While most of the New York Giants’ unemployment noise has been around former head coach Brian Daboll’s firing and fans’ insistence on defensive coordinator Shane Bowen’s firing, general manager Joe Schoen has come out pretty unscathed.
He’s by no means clean, but ownership has all but publicly backed him by announcing the 46-year-old will be heading up the head coaching search once the season is over. It’s a confusing and semi-infuriating reality, especially since many of the team’s failures are just as much his as they were Daboll’s. There’s definitely some sort of scapegoat situation going on, and after another loss to the Green Bay Packers on Sunday, it’s becoming more obvious than ever that Schoen’s gotta go.
