Article about the Giants

It looks as if their players don't really seem worried about there loss against the cowboys. The have a flippant attitude about losing 2 in a row. Like it won't happen. And once again, not one mention about the big game sunday night against us... Unbelievable!!

You could see the visual, cringing, familiar effects all over the face of always cautious, rarely optimistic head coach Tom Coughlin. He's a man who doesn't seem to take anything for granted. He doesn't care that his New York Giants are reigning Super Bowl champions, and pays no attention to those who possess that "been-there, done-that" mentality for his team as a perfect excuse for their nonchalance. Instead, he's not shy about telling anyone, "This is not a good time for us to be playing this way. I'm very concerned."

Give him credit for being a lone ranger.

Barely anyone else inside the Giants' locker room seemed worried at all following their 20-8 loss to the host Dallas Cowboys on Sunday night.

Not Jerry Reese, the team's general manager. Not Antonio Pierce, wearing the almost obligatory smirk on his face, as if to say, "Go ahead! Doubt us again!" Not even Amani Toomer, the veteran wideout who's probably suffered more than anyone else these past two weeks -- outside of quarterback Eli Manning -- since Toomer's been asked to pick up the slack in the absence of suspended wideout Plaxico Burress.

    • They can get film of all the games? Every team? Wow! Who knew… Our games with them are big examples of why they are in  the CB market so hard.   It is the study they do getting ready for the games.  Preparing to play against is a little different than just analyzing film in scout mode. Deeper dive. Then you are analyzing post game too.  This goes to why players often change teams but stay in the division. The opponents know each other on a higher level.  Plus if you lost to us, you used to get fired. Now you have to trade your first round pick. Moving up on the world. 
    • I honestly can’t believe this team’s turnaround this season. It’s surreal. Figured healthy we’d be fringe playoffs and with another lottery pick could finally turn the corner, but we don’t even need that. This group is ready. We haven’t played remotely well the last 5 games and yet still blew out 5 bad teams by 16+ each game like it was casual practice. We had a few solid teams with Kemba and Big Al but this is easily our best group since the original Hornets moved to NO. Man, what a shift in culture this new ownership group and front office has brought. So damn happy to see it after years of suffering and consistently meaningless games in this stretch of previous seasons.   Only 2.5 games out of the 6 seed, although Miami, Atlanta and Orlando have been playing well too. Gonna be a fun final stretch, hopefully we can get a top 8 seed at the very least. Celtics tomorrow will be a good test. Would be huge to keep the road winning streak up against a very hot top team on the 2nd half of a back to back. We’ve played Boston pretty well the last few years with much of this same group despite sucking so I do feel pretty good about it. Kon is due for a huge game coming off a few cold shooting games (although despite the poor shooting he’s been contributing well with defense, assists and rebounds).
    • It amazes me how underrated Horn has become after he finally was able to stay on the field. Sure last year wasn’t perfect but he was still a huge reason for our rebound defensively and I’d say he’s easily a top 10 corner. You don’t want to see Mike Jackson as our top corner. Any player is available for the right price but I’d be extremely hesitant to move Horn even for a big haul from LA.
