EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (CBSNewYork/AP) — After telling his players to forget about a dreadful first seven games of the season, New York Giants coach Ben McAdoo is heeding his own advice and ignoring comments by general manager Jerry Reese that his team got caught up in the preseason hype and hasn’t played hungry.
McAdoo refused on Monday to get drawn into a tiff with Reese as the team returned from its bye week and faced the final nine games of the season with a 1-6 record.
While accepting the blame for the team’s performance, Reese also had shared the blame with his second-year coach last week.
