Tom Coughlin: "It hasn't been easy"

New York Giants head coach Tom Coughlin has refused to blame his offensive coaches for his side's display against the Seattle Seahawks.

The Giants failed to score any point in their 23-point defeat and quarterback Eli Manning threw five interceptions, as offensive coordinator Kevin Gilbride came under scrutiny after the game from reporters.

Coughlin said in his press conference: "You know, certainly it hasn't been a connect all the dots from Day One type of a year, but Kevin's a pro, he's been around, he's done this a long time. We've tried to find ways to take advantage of things. It hasn't been easy."

The Giants are 5-9 in their campaign with just two weeks to go in the regular season.
