I am starting to feel the same sentiment. Why he called a zone blitz at end the game where Obada drops in coverage to cover Barkley is beyond me. 

mmmmmmmm that's a name i haven't heard.... Obada....

I do find it funny that there's no thread about how bad Cam was. Cam's two picks were the equivalent of Luke getting trucked and ran over twice on two touchdowns: something that would have caused DOZENS of threads about how Luke was the #1 reason why we needed a 63 yard field goal to win. I'm not saying Cam deserves a ton of hate today, just that people like to criticize Luke to be edgy or different.

1. You missed it the Cam Newton sucks thread. 

2. It was just as stupid as you would think it would be.  Had gems such as "I would take Andrew Luck over Cam in a heartbeat" amongst others. 

3. Luke rarely gets criticized because he rarely play bad.  Most of his criticism has to deal with his health, which is valid based off the number of concussions. 

4. Just as Cam is the leader of the offense and gets a large majority of the blame when it underperforms .. Same happens on defense with Luke.

I sit in the Upper bowl. Granted its Row 4, but still plenty far away from the action that you sometimes miss the minutiae of the game. But the amount of holding committed by the Giants was blatant. It was criminal. You could not miss it, even from the Upper levels. I don't believe the Giant's had a single hold call against them.

I too sit in the upper level...front row.  I often use my binoculars because I like to zoom in on the line play.  I am amazed the number of holds I see that are not called.

eric washington has way to much faith in his front 4 and doesnt seem to have a good feel for the game. how many times you going to watch the giants throw slants?

Exactly, it is like Wilks and the secondary last year with all of that blitzing and man to man coverage.  Once these position coaches get promoted its like they feel the unit they used to specialize in are world beaters all of a sudden. Obada covering Barkley and the ten yard cushion was back in a big way yesterday.

We need to invest in a legit defensive coordinator for once and quit promoting the next man everytime. 

I mean, it's been successful up until this point.

He hasn't been the same since he left the field in the 2016 game vs the saints.

And a lot of their offense yesterday came on one trick play and a whole lot of one of the best receivers in the nfl making plays. 

ODB is really freaking good. Like they practice too.

Y’all aren’t about to get away with blaming a DC while Ron Rivera is the head coach.

LOOOOOOOOOL. This is fuging pathetic. Buncha red hats running around blaming Cam for everything from celebrations, to questioning his arm strength and his intelligence. You name it. When people try to ascertain the whys and what fors, the nuthugger term gets thrown about. That's before the racism ensues. 

Simply question if Luke's lost a step or isnt as effective and booooyyy the robe and hood defenders come flying out of the woodwork. Too many of these types feel comfortable with being openly ridiculous (trying to be civil here). Bitching about politics, but inject racial politics into everything. Even in being "fans" of the team. Silly and petulant af.

 

Wow this is a new one. I'm a MAGA/KKK dude if I point out that Cam's two picks were back breakers that would have been responsible for an L if not for Gano? I know there is a lot of racism when it comes to Cam criticism, but he doesn't get a pass because of poor passes because of his skin color either. Let's call it how we see it: the only two standouts from yesterday were a white kicker making kicks and a black safety making picks. A black quarterback and a white linebacker didn't exactly have games that they'll put on their highlight reel for their kids. We won a game that we would have lost 99% of the time and we should be grateful for that and get ready for Washington.

It looked like to me Eli was purposely avoiding throwing near Luke and instead picking on our slower to react dbs.

[Millioso7]

I haven’t seen the growth I expected from mayo.. maybe he’s trying to over compensate without TD next to him.. thank god he’s back..

Two words.

 

Star Lotulelei.

 

Our D-line has underperformed, and Poe isn't the space eater that Star was.  Add in Luke is having to play a little more conservatively (Davis suspension), and this is what you get.
