I&#8217;d always said the games in 1991 versus San Fran and Buffalo were the best the back-to-back games for a Giant fan to experience. This 2007 team topped it with back-to-back-to back games in Dallas, Green Bay, and finally versus New England.

This basically was a no-brainer. Obviously he wants to eventually be a head coach, but the Redskins&#8217; job is a one-way ticket to disaster. An over-meddling owner and a team with huge salary cap issues, but most importantly to me, a situation where his primary assistants were already hired. With the Giants, he stays in a spot he&#8217;s comfortable and can continue to grow. Throw in being the highest paid coordinator at $2 million\/year (kudos to the Giants for that) isn&#8217;t all that bad either! There will always be head coaching vacancies each year and certainly ones much more attractive than Washington&#8217;s.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The official date is actually 01\/28\/2007 but, still, what a year!
