worst coach ever.... Sherman set the Pack back years with great draft picks like Ahmad Carroll, Donnell Washington, BJ Ryan (punter in the 3rd round???), Joey Thomas, Marviel Underwood, ect...

He couldn't coach or be a GM

Turner, winning in the AFC is not an easy thing to do. Means a lot more then the teams that the giants beat down the stretch. Beating Dallas means a lot but remember they didn't have T.O. and as much as it kills me to say it that was huge.
Turner should get coach of the season for getting the team dumped in his lap with most laughing and saying they just ruined the Chargers. Don't look now but they are one step closer to the big prize. And last time I checked they have already done better then last season. Turner gets coaching guru to date. Imagine when they beat the Patriots. Imagine that ... One never knows...

Coughlin hands down. Won two games being a decided under dog with his job on the line and his jobs' fate in the hands of a very untested kid.

I have been very impressed with the Giants' gameplans thus far. I don't know if they can pull it out @ Green Bay but if they do he will have easily done the toughest coaching job in the playoffs regardless of superbowl outcome.

NFC +13 or whatever it is right now is so golden it's not even funny. It'll be 8 or 9 around game time and you can go for a realistic middle there or play some teasers. The NFC +13 or whatever it is right now is just so damn golden it's not even funny.
