MONDAY MORNING Q.B.

WE NEED A RECIEVER

2009-04-22T15:12:00.000-07:00

Amani Toomer criticizes the Giants

"The last couple of games I wasn't a big part of the offense and we lost a big percentage of the games (four of the last five)," Toomer said after the event that was organized by the Home Depot. "I feel like you can't tell me (that) didn't play a big role in it. I think it did."

Amani is right! 100% Gmen stop going to him and they paid for it dearly. Remeember Amani's clutch catches against Dallas and New England in last years playoffs?

I say we make a move and get Plax Jr.
-->

and for the rest of the draft after we trade a 1st and one of our third rounders (we have two) should look like this-->

-----------------

1ST AND 3RD AND SINORICE MOSS TO CLEVELAND FOR BRAYLON EDWARDS

2ND OLB/DE~ CLINT SIMTIM, LAWRENCE SIDEBURY OR LARRY ENGLISH, <--- WHOMEVER IS AVAILABLE???

3RD OG- Kraig Urbik <-- we need a pitbull for short yardage situations and quality backup

4TH WR- Mike Burnell Wallace <--- 4.33, 6'0 200

5TH WR Marko Mitchell <---- 6'4" 215 <--- 4.4

5TH CB Morgan Trent, Michigan

6TH MLB-Joshua Mauga

7TH DE-OLB~ Kenny Mainor

Monday oct 20, 2008 GIANTS 29- 49ers 17

box score

Ugly Win. however a Win's a Win

On the Plaxico pass interferece call in 2nd quarter:

COACH TOM SHOULD'VE GOT @ THE REFREE AND PATTED PLAX ON BACK, ........

You have to support protect your players, ............I know he got a dumb un-sportsman but how bad was that pass interference call?

Parcells would've screamed bloody murder at the refs (supporting his troops) and firing them up......... instead of being a company man that Coach Tom is (and I like Coughlin)

............................

and where was #91 most of the game?

= is he hurt where is he? it's become obvious to me that when Osi comes back next year hopefully..... that Tuck has to come off the bench role with Nuka @ LDE...this is where he "Tuck" is MOST effective

-------------
in an after note:

"Tuck" did turn it on { and around } in 4th quarter....if that's what's need is for him to sit the entire 3rd quarter and 5 minutes of the 4th to get his motor going??? *****believe it or NOT...Tollefson energized our pass rush off the bench 3rd, 4th quarter ...embaressing the starters**maybee***?
--------------

But ALOT THINGS have to be straigtned out by next week opponnet, Steelers

CANT LET UP NOW..

2008-10-13T05:57:00.000-07:00

CAN'T LET UP NOW

THIS is a team WE should BEAT running yards may come difficult @ 1st but once we loosen up their shaky 2ndary and LB units we should be able to pound the rock and also put pressure on their QB from the other side of the ball. Now is no reason to let up!

I know we are going to lose a game, I don't want to go undefeated like the Pats last year...just not this week please :-D, maybee after a long road trip to Az or return trip to Wash, I dunno just hope it doesn't come vs Dallas then again...I'll trade a reg season loss to LiL "D" anyday for another post season win

WEEK #3

2008-09-23T14:09:00.000-07:00

WEEK#3 With a 26-23 win over the now 0-3 Bengals there is reason for concern Gmen fans

I disagree with the "NYPOST'S "JINT'S BEAT REPORTER PAUL SCHWARTZ"= "B" grade of the secondary
I think that was to high...here is why....
.
.
.
When it was 16-13 and again when it was 23-20 Cincy marched down the field almost effortlessly. Due to Quickly designed slant passes,mostly suprise draw runs and a imagintive playbook designed to take our dline pressure out of the game, or limit their effectiveness.

Yes, We got sixxx sacks and even KiwiNuka came on like a gangbusters this week and showed why he's a former 1st round pick. eventhough I think Nuka sttill best suited for Strongside DE

FastFreddy Robbins has another two sacks and the Gmen completely harrased QB Palmer all day

However when the Gmen needed a big sack the most to stop a drive in the 4th quarter it wasn't there!!!!!!!

I kept expecting a key third down sack pushing the Cincy back to a 3rd and 16 or 4th and 16
But it never came!
I then expected a big {int}

or at least a 3rd and long or 4th down to be broken up by one of our young talented corners Ross {dont know if hes hurt bad with seperated shoulder like last year???} ...or even Webster to get a int or a pass breakup in a key situation........IT never happened

What I seen was Cincy run quick slants and their recievers find gaps in our coverage play after play and it concerns me,

ISNT THE REASON we drafted Ross and Webster becuse their bump and run man to man skills?

Why was their huge pockets lapses in coverage then from their wide recievers???????

WEEK #1

2008-09-08T16:58:00.000-07:00

JUSTIN TUCK A STUD NO MATTER WHERE YOU PUT HIM

ONLY #1 SACK AND WHAT WAS KG THINKING INSIDE THE TEN

throwing it every down, almost forcing it on our first possesion in 2nd Quarter inside the ten?

why NOT run the ball we were rambling?

and only #1 sack I'm sorry Tuck played a very very good game but he doesn't have the change of direction in the open field when the QB rolls from DE, he plays better from the DT

and Kiwinuka is NO Osi
he was good against the run all night but virtually no pass rush! Tuck getting doubled team all night Osi wouldve ran around that LT pulling the LG back to help thus forcing a 3 on 3 with the rest of the line!!!

1 sack ???
a win is a win, is a win
a good win
but against a not very well coached confused team!

----------------------------------------------------
Personally I think.......Kiwinuka has to be moved to the strongside HERE'S WHY

Osi when he was in would command @ least two blockers be it the LT and LG or LT and RB.
virtually ensuring one on one for the rest of the line

Kiwi might be fast but he isn't as quick and change of direction, and bouncability-being a tall lanky DE isn't that of a smaller DE such as Osi or how McDougle is said to be!

it's been proven Tuck is solid no matter where they put him. I think his best match up is inside even as good as he is outside.
Now McDougle combine and collegiate record suggests he's faster and even more athletic than the ultra athletic Umenyiora and he's more suited for the weakside as Kiwi is for the strong side

What I'm saying is move Tuck around from RE to LE to DT, keep Kiwi @ Strong side either @ LB or DE and rotate both McDougle in and Tollefson in @ weakside with Tuck @ insurance and Kiwinuka @ strong side

that's all I'm saying!!!
I also said we would possibily have this problem NOT going after a DE in draft with Mike retiring and Osi's track record of injury every other season!!!

WYNN OR WHIMPER OR REPEAT

2008-07-02T19:21:00.000-07:00

ON DEFENSE

I think that..The Gmen are going to need a big effort from Renaldo Wynn to even have a chance to repeat..........

I think Bryan Kehl should be given a chance @ WLB and that Zach DeOssie to @ SLB, freeing up a guy like Mathis Kiwinuka to play DE again and everywhere!!!!!!.. . Hey we always have a veteran LB in Danny Clarke to back them both up if they falter...

Why not??? I think DeOssie has Vrabel abilty, Yes I do, I expect Kehl to take majority of the WLB snaps by seasons end as well...

........if DeOssie starts @ strongside it frees up Kiwinuka to play DE because I think it's going to take #3 to replace Strahan , Tuck-Wynn half and half on first and longs, Wynn on 2nd and short, Kiwi on 2nd and long and Kiwi on 3rd down with Tuck @ DT

In order to keep Tuck fresh!!!..and versatille as last season------------->
you're going to have to split time with Wynn especially against running oriented teams with Wynn getting majority of snaps in those situations. and Kiwinuka on passing downs and Kiwinuka and Tuck on 3rd downs!

<---Yeah I only hope DeOssie is giving a fair chance? Make Clark the starter and ease DeOssie in with Kiwinuka spelling both @ LB and DE and split Tuck and Wynn to keep Tuck fresh meat for DT work.....

heck personally I like it....

Kiwinuka ALL OVER THE PLACE

50-50 at LB on 1st downs

@ DE on some, 2nd and passing downs

On Offense
I think the Gmen are going to need for Guy Whimper to outright win the LT job sending the all pro Guard but only adequate tackle David Diehl back to Guard

On Shockey: I dont know what to do with him???
is it a coincedence the Gmen performed @ a higher level when he was gone last year and Eli had more confidence and the entire offense played better as a unit???...I dont know?
.
If he is that unhappy then maybee it's best to get what we can for him a 2nd rounder maybee an impact player on defenseline to replace Strahan...................but I was hoping the Gmen would run more two tight end power sets this year to help bolster their running game that was very good last season ...And so opposition dont get used to us and give other teams another wrinkle or look???

May 5th, 2008, GAMES ARE WON IN THE TRENTCHES

2008-05-05T16:33:00.000-07:00

—Reports say that OLT Guy Whimper, a three-year veteran, has made “tremendous strides” and is ready to compete with David Diehl for the position. If he wins, Diehl will go back to left guard, where he would be an improvement over reliable journeyman Rich Seubert.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Also reported in our friends @ MyTeamRivals.com/nygiants

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
GAMES ARE WON IN THE TRENTCHES!

it's in this writers opinion that........I agree Adam Koetz and Guy Reugmar "even though hReugemar been solid, he's still an inside guy and 33 years old, ... both dont extacly evoke confidence? heh?
..
I only hope that Guy Whimper can win out the LT job in camp
putting Diehl ( who gave up 15.5 sacks third worse last season ) back to guard and back to elite pro-bowl level play
.
Or I think we'll be seeing alot of two TE sets this year emphasized from the Left side?
further more....We also have that same problem @ DE if Strahan retires and one of the regs gets hurt G-D forbid presumming Kiwinuka stays @ OLB we're down to Daave Tollefson as 3rd DE on chart and starter???

-------------------------->idk theres quite a few guys out there from major programs like USC's Drew Radovich who can play G or T and USC's Matt Spanos who can play all three positions upfront, as well as Tommy Blake once though as 1st round talent @ DE whom could play DE-or SAM LB

May 5th, 2008, LOOK'S LIKE TENNESEE AND SEATLE ARE TRYING TO BUILD WHAT WE HAD LAST YEAR?

2008-05-05T00:58:00.000-07:00

From Seatle taking my boy Lawrence Jackson in the 1st
when they already have Kearney, Julian Petersen and Darryl Tapp

Seems that DE depth isn't such a bad thing heh?

