about 30 minutes ago...

the giants have won three superbowls, two of which they started the season 0-2 so it is foolish to have so many knee jerk negative threads.

I was on the 104 section so I had a good view, but didn't get a lot of angles and replays like on TV at home, but this is what I thought...

1. Beason played very well, was in on lot of tackles. bradshaw made him look really bad on one run, but it was only like a 4 yard game so no big deal.

2. Steve Smith (Car) looked pretty explosive, but dropped two relatively easy passes. I can see how he may not get a lot of catches, but have a lot of tds, yards.

3. Eli played great, looked like three catchable passes that got picked off. he had a few bad throws to nicks in coverage early and that pass to bradshaw near the goalline was bad, Everyone here was talking about bashing eli's head in, but he is an above average qb--it isn't always about stats.

4. Where was the running game? either team? 11 yards for Stewart, almost 200 less than last game and he was my #1 rb on my fantasy team.

Bradshaw got going a little near the end and Jacobs put a little spark in the middle of the game.

5. Nicks - was that the worst 3 td performance ever? we'll take it, I wore his shirt. Sat close to a pretty lady with a daughter, both had nick's jersey and were there alone, I wonder if that was his gf and daughter?

6. Our special teams sucked, especially our coverage teams. 14 net yards on punt coverage. Matt Dodge was rumored to be hyperventilating on the sidelines, good thing he isn't the field goal kicker

7 DL looked good. Barry Cofield made two huge plays in a row. Three sacks from the right ends. Tuck looked really good, the stats line on nfl.com doesn't tell the story.

8. Penalties killed the giants, panthers were very undisciplined too.

9. I hope Kevin Boss and Matt Moore are okay.

10. Until we meet again:

thanks for the positive review. Giants are a good team, and they're my pick for the NFC East(Dallas is overrated, Eagles are in a rebuilding year sort of, and Redskins will just be average.) Giants made 2nd half adjustments, and the Panthers didn't.

were you able to see what was going on with Matt Moore on the sidelines towards the end of the game?

no, we were in the endzone and osi got the sack right in front of us, so we didn't have a good view of the sidelines. I heard he was taken to the hospital and won't make it back with the team. He was throwing up on the sidelines which is a sign of a concussion.

With the boss injury, we didn't even know he got hit on the play, we thought he just fell over the defender and much have hurt his knee/ankle, etc...

According to Darin Gantt on Twitter, Moore did make it back with the team and it was a concussion.

NO, as I'm sure LBI will agree, the Giants are not a very good team! They are maybe an 8-8 team that crushed what most people here thought was a 10-6 team! Thanks to Fox's play calling and Matt Moore, a Bad team beat a really bad team, nothing more!

I think the giants are going to be a very good team, what they should have been last year. They were ranked #1 for a while before the saints game. While I don't think they are anywhere near the #1 team, I think they will at least contend for a wild card. We added some good talent, dropped some baggage, and are healthier. The O-Line is a concern. I hope that Seubert gets replaced with Andrews and we start running on people again. The Colts gave up 200 yard to foster, I hope they giants run well next week.

Giants fans are most excited about Hakeem Nicks and Kenny Philips.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      By cranky · Posted

      Rico walking is no big deal. I'll take a healthy 2024 Hubbard over Rico any time and losing Mays is, again, no a big deal.  Young is signed for what, $35M for the next two years? Say he wants $50M but the FO doesn't. If they put the franchise tag on him, that would be around $55? So basically they are getting Young for the next 3 years for an average of $30M per year. Putting the franchise tag on him wouldn't be my first choice but it gives them an option that wouldn't be locking him into a long term, $50M contract. I'm not suggestion they do that. Just that the option will be there should they get to that point. Hunt is on a 5 year deal which is done in 28 so he either restructures or is gone anyway. Moton will be 35 by then and will either be gone or have diminished playing time. Neither of those players has anything to do with getting Young a contract. The O line is way overpaid anyway. Hopefully by the time they are gone, Freeling and Hecht will be developed and Ickey will be healthy. Young was benched his second year and only got his job back because Dalton was injured. Not sure how you can call that entitled. And I would NOT say putting a rookie QB on a team with no receivers, tight ends or O lineman and then being put with a coach who never wanted you and is fired mid season, is a definition of luck. As far as competition, no team is going to bring in competition for a QB picked first overall - especially given the capital that was given up to get him.
