a few Giants fans on the airwaves calling for Coughlin's head. 

The Giants aren't ran by the fans.

Nothing to back it up eh?  After today's debacle in KC, there are quite a few Giants fans on the airwaves calling for Coughlin's head.  I suggest we revisit this at the end of the season.

fans on a radio talk show (probably drunk fans) is what you are clinging too....lol lol. Uh, ok!

Son, I read newspaper articles from all over the country.  Everywhere I look I see Giants fans lashing out at the team and wanting a coaching change.

"Son"....LOL LOL!!

Miami fans have wanted Jeff Ireland gone for years and he hasn't brought his franchise 2 Super Bowls like Coughlin has. Fans in Miami holding protests outside the team offices against Ireland, fans calling in radio shows wanting Ireland fired, fans flying banners above the stadium on game days saying Fire Ireland, and he was...oh wait.... Just given a contract extension. NEVERMIND! 

If the "New York Newspapers/Tabloids and Call in Radio Shows" is you trying to justify thinking Coughlin is getting fired you have really no leg to stand on.

There are only two ways that Coughlin's seat gets hot this year:

1) The Giants' losing streak reaches 0-13 or 0-14
2) Coughlin eats the Rattlesnake burrito from Baja Cafe and ass-trumpets a massive jalapeno cloud into his seat cushion.

"Son"....LOL LOL!!

Maybe he's tired of pretending to be a professor, and wants to pretend to be your Dad for a while...

You have zero plus on the state of Giants fans.  I just went to one of their message boards.  Yes, there were fans suggesting regime change -- but it was a very very small minority.  

There was also a thread discussing --- who was the better coach - Bill Belichick or Tom Caughlin.  Majority said Belichick.  However, there are more Giants fans who believe that Tom is either: better, just as good or only slightly inferior to Bill than there are fans that want Tom fired.  That is hardly outrage of the fan faithful.      

And as for the New York papers --- They are having too much fun comparing Geno Smith's version of a butt fumble to Mark Sanchez's to get too worked up about the Giants.

This is the "let's start a discussion by listing all the winless coaches" thread.  No thought behind the list whatsoever.

Given the way that team has played, this is not out of the realm of possibility.  I was listening to Mike and Mike on ESPN Radio on the way to work and they were having a discussion on which of the winless coaches actually have hot seats.  Tom Coughlin actually came up as "warm" which was largely based on the way this team has performed the past two weeks and Eli Manning's overall performance.  It crop to "tepid" if they improve and win a few games.  Mike Tomlin was listed as "tepid" because he's got control of the locker room.  Greg Schiano was "hot" because he clearly doesn't have control of the locker room and a lot of rumors are flying.  Gus Bradley was "warm" because it is his first year, but that team has been playing players that just got promoted from the practice squad and is downright awful.  If any team could match the Detroit Lions 0-16 debacle in 2008, it would be the 2013 Jaguars.  And even though it is Bradley's first year, you can't go 0-16 and keep your job.

How's that Tom Coughlin hot seat going? Just checking in......oh wait, nevermind

Looks like both his and Mike Tomlins have cooled down a bit.  So has Greg Schiano's with two wins.  Atlanta's Mike Smith might be feeling the heat now as is the Dolphins Joe Philbin

[CF DolFan]

Schiano is fired no matter what.

Not if they keep winning. Players are starting to stand up for him.

“It was tough here for a while, what with the whole Josh Freeman thing and guys getting hurt, but through all of that Coach Schiano was like, “Forget that, get your pads on and keep working,’ ” Buccaneers guard Davin Joseph said, via Roy Cummings of the Tampa Tribune. “And now we’re finally getting a sense to where the guys in this locker room really do believe him and believe in him. And I can say now that this is first time I can say that we’re a family now.

“He’s been preaching that since he walked in the door and sometimes you don’t know where they’re coming from with that. . . . It was family, family, family and it makes sense now. I can say we really are like a family now because guys really trust him, guys really believe in him because all that stuff he’s been saying about just keep your head down and keep working, it’s all coming true now.”

Looks like Schiano's seat may have cooled off.  Here's a new one though.  Gary Kubiak of the Texans.  His high powered offense managed just six points against Jacksonville yesterday and fans are harassing Matt Schaub

Looks like I called it correctly on Kubiak.  He's been relieved of his duties as of today.

Bull shit you called nothing correctly. 

He wasn't on your original list of 6, all 6 of them remain employed and one coach that wasn't on the list was fired. 

Or do you want to predict NE wins the AFCE today and then boast about it at the end of the season.

He probably teaches the course "Intro to Hedged Bets"
