recruiting turned around but it’s a good school and a fairly solid program historically. It may just take the right guy.
Pasqualoni
Was not the problem in Syracuse. They were at least decent with him, and went down the tubes when they stupidly dumped him.

I'll tell ya..If Tom Coughlin is leaning towards choosing
One of his old cronies, then we should be looking for a new head coach..The organization should pull the plug on him and go after Fox as head coach and get Pepper for DC..as Mara said the status quo is unacceptable.
Cronies
Remember, the Pasqualoni name was floated by reporters just saying they have a connection. There is no evidence the Giants are actually pursuing anyone but Fewell and Crennel right now.

Cronies 2
Fact is, all coaches look to people they know — or least for recommendations from people they know. TC won’t hire anyone just to do him a favor — he has never operated that way.
by Ed Valentine on Jan 12, 2010 1:31 PM EST up reply actions
I like Fewell, no problem at all.
Fewell trumps Pepper cuz while Pepper would be nostalgic….he’s not in Fewell’s class, cuz Fewell’s a DC already and an interim HC.
Throw out the fact that Pepper was a former Giant. He’s an assistent for a team for a defense that has consistently gone downhill lately.
I like Pepper…he’s the #2 IMO
Fewell should probably be the choice cuz his experience is at the position the Giants need.
I do hope that Pepper gets an interview…but Fewell is the right man to be the #1 candidate right now, and given that he’s either going to Chi-town or NJ right now…I hope he chooses NJ.

Didn't Ray Rice just torch the Pats D for like 150 yards rushing
That being said, I agree that it was a unit in decline. I liked Pepper the Giant LB.
However, the blosphere as well as the traditional press is givng the Pats playoff grief for the exact same reasons we’ve been bitching about the last few Giants games: lack of pride and passion and focus in how they played. The Pats have leaders.
The pats are like us
We have our qbs (Brady and Eli), trying to lead the troops but noone else really anywhere else.
Both qbs are injured/were injured.
Where the other leadership was coming from on the Pats I couldn’t tell you, but we only had Eli and Feagles, and when your punter is trying to lead the troops, something’s wrong
Never assume skill at bouncing a ball makes you smarter than the guy who built the court.
When there's a WILL there's a WAY
The Patriots have lost leadership, especially on the D
This probably coincides with their transition from a couple years ago to now. They’re trying to get younger, but losing alot of vets in doing so. Say what you want about their play, but their presence and know how is valuable. Afterall, they have lost Seymour, Bruschi, Vrabel and Harrison. Off the top of my head, who are they passing the torch to? Wilfork, Mayo or Merriweather? Maybe Ty Warren? Wilfork seems ideal, as does Warren, but Mayo and Merriweather are young.
It really is an oddity that the Giants and Pats were in the SB two short years ago, and when certain cogs are removed, the landscape can change so quickly!
Part of why Belichick
got Moss and Welker, was because he knew his defense was going to get old soon.
Belichick thought they’d have more success by running up the score on everyone and have that hide the fact the defense hasn’t been good.
Injuries to Brady and Welker have defused that plan, and Moss, I don’t know what’s up with him.
Never assume skill at bouncing a ball makes you smarter than the guy who built the court.
When there's a WILL there's a WAY
Fewell would seem to be the safer choice ...
if you believe we can have a bounce back year in 2010, and really be a contender (roster-wise).
Pepper might be the better move if you figure you’re in a rebuilding mode (which I don’t) and can live with his growing pains at the DC level.
If this were the deciding factor
Fewell easily wins. there is no way with the talent on the Giants D that we should be really considered in a “rebuilding mode,” at least as far as the players go. There is definetly some patch work to be done, but that can be takin care of in FA and the draft. The overall core players on this D, and the young up-and-coming, hopefully they work out guys such as sintim and goff, should be enough to contend for a major playoff run if the existing holes are filled correctly. On top of filling a couple hole, what this D really needs is someone to light a fire under thier arses and someone who can creatvily run a defense.

