Really appreciate you postin these here, Emory... On point analysis whether I agree or not...

Im hopin Eli will pick on Norman, thats what he should do with a rookie. But theres a reason the rook got the start, Norman going to pick Eli right back.... NYGs secondary is a bit hurt, our young guys should be able to step up nicely. LaFell is already showin why he got #2.. cause, you know -he dat deal...

LaFell has 1/3 of the amount of first downs and touchdowns in two games than he did in 16 games last year. He is averaging more than 17 yards per catch and we have Louis Murphy to keep secondaries guessing.

The Giants secondary is shaky and will be even more shaky with guarding the quadruple option.

The Giants are beat up on both sides of the ball. If Bell can play and TD can possibly (this is always an IF with this dude) suit up then man. We'll be 10X more healthy then those dudes. Plus, the pass rush (according to Gaints fans) has been non existent lately. Hopefully hangman keeps his head up and we give our boy protection. He'll pick that poo secondary apart.

One note, Emory...Charles Johnson is typically lining up over the ROT this year, so no need to flip flop him and Hardy.

Good analysis, but of course I disagree with the conclusion.

He was also playing LDE Predominantly last year as well.

i don't see the WRs or the Dline being a liability for the panthers, tbh.

I agree especially about the receivers. He should have called their secondary a liablity against our receivers actually.

Also I would not get overly excited about Johnson going against Locklear. He has played LT for most of his career with the seahawks and did so for the Giants in the first 2 weeks. Then you have Will Beatty taking his place at LT and many Giant fans have been clamoring for this exact thing to happen as they seem down on David Diehl who was previously playing RT. They also finished the game against the Bucs after Diehl went out early (15 snaps) with this exact offensive line they will use against us.

Just to clarify week 1 the giants line was from left to right

Locklear-Boothe-Bass-Snee-Diehl

week 2 starting line

Locklear-Boothe-Bass-Snee-Diehl

week 2 after Diehl went out( the same line they will have against us)

Beatty-Boothe-Bass-Snee-Locklear

    • Why are you so fixated on yards? Even if yards were a good judge of QB play, his low yardage totals in some of those games were partly a function of drops (looking at you Xavier Leggette…).  I’m not advocating that Bryce was elite for the last half of last year, but the eye test certainly supported high level QB play for large stretches. He made a lot of high difficulty, put it on the money/drop in the bucket throws. He converted on 3rd and 4th down, kept drives moving, and put the team in position to win games. And it’s not on him that the defense blew it late after he led game tying drives, Leggette dropped a game winning TD, or Chuba fumbled the ball in OT. We could have finished the season close to .500 with wins against 3 playoff teams including KC and Philly during that stretch largely due to Bryce’s play.    Has he sustained this level of play long enough to deserve an higher ranking? No. But for judging based in that stretch alone, he would. But whether he can perform more consistently at that level or build on that, and thus earns a higher ranking, remains to be seen. 
    • Totally agree with you, if we had invested in drafting a corner or two I wouldn’t even ponder adding Ramsey. But, to be honest we legit added nobody to our corner room this offseason we have nobody worth developing. Even if Chau Smith Wade is better then what I think, he is the only guy we have invested draft capital into outside of our starters.
    • Look at his snap counts, your telling me that his entire college and pro football career every coach he has had has misused him? No offense but I don’t think you understand the role of a slot corner. Mike Jackson is the literal definition of an outside zone corner, he would be totally inept as a slot corner. Ala why he has been an outside corner his entire career.
