What others are saying about the Giants

Man the G-Men just look flat. They appear to be lazy and unmotivated. There is no drive to win. Bad attitude, bad coaching, no chemistry and injuries are killing the team! 4 losses in 4 weeks and no end in sight…… This team should be in first place in the conference and a sure lock for the playoffs. Instead they will be lucky to grab a wild card spot. So disappointing!

Been saying it all along — it’s the D players execution, not so much the plays.
They are flat, confused, and slow. Let’s look at the 3 games where the D ‘looked’
like champs — Bucs, Chiefs, Raiders — honestly, they didn’t look great. The other teams looked bad. The D-line still had trouble getting any real pressure, and if any of those teams had a half-decent QB throwing the ball, our DBs wouldn’t have fooled some into thinking we were world beaters. Yes, there were glimmers of Giant D in the SD game, sort’ve like sense memory — and still, the Chargers are NOT an elite team. This D needs a major overhaul.
This is not 2007, or the first half of 2008, they can’t get by on the memory vapors of past seasons, and we fans shouldn’t either. Hold your team accountable. Look at it with a cold, honest eye — it doesn’t mean you love them any less, I know I don’t, I love the Giants, for 40 plus years, but I’ve got a pretty good sense of when they will be up and when they will be down, always hoping for up, but when the facts are there, face ‘em,
embrace ’em, and talk about what can be done to fix the wrongs, it’s part of the fan experience. Now, sometimes I wish I could be blindly optimistic, ignoring the giant blemishes, being delusional in the face of reality, but it’s just not my nature.

Anybody who’s watched this team for the past four weeks has to be delusional to think they’ve got a shot at the playoffs. In this case it’s worth noting that another term for “wild card” is “joker” which about describes their level of play and “coaching.”
Look for lots of house cleaning when the season mercifully ends on Jan. 3.

I was at game and couldn’t really see 1st quarter FG snafu. But saw it on TV and Feagles and Tynes looked utterly lost, without any clue whatsoever, immediately after it occurred. Why wasn’t there some alternative, or at least, some planning as to what to do when this kind of inevitable situation occurs. This is not what being prepared means.

I just have a bad memory of the old Fassel days here, where the team “thinks” they are deserving of wins. I will say I was not pro-Coughlin, for a while, but I truly believe in this guy. He is not a one shot wonder like Gruden. However, the players seem so lost. With that said, aside from them losing how they did, they played well yesterday. That loss hurt the most of any this year. I also told my wife as soon as they scored the FG at the end that they would lose by 1…ugh.

Fire coughlin

I never thought that I would be posting a comment for the third time this year. I guess that says a great deal about our team. Little seems to be said when you are winning. Simple enjoyment suffices. Well, things are not going well for our team. As I have consistently reiterated in my past posts, this team would lose more games and I also felt that they were being beleaguered by a lack of confidence. What I did not believe was that the coaching staff would propagate that lack of confidence by not believing in their own team as well. They simply did just that. On the opening drive, not going for a fourth and one on the opposition’s twenty says a great deal. It is the opening drive. You are at home. Make a statement for heaven’s sake! If you do not make it, so what. The Chargers are staring from their twenty. More importantly though, the team is allowed to feel that their coaches BELIEVE in them. Even if these men are professionals, they are still just human. Late in the game, on what should have absolutely been the game crushing interception by TT, Gilbride lets a holding penalty turn him into an ultra conservative, and frightened coach. Good teams rarely do that. Great teams never do. He just ran scared, scared off by his own team.
The season is clearly in jeopardy, but it is not over. Does anyone remember last season, when the Eagles were doomed at week nine. Well, they came back to make the playoffs, and almost make it into the Super Bowl. I know that it is a tall task, but I still do believe that we can make the playoffs. We have three very tough games at home with the Cowboys, Eagles, and Falcons. These are games we must win. I do think that we can beat Denver, and I am hoping that Minnesota will have clinched well before we have to match up against Rice, Harvin, et al. If we win five of the next seven, we limp in as a wild card. If we win all seven, we are East champs. Yes, it will be tough. But remember, we will have two weeks of rest, perhaps a reenergized team, and maybe even Aaron Ross. Most importantly, we absolutely need to see a new coaching staff. Not necessarily, new coaches, but a new philosophy, a philosophy where the coaches start believing in their players. Once that cycle is there, the players will start believing in themselves. They need to elevate their game. Both sides of the line need to start playing with more energy and conviction, as they are both losing the battles in the trenches. This is not last years team, but it could be again. Dig down deep you Giant supporters, and hope that your team does the same.

   Scared football is the real reason the giants lost all four games. the short punting, they have no balls at short and goal they lack confidence in there running backs. they have the best players in the league.it is not the players as much as the coaches

They have some outstanding ones and maybe one or two who some might consider the best at their positions. If you mean overall or team average, I’d say that’s more than a bit of a stretch.
