The New York Giants are in disarray and could be looking at a full reset in the offseason. They have already parted ways with quarterback Daniel Jones, who was released last week and has since signed with the Minnesota Vikings, and could fire head coach Brian Daboll.
Given how their campaign has gone, general manager Joe Schoen is also presumably on the hot seat, suggesting the franchise could start afresh in the offseason.
If the Giants do clean the house, the hosts of the Pardon My Take podcast suggested that the team should sign Aaron Rodgers to be the new starting quarterback and Bill Belichick as the head coach.

Fans on social media were intrigued about the prospect, but most felt it would fail miserably.
"This would be a nightmare," one fan said.
"Please. Delete," one fan pleaded.
"What is that, the Senior Circuit?" another fan quipped.
While Giants fans were opposed to the idea, others are keen on seeing it happen:
"The content alone makes me want this so bad." - Said @CmoneyMeyer
"They would both go to ownership demanding the other get fired within the first week of working together." - Predicted @jakeisapersonik
"This clown show would be so worth the admission price." - Wrote @NFLEnthusiast1
Aaron Rodgers to leave Jets? QB's stance on future with franchise
Hiring Bill Belichick won't be a complicated process for the Giants as the six-time Super Bowl-winning head coach is currently a free agent. However, signing Aaron Rodgers could be tricky, considering he still has multiple years left on his deal with the Jets.
After the team fired general manager Joe Douglas, rumors swirled that the veteran quarterback wasn't keen on playing for them in 2025.
However, he shot down those reports during an appearance on the Pat McAfee podcast last week. Rodgers said:
"As far as my future goes, I haven't told anybody in my life that I want to play in 2025 and not on the Jets," Rodgers said. "So that's 100 percent false. I actually said the opposite.
"I said, I'm going to wait and see what happens at the end of the season. and if they want me back, what happens with (interim HC Jeff Ulbrich), what happens with the offensive staff, and obviously, the GM at the time."
The four-time MVP is keen on continuing to play for the Jets but could consider his options if the team decides to part ways with him. It remains to be seen whether the Giants get an opportunity to sign him as a free agent in the upcoming offseason.
