The New York Giants are 1-7 and virtually out of playoff contention. Nevertheless, the team’s higher-ups have no plans of sacking Giants head coach Ben McAdoo, per Dan Graziano of ESPN, at least until after the season.

According to a source, the New York Giants do not plan to make any decisions on changes to the coaching staff or front office until after the season. The source says Giants ownership looks at recent anonymous comments by players as normal griping during a losing season, and those comments will not affect ownership's preference to let the season play out and judge it as a 16-game whole.

Apart from dealing with the Giants’ struggles on the field, McAdoo is also having headaches with a seemingly divided locker room that has some players speaking against him and some shielding him from getting most of the blame for what is essentially a lost season for the franchise.

Graziano’s report has made it obvious that Giants management is not going to make a cursory decision based on comments made by an unnamed player and would rather take a step back at the end of the year to look at the bigger picture before making a call.

Firing McAdoo right now is not a blanket solution that would answer the many problems of the Giants. After all, even if they had success under a new coach, it still wouldn't be enough to get them into the postseason.
