Former Giants great Tiki Barber has grown tired of criticism of Brian Daboll in recent weeks and wants to go to East Rutherford after some coordinators, assistants and staff are dissatisfied.
destroyed the theory that Daboll was to blame.
“I keep hearing this nonsense about, ‘This is a Brian Daboll accusation, Mike Kafka might not be here,'” Barber told WFAN this week.

“Same thing with (special teams coordinator Thomas) McGaughey.
I was frustrated that they didn’t know what the hell they were doing.
Is it Daboru’s fault or is it Daboru’s responsibility to hold him accountable for what he did?
