Spagnuolo is looking good (Defense)

After watching what they did I don't know if I mind so much. Granted much of their pressure on defense is attributed to their personel.

Spag's got to be better pick than Fassel.

I don't see how Spags is the better option than Fassel for this team.

1. Fassel has experience not only as a head coach but as a head coach in NYC (well technically East Rutherford, but still), and he was successful

2. Fassel has experience developing young QBs, and he was successful

3. While Blache can help Spagnuolo out if he's hired, who will help Zorn out?

It's looking now like Spags or Fassel. Mariucci interview must have not gone well on Wednesday of last week????

Hope that whoever it is we can leverage our Great Roster, Strong Coaches, Great Hall of Fame Class, and move forward into the future with Campbell and CO. stepping up big.

I think it's a bit naive to think that Fassel is the answer for this team, and I never thought he was that great of a coach with the Giants. He also flopped miserably as the OC of the Ravens. Look, his greatest success with the Giants came with John Fox and Sean Payton on his staff which certainly helped make him look a lot better than he actually was.

The Ravens are cursed offensively. That happens to many offensive geniuses when they go to Baltimore. They've just never had the personnel.

Wasn't it Fassel who recognized the abilities of Fox and Peyton and hired them?

If he's such an offensive genius he would have found a way to make it work. The personnel argument is just plain obligatory. I don't doubt that he probably had some excellent advice and a lot of good fortune when he decided to hire Fox and Payton I wouldn't say that he was soley responsible for those hires.