I agree we're not in a rebuilding mode
I would call it “restocking”. There are too many good vets to say anything has to be scrapped. And by quickly firing the DC your saying we know we have the players, we need someone to get it out of them.
Secondary. KP, Ross (in his natural position), even Michael Johnson back there when he doesn’t have to account for everyone around him sucking, TT was solid and could break out even more. It could use restocking but the core is there.
LB. Boley was solid coming off injury when just about everyone else in that category was not. He’ll still be around and if AP is gone that means you’re building around Boley. Goff and Sintim COULD be good but restocking is definitely needed.
DL. Loaded with names, guys that WERE good. Not this year but every other year. Injuries and bad coaching killed them this year. The core of Osi, Tuck, Kiwi, Cofield, Alford, these guys are perfect for the system Spags ran. Some restocking but this is the most capable core on D.
Rebuild is not needed. Refocus is the thing that will get the D back to the top.
Free I agree with you
Fewell seems to be a hot commadity that TC has ties with. I really hope he chooses the Giants becauses I’m not high on some of these other guys.
Just the fact he’s known as being a good teacher of fundamentals, if the Giants only improve that area of their game the D will makes some strides.
Like you said Pepper is nice beacause of his name, and I would get excited if he was hired becasue of where he’s been but I’m leaning towards Perry.
I agree
If it has to be Fewell, i could live with that, though i voted for Pepper. But another thing that Fewell can bring is the work he had done with the Bills secondary. If he does come here, i hope he’ll have a degree of hands on approach with ours.
sounds bout right
pepper would be the fans fan coach.. but whats with fewell? his philosophy, history, good/bad stats and experiances.. im at work so spending time on google isnt a option right now
how about woo pepper
over as the dline coach.. yea its a lateral move but i’d think he would have more desire to coach for a team he spent his career with.
and hire fewell as DC
that would be nice

It only truely went downhill this year

If the Rooney rule applies here....
Peppers would satisfy it. I believe we only have two minority assistants in Merritt and Ingram.
We’re really, honestly, not lacking in talent for the most part( save a safety and some interior line help). We were lackluster and unmotivated. Let’s face it, our D quit on us down the road. so motivational ability is what’s needed after a good scheme. Peppers is the man for this job. He’ll immediately demand command respect and I think our guys would go through a war with him, never questioning his directives.
The New England defense is suffering due to age and injuries. Junior Seau has long passed his days of being a stud and the laedership has pretty much dissipated as well. You can’t blame Peppers for this as he’s only the D-line coach.
Another thought is that I’d like us to keep a door open for when Sam Madison gives up on playing and decides to coach. He was awesome to have on this team because he was an on field coach for the CB unit. We can definitely credit the development of Ross and Webster to him and possibly blame the drop in performance from Webby on his lack of presence this last season. I could see him taking over for Giunta as cornerbacks coach.
I’d also like to see Olivadotti as our LB coach. Herrmann was a Bill Sheridan hire and should have gone out the door with him. In my opinion, LB play has not been special for a long time and needs someone like Olivadotti or possibly even Armstead to turn it around.
Bleeding Blue since 1962
for the record
Seau was one of the best guys for the Pats D in that shamefest.

Greg Blache would fit nicely.
Blache has done a hell of a job in Washington considering how bad that team has been offensively. His D has been better or on par with the Giants in 2007 and 2008 and was significantly better than the Giants D in 2009. Even with all the upheaval in DC this year he somehow motivated the defense to do a halfway decent job.
Greg Blache
I thought alot about him also
thinking he would be a good fit but he inherited alot of talent from Gregg Williams
much like BS did from Spags and had alot of leadership issues down the stretch
He also like BS misused his people, dropping Orakpo in to coverage,his safties played so deep on 3rd down the middle was always wide open. he almost never Blitzed which just baffles me
living in the DC area you constantly heard the fans bitch about what he did to a great defense
it was very similar to hearing us talk about Sheridan
In his defense it hard to say how much is his fault and how much Snyders constant meddling affected his coaching style
You can see a lot just by observing-Yogi Berra
Fan side says Pepper. Reality side says Fewell.
Fewell is the way to go. And If we lose him to the bears, we shall know just how serious about ‘turning things around’ this organization really is.
I'll side with ya here Zill...
they need to make Fewell a very good offer, like HC in waiting/Ass head coach sort of thing.

