2 Giant Goofballs: A NY Giants Podcast

Send us a text
John Harbaugh is officially the next head coach of the New York Giants, and his first public comments offered rare clarity about expectations, leadership structure, and where this franchise believes it can go immediately. Harbaugh addressed reporting lines directly, stating he reports to John Mara and emphasizing the responsibility that comes with leading one of the NFL’s most storied franchises.
He pushed back on narratives about sweeping organizational changes, explaining that while analytics will be strengthened, the Giants already possess a strong sports science infrastructure. Harbaugh explained that the longest part of negotiations centered on football operations alignment, stressing that shared vision mattered more than speed. Once alignment was achieved with ownership and Joe Schoen, the decision became clear.
Harbaugh spoke confidently about the roster, highlighting Jaxson Dart’s toughness, mindset, and impressive rookie season, and reinforcing belief in the team’s current foundation. He described Schoen as a collaborative partner and referenced a front-office model built on trust and debate until consensus is reached, even on draft day.
One of the most meaningful influences on his decision was former Giants coach Tom Coughlin, who encouraged Harbaugh throughout the process. Harbaugh also spoke emotionally about John Mara, calling it an honor to work alongside him and expressing deep respect for his leadership.
Harbaugh closed with a message to Giants fans, promising a team they can be proud of and reiterating his expectation to compete for the playoffs immediately. The Harbaugh era in New York has officially begun.

In this episode, Drew and Rob dive into what is now widely accepted across the NFL: John Harbaugh is coming to the New York Giants. With the head coach decision effectively settled, the focus shifts to the most important question that follows any major hire — the coaching staff.
The conversation centers on what type of coordinators make sense for Harbaugh in New York and how his past tendencies could shape the Giants’ next phase. Drew and Rob discuss the offensive direction Harbaugh may prefer, including familiar options like Todd Monken, as well as internal continuity and outside voices that could help modernize the offense depending on how the quarterback situation evolves.
On the defensive side, the discussion turns to whether Harbaugh leans on trusted connections from Baltimore or looks for a fresh defensive voice. Names like Anthony Weaver, Zach Orr, and other experienced defensive coaches are examined through the lens of philosophy, flexibility, and fit with the current Giants roster.
Rather than just naming candidates, the episode breaks down what Harbaugh typically values in his coordinators, how much autonomy they’re likely to have, and why these decisions will ultimately determine whether this hire delivers long-term success. Drew and Rob also address national skepticism, quarterback concerns, and why this moment represents a shift in how the Giants are operating as an organization.

In this solo episode, Drew breaks down the franchise-altering moment Giants fans have been waiting for as John Harbaugh prepares to take over as the next head coach of the New York Giants. After more than a decade of instability, dysfunction, and false starts, the Giants finally land a proven, Super Bowl–winning head coach with a track record of leadership, culture building, and sustained success.
Drew walks through how the deal came together, including late-night reporting that confirmed Harbaugh was ready to accept the Giants’ offer barring any setbacks. He explains why ownership’s full-court press mattered, how this process differed from past coaching searches, and why longtime Giants reporters are calling this the most franchise-altering moment in decades.
The episode also looks ahead to what comes next, including Harbaugh’s expected introductory press conference, the construction of his coaching staff, and which trusted assistants could follow him to East Rutherford. Drew explains why this hire instantly changes the perception of the Giants around the league and why, for the first time in years, hope feels real again for the fan base.

The New York Giants coaching search reached a major checkpoint today as John Harbaugh made his first in-person visit to another team, meeting directly at the Giants’ facility. While this visit is being classified as a formal interview, it comes after weeks of extensive communication between Harbaugh and Giants leadership, making this meeting far more significant than a routine introductory conversation.
In this segment, we break down why the timing of Harbaugh’s visit matters so much for the Giants, especially with New York currently positioned as the only team able to make a coaching hire today. We discuss how that timing could impact leverage, decision-making, and whether this visit accelerates the process or simply confirms that multiple meetings are still ahead.
We also examine how other teams factor into the picture, including the Titans and Falcons, and why many league insiders still believe Harbaugh planned to hear multiple options before making a final decision. From contract expectations to staff considerations, this discussion focuses on what realistically happens next rather than speculation about an immediate outcome.
Beyond the Giants, the segment places this visit within the broader context of a rapidly shifting NFL coaching landscape. Long-tenured head coaches, coordinator movement, and interview requests around the league are reshaping expectations for the upcoming season, and the Giants’ situation sits right at the center of it.
This is the audio from yesterday morning’s live show.
