Browns just gave the Giants the game plan to destroy our defense, on the opposite side they shut Henry down so CMC and Foreman probably aren't gonna go off. Gonna be their pass rush vs our WR's, and they didn't even have their starting DE's active on Sunday

But who are their DEs? I know they have Kayvon but I don’t think they have anyone up to Garrett or Clowney talet.

New guy Kayvon who was a top 5 pick, and Ojulari who is more of a Reddick type that had 8 sacks in his rookie year last year. Not exactly Garrett and Clowney but not scrubs

Of course we can beat the Giants.  In theory, we could beat the Bills.  The NFL works that way.  Add that while they are in the same state (barely), the Giants are not the Bills.

The challenge is that based solely on last week, the Giants put up a lot of yards on the ground and we gave up a lot of yards on the ground.  They gained 238 yards at 7..4 a carry, and even if we remove the 68 yard run, that is still 170 yards and almost a 5.5 yard clip.  We gave up 5.6 yards a pop over 39 carries.  Depending on your outlook, those things either don't mesh well or mesh perfectly.

The other problem is while the Giants didn't remind anybody of Air Coryell, they were efficient in the passing game.  If we don't generate some pressure on the QB, they may be efficient again.

They are far from unbeatable, but we are going to have to step up especially on the defensive side.  It's either that or turn it into a track meet early.  We certainly can not afford another start where the offense is inert.  Given the defensive challenges, the offense is going to have to hold their own.

Finally, when they had the chance with a tad over a minute left, they went for the win, big time (going for 2 after a TD brought them within 1).  If it comes down to a test of nerve late, we are probably screwed.

      NHL Olympics Thread (Or just Olympics in general)

      By Stumpy · Posted

      Dude, I think I might be having Jarvy withdrawals... I ripped the sleeves off of all of my t-shirts in my sleep last night. Every bite of my Alpha-Bita cereal spelled Seth, this morning. And, I took 7 naps before lunch. I'm losing it guys! Jarvy's Jaunty Band of Jaggoffs are getting more play than he is... smh Team Canada doesn't treasure Jarvis the way he deserves. He should take his band down to Liechtenstein, get a bag of passports, and start his own Olympic team! The raw animal magnetism of Jarvilicious will bring in a handful of NHLers on its own. And, since the IOC believes in collective punishment, he could have his pick of the rookies. Then, just fill out the rest of the roster with the maple blooded great white northerners who couldn't make the top squad. Can't trust this assembled awesomery to just any old Liechtensteinien with a clipboard and a whistle. Gotta bring in a legend worthy of this gold medal gambit. A hockey HOFer with the balls to buck the system and the aura to match our maverick. Huere geil, Vaduz!!! 2030 Gold Medal guaranteed!

      NFLTR: Panthers Offseason:Team Needs, pending free agents, draft picks

      Tennessee isn't trading a QB on a 2nd round contract that has starting experience.  That's bad business.

      OT is the top priority as it is both an immediate and future need.  I wouldn't be past trading up slightly to get the guy we want.  You need that rookie contract right now.  Icky is a dead 17.5 million for the season.  Morton is 20+ mil for the season, Hunt is 20+ mil for the season.  There needs to be forward thinking regarding the future.   Caleb Lomu is a left Tackle, he's a solid prospect, he may be the best pick for us now and in the future.  I would seriously consider cutting Hunt after 2026, and let Lomu and Icky fight for the LT job, loser moves inside.  Icky's future may be at guard after this injury anyway.  If Damien Lewis keeps up his level of play he will need to be paid sooner rather than later.  Yosh and BC can be our top two depth OL at an affordable price.  You will need to look at OT again in 2027. Getting an EDGE for the sake of getting an EDGE outside of the top 10 is pretty risky.  I wouldn't be against eyeing someone like Cashius Howell, Derrick Moore, or TJ Parker in the 2nd (even if we trade a future pick to move up) or DDS in the third. I'd love to see us try to sign both Leo Chenal and Matt Millano in FA.   Chenal for the blitzing element we are missing from our LB corps and Millano for his elite coverage.  They could both work in tandem.  Remember, our FO has deep ties to both KC and Buffalo. I love thinking about the draft, but until Free Agency hits, we are clueless.  Looking at the strength of FA and the draft, OL is priority #1, LB #2, and EDGE #3.  We know what happens to Bryce when protection falls apart.
