You're in the minority here. That was a great first impression. @DannyB I agree. If you watch it from the beginning you can see how he commands the room, connects with reporters, etc. I'm not even a Giants fan and I like him already. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DannyB Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 "Lemme tell you what I'm about! kay? I'm about old school smashmouth football! kay? I'm about a blue-collar mentality that represents the people of this town! alright? We're gonna punch our opponents in the face for 60 minutes! kay? Relentless! Competitive! Barf, fart, puke, diarrhea spray!" I can't believe this dude is for real. Somewhere Dan Campbell is furious that he didn't get Joe Judge's speech writer. Just livid. What did he say? Something like, "we're gonna play every play like it has a history and a life of it's own!" are you serious? He also pulled that lame "transparent appeal to the working class" by saying his players are gonna grind it out as hard in practice as the people of the New York area do at their job on a daily basis. Hahaha! Giants fans, can you even possibly understand how quickly this get insufferable if he's like this all the time, and your team is sitting at 1-5? Holy hell, I'm listening to this thing run. He talks about the players dressed properly for football, and stretching properly! I'm literally at a loss. I'm done, oh my god. To close, I'm going to present a running list of beaten-to-death cliches from the first two minutes of his PC. Aaaaand go... High standards, gave everything, sacrifice, old school mentality, *appeal to local area*, downhill, aggressive, punch in nose, relentless, fundamentally sound. Thank you goodnight. I weirdly hope he wins like 4 Super Bowls. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many kids do you think he hard-fouled in basketball during high school gym class? He certainly had his speech recited and ready to go, and he spoke well, so I think people are like, hypnotized by that or something. I mean after Gase just sat there tripping balls last year at his Jets introductory PC, maybe our standards are just real low. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I watched all the press conferences by the new hires this month and Judge's was the only one that held my interest all the way through. I care about what he can do for his team, not how he played high school basketball. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it came off much more genuine, while still being well spoken. I know that it checked several boxes from the list of football cliches as well, but it seemed to fit better in the flow of the broader speech. Hard to explain.

Rhule seems more like a preacher or motivational speaker. Which isn't a bad thing, just not my style. He radiates positive energy, and I can see how he must have inspired his college players. But if I'm a pro, Judge is the guy I'd "run through a wall for." (Had to throw one more cliche on top of the pile we've sat through lately.) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Judge comes across like a corny, terrible one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gmen Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 Judge has been working on his PhD in education. This obviously lends itself to coaching. I like his comments on how it’s incumbent on the coaches to get their point across, regardless on their players learning style. After seeing countless miscommunications in the secondary and Oline, this is a welcome change. PS - anyone that doesn’t like his speaking style deserves Pat Shurmur 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HTTRDynasty Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 Who are his coordinators? Haven’t heard anyone mentioned. These hires will be huge for this guy. I wonder if he has the connections to get decent ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if he has the connections to get decent ones. Mcgaughey has been confirmed by only one source to remain ST coordinator. Other than that, we have guesses and potential names, but that's it. It should come together next week hopefully. 7 hours ago, DannyB said: Haha, we have such different reads on it. I think Rhule comes off like a pretty average/decent motivational speaker. I think Judge comes across like a corny, terrible one. Rhule dances around the point a little too much for me, and his cadence comes off as super preachy. I prefer how to-the-point Judge is. I think it's a preference though; different guys are going to be motivated in different ways. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe_is_the_best Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 It’s a press conference for goodness sakes. What exactly did you expect? A detailed presentation on hand technique for beating the press? The pros & cons of Cover 2 against 5 WR sets? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBeast23 Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 I do believe it was a bit worked. He obviously had a plan and wanted to portray a different attitude and change the mindset. I think that was accomplished here. He’s a Belichick and Saban guy. How cliche can that be. “Do your job” “Practice hard” that’s just pretty much extensions of Saban and Belichick.