defensive coordinator
when paul pasqualini was coaching at syracuse , the opposing teams averaged over 40 points a game. unless he has matl. that could blackmail coughlin, there is no way he would even warrant a courtesy interview.
Shot in the dark
I find the high level of sentiment for Pepper Johnson as the Giants’ new defensive coordinator somewhat perplexing. He doesn’t really have any track record and there’s nothing at all that would suggest that he’d be good or bad. I’d much rather hire someone with some kind of track record t as a DC that could be evaluated rather than hiring another untested position coach. Pepper might be a great DC, or he might be clueless. For a team that ought to be a playoff team, that’s not a gamble that I’d care to take.

The thing is...
Pepper, Fewell, the second coming of Fox, whatever, whomever, we have no idea how well that person may or may not do with the players available. Any one of them could be a hit, or a Gigantic miss. I for one still believe most of the blame for 2009 resides with the players, Sheridan having much to do with it, but not the lions share. That said, this armchair coach,
judging from what he’s read, thinks Fewell is the best of the lot.

…I’d be content signing Bulluck at LB, Wilfork at DT, and Phillips at safety.
by Last year in Sec 127 on Jan 12, 2010 4:32 PM EST reply actions
Disagree
Bulluck – while a stud and Syracuse alum – is old and starting to break down. I’m not convinced he is a huge upgrade over AP.
The LB that the Giants would want is Karlos Dansby. He definitely fits all of the needs:
- He is young (28)
- He is a locker-room leader (one of the captains of the Cards)
- He is “football” smart (returned the fumbled for a TD, I think)
Keith Bulluck = instant leadership. And has a talent for making huge plays when he needs to. Coming off the injury worries me though.
Karlos Dansby is a stud (6’-4", 250) but is he fast? It said he ran a 4.52 at the combine, but fast in shorts and fast in coverage are 2 different things.
Oh well, its gonna be an uncapped year, we didnt make the playoffs so dont have the rich getting richer restraints…. Sign em both!
The deeper AZ goes in the playoffs, the more Dansby's asking price goes up...
…if he keeps stepping up and making big plays on the national stage like he did against the Packers, he is going to be one costly free agent in the off-season. God forbid they actually win the whole thing. Captain of a Super Bowl winning defense? Yeah, that will fetch a pretty pretty penny on the open market.
by Step up and make big plays on Jan 12, 2010 8:36 PM EST up reply actions
Interesting enough
The Giants have gone after FA LB’s for awhile now. Not that they would have a shot at Dansby as the Cardinals will most likely tag him!
Bulluck blew out his ACL
a few weeks ago and is 33 so I’m not sure about him.
Karlos Dansby would be the guy, he’s still 28 so giving him a 4 year deal would not be crazy.
I would love Willfork but a big reason why the PATS traded Seymore was too save money so they could keep Wilfork becasue they knew they they had to pay him so I doubt he’ll be going anyware.
Ryan CLark is the best saftey but he struggles a bit in coverage, Giants need a coverage guy but Clark would be a big upgrade none the less.
If I had a choice, I’d take Dansby they should go hard after him.
Said it mid-season, stand by it still:
Giants must pay studs. Their way of doing things, which worked in the past, and may work in the future, in uncapped years, will not work now. Pay. Bring them in. Get the right coach. Mix. Swirl. Enjoy. But first you gotta get the right groceries, like from Whole Foods, the good stuff, and the good stuff costs. At least now it does.

Pepper
I am a Giant fan who goes back to YA Tittle and Del Shofner. They had better not try to pull any jackass stunt of saying that they talked to a “minority” in Romeo and therefore eliminate contacting Pepper. He is a throwback to the best defense we have ever seen and is a brain in his own right! They had better interview him and let the chips fall where they may.
sigh.....
they already interviewed Fewell…who’s black.
