C-Mac: Giants firing Brian Daboll would be 'a huge waste of the last three years'

The Giants are three years into the Brian Daboll era, and yet, it still seems like they’re back at square one again, with a broken-down team in salary cap purgatory trying to find their next savior.

Which is part of why Chris McMonigle thinks that if the Daboll/Schoen era is canceled, the last three years will have just been a giant waste of time, kicking a can down the road in a manner Sisyphus himself could only laugh at.

“It doesn’t make much sense, and it’s not because he’s done a great job, but I feel like he was brought here for a reason, and it will be the biggest waste of three years,” McMonigle said during Peter Schwartz’s mid-7 am hour update segment. “If they fire Daboll, never give him a QB, bring in someone else and have that someone else draft a QB – what the hell was he here for?”

“I know Daniel Jones stunk, but he did get a good season out of him and a playoff win, so that has to count for something,” Schwartz chimed in. “Imagine what he could do with a good line and a good quarterback?”

The thing is, because it’s three years in, and because of what they had to deal with coming in, C-Mac and C-Lo are sure the offense is not all Daboll’s fault, even if Schoen is the one who signed Drew Lock to be this year’s backup.

“The quarterbacks…it’s unbelievable how they just can’t get the ball out of their hands,” C-Mac said. “They scored 20 points in this game and that felt like a lot. They’re averaging 14.8, which went up yesterday, and they’re the worst in football.”

“And why can they not ever push the ball down the field anymore?” C-Lo added. “Or they just chuck it up and someone gets a great catch – just doesn’t happen. And the offensive line…they keep trying, but they never have a good one.”

The guys compared that to the fact that the Jets also have a poor and porous line but can still get the ball down the field, so maybe Daboll just needs to get to a full reset the same way Washington did?