And Tennesse with Kyle Vanden Bosch, Albert Haynesworth and Travis LaBoy and now just drafted Justin Jones who figures to fill the role that Tuck did for us last year @ DT on passing downs hmnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn?

Even Jacksonville took Derrick Harvey and Quentin Groves

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Look's like quite a few teams are trying to copy what MADE US SUCCESFULL last year, and realize it isn't #1 or even #2 pass rushers that make the team but a concerted front line effort!!!!!!!!!!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
.
.
.
.
.
.
Continued....

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

That's Why I say God forbid Strahan retires or either Tuck or Kiwi gets hurt where are we??? Osi and Tollefson as starters minus Strahan theres the depth anyway without moving Kiwi back to end!!!!
.
.

In retrospect, We could've traded down still gotten @ Tyrell Johnson or Josh Barrett or Joe Fields @ saftey and gotten a Justin King or equivalent to Terrel Thomas later rounds
.
.
.
............But overall I'm not going to be a hater I'm just defending my thoughts ...overall I'd call right now our draft a (B grade)
just below Dallas who scores a (b+) and way ahead of ..............
Washington (C grade) and Philly (c-)

.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.

on another note:
==========================================

DOES "OSI" HAVE THE AUTHORITY?

Does "Osi" have the authority or charsma----> ....Like Strahan did and does? If Strahan does retire? Or is "Osi" only concerned with Osi?
.
.
.

From his statement @ the NFL draft ( these players they have to compete with are playing to put food on their family's table, they're NOT playing for scholarships "chuckle" )
.
.
.

^<---- That statement above shows me this is the kind of guy that may feel threathned by other's success? When he should thank Strahan and co. for his!!!

.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
=================================================================
and lastly:

And, Why haven't we picked up Tommy Blake in unsigned FA's??? The Guy's a terror OFF the EDGE!! ...Do they think possibily he's to sensetive for Coughlin? He would be perfect for SAM LB and DE depth in case Kiwi......

......and Why NO Matt Spanos the guy can play C, OG or OT or OG-OT Drew Radovich better than our subs now? NO??
=========================================================
.
.
.

4 aces 4 ever,

OSI, STRAHAN, KIWINUKA AND TRUCK!!!

I'M TIRED OF HEARING J.E.T.S. FANS AND JOE BENINGO AND WFAN

2008-05-02T01:23:00.000-07:00

I'M TIRED OF HEARING J.E.T.S. FANS AND JOE BENINGO AND WFAN say...........................Look @ THE GIANTS on any given sunday, just get into the playoff's and get hot!!!!!!!!!!!!
.
.
.

1st off it isn't that easy to GET into the playoffs!!!
.
.
.
.

2nd off the J.E.T.S. as a team I dont dislike,I dont dislike any NY team. But even if they snuck into the playoffs @ 8-8, there is no way that team can play against top tier competition Jacksonville, Pittsburgh, Indianoplis etc. etc.
.
.
.
.
.

3rd off it was no fluke the GIANTS did what they did their offense may not have been a Superbowl calibre offense, but their defense with future hall of famer Michael Strahan and best Dlineman west of the Missississipi, Osi Umenyiora {who's in Osi league? other than DeMarcus Ware and Dwight Freeney in the entire NFL} other than maybee, teamates Justin Tuck or Mathis Kiwinuka {both considered a top %15 pick in there draft before senior year injuries?}
.

Tuck is just a beast!!!!!!!!! .... I did some reading on him, hold's every Notre Dame record and....ran a 6.1 dash @ 278 llbs Phenonmenal} NOT Gholston NOT LONG , NOT Merling in this 08 class measure up

.
.
.
.
.
.
4th Eli like him or NOT {and you jets fans could use a QB yourselves, you should've taken Henne in 08, you're going to regret that like you didn't take Marino} anyway Eli is a number #1 pick in the entire draft.

And Plax is a top #10 pick in entire draft.

.
.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

WHO ON THE J.E.T.S. EVEN COMPARES? GIVE US OUR CREDIT!!!!!

YOU DONT EVEN HAVE A PLAYER THAT MATCHES UP TO "SHOCKEY" IN MAGNITUDE ALONE!!!!

I THINK STRAHAN is RETIRING "DRAFT 2008"

2008-04-19T14:50:00.000-07:00

I really do think Mikes calling it a career. Thats why you wont hear anything about it definte. The Giants dont want to tip there hand in the draft. Yes we need an left OT. We gave up like the third most sacks from the LT position last year at 15.5
...But I really dont think there is a OT that can step up and play right away except from the very top of the 1st round. ......Maybee with another year and camp Guy Whimper can step in and put Diehl back to his natural position of LG and to his all pro calibre play? I really do not like Kenny Phillips for this team or Dan Connor in any shape way or form. And I think it's absurb to think we're going take a WR Mario Manningham in the 1st according to Mayock!

I think the GMEN should best in invest further into their strenghts and what made them special last year they're one injury, retirement or holdout from being thin at DE forcing Tuck into a starting role losing their versatillity

My GIANT MOCK

1- DE- Phillip Merling or Lawrence Jackson, Strahan's replacement

2-Oniel Cousins OT, Diehl back to OG

3- Josh Barett SS built like a LB covers like a corner

4-Sean Crable- LB or DE - Just like Reggie Torbor or Maybee "Guy Whimper type project LT and NJ native Jerremy Zutah ?

5-Darnell Terrell- 4.2 big physical corner-project can play FS

6- Matt Spanos- insurance for O'Hara / Hille Taylir DE/LB tweener

7-Zachary Bowman-injury past big physical corner can play FS / Joe Fields FS

PLEASE Mr.Reese are you listening?
!

THE POST THAT GOT ME BANNED FROM GIANTS.COM

2008-04-04T19:31:00.000-07:00

In retrospect, I think what had gotten me banned is explaing that by me saying the GIANT faithfull would be shouting "ELLLLLLLLLLLL JAYYYYYYYYYYY" for Lawrence Jackson, and then........Comparing Michael Strahan saying his overall career was better than that of Lawrence Taylor in answering this forum. Further stating that if "LT" played today that he wouldn't be as dominate. That teams and I believe this were'nt ready for him back in the early 80's being the 34 defense was fairly new as the time. LT was still an unstoppable force in his time a perfect blend of size speed and strenght for the WiLL LB of 34 and the mold in which it was created. But IMO Strahan longevity and overall numbers and career were better----------->

it started like this------------->

To answer someone on Trey Maulauga ILB, Idont think Maulauga isn't comming out in 08, he'll be top 20 pick in 2009, I liked what I've seen too

on Trey Maulauga ILB, Idont think Maulauga isn't comming out in 08, he'll be top
20 pick in 2009, I liked what I've seen too

and to back up my point on drafting a DE not a saftey ---->

http://mondaymornqb.blogspot.com/2008/03/draft-2008-lj-next-lt.html

------------------------------------------------------------------------

2nd round

#63 New York
Giants: Jason Jones, DE, Eastern Michigan

Now that
the Giants are champions, it's a safe bet that Michael Strahan may retire even
though he has hinted that he will come back. Assuming he doesn't un-retire for
the 5,000th time, the Giants will need another pass rusher in their rotation.

Pick change; previously Erin Henderson, OLB

http://walterfootball.com/draft2008_2.php

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

I agree with the line of thinking competely, but???

But why Jones? when he's RDE and Jackson could be maybee had in the first or
early second and he's from USC and a LDE,

Than if a guy like Baker drops down to late 2nd pick him just for
competition at LT sake and depth

P.S. ***theres plenty of talent 3 to 7 to pick a corner, saftey or knickel
throughout the draft take care of our bread n butter 1st@!

I DONT THINK KENNY PHILLIPS WILL BE THERE EVEN IF HE IS

I PREFER LJ!

DRAFT 2008- LJ THE NEXT LT?

2008-03-27T21:55:00.000-07:00

Well no one's LT irreplacable, but USC's Lawrence Jackson the only left defensive end other than Brian Johnson I'm liking and you're not hearing alot about him

He holds USC's all time sack leader like Justin Tuck has in Notre Dame his numbers are actually better than Tucks 56 sacks to 54 or something or other 98 tackles for loss etc. etc....

And he's projected 2nd or 3rd , who knows though?

I think Jackson can be Perfect replacement for Strahan,

Ilike Tuck where he is, he's special because he can line up @ RDE his true position DT, LB and I say keep Kiwi the way we're using him NOW!@LB'er

see the video on him --->

DRAFT 2008

my updated draft--->

Sam Baker OT <--- team guy not overwhelming but would fit in w/ this group , only going get better
Lawrence Jackson DE
Charles Godfrey CB or Antwon Moldem CB
Bryan Kehl LB
Jason Jones DE or Jeremy Thompson DE or Brian Jonstone DE
Darnell Terelll CB
Matt Spanos C-OG
Zackary Bowman KNB~ OR Shannon Tevaga OG

Whatya think?

In replying to this article in GIANTS 101 "Can You Have Enough Pass Rushers? "

http://forums.screamingsports.com/blogs/giants-101/archive/2008/03/09/can-you-have-enough-pass-rushers.aspx?CommentPosted=true#commentmessage

Personally I think the GMEN need a second field general next to Pierce if you ever noticed many times the GIANTS would line up in a hybrid 5-2 defense 4 down lineman and the SLB with his hand in the dirt too on the line. With both Mitchell and Pierce lined up in a sorta dual MLB role

Kawika made up for alot of what Piece didn't or couldn't and always seemed to be in the right place at the right time!

Wilk scares me, I dont think he's an every down LB'er

and is more suited for a tampa#2 type defense.

So the only one I know that's versatille enough to be a OLB/ILB and to fill Michell's shoes and is a field general in his own right is Dan Connor, unless someone knows a good sleeper later on like Beu Bell perhaps we must address our LB'er depth, even if Wilkerson starts

WE MUST PUT AN EMPAHSIS ON STOPPING THE RUN AS NEXT YEAR

lets not forget Quarterfinals in Dallas and MBIII first half................and LET'S not just the pass rush!

***there are alot of good Defensive Ends in the later 4th and 5th rounds getting a real good OT like William or Otah would be nice? but I think they'll be gone by the 31st pick

THE DYE IS CAST "DAN CONNOR" 1ST ROUND AND SLEEPERS

2008-03-03T13:28:00.000-08:00

Forget everything I said about the draft thus far!!!

