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.

      I used to think Juan was a Zod alt. Agree he's a great poster.

      2026 Charlotte Hornets

      By frankw · Posted

      Hawks said nah we good and sent him to the shadow realm aka the Wizards. Cold blooded. I mean they're 2-2 in a series with a young up and coming Knicks team largely through 34 year old CJ McCollum. Even if they ultimately lose the series at least they are there and have something to build on. I think Hornets fans are just beaten down and lack the objectivity to assess the situation. They think we are going to get so much worse if and when we finally change gears. Worse how? We've already been a lottery team for years now. We've already been looking to win our first playoff series in about a quarter century. We already can't get past the play in and in failing to do so we have completely embarrassed ourselves twice looking like we don't even belong. Honestly there is absolutely no excuse for a team like the Magic to be more competitive and successful than us in the playoffs. Absolutely disgusting. But that's just me. I was fuging lit when we got the Hornets back in Charlotte but that is old old news. It's time for these boys to get into a playoff series. Enough is enough. If they can't do it for 2026-27 then they need to make wholesale changes regardless.

      That's it. How do you feel about this draft class.

      By outlaw4 · Posted

      Not one single pick that is asking me why we drafted a guy in the first place. It was a guy we needed and/or a guy that had certain traits making them stand out. Best of all, I feel everyone we drafted are capable of stepping onto the field this year and have a meaningful role (even Kuwatch on special teams). Obviously, nothing is guaranteed but I'm not seeing any huge flags on guys because they're risky projects or massive overreaches.
