1- The New York Football Giants fired head coach Brian Daboll after nearly 4 years as their head coach. He amassed a 20-40-1 record including a playoff appearance, Coach of the Year award, and an 0-7 record against the Cowboys. We obviously don’t know right now who the next head coach will be, would I be On the Marc or Off the Marc for believing that his firing will have a domino effect and we could see Kevin Stefanski, Mike McDaniel, and potentially others fired before the season is over as well?
2- Speaking of Mike McDaniel, he addressed the media regarding the photo of him driving by the Elbo Room, a well-known Bills bar in Ft. Lauderdale. The “throwbacks of your”. It is amazing how clearly he is speaking now after a couple wins over the last three weeks. With the team outscoring opponents (Falcons, Ravens L, Bills) 70-51 over that span, am I On the Marc or Off the Marc for believing that McDaniel has his swagger back and maybe the Dolphins are a team to be worried about if they can get a streak going?
3- College GameDay is heading to Pitt as the Panthers will host Notre Dame. Pitt head coach Pat Narduzzi was asked if the game is a “must-win” for his team. The 103-10 he referenced first was the combined score that Notre Dame has beaten Pitt the last two times the teams met (58-7 in 2023 and 45-3 in 2024). It seems Narduzzi is more focused on the 2 ACC matchups the Panthers have to end the season as they try to make the ACC Championship game. Would I be On the Marc or Off the Marc for believing that this is a terrible message to put out there and he’s emphasizing what teams already believe in that out of conference games don’t matter?
All this and more on today's On the Marc / Off the Marc.