......With "2nd" field general Kawika Mitchell gone we're going need a heady athletic LB'er we were blessed last year with the emergance of mitchell, now with him gone, and I think he will be missed more and harder to replace then Wilson ,

We need to sign either Rivers and-or Connor, hopefull both?
I dont know if Conor will be around late 2nd? I know Rivers probably wont be around late 1st
So it would have to be Connor then who can play OLB as well.
He's a sideline to sideline talent.

..........then after that 2nd round Brandon Albert OG/OT http://www.nfldraftscout.com/ratings/profile.php?pyid=33795 if still available if not---------->

heres a few sleepers i like --->

Heath Benedict 2nd or 3rd OG-OT http://www.nfldraftscout.com/ratings/profile.php?pyid=67382
to shore up our OLINE give depth and for future

Justin King CB if around 4th? http://www.nfldraftscout.com/ratings/profile.php?pyid=56933

or
antwon moldem CB, if still around 2nd or 3rd ?http://www.nfldraftscout.com/ratings/profile.php?pyid=73849

on the Saftey--->

Quintin Demps FS http://www.nfldraftscout.com/ratings/profile.php?pyid=19295

Joe Fields FS http://www.nfldraftscout.com/ratings/profile.php?pyid=9466

on the Strong Saftey's~>

Josh Barrett SS http://www.nfldraftscout.com/ratings/profile.php?pyid=15066
He's predicted to go 4th or 5th by draft scout? I think he'll go higher ?

So~~~>
Tyrell Johnson SS , 4th or 5th --->http://www.nfldraftscout.com/ratings/profile.php?pyid=17614

or~

Derrick Doggett SS, 6th or 7th round predicted --> http://www.nfldraftscout.com/ratings/profile.php?pyid=17614

or on the D-line-->

Justin Jones DE who in draft scout is predicted to go 4th or 5th? and isnt heard about
http://www.nfldraftscout.com/ratings/profile.php?pyid=9466

or

who i really like...........
Brian Johnstone DE for more depth to replace Awasum ------->
http://www.nfldraftscout.com/ratings/profile.php?pyid=68159

....I really like both Rivers and Connor especiallllllllllly now with Mitchell gone!!
Heath Benedict is must in my opinion at OG to upgrade over Seubert and also can play LT like Diehl!

And I like Moldem but I doubt we'll get him?......... and I like Johnstone alot to back up both Tuck and Osi kid has alot heart, what do you think?

?

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

here are some more later round suggestions ...........

Here is a few others I like in later rounds at corner

Reggie Smith CB, proj-2nd rnd http://www.nfldraftscout.com/ratings/profile.php?pyid=57258

Terrell Thomas CB, proj-2nd or 3rd- http://www.nfldraftscout.com/ratings/profile.php?pyid=15705

Darnell Terell CB, a project but 6"2" 205 llbs and 4.39 ... proj round 5 or 6

http://www.nfldraftscout.com/ratings/profile.php?pyid=61433

@ WR if you must? .....Marcus Monk , theres your big 6'4" 230 pound reciever to replace legendary on this board " Anthony Mixx " ---> http://www.nfldraftscout.com/ratings/profile.php?pyid=32827

reciever isn't a neccasity I think we should give Hixon who runs like deer a shot ?

THE BENEFITS OF LINING UP DUAL TE'S AND KEEPING SHOCKEY & BOSS

2008-02-21T19:06:00.000-08:00

Our number #1 foe in the SFC east is Dallas, whom has two premier outside pass rushers in DeMarcus Ware and the other guy?

Call it an H-Back, Slant TE or whatever you like

it helps out against edge rushers especially one's that play the 3-4 as seen by the Patriots in the JFC champinship game against San Diego.

And it helps out our aging OLINE in the running game against 8 man fronts. And gives us another look!

I stand by my stance --> TO KEEP SHOCKEY OR NOT?

Keep Shockey use him in dual TE or as a slant back and continue to develope Boss in the more traditional TE!

TO TRADE SHOCKEY OR NOT?

2008-02-20T15:30:00.000-08:00

the board and newspapers are heating up whether the GMEN should trade Shockey---->

[quote user="Pierce4Pres"PRO-Shockey-Fan]

It just kills me how a large percentage of the fans are even thinking trade. So much to be said for team loyalty, though we expect that from the players. Shock helped get us to where we are.

DON'T YOU KNUCKLEHEADS FORGET THAT!

So many of you make me sick with talk of trading Shock. Sit down and shut your pie hole!

[/quote user= ANTI-Shockey-Fan]

Personally in my opinion, Shockey should be used as an offset the left tackle (H-back) the same way that Joe Gibb's Pigskins did in there glory days. And Boss as the more traditional tightend on the field at the same time!

Offcourse Shockey would be the more featured receiver............. and his run blocking dominace would help out greatly on off tackle to the left runs which suffered last season a bit with new LT David Diehl @ a new position

BUT, it is VERY REAL!

http://sports.aol.com/fanhouse/2008/02/14/giants-gm-jerry-reese-jeremy-shockey-is-our-starting-tight-end/#comments

In conclusion this writers opinion is:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Boss cannot sit because he has to develope , better with Shockey around than NOT. If you have read my posts here, You would know I'm more FOR KEEPING Shockey than trading him@!

. However if I choose between the two of
(the soon to be even larger contract of Shockey) .............or the developing young Boss

I choose Boss for his ethics teamwork his potential , his chemistry with Eazy-E
and the fact not only because his number is #89 but his resemblance IN PLAY to Bavaro!

***
Shockey would dominate as an H-Back it would show he's a team player not a me guy, and it isn't so that much different than being a TE, and it would give us another offensive formation on the field or another look if you will.

........***And it would help our offensive line which is getting older and no true dominant knock down blocker other than Snee and Mckenzie on the right side!

UN SUNG HERO'S

"the party is over the Superbowl was great all time, But It's time to maintain and build for the future boy's---------------->

1) Kawika Mitchell, was in almost every big tackle in every big spot

2) Derrik Ward, carried the running game, mid-early season when Jacobs got hurt, and in my opinion was a better goal line RB than Drouhgns

3) Fred Robbins and Barry Cofield, both were instrumental in stopping the opposing running game and got some pressure and sacks in key situations

4) Chase Blackburn, although not as "X's and O's" smart as any of the other LB's spearheaded the special teams unit

5) Corey Webster, shouldnt be overlooked even if we get a stud corner via draft/ free agency very useable and physical corner and a very good 3rd corner for the future

Most overated

1) Jeremy Shockey, team seemed to gel and be cohesive after he left with injury , never really has lived up to his immense potential. Has had his mommtnts!!! But can be so much better , I'm not giving up on him!

2) Brandon Jacobs , I really try to like him want him so badly to be a franchise RB but he plays the position like a LBer basically diving into would be tacklers with all his might instead of lowering the shoulder and boom and keep moving on? If he wanted to play LB'er he should've played LB'er

I do not give up on him

3) David Diehl, very rarely did the GIANTS run off left tackle and he seemed to struggle in run blocking game and with bull rushers, however it was his first full season at LT needs to improve on decent yet lackluster 1st season!

He's a team player and a good guy, however he will be looking over his shoulder if he doesn't progress

*NEXT UP GRADE YOUR STARTERS

2008-02-17T15:13:00.000-08:00

A+, A, A-, B+,B,B-,C+,C,C-,D+,D,D-,F

QB's

QB. ELI MANNING =( B-) still needs to be more consistant ,run more rollouts maybee

QB JARED LORENZSE= (D+) this grades based more on potential then playing time as he didnt play much at all but when he has has a habit of looking down and making his throws to the ground and pocket precence is poor as he hurrys and sees the rush

QB Anthony Wright =(D+)= not the answer a little better field general then Lorenzen but lacks the arm better technique however

RB's

RB Brandon Jacobs (C+)= immense potential 6'4" 275 4.5, speed can break tackles however runs into traffic way too much almost as if he tackling the tacklers like a LB'er with all his might to punish them thus takinh him off his feet altogether too much for a big fast man,
click here for full evalutation --> THE KNOCK ON JACOBS

Im conclusion he needs to run lower his shoulder work on his balance in offseason , be more patietnt also, for two way goe's and lower the shoulder and keep moving and stop diving into tackles

RB Ahman Bradshaw (A)= unlimited potential in limited action, fights for extra yardage carrying 300 pound tackles on his back refusing to drop knee which may result in injuy in future.

He has shown although to be durable, great hands runs draws very well and runs offtackle well, attacks the corner well dangerous in open spaCE

RB Derrik Ward (B)= has a nose for the goal line sees the field well decent cuts but isnt bradshaw decent power but isnt Jacobs uses his power better than Jacobs however, may be expendable as he is UFA and position is loaded

RB Reuben Droughns (D+)= excelled in special teams and blocking out of the back field has limited carries so really cant judge him but in those limited carries and goal line situations he hasn't been impressive.

Madison Hedgecock (B+) = excellent blocker out of backfield does his job but limited in any other offensive aspect

TE's

Jeremy Shockey (C-) dispapointing season ended in broken leg needs to be more in sync with play calling , run better routtes, but is a force in running game may be best suited as a offset tackle or as as Hback or fullback

Click here for full evaluation --> SHOCKEY

Kevin Boss (B+) reminencent of and old numbr #89 with 45 yard catch in superbowl

GIANT of a man at 6'7" 265 long arm span.... blocks out safteys well with his size runs great routtes as is only a rookie

Micael Matthews (C+) one dimensial role player blocks for running game used on goal; line situations not much else

WR's

Plaxico Buress (A) played hurt all season was regular season MVP in my opinion, a true gamer, slowed towards the end of season other wise grade would've been an (A+) and not just an (A)

Amani Toomer (A+) made crucial drops during season but when the time to turn it on was there was as clutch as anybody the all important (x) reciever that makes the offense go

Steve Smith (A) took alot of pressure off both Toomer and Plax made clutch important catches down the stretch and is only a rookie

David Tyree (B+) all I have to say is "the catch" special teams demon very imprtant player

Dom Hixon (A-) very good at KR always put us in good field position did everything and much more then expected of him, rarely used as a reciever although

Sinorice Moss (inc) never used sits on the bench have to wonder why with all his talent , maybee best trade this 4.23, speed, fast little smurf reciever/scatback

Next up the OLINE

THE KNOCK ON JACOBS

2008-02-16T19:16:00.000-08:00

[quote user="NYGJacobs27" Pro Jacobs supporter on GIANTS.com ]

Brandon Jacobs is a "Man Child" heres the proof, To read the complete story, click here.

