Cochlin began his 12 -year stay with the Giants in 2004. The players struggled to take care of his style of hard and high intensity coaching in the first two years.
He accumulated a 25-23 file, including a season of 11-5 in 2005 which ended with a 23-0 defeat in the Wild Card match. After an 8-8 season in 2006, many fans and players wanted him to disappear.
In 2007, he turned the trend by leading the giants to one of the greatest upheavals in the history of the NFL, beating the undefeated patriots of New England in the Super Bowl XLII. But Judy played an influential role in the locker room.
While Coughlin was still the same old coach style, Judy took out the family side of him. She also kissed each player as if they were her own family.
“This is the reason why we came to this point,” said Tom Giants.com of his deceased wife. “She prevented me from being a screaming maniac when things didn’t go as I wanted.”
Cughlin would again lead Big Blue to a victory for the Super Bowl XLVI over the Patriots. However, tensions increased to East Rutherford during the following seasons. The team missed the playoffs in the following three seasons, leading from Cughlin after the 2015 season
The 69-year-old man left New York with a 102-90 (.531), the second largest number of victories in the history of the franchise behind Steve Owen, who led the team from 1930 to 1953.
Coughlin would spend the next three seasons as vice-president of Jacksonville Jaguars football operations. He previously spent eight seasons as a team of the team from 1995 to 2002 and helped rebuild a list of Jaguars who reached the AFC championship match
