Episode notes
Harbaugh's Staff-Building Edge
- John Harbaugh's main strength is hiring and evolving strong assistants rather than micromanaging X's and O's.
- That track record makes the Giants' OC vacancy less alarming because Harbaugh will build the staff he trusts.
Coordinator Choice Shapes Whole Staff
- The OC hire matters because surrounding staff and position coaches flow from that decision.
- A younger, less-experienced OC could leave Harbaugh to patch staff pieces together from scratch.
Wide OC Candidate Spectrum
- The Giants' OC candidate pool mixes veteran NFL play-callers and young, ascending coaches tied to high-profile QBs.
- Names range from experienced coordinators to college innovators like Charlie Weiss Jr. and former Giants Davis Webb.