Jacobs the intimidator hopefully I posted this right tell me what u think of this video...

[/reply By Jacob's critic]

If you notice when he hits that Green Bay corner he "Jacob's" has a seem that could gain him affectively up to 4 to 5 more yards to his left, ......but would create a collision with the LB'er AJ Hawk!!!

He opts to lower his head and take on the CB only picking up 2 yards,......and if he outweights that corner, ....then tell me why is he taken off his feet?And NOT keep running on?

He dont look like he absorbed any shock from the hit?

my opinion?

DONT BELIEVE THE HYPE

Jacobs needs to work on his balance, ON his first step even if that means lose 15 to 25 pounds to become more felexible in pivoting off his hips ~~ Thus reaching top speed faster , and he needs to read his blockers better and stop thinking like a LB'er tackling and punishing the would be tackler with all his might, and just lower the shoulder and keep it moving!~

**** P.S. I dont dislike Jacobs, I want him to fullfill expectations more than anyone. But he was making me sick during the Superbowl lowering his head burying it in GIANTS OffTackle David Diehl's back ~taking two yard runs, when he had the entire sideline sealed off by Diehl that would've easily resulted in at least an 11 yard gain!

2008-02-15T15:23:00.000-08:00

there is alot of arguments on Shockey all over the net and newspaper as whether the GMEN are a better team without him--->

DON'T YOU KNUCKLEHEADS FORGET THAT!

So many of you make me sick with talk of trading Shock. Sit down and shut your pie hole!

[/quote]

it is VERY REAL! the rumors abroad--->

http://sports.aol.com/fanhouse/2008/02/14/giants-gm-jerry-reese-jeremy-shockey-is-our-starting-tight-end/#comments

In my opinion:

TO TRADE SHOCKEY OR NOT

guess what fella's it isn't up to us....................In my opinion if we're going to use a dual tight end like the Pigskins did in the Joe Gibbs glory era I can defentely see the benefits of keeping Shockey as I think he would excell in a Offset H-back to help run support off Left tackle and we all know Shockey's pass catching potential, there is no doubt that Eli has a chemistry with Kevin Boss and he should be groomed in the more traditional TE role

With our OLINE getting older and no true pusinshing road graders on our left side
(we're a get a hat on a defender, more than a zone blocking unit that gives ->the RB a two way go system)

*** I think it's invevitable next year to show different faces bringing in deep threat specialist Hixon as he's being groomed, rookie sensation Smith, scatback and maybee Westerbrook clone Bradshaw

as well as mix and match with our fullback hedgecock on occasion (although with Shockey @ H-Back and Boss at TE , .....it limits the need for any blocking back) mixing back fields of Jacobs with Bradshaw, Jacobs alone, Bradshaw alone , Ward (if we resign him) alone and Ward with Bradshaw.

****If we're NOT going to use Shockey in this manner, and he's too talented to sit and not be in 75% of our offensive plays----> thus sitting Boss to the bench which I think is a big mistake and NOT USE them Together!!!

Then we are better off to yes pulling the trigger and trading Shockey, but NOT for Oucho Cinco SORRY

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

in conclusion:

Boss cant sit because he has to develope , better with Shockey around than NOT. If you have read my post here, You would know I'm more FOR KEEPING Shockey than trading him@!

. However if I choose between the two of
(the soon to be even larger contract of Shockey) .............or the developing young Boss

WHATS NEXT GIANT FANS 2008 AND BEYOND PART #2

2008-02-05T13:37:00.000-08:00

hey do you think Strahan will come to next years party

i sure as heck hope so, im not sure if Kiwi can fill his shoes and

I like Tuck just where he is as a Mean Joe Green DT/DE

and not to be a downer, I

wasnt impressed with run blocking

even though that sounds ludicris that they gained over 138 yds @ game

wasnt impressed with Diehl at all no matter how adequate at LT he's been this year. He almost cost us the game on getting owned all night by Adelius Thomas especially on the Tyree miracle catch and isnt the best run blocking tackle no runs off tackle to left side this year a giant trademark

I dunno if it's Diehl or Seubert ,

but every big run i ever see usually you see Seubert seems to have a big block just as Snee

*********Also with the right tuteledge

Ahman Bradshaw can very much become another Brian Westerbrook

Not overly impressed with Brandon Jacobs even though I want to be ,

keep trying to like him

I watch Brandon, he doesn't just lower the shoulder and boom to break tackles

then keep moving on, he throws his body at defenders and everything into it

like he's a linebacker that's why he goes off his feet alot

he's tackling the tacklers with the ball

?????????????????

.........on contact, its one big smash hes running the ball like he's a linebacker ,

I wish he would run it more like a running back or Marion the Barbarian

and watch more films on hime too, he def has more potential then Barber?

here's some suggestions Ive made,

i take back the Campbell draftee,

Im not overlly impressed with him to trade up or any of the outside rushers

if he's there he's there,

my stragedy has changed to a saftey like Indys that can

defend the pass like a CB and the run like a LB

and then maybee a stud LB

after that we def need OL help maybee another DT here look --->

http://mondaymornqb.blogspot.com/2008/01/2009-and-beyond-flozell-adams-to-become.html

I been trumping Calias Campbell ((a clone of Caralina's big DE or less talented Mario Williams with less speed)))) than and possibily signing away Flozell Adams away from the Cowboys to disrupt Dallas's chemistry and add more depth on our OLINE
and another LB and CB (((Tariq Alib)))
....and finally a quality backup QB and a scatback like Fla. States Antonie Snith who can play slot
(you got one more season Sinorice in my eyes))))

Here's a few of the players, I been trumpeting

another big physical Corner

Aqib Talib, Kansas
Height: 6-1. Weight: 183.
40 Time: 4.47.

a road grader Offensive Guard or tackle i like ALOT I'M sure we wont get him :-) but....

http://www.nfldraftdog.com/2008_NFL_Draft/heath_benedict.htm

http://walterfootball.com/draft2008OG.php

we defenetly need a saftey? that can cover like a corner but play the run like a LB and cover opponets TE's
Matbee, Josh Barrett, SS, Arizona State Height: 6-3. Weight: 231. 40 Time: 4.49. Projected Round: 2-3.

and a Linebacker that chases sideline to sideline, we may have that guy already in Wilkerson??? a little more developement ??? him... Bradshaw, Smith?

my early mock draft looks like this --->

tariq alib cb
xavier alibi lb
heath benedict OG
josh barrett SS
Maurice Murry DT
tracey porter cb
Marcus Monk WR
antoine Smith rb

ALSO-----------> SEE FIRST PART
-------------------------> 2008 AND BEYOND PART#1

KEEP SPAGS

2008-02-04T16:35:00.000-08:00

If it wasn't for Spags this team might not be Super?
May not even have made the playoffs? We need to pay Spags "Garrett" money
Besides the Redskin situation is lousy and yes he's a hometown hero, but how long do you think that will last with the Redskin situation? I mean look at Bellechick in Cleveland almost runied him?
And He isn't exactly the revered a living legend in D.C. like Joe Gibbs in Washington and that owner in D.C.

>??????????????????????????

ALOT OF FIGHT IN THIS TEAM

2008-02-02T07:37:00.000-08:00

<---- intresting aricle on why boston teams are so good http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/page2/story?page=contract/080121

If you ask me the League isn't fair to the GMEN naming all kinds of Pat players and Cowgirls to the probowl The NFL is cheap man if you notice the pro-bowl list they name 3 of each position like at tackle in the NFC they name only 3 players Walter Jones, Flozell Adams and the left tackle on Green Bay last time I checked, all 3 are LT's, ... and in my opinion Adams doesn't belong, BUT THEY'RE all left tackles!!!!

What the NFL cant name right tackles too like who is more deservant than Kareem McKenzie? And at OG too..... ok...ok.... Steve Hutchithson is a perenial hall of famer but after him.... only Leornard Davis and Shawn Andrews? OK at least Davis is a RG but only 1 deep at RG with two LG's what about Chris Snee a player if I ever seen, if he doesnt belong then I dont know?

Same with reciever, they only name 4 recievers when most NFL rosters carry 5 or 6? you're telling me out of 16 teams only 4 get named? Was any reciever more vital to his team besides Moss or Welker who play in the other conference than Plaxico Buress even if he do have a really big mouth?

*** & ONLY #1 FB and 2 TE'S ???

Or is the NFL and the NFLPA to weak a union and cheap to name more players that they dont want to pay probowl bonuses? That's why I ask does anyone know where I can find the ALL-Madden team listing I cannot find it even with --> google and yahoo?
still cant seem to find it, if he even still names it anymore , if anybody knows please let me know thank you

How I would fight the Pack ??? ... & no matter what happens LeT's GO GIANTS!!!

2008-01-19T05:06:00.000-08:00

How I would fight the Pack

a.) first off I would take out a LB alot of the game use Mitchell and Pierce as slash ILB/OLB offset the end, and hide there coverage whether they're blitzing or dropping back

......and even though we're banged up in the secondary put a strong tackling saftey maybee Johnson in the middle to spy on recievers comming through the middle.

b.) Turnovers concern me! yes Greenbay's Grant fumbled twice last week but that's uncommon for him. However our two backs do hve ball control issues especially Jacobs running so tall and with the whether being what it will in Lambeu and G.B.'s hard hitting linebackers ???

c.) If we run succesfull against a stingy defense and limit there run teeing off on Farve we have a shot!!!

No matter what happens in Lambeu this sunday against the heavily favored Packers, it was a great season, this team showed charecter and a ton of heart so0o0oo0ooo LeT's GO GIANTS!!!

dont let up now! only thing that concrens me is that many of the Giants especially Strahan have alot of respect as well they should for Farve will they go after him as hard as Romo?

other than that.......... LeT's GO GIANTS!!!

