Ben McAdoo’s Suit: 8 Suits Ben McAdoo Should Wear, Plus 9 He Shouldn’t
By Neal Lynch
Ever since Ben McAdoo addressed the press in an over-sized suit, designers have been lining up around the blocking sled to help out the new head coach of New York Giants. Here are some suggestions for Coach McAdoo to up his suit game:
Suits McAdoo should wear…
Batman’s Armored Suit from Batman v. Superman: DoJ
The Dark Knight’s suit went from spandex in the ’60s to the suit that immobilized the neck in Tim Burton’s versions to bat nipples. Then Chris Nolan came around and we got some more tactical outfits. But, the best of them all might be the one Ben Affleck will wear in Batman vs. Superman: Dawn of Justice. And, I’m not talking about the one that makes Affleck look like a WWE wrestler, I’m talking about the armored suit he dons to take on the Man of Steel. Put McAdoo in that and the security he’ll feel will instill confidence in his play-calling.
Iron Man’s Hulk-Buster suit from Avengers: Age of Ultron
Iron Man’s suit is so boss, the U.S. Military is looking to develop similar suits for their troops. But, the Hulkbuster suit worn by Tony Stark to “sedate” Bruce Banner’s angry side might top Batman’s armored suit. The debates will rage on about who’s tougher: Superman or Hulk, but when you need like 6 feet of armor just to absorb hits, you probably have to give the edge to Iron Man. McAdoo’s confidence would be bolstered in the Batman suit, but in the Hulk-buster suit, you’d see that confidence go viral.
Ron Burgundy’s suit from Anchorman
What better way for Ben McAdoo to bring Big Blue back to the “Golden Age” of the 1980s than by sporting an ’80s wardrobe. Ben’s already got the ‘stache, give him a “handsome beast” makeover. The only downside would be the non-stop chuckling.
James Bond’s suit
Much like Batman’s suit, James Bond’s usually has a trick or two up its sleeve. It would be nice to see some more trick plays out of McAdoo. Get a little nuts with Odell Beckham and Victor Cruz. Really explore the space.
Scarface’s suit
Tony Montana’s suit was so powerful, he honestly thought he could shoot his way out of his own mansion against hundreds of armed thugs. And, in no way was aided by anything else.
Exoskeleton suit from Edge of Tomorrow
Endless lives? Seemed Tom Coughlin was always on the hot seat and survived. Will McAdoo follow in his footsteps to virtual coaching immortality? We’ll see how many second chances McAdoo gets. And now that the Buffalo Bills hired the first full-time female coach, I fully advocate getting Emily Blunt on board as the Giants new strength and conditioning coach.
Hazmat Suit from Breaking Bad
Ben McAdoo is dealing with a very potent and volatile substance in Odell Beckham, Jr. Now, all the head coach needs is his Jesse.
Justin Timberlake’s Suit and Tie
Let Ben show you a few things. Show off that new offense he brought.
