The New York Giants were rumored to be the leaders to get Matt Rhule as head coach.
This is why it was a surprise that Rhule spurred the Giants for the Carolina Panthers. He received a massive contract, 7 years, despite never coaching in the NFL.
Giant fans might not be happy with Rhule but they should look at the team. Reports are that Rhule offered the Giants a chance to convince him to get on a plane for his interview.
The Giants passed on matching the enormous deal. It was out of their range.