CLICK TO SEE ARTICLE
http://www.usatoday.com/sports/football/nfl/2008-01-15-giants-packers-preview_N.htm

Green bay is ferocious on defense there corners and safteys hit the recievers very hard in the cold icy Lambeu they stuff running games the key to this game is to try and get after Favre! and to keep running Jacobs 3 quarters, bashing there line and then bringing in Bradshaw to run around them, but no matter what we got to build for the future! build up that oline and look heavily at trading up for Calais Campell who would someday fit and replace Strahan a sure hall a famer. This team has the right ingrediants no matter what happens now its time to be a mixologist Mr. Reece

2008? and beyond ......Flozell Adams to become @ GIANTS?

2008-01-17T02:45:00.000-08:00

http://mondaymornqb.blogspot.com/

Ever see a team make the superbowl maybee even win it and the next year or two years after that drop off to 9-7 , 8-8 or worse 6-10 and not make the playoffs?

In the ultra competive NFL what do the GIANTS do next year to stay ahead, No matter what happens in the Superbowl changes have to be made next year to improve upon secondary, to beef up the Oline which is the running game. I've seen to many times where as our Oline doesn't create much a hole for Jacobs he goes between the creases they get hats on defenders but dont shift them like the Packers do in there zone blocking scheme creating two way goes for there running backs "the Packers whom btw got shut down by us in the running game" but they did it all day against the Seahawks

******I really wanted Gaither but the Jints didn't want to give up 4th rounder for pure talent 6'9" 325-4.9 beast who can play RT or LT

I also like Calais Cambpell DE/DT to fill in for Stahan some day http://walterfootball.com/draft2008DE.php

And another big physical Corner

Aqib Talib, Kansas
Height: 6-1. Weight: 183.
40 Time: 4.47.

and a Linebacker that chases sideline to sideline, we may have that guy already in Wilkerson??? a little more developement ??? him... Bradshaw, Smith?

I'd package Kiwi maybee in trade with Sinorice for a top ten draft?

We also could use running back depth. I dont expect Droughns to come back, wont get much for him maybee trade him to Seatle where he played college and who needs a RB for a 4th or 5th

we defenetly need a saftey?

Josh Barrett, SS, Arizona State
Height: 6-3. Weight: 231.
40 Time: 4.49.
Projected Round: 2-3.

then maybee draft in the 4th or 5th Fla States disapointing--> tailback-scatback Antone Smith 4.38 -40
whom can be a KR a 3rd down scatback or slot WR

but you know we'll need OG a real road grader, with the running game our lifes blood

and "you know Dallas is going to pick up free agent monster run stuffer Sean Rodgers

I'm thinking --> maybee "Heath Benedict"

http://www.nfldraftdog.com/2008_NFL_Draft/heath_benedict.htm

http://walterfootball.com/draft2008OG.php

than whatever we can find after that some needs are NT, WR .....

I also felt the need to steal F.A. Flozell Adams from the Cowboys...just to mess up there consistency

and the fact they'll have to replace him ---> http://boards.giants.com/forums/thread/654909.aspx

Your "ONE" stop shop for the latest GIANT NATION
new's, and FAN FORUM

10 YARD ..FIGHT! ...FIGHT!
...FIGHT! FIGHT! FIGHT!

and Adams , he has maybee 2 good years left by that time the ultra athletic Whimper should be ready!

......... ,but in getting him, you're weaking divisional foes Dallas oline, you're strengting yours with moving Diehl back inside where he would be a prenial all pro, and you need to change up year to year or teams will call your number after a while also. This is why I think this would be a good move!

&&&&&&&&&&&&

I also think we should've pursued Gaither in supplement draft, giving up a 4th rounder Mckenzies starting to flash signs of aging and even though Gaither is a LT his massive body would fill in nicely at RT also. And we should get more for Ryan Grant based on performance

*** herers some draftees I would like to get

Here we are at 10-5 -1st seed wildcard in our last game against the undefeated New England Patriots

In order for the GMEN to beat the PATS they'll need Ahman Bradshaw and Steve Smith to get involved in the underneath routtes in the passing game and to go with a one two punch of big bruiser Jacobs and cant get me off my feet I'll finish you speed, shifty game changing potential rookie Bradshaw.

The 2nd THING that's important is to get a 5 man rush 5th man comming from any direction up the middle to beat the PATS then they'll have to double cover and blanket Moss and not get beat to bad by Welker ghosting welker with a saftey or LB

The first two scenario's giving the game doesn't get out of hand fast on the GIANTS are practical the last covering New England's recievers easier said then done!! especially with the GIANTS secondary. BUT THE GOOD NEWS IS THIS IS A "TEAM" FOLKS!! They proved that last week against all odd's tornado's and tsumami's spitting in there face down 14-0 they rallied back!

The GIANTS dont owe it to the league to beat the Patriots and not rest there players !
If the game is competive til and not out of hand the GIANTS game plan New England's recievers well and are in striking distance than yes!!!Go 4 it

But if they're down by 10 or 15 or more the way the Patriots can score come 2nd or 3rd Quarter, We need to rest our player for Tampa Bay

************good luck Men!

DEFINING GAME

2007-12-04T09:03:00.000-08:00

DEFINING GAME
written on 12, Decembre, 2007

....it would've been nice if Derrick Ward was playing and competed with Bryan Westerbrook the way Tiki had

But he's NOT unfortunately his season ended on his career best day last week with a fractured fibula {get well Derrick, and nice job}

Now enter Brandon Jacobs rushed back from a hamstring

this is his and Coughlin and the current regimes "defining game"

You will know what you got from the GIANTS after today!

Whether they're legitamate contenders viable to compete with Dallas's and Grenn Bay's and to a lesser degree Seatle's or just pretenders

Jacobs has to step up big, he's been nice thus far, but he hasn't hit that NEXT LEVEL!

Like Stephen Jackson and filled his complete bill

We shall see , hope and prey???

IT WAS THE RIGHT MOVE! ......AND THANK GOD WE GOT WARD BACK

2007-12-04T07:18:00.000-08:00

GIANTS ARE NOW 8-4

AND 2 GAMES UP IN THE
WILDCARD,

ALOT OF FANS QUESTION WHETHER THE G-MEN
SHOULD'VE TOOK A KNEE AND RAN OUT THE CLOCK , INSTEAD OF GOING FOR THE TD WITH
1:30 AND A TIMEOUT LEFT FOR THE BEARS?

I think IT WAS THE RIGHT MOVE! ......AND THANK GOD WE GOT WARD BACK
Reply Quote Delete Edit Favorites Contact Going fot the TD instead of taking a knee running down the clock was the right move, how many times in GIANT history have we seen the GIANTS try to be passive only to shoot themselves in the foot? "Joe Pizark fumble bring up any memmories?"

I dont agree with what Coughlin does all of the time, I especially question Off-Cord Gilbride,
But the way they ran that was perfect, It showed great confidence in their defense "what message would have it been to the defense if they didn't go for it and tried to run out the clock?"

And thank God that Ward played again, I would still like to see more of Bradshaw however, and what a tackle on Devin Hester on special teams by Blackburn.

.......we will miss Ward what luck on his career game he breaks his leg out for the rest of reg season most likely, dumb luck , but did you see the confidence level rise from the recievers when he was commanding from the backfield with Eli, it was like a totally different team, like Tiki was still here

*****P.S.

I see alot of GIANT fans thinking we have Philly next week, that it is a gimme game oh no...Philly is still 5-7 and dangerous especially at home! I doubt that we'll see 12+ sacks again next week. Expect a very tough game next week we're still struggling "it speaks volumes we won against another struggling team Da Bears whom are more talented than what they are playing or there record indicates, just like we are!".

****The best chances ...I see to win in the next 4 weeks are against Washington at home, and than the following week @ Buffalo the week after!
If it comes down to the last week against the Patriots (((O'H DRAMA!))) ...than again "ANY GIVEN SUNDAY?"

I say Yes to the fans who think "Philly" will be any gimme game because of erratic play of Philly's backup QB AJ Feely..... but remember Eli also has 6 Int and 2 fubles in the last 2 games as well... And only one wideout and NOT on the same page as Shockey?

If we had a healthy Plax, Jacobs and Ward, normally I'd agree with you

remember The Eagles can get after the QB also! They're almost a mirror image of us without the fancy reciever we have, and they still have Brian Westerbrook who should play this time out!

*?* Maybee we have Westerbrook Jr. in Bradshaw? but he wont get any kind of reg playing time until he learns how to pic up the blitz

** this isn't a gimme by no stretch!

Vikings - 41 ~ ny GIANTS - 17

2007-11-25T20:41:00.000-08:00

GIANTS are NOW 7-4 after a 41-17 shallacking by the Vikes and, They're blaming Eli, yet they knew they were comming up against a team that's strong up the middle, that they wern't going to run up the middle on, that they were going to have to hit the edges and roll out Eli and throw some screens in there!

And where were these screens , roll outs , run off takles? Reuben Droughns play after play getting stopped up the middle is what I saw, Eli back peddling with no Plax to throw to? and double and tripple coverages on Shockey and Toomer!

The only time when the team seemed to spark is when Ahman Bradshaw was out there and ran off tackle away from the interior pursuit.

Once again it isn't Eli's fault!
It's the fault of unimaginative playcallers, calling the plays on offense!
Bill Cowher for 2009 , I only hope they keep Spags though

mlive.com reports that--> http://www.mlive.com/lions/index.ssf/2007/11/winning_four_more_wont_be_easy.html

Lions head coach Rod Marinelli called Sunday's game against the New York Giants a "statement game" and quarterback Jon Kitna said, for all intense and purposes, the Lions playoff season begins with the Giants.

just like small market teams against the Yankee's the Lions have something to prove to the entire NFL, and that they're not the same ole Lions! .......And who better than the NY GIANTS in primetime stage?

iT iSnT "ELi's" FauLT

2007-11-13T12:54:00.001-08:00

It isn't ELi's fault? Yes he makes mental mistakes sometimes and doesn't always hit his check down man and forces it to one reciever.

The offensive playbook is as thick as National Enquirer Magazine on the supermarket checkout line!

How long did it take to get Amani Toomer into the game?
He didn't catch a pass until his trademark ...attack the middle of the crease, early 4th quater

When's the last time you seen Simorice Rice spliting the seems? I'm begging to think it isn't his fault his underuse, but the fault of an unimaginative staff?
And Plaxico Burress was non-existant against Dallas Nov. 11,
OK OK to be fair he has been hurt

But why no three reciever set's...... flooding an area? And sending a reciever to another?
No intricate plays! at all!

