“If he’s hurt, or can get hurt, he should be a Giant,” Coughlin said Wednesday, after watching the latest meatwagon cart off members of the once (2007) vaunted defense. “Right now, we are trying to assemble the greatest list of excuses to suck in the history of the NFL. We have 289 right now, and we’re shooting for 500 by opening day. Fortunately, we have the Jets-Giants exhibition bloodbath coming up. That’s usually good for at least 10 broken bones. But, hey, it’s a fan fave.”
