Is jacobs playing??

anyone see any confirmation that he is playing? other than him telling the media that he is. Observer lists him as questionable - probably a game time decision. If that is the case, and he is questionable on Friday/Saturday, then you gotta wonder IF he can make the cuts on his sore knee and just how effective he will be.

Go PANTHERS!

Him playing makes them a better team, (obviously) but I think we can handle him just like we have other elite running backs this year. With him in there, even if he's not 100% helps little Eli out immensely. He's kinda like Jake in the fact he needs the play action to be most effective.

Torn PCL?

quote from Dec 13th prior to Cowboys game from Giants.com

''Both Jacobs and coach Tom Coughlin have been vague on exactly what the problem is, Multiple sources yesterday said that Jacobs has a very lightly damaged posterior cruciate ligament in his left knee. It is not expected that he will require offseason surgery; however, the Giants are doing everything possible to make sure the injury doesn't get worse. Thus, the cautious approach for Dallas Week.''

A person close to Jacobs said, "The knee is sore but the injury is not that serious, and Jacobs should be fine when they need him this season."

I think if Jacobs plays it will be mainly for emotional reasons. If he is there it will be an emotional lift for the Giants. I believe he could get 10 carries but probably less. Cause the Giants are not dumb, they know they can go on the road and win the Super Bowl.

Put it this way, if they risk hurting Jacobs for the playoffs they would be stupid. They have a better chance of winning the Super Bowl with a healthy Brandon Jacobs on the road, then they do with a hurt Jacobs at home.

    • I mean, I think you're being a little hyperbolic with the last statement, but point taken. 
    • Pass rush was the biggest issue in tonight’s game, and we were tied for 28th in sacks this season. That is a major area of need that has to get addressed this offseason. I just don’t see a path where there’s a game changing QB you can bring in with where we are drafting and quality of veterans that will be available. We certainly can do better than Dalton as a backup, and should ideally have a developmental guy  (perhaps a day 3 pick this year). We have bryce for one more year on a reasonable contract and then I think 2027 is the year that you reset that position (unless he massively improves).
    • Agreed, honestly basically bringing this group back as a healthy unit would be alright.  Brady Christensen should be resigned to a very reasonable deal with him recovering from the Achilles.  Atleast we're alright at 4 of our 5 spots with Lewis, Mays, Hunt, and Moton, Nijman was decent.  While if we can snag a deal on someone, take a stab, however our resources need to go to Linebacker, Pass Rush and a real option outside Tmac (coker is amazing, but if we can get someone who isnt braindead opposite Tmac, we can fully unleash Coker AND Tmacs full potential, cant move him into the slot if racoon boy is out there licking doorknobs).
