What NFL’s history of interim coaches says about Mike Kafka’s Giants fate
NY Post
With every loss by the Giants, interim head coach Mike Kafka is moving further away from sharing company with the likes of Jason Garrett and Doug Marrone.
It still is possible he joins the rarefied air of Anthony Lynn or Dick Jauron come January’s hiring cycle, but his best-case scenario might be that time shines on him again down the road as it did for Dan Campbell.
The Giants probably wouldn’t mind if he reverted to his old responsibilities, like Terry Robiskie or John Fassel, but Kafka might prefer the clean break afforded to Todd Bowles, Perry Fewell and Pat Shurmur.
