Coughlin says he didn't know the flags were on Beckham

[Mr. Scot]

No, I'm not kidding.

Coughlin says he wasn't aware of Beckham penalties

Coughlin said he ultimately chose not to pull Beckham because he wanted the wideout out there to help the Giants win the game. He didn’t deviate from that point during a Monday conference call and added that he “wasn’t aware” that Beckham was the player continually drawing flags for his recklessness on the field.

That seems like a stretch since Coughlin also said that there were conversations with officials about the wideout during the game. Furthermore, wide receivers coach Sean Ryan “literally met [Beckham] at the sideline, walked and talked, on my instructions” in a wholly unsuccessful effort to calm Beckham down during the game.

And then there's this...

The subject of further discipline for Beckham also came up and Coughlin said he hoped that both Beckham and Norman would receive the same punishment.

[Argus Plexus]

That's simply not possible.

[Chaos]

Looks like dementia has arrived, right on schedule.

[Toolbox]

time to go if you are that senile tom.

[MtnJax]

Sounds like a coach who has no control over his team

[Sharkenstein]

Looks like obj gave him a dirty hit too.  Concussion protocol.

[Shadow]

This should totally be the final nail in the Coughlin.

[Darth Biscuit]

I can see how the head coach has enough going on that he doesn't see the details of a lot of plays from the sidelines, but he's either got his head in the sand and just intentionally ignoring what went on or just doesn't care... I suspect he doesn't care bc that's his #1 receiver and he needs 2 more wins to hope for the playoffs.

[PanthersATL]

A coach who isn't aware which player on his team was causing penalties? Bullpoo.

He certainly wasn't listening to "NY's Lite and Easy Favorites from the 60's and 70's" on that headset.

[tight lines]

this is all I have to say to tom coughlin about that

[Mr. Scot]

You'd think the refs yelling out "Offense, Number 13" would have given him a clue.

[caatfan]

The head coach doesn't know who's committing personal fouls? Maybe he needs another assistant to keep him informed about what's happening on the field. 

Ass: 'Hey coach. It was a TD!'

Coughlin: 'Which team?'

 

[PanthersFanNY]

They should get the same punishment? You can fug yourself Tom Coughlin. 

 

Nothing Norman did is close to the Beckham helmet missile to the face.

 

Seriously, fug yourself Coughlin.

[Riverboat Ron]

That's bs, Tom showed he cared more about his job than player safety and example. OBJ is a dirty sob that needs to be sat the rest of the season and Tom should never be known as a respected coach anymore.
