but running him up the gut.

SD’s run stopper is out for the season. Since then, they’ve been porous. I don’t know much about their linebackers, but i think they rated ours better. You know your lb’s suck when ours are better.

I hope we don’t audible out of some straight up the gut. Mendenhal, basically a rookie, but up 200 yards against them. Theres no way jacobs can’t get 100 yards this year.

On a sidenote, I’ll be at this game. The last game I went to was the eagles in the regular season last year. Hopefully no one else drops a wide open bomb this year.

As I said before our offense will be the key to winning this game..They need to “Hank Stram” the ball down the field on the ground and with short passes..We’ll need double digit clock consuming drives that result in points…and to be honest this is one week where I hope Eli runs the play clock down…anything that eats the time up and keeps Rivers and Co. off the field..and hopefully Tynes shows up this week with his “real leg” not that “prosthetic leg” he tends to show up with..and we need to do better in what I now regretably refer to as our “No Zone offense”.

Now that the regular season is halfway over I am still not sure why Moss is still a Giant ,I was holding out hope that Tyree would make the team not Moss.
Tyree was not a great receiver BUT he was a force to be reckoned with on kickoff and punt returns, normally drawing double coverage. I think they need to get some speed on kick off and punt coverage soon!!

we just don’t seem to have done a good job in disguising whre it is coming from. Eagles seem to be masters at that, and our D is descended from their scheme. Can’t understand why we fall so short on that issue.

Much too much is being made about Eli and the offense. Our main problem boils down to this – if CC Brown is just going to watch guys run past him and catch bombs, and this D is going to put us in a 27-3 hole in the first quarter every game – then that situation makes it very difficult for our offense to function when their D coordinator knows we are not to be pounding Jacobs up the middle to develop play-action whic h is the basis of our game plan.

If our D can be competitive, and make some STOPS in the first half to keep us in the game, then we will be fine. Unfortunately, with the current Safety situation, I don’t know how well we can do that unless Ross gets back on the field and we can slide someone over.

    1. Winning the coin toss. If the offense started out with a 0-0 game, they might not feel quite the pressure to throw deep and often, and take the time to get comfortable and into step.
     2. Involve the tight end in the short passing game EARLY. It’s part of a ball control offense, the Giants have a decent tight end, and it gives the defense something to do other than concentrate on Smith in passing situations.
    3. Run the ball until the Bolts show they can stuff it. If they don’t, repeat this step until they do.

How the hell the Giants defense become such a horrible blitzing team ? After adding Umenyora , Boley , Canty , also after being one of the top blitzing team under Spagnola with basically the same team minus those guys..Can anyone explain ?