When's the last time you've seen the GMEN run a screen or flood the underbelly of a defense with RB's sending recievers deep?

The 2 delay of games penalty was because, Eli saw something in the Dallas's defensive fold that their offense wasn't ready for.

I said long ago. In order for the GMEN to win they need to get Ahman Bradshaw pictured above into the mix!

Before Game Comments from yours truly ----->

In this writers opinion ... We Need to get Westbrook Jr. "Ahman Bradshaw" involved, and go to 5 defensive backs to cover Whitten "ghost him" put an extra Corner in at knickel/saftey , we have enough of a pass rush to go with 4 downlimeman and one or two LB's no matter how massive the Cowgirls OLINE is!
http://mondaymornqb.blogspot.com/2007/11/jints-brandon-jacobs-i-hate-dallas_01.html

look what Westerbrook did to the Skin's this week?

And here is an exerpt of how I answered another blogger question Tom or Tiki-->
http://www.nytdblue.com/2007/09/tiki-or-tom.html

Like Tony Dungy said after Indys suprise rookie RB perfomance in replacing Joseph Addai this week. "It isn't the running the ball that's only a small part of it. but it's picking up the blocks, catching passes, running routtes that's also important. The GIANTS seem to be lacking although both Ward and Jacobs have been very good this year. I'm not one that beliewves it's the just the system What the GIANTS lack is a Brian Westbrook type player that both Ward and Jacob's isn't, but Tiki very much was and than sone

BUT, where was our running game for the 2nd straight week?

OK OK I know Ward's numbers arent terrible 80 yards 100 something all purpose verse the EAGLES and he's playing with a sore ankle, but no consitency (AND...what happened to the screen pass?) and we cant get a "key 1st down running or run out the clock which almost cost us versers the SKINS , if our life depended it on it (4 rushing 1st downs versee THE EAGLES?)

as good as a job as DIEHL is doing in pass protection and the entire unit for that matter , they're struggling with run blocking just a bit , putting more pressure on ELI (via 2nd quarter interception/

forced pass... against the EAGLES)

I have to attribute it to we dont have a true slashy cut back against the grain runner (SEE TIKI IS A GOD POST~>
http://mondaymornqb.blogspot.com/2007/09/giants-just-want-to-have-fun.html )......... that would compliment our line which doesn't get a push or many knockdown blocks , but rather gets hats on defenders,

which is also attributed to DIEHL moving outside yes he's done a wonderfull job at Left tackle, but were weaker interior now.

what do you think? How can we fix this ?

GIANTS just want to have FUN!

2007-09-26T17:25:00.000-07:00

Have you noticed that the first two games the team played tight?

That this week with the media circus that was Antonio Pierce horn blowing prank (and Tiki was absolutely right reguarding A.P.'s unprofessionalism) but it was LOOSER! an us vs. them mentality

Now I'm not campaigning for Cowher and not neccarily against Coach Coughlin, but yes Cowher was a yeller , you had to do it his way! But at the same time, he encouraged "individualism"!

ROTFLLLL -->

BUT

(Tiki Barber)quote; he took the fun out of the game

when commenting on Coach Tom Couglin

Tiki is a G0D!
I cant help to think that if Tiki were playing this sunday against the skins, and I know he's not! That he would've picked up that critical 1st down on the GIANTS 11 yard line that Ward didn't in 4th Quarter vs. Skins with 1.26 left,

I think Ward is a servicable back, and is best utilized in spurts and not as a starter , as he struggled all game (partly the OLINE's fault and Skins stingy "D", Ward only had his spurts in 2nd and 3rd Quarters, I kept hoping that they would put Droughns in, boy didn't REUBEN looked juiced? and/or put Bradshaw in for a "spell".

Even though Bradshaw has fumbling issues.

I think Couglin is a very good teacher of fundemental's and a very good practice coach, he's best suited for a specialty coach running backs/ recievers etc. etc. , but is clueless at game time as his Offense does what they want!

keep your comments that Tiki isnt comming back to yourselves , I'm not asking for him back, maybee well be able to get the tougher yards when Brandoiser comes back , lets hope he's a juiced as Droughns was against the Skins, because I havent seen that fire from him yet! and I know he has it!

I am also thinking the GIANTS "D" looks better with Tuck, and Kiwi on the line rather than Kiwi at LB with Blackburn at MLB/ROLB , Pierce at MLB/ROLB and Torbor-De'Beossie at LOLB, and Ross learning at CB scratch Webster = bust!

Barber said; "Now that [the Giants] are struggling, first of all he runs away from it early in the week and now he's refusing to answer questions by being completely disrespectful to a group of people who are just trying to do their job," Barber said on his show, according to the media reports. "That's the job of media, ask the question. And you don't have to answer it. But don't be rude."

Sharpe, on his show, called the behavior "childish" and "totally uncalled for," according to the New York Daily News. "That's ridiculous. Are you 14? Or are you 28, 29, making millions of dollars to play a kid's game? And you act like this?"
Pierce was not amused when reporters relayed Barber and Sharpe's comments

it isnt our CORNERS that's the problem ............it's the the defensive system and cordinator! .............Spags was NOT the defensive cordinator he was 3rd or 4th down the food chain aa a junior defensive backs coach, NOT everyone is Eric Mangini GET a REAL Def cordinator please!!!

our corners battled the last two games I mean they shut out Owens for the majority of the game and didn't yet get beat 1 on 1 down the sideline's deep in either game as Plax has burned other teams, And Ross i think played a pretty solid game and made two or three nice plays!

The problem is the safteys are out of position constantly and the Linebacker's look confused , we are getting beat in the middle of the field by tight ends running backs, and reciever's......... a Saftey and LB responsibilty

And were NOT getting ANY Defensive Pass rush theres only so long a cover man can stick to a reciever if you give a QB that much time, a reciever going to eventually create seperation--> ( did you see how Greenbay's OLINE the real MVP of the game "the MVP wasn't Farve it was GB OLINE , Dallas too previos week" HOW they dominated our passrush?)

and did you see our defense on the sidelines early 4th Quarter on the sidelines Stahan Osi Pierce looks demoralized uninspired like beaten dogs (forget LT lets run it like a mad pack of dogs) the Giant defense were dogs today , a bunch of beaten down dogs that is!

AOL sportsblog "The Fanhouse: reports GIANTS intrested in Chris Simms #2

I told Jerry and even said it long ago in an old thread that we should puruse him "Simms" or Jay Feilder , it looks as if Eli will play this week, but if he ever does go down for a significant period were in trouble,

note;

In no way am I considering him a replacement for Eli,

Eli is our starter, however his "Simms" mere presense will keep Eli on his toes.

http://sports.aol.com/fanhouse/2007/09/12/giants-to-bucs-so-how-about-chris-simms/#comments

and P.S. where was Sinorice Moss? vs the Cowboys

it's apparent we need LB and saftey........... and if we can a shut down corner

......... then maybee DL/OL depth 1st and foremost in upcomming draft.

But I think we could find a offensive weapon-steal if you will--> somewhere between rounds 3 and 5 , Maybee a guy like Fla States Anton Smith 4.23-40/ RB whos electric everytime he touches the ball and can play slot and 3rd down back as well, and be a threat in open space. Because Ahman Bradshaw is a grinder with cuts and short area quickness, and Derrik Ward is 2nd string back "a good 2nd string back" but still a 2nd string back!

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

and here's a question from an old post , never answered too the moderators or anyone knowledgeable to help me on??? -->

I would like mostly to hear from Modds/admins here , they seem to be the only ones with football logic and not out to act like an idiot....not to be elitist but there are ONLY a few GOOD posters such as myself..

OK on the Oline Pettigout was only an adequate LT agreed! Diehl is a much better and vesatile athlete there is no doubt there!

But the GIANTS are so much better and stronger with him "Diehl" at LG and someone else at LT

now here is my question WHAT ABOUT THE GIANTS MAKE THEM BETTER IN LOOKING AT OTHER TEAM'S ROSTERS of------------> THEN LETS SAY 18 to 20 other non playoff teams??? In looking at there roster as opposed to Wash or Tampa or Atl or Buffalo and Clev lastly for instance???

Why not Jarod Gaither at worst he can play RT being a massive human being @ 6'9" 345.

O.K. Guy Whimper is an athlete but he's unproven a complete project! G-D forbid Diehl goes down or/ Kareem Mc'Kenzie the GIANTS have Adam Koetz and Guy Whimper to replace them YIKES!

@ WORST Gaither could've game them bench depth , I mean they have Richard Seubert starting. He should be a goal line FB an extra lineman at BEST on any good "COMETITIVE" team with depth, All Gaither would've cost was a 5th rounder it turns out?

I suggest the GIANTS look for OLINE depth and secondary help after final team cuts! Other than that the team looks to be a cometive 9-7 type team this year only time will tell?

CAN COWHER BE FAR BEHIND? GM J.R. GIVING TOM TERRIFIC A REASONABLE CHANCE?

1st preseason - basically it was a disaster , the only positive aspect I got from the GIANTS 1st preseason loss to Caralina 24-21 was the RB Ward , and Droughns

read about it here http://boards.giants.com/forums/thread/391242.aspx

I think the GIANTS made a huge mistake NOT drafting Jarod Gaither http://mondaymornqb.blogspot.com/2007/07/off-season-moves-tom-coughlin.html

Now you can cover up upfront defeciencies with skill players , but the GIANTS OLINE is much weaker moving Diehl who I'm sure will be an adequate left tackle. Moving him away from guard and having noone really to replace him at guard. The GIANTS looked confused at times on the blitz especially the left side!

On defense I dont know about this rookie Spagnola , but they were out of place misdirected and I believe the Mathis Kiwinaku project at LB is going to be a BUST!

Kiwi all through the ranks was never a run stopper!
and looks badly out of place at the sam LB

GAMES ARE WON ON D-FENSE or at LEAST with "DEFENSE"

I seriously would like to see the Giants go to a 3/4 with LDE William Josephs / NT Fred Robbins / RDE Jay Alford / - LOLB Reggie Torbor / ILB Antinoio Pierce / ILB Chase Blackburn / ROLB -Osi Umenora /

with fill in LB outside ~~0r~~ in with Kawika Mitchell and on 3rd down passing down's--> DE Mathis Kiwinuka

screw what the players want!!!
Michael Strahan (who is still a holdout "can you blame him?") "As Quoted from AOLsports " I need Eli to win now. I may not have another couple of seasons"

****One things for sure Eli will mature this year, with that defense and probably having to come from behind throwing the ball on every down!

it might be a very long season?

but maybee the best thing for them to grow and to refuel in the draft?

