"This Was a Bad Move": Colin Cowherd Says Giants Panicked Hiring Joe Judge

Colin Cowherd: “I think the Giants panicked and I think Dave Gettleman panicked. This is a bad move to me… New York City is rich, it’s powerful, it’s the number one media market, and for that it creates panic, overspending, overreaching, and insanity. This guy is an assistant and is not ready to be a head coach of the New York Giants. It’s a reach. I’m not saying he doesn’t have talent, but Bill Belichick’s coaching tree has mostly been a disaster. Why? Proximity to genius doesn’t equal genius.” (Full Video Above)

Listen to Colin Cowherd explain why he wasn’t too thrilled with the New York Giants’ unanticipated hiring of New England Patriots wide receivers coach Joe Judge.

Colin says it seemed like a massive whiff and a ‘panic move’ in response to the Carolina Panthers hiring highly coveted Baylor head coach Matt Rhule, who the Giants had been closely targeting for weeks, if not months.

Judge is a 38-year-old former special teams assistant under Nick Saban at Alabama, and had been a special teams coordinator and wide receivers coach under Bill Belichick since 2012.

Check out the video above as Colin details why it was a ‘bad move’, and why it could be another classic case of a former Belichick assistant failing as a head coach.
