There were calls for the Giants to part ways with defensive coordinator Shane Bowen after the team blew a 19-point lead in a loss to the Broncos last month, but Brian Daboll opted not to make any changes<\/a> to his coaching staff. <\/p>\n

The Giants did decide to make a coaching change after they blew another big fourth quarter lead against the Bears last Sunday. It was Daboll who was fired as the team\u2019s head coach, however, and Bowen remains on interim head coach Mike Kafka\u2019s staff as the team moves toward their Week 11 game against the Packers. <\/p>\n

On Thursday, Bowen said that he \u201ccan\u2019t say enough good things\u201d about Daboll as a leader and acknowledged the role that the defense played in the Giants\u2019 decision. <\/p>\n

\u201cThere\u2019s responsibility that falls on me<\/a>,\u201d Bowen said, via SNY. \u201cWe haven\u2019t been good enough defensively, particularly closing out games. Something we\u2019re working at, evaluating everything. everything. Scheme, personnel, different situations \u2014 what we can do to continue to improve and find ways to be at our best when it matters most. Find ways to put these players in positions to make plays at critical parts of the game when it matters most.\u201d<\/p>\n

Firing Daboll sets the stage for more sweeping changes to the staff in the offseason, so Bowen\u2019s remaining time with the team will likely be short whether his unit shows marked improvement or not. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"There were calls for the Giants to part ways with defensive coordinator Shane Bowen after the team blew…\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":376698,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[39],"tags":[1232,62,67,132,68],"class_list":{"0":"post-376697","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-nfl","8":"tag-nfl","9":"tag-sports","10":"tag-united-states","11":"tag-unitedstates","12":"tag-us"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/115544264941356250","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/376697","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=376697"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/376697\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/376698"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=376697"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=376697"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=376697"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