FROM A PAST POST---> JACOBS ISNT TIKI,

part of what made tiki special was the fact he could
and would hide behind his OL being 5'8" although listed at 5'10" he had this
luxary to wait for blocks to develop and cut back aGAINST THE grain with his
superior vision ,

The G-MENS OLine .. is not designed like KC's it's more like Denvers

AND COMMING BACK FROM ACL MAY SIT TO SMITH AND MOSS WHO ARENT

Carl Banks: Brandon Jacobs Can Put Up Larry Johnson Type Numbers

Can Brandon Jacobs
replace Tiki
Barber? That is a question you've probably heard about 1,000 times already
this offseason. Every where you turn, another media personality is pointing to
Jacobs, not Eli
Manning, as the guy who will make of break the Giants season.
However, when talking to former players or current teammates, the one thing they
seem least worried about is Brandon Jacobs. Defensive end Osi Umenyiora
believes "a
lot of teams will be in a lot of trouble" when the Giants run Jacobs. Tight
end Jeremy
Shockey went as far as to say "he
every intangible possible; I am excited to see him play." Even former Giants
superstar Frank
Gifford shared thoughts on Jacobs, saying "he
could be spectacular." That theme continued this morning on Sirius Satellite
Radio when former Giants linebacker Carl Banks added his two cents.

"[Brandon Jacobs] could bring Larry Johnson type numbers to the
Giants," Banks said.

Talk about high praise! Larry Johnson is
arguably the best running back in the NFL, so even being mentioned in the same
breath as him is impressive. And while I do not actually expect Johnson type
numbers, I've stated time and time again that 1,200-1,400 yards with 10-13
touchdowns is a very real possibility. Giants' fans have every reason to believe
in this guy; he's going to be quite a suitable replacement for Tiki Barber.

1. Just another reason why football is a stupid sport. Jacobs can easily
replace Tiki. Johnson easily replaced Priest Holmes. Stephen Jackson replaces
Faulk and on and on and on. There is no such thing as talent in football, just
parts. This doesn't happen in any other sport. Would Mikael Pietrus replace
J-Rich's 20ppg? Would Damien Wilkins all of a sudden replace Ray Allen? And
don't even get me started on rookies and the draft. Moss, one of the best WR
ever, for a 4th round pick?? The fact that late draft picks are worth more than
proven vets is ridiculous.

2. Isn't Brandon Jacobs enormous for a running back? Larry Johnson is 6'1".
Tiki Barber is 5'10". Jacobs being 6'4" has to be an issue. That being said,
dude could rush for a lot of touchdowns.

3. there musn't be anything to write about in Giants land . . . this is the
third or fourth Brandon Jacobs blog in the last couple of weeks. #1 - no, he
will not come close to replacing Tiki #2 - yes, he will get short yardage
touchdowns #3 - nobody will be making a season out of it in New York. Tiki
pulled them through it, Strahan is washed up, and if Plex and Shockey don't stop
pointing the finger, the Giants may as well draft a full team from scratch next
year.

4. Jacobs seems to have a lot of assets: size; speed; toughness; a mean
streak; and intelligence. But no one has seen him carry the ball 25 times in an
NFL game, catch a pass out of the backfield and break a long play, or get a
crucial first down midway through the 4th quarter when a season is on the line.
Maybe he's another Larry Johnson, but let's see him a bit before he's annointed.
And I don't care if he's fantastic, he still has a long way to go before the
team won't miss Tiki Barber. You just don't replace someone good for over 2,000
total yards who can kill you in so many ways. I have great hopes for Jacobs, and
expect him to be a stud. I can imagine him (and don't forget Droughns)
exhausting a defense late in the game if the Giants have kept it close. I can
imagine the Giants breaking a team's will in the last 20 minutes of a game if
the Giants are ahead by sending Jacobs at them on every series. But let's not
fool ourselves into thinking that he and Tiki are interchangeable. I've watched
the Giants since 1952. Tiki Barber is the best back they had in those 55 years
and I don't think we'll see another like him for many years. If Jacobs can give
them 80% of what Tiki represented, that will be great, and probably enough to
build a winning team. But let's not go crazy here.

5. As someone who just made Jacobs the 2nd RB on his fantasy team, this is a
very good post.

6. Why is it people feel the need to immediately replace Tiki? It took Tiki
years to become the Tiki we know. It wasn't automatic. Nobody goes to a new team
or is elevated to a starter and produces the kind of numbers that Tiki did. It's
asinine to even have this discussion. But since we are, another thing to think
about is that we really don't need to replace his production. The Giants simply
need to be consistent in the passing game. The running game will take care of
itself. So what if Jacobs and Droughns don't equal Tiki's production? Is that
the measure of a successful season? Last time I checked, it was wins and losses.
Tiki has already been replaced. Let's move on, shall we?

7. The only negative I have seen in Brandon, sometimes runs to erect. He's
easy to spot when running between the Tackles. One of his assets is, he runs
faster then he looks to be, very deceptive. He has done very well in the last
two years, I only see him getting better, now that he will be the Feature Back.
About putting up Larry Johnson numbers, It is possible, only because he will be
new to opposing Defenses. He runs at people, he should be learning how to slip
tackles instead of carrying 3 or 4 Defenders, while picking up those extra
yards. Comparing Backs is very difficult, each has their own way of getting the
job done but, if Brandon puts up LJ numbers, many Giant fans won't mind at all.

8. T200, good points, but I don't think anyone is making exactly the point
you argued against. Of course the team has to move on. Tiki is gone. But my
point was that I'm not prepared to go goo-goo eyed over Jacobs until I see him
do something on the field that he hasn't yet done. Let's not anoint him a star
running back based on what his teammates say based on spring workouts. As for
the secrets to wins and losses, it's not the passing game. It's the execution of
the running game that sets up the passing game; the passing game that sets up
the running game; the defense that gains field position and takes pressure off
the offense; the special teams; the play-calling; etc. But most football people
will tell you that the core of any winning team is a good running game and a
strong defense. The Giants had the first but not the second last year. They
started to build toward the second by moving Kiwi and through the draft, but
still have to prove they now have the first and are still at least a year away
from a strong defense. Is there a chance that Jacobs and the kid from Marshall
give them a really good running game in the next few years? Of course. Is there
a chance that Jacobs is never going to be elusive enough to be the #1 back on a
championship team? Absolutely. It is way too soon to judge anything. Let's see
what he can do when defenses stack up against him. I hope he's great, but I will
definitely reserve judgment.

9. Jacobs certainly looked good at times last year, but I think the bigger
question for his success (and the Giants') is the offensive line. I'm staring at
the OL depth chart right now and I don't see much indication that they'll be
more than just average. I think Jacobs is a good back but if his blocking isn't
there you won't be able to tell.

10. Giant Football Is on your ACE... do you think he will be able to put up
Gore type #'s though? In my opinion Gore of the 49ers will again be the RB to
conted with as far as any fantasy numbers go. Check out http://www.crazydaddy.net/

11. Fanfor55... Thanks for your post and thoughts. I was particularly arguing
against the notion that the Giants have to replace Barber and whether or not
Brandon Jacobs can do it. My point was very few first-time starting RBs have
exceptional years in their first year of starting. Asking whether Jacobs, in his
first year starting, can duplicate Tiki's numbers is just ridiculous to me. The
other point about the passing game and the running game was that, between the
two, the passing game needs more work. That needs to be the primary focus of the
offense as far as getting it to perform at an optimal level. With Jacobs,
Droughns, and Bradshaw, I think the running game is in far better shape than the
passing game. That's why I said the running game will take care of itself. Talk
about the Giants here: http://www.ny-footballgiants.com/ http://www.giantsfans.net/

14. JACOBS ISNT TIKI, part of what made tiki special was the fact he could
and would hide behind his OL being 5'8" although listed at 5'10" he had this
luxary to wait for blocks to develop and cut back aGAINST THE grain with his
superior vision , The G-MENS OL is not designed like KC's it's more like Denvers
and NOT for the power running game , I cant see Jacobs matching LJ's numbers let
alone Tiki's as he runs to high and being 6'5" how long did Eddie George last?
the other person that draws comparisons to Jacobs? from --> http://boards.giants.com/forums/1/367029/ShowThread.aspx ***WE
LOST NOT ONLY A GOOD PLAYER BUT A GREAT PLAYER IN TIKI**** WED BE 6-10 LAST YEAR
W/O TIKI LETS BE REAL NOW HE SINGLE HANDELY WON BOTH GAMES AGASINST WASHINGTON
AND ANOTHER I CANT THINK OF OFFHAND!!! **ALSO NOTE; EVEN WHEN TIKI DIDNT GET THE
BALL COMMING OUT OF THE BACKFIELD ON PASSROUTES HE DREW ATTENTION OFF SHOCKEY
AND DREW A SAFTEY'S ATTENTION, SHOCKEY WONT HAVE THAT LUXARY THIS YEAR???

15. Great article Dan! As always you're grounded and realistic. Jacobs is
going to be a very sucessful back in the NFL. I call him 'The Beast Released'.
Jacobs is a monster. He's faster than Tiki. He's naturaly a brueser but he's
actually quite allusive when he wants to be. Jacobs has shown some great cuts if
you watch film. He will be just fine. Droughns will be nice because when he's in
there the defense wont get a break. Bradshaw will be a perfect scat style third
down back like Tiki was when he first was drafted. That's a solid RB core if you
ask me.

WE NEED A STUD ON "D" I THINK I SHOULD BE "D" CORDINATOR SERIOUSLY

2007-06-30T10:39:00.000-07:00

We need help on "D" Strahan very much capable is getting old its good they're stackpiled at the DT position "competition"?

