John Mara on Eli’s contract, Coughlin’s future and all things Giants

Post columnist Steve Serby fired some questions at Giants co-owner John Mara in a training camp Q&A:

Q: George Steinbrenner once said: “Winning is the most important thing in my life after breathing.” Are you at that point?
A: (Laugh) I would say I agree with George on that.

Q: You’re at that point now?
A: Yes, I am at that point. 2011 was a long time ago.

Q: In your season-ending press conference, you said it wouldn’t be unfair to call this a win-or-else year.
A: I would stand by that statement, but I’m not walking into people’s offices threatening them with their jobs if we don’t win.
