I told @edvalentine.bsky.social before I published my deep dive on Shedeur for the draft that I was struggling to not make it read like a hit piece.

But after watching 10+ games, digging into the sticky stats, and reading every primary source I could... He wasn't draftable for me.

Counterpoint: I'd celebrate if you told me the roster was as fragile as two 2x1 plates put together.

Young Chris bled trying to get those little bastards apart.

The Giants need to make sure he doesn't feel like he has to do it all himself.

But why would the Giants trade their head coach just after hiring him?

"Is Gunner Olszewski a Top 5 QB in the NFC? In this piece I will..."

Gym class softball where coach is pitching for both teams.

(As a lefty, this is the only way I could get a pitch to hit)

Also Jared Bridge and a Jared Coda

Probably, although the dynamic could change if Spags gets the job and they had a solid relationship at KC.

I think the ideal situation is for Kafka to look like a legit HC and the Giants' version of Kyle Shannahan or Sean McVay. (him bringing back Wink would be fun as hell)

2nd best would be bringing in a defensive HC and let Kafka own the offense to keep continuity for Dart.

But once the Denver game happened and Daboll didn't fire Bowen, the defense was all on Daboll. Between that and how Dart was used, Daboll got fired. Now they're keeping Bowen around (for now) to not put too much on Kafka in the middle of the season.

*COMPLETELY MY OWN SPECULATION*

Daboll has been protecting Bowen because he's "his guy" and argued that he (Bowen) had too many of "Wink's Guys" to be successful last year. That led to Bowen being retained and a metric fuckton of resources being poured into the defense.

"Last Christmas" in any form is an auto-fail.

There's a reason we play Whamageddon.
