The Giants aren’t waiting until the end of the season to fire head coach Ben McAdoo and general manager Jerry Reese, and fans couldn’t be happier.
With four games remaining in the season, the Giants parted ways with both McAdoo and Reese after what’s been a disastrous season for Big Blue.
The team is currently 2-10 on the year and is coming off a week where it made headlines around the league for benching franchise quarterback Eli Manning, ending his consecutive starts streak at 210 games.
There was no love lost for McAdoo and Reese amongst the fan base Monday. The team came into the season with Super Bowl expectations, but is now in line for a top draft pick.

Fans immediately shared their joy through a series of tweets, while also taking shots at McAdoo and Reese on their way out the door.
Defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo will take over duties as head coach, with assistant GM Kevin Abrams taking over as the interim GM, according to NFL Network.
The Giants will take on the division rival Cowboys this weekend in the first game without McAdoo as coach.
