Before the New York Giants had head coach Brian Daboll, they had Joe Judge. But before they had Judge, Big Blue had Pat Shurmur. Holy cow, it's shocking how they're just the same coach with different names.
For Giants fans, Shurmur’s name still triggers that faint, familiar sense of exhaustion. His two-year stint in East Rutherford from 2018 to 2019 was a masterclass in mediocrity — 9-23 overall, a lost locker room, and borderline confusing game management.
Every Sunday felt like a new way to lose, and somehow, that was the most consistent thing about his tenure.