I'm not to pleased with the weakside LB position or there run blitz scheme's I'd like to be the defensive cordinator badly ,

How do you not start Chase Blackburn the kids a JAR HEAD lives breathes football from the same vein as Bill Romonwski , Did you see the play where he blitzed Garcia Last year? and practically flew over a running back chop block and an offensive lineman to sack the QB ,

OK he's not Ulracher but he plays with the same intensity, and who knows?every time he's in there he makes a play sorta like Teddy Bruschi has a nose for the ball

OK OK Pierce is a unexpendable valuble piece of the team , and capidon on Defense , but you have to find somewhere to play Blackburn I'm not to high on Kawika Mitchell on SOLB , I dont know who else you can place here?

personally I'd put Pierce here and back him up with Wilkerson also giving Mathis a look here once in a while and put Blackburn at MLB ,

Pirece can still be Cap. of defense from ROLB

And who not go after Donovan Darius a heavy hitter all pro crfedential saftey a poor man's Brian Dawkins?or even Tank Johnson a mountain of a man in the middle with also BEARS playbook in his head still???

Do the GIANTS not want to win???Maybee they're looking to dump this season and fire Coughlin???????????I'm ok with Diehl temporary short term on the Left OT HOWEVER I'm not ok with the RB situation and lack there of FB ---> http://boards.giants.com/forums/thread/362318.aspx

WHY NOT? GO BACK TO 3-4 GLORY?

WHY NOT??? on occasions and since you're so high on Torbor on this board, make him the ROLB

you'd have Kiwi , Blackburn , Pierce and Torbor that's pretty formidble Piecre and Blackburn make up whatever Torbor lacks against the pass in coverage............ You know Kiwi is going to be all around and Torbor can go blitz happy

................and in-front Stahan, Robbins and Umeniora with occsionaly replacing either ILB with another SS that's a pretty good defense I dont know?

1 absolutely hate the signing of Mitchell should've gotten both Joey Porter and also Bly at CB .........and Daruis too, instead of letting Al Davis steal another FA from us like they did with RhodesWe have to get a GIANT pride back and the way to do it is make this LB heaven again

RUN BABY RUN

2007-06-26T03:05:00.000-07:00

ELI'S GOING TO NEED ALL THE HELP HE CAN GET!!!

GET MIKE HART
(IF YOU CAN NEXT DRAFT) . . . . . . . ***

*** OR Quentin Griffin !!!!
WHO IS AN ELLUSIVE CUT BACK RUNNER
"UNSIGNED" ONE TIME SLATED TO BE NEXT STAR RB IN DENVER RUNNING MACHINE
DROUGNS IS A GOOD 3RD ALTERNATIVE

WATCHING JACOBS ON RECENT FILM (TRAING CAMP) HE STOPS AND LEANS UPRIGHT WHEN HE SHIFTS OR CHANGED CUTBACK DIRRECTION TOO MUCH!!! NOT SMOOTH, HE DEF IS FAST , BIG STRONG...... BUT NOT A TRUE CUT BACK RUNNER .

. SO I GUESS ITS PRETTY CLEAR-------- I'm not sold completely on a
Jacobs/ Reuban Droughns backfiield. They wouldn't had this problem had they
signed Dominik Rhodes and his winning ways taking with him a very familiar to
winning ways of Eli's S.B. winning Q.B. brother Peyton , and system to New York
.

Part of what made Tiki so "special" besides his great vision and
natural cut back ability, Was his

patience waiting for the blocks to develop and
being 5 foot 8 although listed at 5 foot 10---> The second level defenders wouldn't
be able to see him as he hid behind his blockers waiting for a crease to open.
.

. . Brandon at 6 foot 5 and Reuben at 6 foot even dont have that luxury and
are straight ahead bashing runners more suited for a smashmouth styleAnd the
Giants O-line although one of the best is a leverage and speed offensive line
not a power line!
WHAT DO YOU THINK?
FIRE TOM COUGHLIN?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ok heres a "slight retraction" on post above
june 30, 2007 12:45 P.M.

OK i changed my mind on Bradshaw --> http://boards.giants.com/forums/thread/362318.aspx
http://video.yahoo.com/video/play?vid=1113559207&fr=yfp-t-501

I think it was a misprint that he ran 4.66 because in two other publications I read he actually ran a 4.55 big difference!!!

And he looked very good on tape instinctive , with a nose for the end zone and probably woul've went 3 or 4th round if wasn't for some charecter issues ranked in my book "as of now higher than booker and wolfe"

why put some stiff at FB? why not put jacobs there? and have your best 2 running threats on the field at the same time? aka "THUNDER & LIGHTNING PART 2-2007" ?

BOTH Droughn and Bradshaw can block. At least they say in draft report "Bradshaw" can block, is a decent blocker......we know Droughns is...........

and BJ blocking for half back would make Jacobs that much a better runner learning cut back lanes and all and also program him to stay low in his block which translates into his runs?

They should've done this last year when Tiki was there

it makes sense isnt why they put Kiwi at LB other than the need to fill a need was to put there best players on the field at the same time?

so???????? WHY NOT JACOBS AT FB DROUGHNS/ BRADSHAW AT HB

DRAFT 2007

2007-04-27T19:56:00.000-07:00

Draft 2007

I hope the GMEN can somehow get Darrell Revis the Corner but if they cannot , I'm not totally sold on Paul Pozurlynski ( THE POZ ) I think The POZ will be a very good player BUT ONLY in the "RIGHT SYSTEM" he's more a luxury pick a 3-4 inside LB and probably be an excellent special teamer and role player

THE GIANTS pressing needs are at corner ,OT ( even Jerry Reese isn't sold on David Deihl to LEFT OT

I think the 2 biggest mistakes was letting go of both Luke Pettigout and Carlos Emmons
all other releases were justified

I think the GIANTS will be OK
I REALLY LIKE CHASE BLACKBURNS INTESITY AND SPIRIT
I THINK HELL BE A FINE PLAYER with right TUTORLEDGE who knows?
maybee a star?

BUT OTHER THEN REVIS OR HOUSTON OR ANOTHER CORNER
AND A BIG NAME OT
AND A DT

I REALLY HOPEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

THE GIANTS EITHER CHOSE GARRET WOLFE WHO I THINK WOULD BE SUPER REPLACEMENT FOR TIKI ON 3RD DOWN
AND OR
KENNY IRONS OR BOTH!!!!

OFF COURSE AN IMPACT PLAYER OR A CORNER OFFENSIVE TACKLE OR DEFENSIVE TACKLE AND I ALSO LIKE TED DiBIASES SON AROUND 5TH OR 6TH ROUND IF AVAILABLE

AND CORNER, OT/DT AND/OR IMPACT LB IS MORE PRESSING A NEED BUT.................

I'm not sold completely on a Jacobs/ Reuban Droughnsbackfiield
They wouldn't of had this problem had they signed Dominik Rhodes and his winning ways taking a very familiar to Eli "WORKING WITH HIS SB WINNING BROTHER PEYTON" AND winning ways and system to New York )

Part of what made Tiki so succesful besides his great vision and natural cut back ability Was his patience waiting for the blocks to develop and being 5 foot 8 although listed at 5 foot 10 the second level defenders wouldnt be able to see him as he hid behind his blockers waiting for a crease to open

Giants Webster: 'It's a Fresh Start For Me'

Posted Mar 28th 2007 7:58AM by Dan Benton
Filed under: NY Giants, NFC East, New York

When Tim Lewis was finally fired by the Giants there was a collective sigh of relief around New York. Players and fans alike knew that the right choice had finally been made and that we could all move on from his horrible play calling. Most thrilled with the move was cornerback Corey Webster.

Webster was considered a very good press corner at LSU. In fact, it was one of the very reason the Giants drafted him in the first place. Unfortunately when Tim Lewis took over that was thrown out the window. Lewis tried to force Webster into being a Cover-2 corner, something he just couldn't do. Eventually it led to Lewis tearing Webster apart publicly and any remaining confidence Webster had being totally shot. Now, with Lewis out of the picture, Corey will get another chance.

"Hopefully, it'll be a fresh start for me," cornerback Corey Webster said Tuesday. "It's a chance to really show what I can do ... Sometimes [the past two years], I got mixed signals. I didn't really know what the coaching staff was asking for. It's never a good thing when a player and the coach aren't on the same page. We're all here to win."

I've been very critical of Webster to date, but in all fairness he had been used incorrectly. The Giants have shown their confidence in him and will give him another chance to prove his worth with new defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo.

1. Corey Webster, along with Eli Manning and Jeremy Shockey, are shining examples of how bad coaching or being surrounded by inferior talent can ruin good players. Webster was an excellent cover corner in the SEC in college. That means, folks, he was shutting down a good number of receivers who are now in the NFL. Then he comes to the Giants, with excellent size and speed, and has to play Cover-2 because Tim Lewis was committed to it both for good reasons (to cover for lack of speed in the defensive backfield and linebackers) and bad (because it is the "defense de jour" in the NFL and Lewis was hoping to ride it to a head coaching job). So now we'll get to see how he does when he is given a chance to join Gibril Wilson as the core of what will be a largely young defensive backfield that should mature in a year or two when sprinkled with good draft picks and a few free agency pickups.
The 2006 offensive scheme (too much passing and from very predictable offensive situations and sets) put way too much pressure on a young quarterback and took Shockey out of the "danger zone" for the defense way too often (so he could block inside). I guarantee that if Roethlisberger or Rivers had to play out of that scheme they would have people howling at them just like the fans at the Meadowlands who have given up on Eli. Over the next two years, with decent coaching (not at all a given) the team will refocus on the run, make use of Eli's great play action moves, and see the offense improve considerably. But it is the defense that needs serious attention. Get young, get athletic, get tough, and create a scheme that fits your personnel. Thank goodness Tim Lewis is history. And pray for a great draft.

2. i like that, and i also believe the coaching is the problem

Posted at 4:50PM on Mar 28th 2007 by stiso24

3. I have to agree with you on this one. Play calling offensively was horrible, but defensively we needed the most work. The Giants couldn't get any team off the field on 3rd down, even 3rd and long. I'm really hoping Demps plays better than last year. He was the WORST safety in the league. By the way, who is this Mitchell guy that we signed? I haven't heard of him, but I can't remember any KC linebacker that was worth anything. Any input?

Posted at 9:37PM on Mar 28th 2007 by ROLEXUS24

4. Let's get the 4-12 year over with this year.. We can then watch Coughlin get thrown under the bus... We can then hire a real coach & become a team again.. I
haven't seen a coach & staff so bad since Rich Kotite left the jets... I totally agree with the first comments , Shockey is a total monster with Coughlin nitpicking his blocking... Come on...
