Giants reuniting with Antonio Pierce is compelling possibility — but there’s a big problem

Giants reuniting with Antonio Pierce is compelling possibility — but there’s a big problem

The idea came to mind the moment it was announced that Antonio Pierce was fired by the Raiders after his first full season as the head coach.

Bring AP back to the Giants. Make him the new defensive coordinator.

The fact that the position is not open, that Shane Bowen just completed his first season running the Giants defense, did not matter much to those who wanted to make the connection and reunite Pierce with the franchise that benefited greatly from having him play middle linebacker for them.

The fact Pierce, 46, has surprisingly meager credentials on his résumé when it comes to actually running a defense did not matter much to those who are rabid with the thought of getting rid of Bowen and replacing him with a popular and charismatic member of the cherished 2007 Super Bowl championship team.
