The Giants defense

Last year they fired their DC after the season and hired Perry Fewell from Buffalo. This is the guy who ran the defense that held the Panthers to 9 points last year (2 on a safety). You could argue that we blew it against the Bills because we threw twice as much as we ran, but his defense still worked well against us.

Fewell is a Coughlin guy who's big on the Tampa 2. It looks like he's running it again in New York, although he's throwing different looks out there to disguise the coverages. If he is, do you think we'll actually run it as much as we pass this time? That's how you attack a Tampa 2, right?

If he's not running it up there, what sort of defense are they using?

Two words Jake Dellhomme.

You realize even with the 4 ints we had over 450 yards of offense vs his defense? he doesn't scare me.

they had the 30th ranked rushing defense in the NFL last year...and ended with the 2nd ranked passing D...and we went in with the game plan of throwing the ball...on one of the worst ranked rushing Ds...thats what happened...retarded game planning and jake delhomme...he doesn't scare me one bit if we stick to what we are...a running team

I didn't see the bills vs panther game. Perry's defense is supposed to be a "bend, but don't break" defense that forces turnovers.

seems like a whole lot of bending without breaking.

not really, jakes wildly inaccurate passes were more to blame... and he was tossing ints like beads at Marni gras last year.

not too worried about their defense. even if it proves to be pretty decent eventually, it's a new system being brought in by a new DC. sound familiar? how long did it take to catch on here?

anyway, they aren't as good as the 4 defenses we played in preseason (though you might make an argument they are on the same level as the titans).

i feel better about our offenses chances because of that and because we will have done some actual game planning.

the good thing about this is even if they end up being top ten at the end of the year it's a new scheme and they will make mistakes at first

the much heralded Billy Spagnuolo even gave up something like 70 points on defense the first two weeks his first season at DC due to all the wrinkles in the new system

Jake threw three interceptions, all of which came early on drives. Kenny Moore fumbled. We missed two field goals. And we passed 44 times.

Two points here:

First, you can blame Jake Delhomme for all our problems last year, and a lot of you will, or you can look at the bigger picture. Williams averaged 5.6 yards per carry, but only got 16 of them. Stewart got 7 carries. We punted the ball eight times, and two of our drives ended on downs (one was at the half).

Second, Jake is no longer here. The Giants have different personnel. Are they suited to the Tampa-2? Who's their MLB? What are their DTs like?

Do people still discuss football on this forum, or is it all about bashing players and coaches?

      I honestly don’t think he ever will change.  He couldn’t punch his way out of this wet paper bag he created with scissors in his hands.  I think back to the early takes on Jimmy Haslem, the Browns owner.  For that first few years, he couldn’t get out of his own way.  Same poo.  The fans were miserable and were worried he was exactly who David Tepper is now…  and then Haslem took a step back.  He hired football guys and let them make the decisions.  And something clicked…  now, they’ve done some really dumbass stuff since, but they started drafting some gems, developing them, and even went to the playoffs a few years.  Led by Baker, they came damn close for beating the Chiefs in the playoffs.  But I could never see Tepper doing any of that.  He is so damn egotistical and stubborn.  Haslem wasn’t pulling up to restaurants and demanding people change critical signs of him.  Haslem wasn’t throwing drinks on the poors heckling him.  Haslem wasn’t getting in broadcasts with his poo eating grin and calling fans basement dwellers.  He was willing to take a step back and learn.  At minimum, Tepper should’ve been at that stage two or three years in.  And then he forces the Bryce pick.  And then he makes us see it through for a minimum of three years.  It’s clear he still thinks he knows more than anyone else…  and for that reason, this will not turn around under Tepper.  Our only hope is he sells, and he won’t.  He would move the team before he had to sell it just to stick it to this fanbase for telling him about himself.  He’s a fuging douche.  And sadly, because all of the decisions have been and will be so bad from too top to bottom, we won’t ever even accidentally back into the playoffs because we will never have the talent or coaching.  It is fuging groundhogs day for misery as a Panthers fan.
