Coughlin is right back to work

By Ed Valentine

Tom Coughlin met the press Friday at the NFL Scouting Combine. The Star-Ledger's Mike Garafolo has posted the entire transcript.

Here's a snippet.

On last three weeks: "I'm trying to make sure that all the things along the way that you don't read about or see on TV or whatever, the interviews and that type of thing, I don't want to miss out on anything that was really good. Hopefully, that's not going to happen, but it's a blur the way that goes. But it's wonderful to hear people say 'Super Bowl champions' and 'champions of the world.' It's kind of nice to get here and be back in the football environment and see so many friends from years gone by, people that have been in the league for a long time. It's just a nice thought."

On if it's harder or easier to get back to work after a SB win: "You really don't ever stop. We got back (from the Super Bowl) on a Monday night, we had our exit meetings, et cetera, on Tuesday morning, we had a magnificent experience in the Canyon of (Heroes) over there in New York and we had a great session when we came back to the Meadowlands with the fans being there. Then, all of a sudden, the next day we had to do rankings and evaluations and write-ups and needs and things of that nature. So we went right ahead and did that. And then, as soon as we got back (from vacation), we continued along those lines with the information coming about the combine and free agency and started the evaluation of free agents, started our cut-ups. So we jumped right back into it."

Check it out. It's entertaining stuff.
