2. Garrett already familiar with NFC East

As many jokes as there would be over Garrett getting an interview with the Giants if it were to happen, at least the former Cowboys coach would benefit from already being familiar with playing in the NFC East.

Despite Philadelphia finishing on top of the division this past season, no one needs to explain just how much of a headache Dallas has been at times over the years.

And while Garrett may not have been able to get the Cowboys to the Super Bowl, he still stood in the way of the Eagles on numerous occasions.

Not only would this have the potential to continue if Garrett were to end up taking the job in New York as offensive coordinator, but also he would most likely feel some extra motivation with the thought of getting to face his former team in the Cowboys twice a year.

Rivalries tend to bring out the best in people sometimes in sports, and even though the Giants still have a bit of work to do talent wise before they’re on the same level as the Cowboys, plenty could always change moving forward.

For all the Eagles and the rest of the NFC East know, Garrett joining the Giants could be more problematic than originally expected due to his familiarity with the division alone.
