I have been clear this week that Brian Daboll, despite whatever mistakes he has made during this 2-7 debacle of a season for the New York Giants, should return as the team’s head coach next season.
There is only one thing that could change my view of that, and it wouldn’t necessarily be the Giants failing to win another game and finishing 2-15. Injuries have left a roster that was thin to begin with seriously undermanned.
The one thing that could derail Daboll is a locker room implosion. I don’t see one coming, but in the wake of Xavier McKinney’s comments after Sunday’s loss to the Las Vegas Raiders the possibility is worth discussing.
