BULLSHIT! Quit making excuses....he got trucked, I said it last night, and I'll say it till the day I die.

I don't care if he just came out of the little boy's room, pulling his drawers up.....he got trucked. You play football, I don't wanna hear this "he wasn't set" crap!!!

Bradshaw was 20 yards away when the play began....so if he couldn't prepare by then......I mean really...come on. Was off balance, wasn't ready????

Neither was I then if that's the case.

:ihih:

Godfrey looked to be more concerned with stripping the ball inside the 10 yard line than trying to make a tackle. The Giants had an excellent play call and execution against the front seven on that play, they all got whooped before it made it into the secondary. It was a cross block/trap that took out the OLB responsible for that gap.

Meeks has been preaching his ball stripping. It didn't seem to work too well in the game, and I think he has some re-teaching to do about going for the tackle first when a play nears the goal line. If you watch the replay, Godfrey goes for a half strip/half tackle, Gamble is coming off a block trying to make a diving tackle and gets trucked and then Harris is coming up with body language to go for another strip at the 2 yard line. Once Gamble misses, you can see Harris go into "pure tackle" mode, but it is too late and he doesn't even touch him until he's in the end zone. If he's teaching them to strip instead of tackle at the two yard line it's inexcusable in my book, but I think it's just a case of players learning a new system. Still, I think it would be understood that the priority should shift to stopping the runner first as a player approaches the end zone.

      Canales is holding us back

      By RumHam · Posted

      NEVER FORGET!!!!   Canales was on no one's radar. Tepper couldn't get anyone to come here. He was all in on Ben Johnson. Nobody wants to work with Tepper, however Canales tenure may prove important for the next guy. This guy still has no idea what he's doing.

      Going for it instead of leading by two scores in the 4th

      By CPantherKing · Posted

      The 4th down play was poor execution by Chuba. He didn't want to get physical like Rico and cut North South to lean on his blocks from Tremble and Ekwonu for half a yard. Also, the 3rd down play before that Bryce audibled out to a QB run and almost got the 1st down was on Chuba for not knowing the play call leading to poor execution. You can see Chuba's confusion when Bryce had to realign him. Then Chuba thought he was getting the handoff and was slow to develop his double team on the DE with Tremble. Then Chuba hesitated on pushing the block and just ran to the sideline making Bryce have to loop around him. This pulled the DE away from Tremble forcing Chuba to chip on the DE late and leaving the safety as a free defender. Chuba was suppose to double down on the DE to let Tremble peel off to the safety. This allows Bryce to set up his run to the inside or outside after the safety commits. You can also see Tremble walk over to talk to Chuba after the play and Chuba shrugs which tells me he didn't know what to do. The audible would have worked on 3rd and the dive would have worked on 4th. The plays were good calls and drawn up well. The question is why was Chuba unprepared for those plays in two critical back to back plays? I like Chuba as a 1st down RB and passing downs, but I have always seen him lacking the power and vision to be a short yardage power back. Chuba didn't come prepared for the Saints game or he was thrown into a position at the 3 spot that he was never prepared for.

      NFL admits the TMac catch should not have been overturned

      By Diehardpanth02 · Posted

      Yeah man, that was a catch. I like to imagine the game isn’t rigged but it’s well known sports betting is ruining the sport. Unfortunately, most coaches plan for 3 phases of the game. But there is really 4, offense, defense, special teams, and special occasions. on special occasions the refs can influence the game, leaving you in positions your actively planning to stay out of and how you respond in those special occasions make or break the game. Other times it’s other reasons. But I like to hope that the right team, or right player can extend past those types of setbacks and still find a way. anywho, probably a pipe dream. But it’s how I see it.
