New York Giants head coach Joe Judge is either overly confident, has his head in the sand, or is a liar, as he said he believes that the organization is headed in the right direction following his team’s 29-3 drubbing at the hands of the lowly Chicago Bears on Sunday afternoon.
Judge delivered a nearly 12-minute rant after he was asked why fans should have faith the once-proud franchise will get things going again.
“This ain’t a team that is having fistfights on the sidelines,” he said. “This ain’t some clown show organization or something else. You talk about the foundation built. The toughest thing to change in a team, in a club, is the way people think. You understand that? That is the toughest thing. You can get new players. You can have your damn locker room all you want. You have to change how people think. You have to change how they f—ing believe in what you’re doing. And they have to trust the process. And that is a lot easier said than done when they’re looking up right now and you’ve got one game left and the most you can win is five this season.
“But I guarantee you this: Those men are going to walk in Wednesday and be ready to roll. We’re going to practice hard on Wednesday, practice hard on Thursday and Friday. And we’re going to play for each other when we get on the field next week.”

The Giants (4-12) have dropped five straight games and have now lost at least 10 games in five straight seasons and 12 games in three of the past five.
The team amassed minus-10 net yards passing against the Bears (6-10), which served as the lowest total by any team since the 1998 Chargers when Ryan Leaf went 1-of-15 for 4 yards and 23 yards lost on sacks.
“Every fan has a right to boo my ass out of the stadium,” he said. “Got that? That don’t bother me. I don’t want it. I don’t think anyone wants to get booed. But the reality of it, that’s all right. The fans are every bit right to ask what you’re asking.”
