I’ve tried. Even if he shuts out the next 3 teams, who’s he facing?

The redskins, albeit they’ve been better lately scoring, carolina, and the JV vikings.

I don’t know what to say…

I hope he figures it out, but I’ve been saying that for what, 13 games now?

But….another 30 points on the D yesterday…its just too much.

Sheridan is not the sole problem, no, but he’s a big part. What the hell it really is, I don’t know.

The only thing you can defend is the Giants are still breathing. They need Dallas to continue to piss their season away, and they have plenty to drink so that helps.

So…while the D obviously just shows no real signs of stopping a great offense like Philly…the Giants aren’t dead show Sheridan and the D can still…I dunno, just do something.

There is too much that has gone awry for us not to let BS go.

True, the players play. And the coaches coach. Somewhere, though, something has been lost in the translation from teacher to student.

The line gets no push and we get no pressure. The marquis players are comfortable with simply hugging the offensive linemen, with an occasional spin thrown in.

Canty was invisible as were many others.

Watching San Francisco shut down Arizona last night was proof of what a well devised scheme can do. Sheridan is lost, completely lost. This defense looks slower then congress. Tuck & Osi had their pictures on my milk carton this morning, they have been no-shows. This team has no heart, dropped passes, missed blocks, arm tackles, they are going through the motions.

needs to go but I was thinking that where do you we find a replacement?? Does it come in house? We see how well that worked this season.

To reiterate, with the talent that is on the defensive side of the ball they should be playing much better than they are and that is a player issue. The coaches prepare they players for everything they may face on Sunday but it is up to the players to go out and execute and that is where it has fallen short. Some one has to take the fall and it sure wont be all the defensive players…

I don’t think he always had the best schemes, but our defense just can’t seem to stop anybody. Even in obvious situations… Amazing to me how bad the red zone defense has been. These short-yardage/goal line situations that we fail on can’t really be blamed on Sheridan.
Our guys need to stand strong and play tougher, meaner, more physical “Giants defense” (like it used to be). I watched Osi and Canty not get near the QB, with a single guy blocking each of them for over 6 seconds. Jared Allen (or Strahan) would have been double-teamed, but still would have gotten at least some pressure if not a sack.

here’s some more defense of Sheridan.

The big Desean Jackson play…more of a result of Mike Johnson biting up in coverage. I dunno how Mike Johnson’s incompetence…which has been evident this year…should be faulted at Sheridan. Maybe he’s in his ear too much? I dunno

The Giants got stops on third down. To me…enough stops that it should’ve contained the Eagles.

The other big fault on defense was teh Boley fumble play. Osi got his sack/FF play…Boley dropped it (yea..in his palms…). No one picks teh ball up, when if they did…that’s a turnover people. The Eagles marched right down for a TD after that (30-17)

Goff INT…then the Eli Manning fumble. Is this Sheridan’s fault?

Boss dropped pass in the RZ…stupid 3rd down play….Eagles march right down…is this Sheridan’s fault?

Jacobs fumble returned for a TD…is this Sheridan’s fault?

DJAX Punt return for a TD…is this Sheridan’s fault?

…Yes the defense is not “elite”. They are more mediocre than atrocious tho.

Certain things like the offense not being able to capitalize when the Eagles couldn’t stop the Giants (Eagles D was a lot worse than the Giants’ Sunday night…)…this is more the reason for the loss.

WOULD EVERYONE PLEASE GET OFF BILL SHERIDAN’S CASE HE IS MAKING GREAT CALLS FOR THE MOST PART BUT WHEN THE PLAYERS DNT PLAY TO THEIR INTELLIGENCE AND ABILITY IT DOESNT MATTER WHO THE DC IS. BILL WAS ACTUALLY SPAGUNOLO’S FIRST CHOICE TO BE THE RAMS DC BUT TC SHUT THAT DOWN…….AS FOR THE PHILLY GAME A COVER 2 WOULDVE STOPPED JACKSON FROM THAT BIG PLAY BUT WHEN MICHAEL JOHNSON WHO IS NOT PLAYING LIKE HE DID LAST YEAR COMES OUT OF HIS ZONE TO BITE ON A BACK UP TE, HOW IS THAT SHERIDANS FAULT. I THINK THESE PLAYER OWE HIM AN APOLOGY BECAUSE THEY ARE MAKING HIM LOOK FOOLISH HE IS ONE OF THE BETTER MINDS IN FOOTBALL AND I HOPE HE IS THE DC FOR YRS TO COME…..HE DOESNT MAKE THE RIGHT CALL ALL THE TIME BUT THIS IS HIS FIRST YR BUT LAST I CHECKED MOST OF THE PLAYERS STARING ON DEFENSE ARE NFL VETS AND THEY SHOULD BE ASHAMED.

NOT TO MENTION EVERYONE COMPLAINS ABOUT LINEMEN DROPPING INTO COVERAGE GO BACK TO THE GREENBAY GAME IN 07 OSI WAS ALWAYS IN COVERAGE AND KIWI PLAYED LB FOR A YR SO HE IS NO STANGER TO COVERAGE ITS JUST THAT THERE IS NO INTENSITY AND YOU ARE A NO GOOD FAN IF U BLAME THE DC INSTEAD OF THE EFFORT FROM THE PLAYERS………….THE DC JOB IS OVER ONCE THE BALL SNAPS AFTER THAT THE GUYS IN JERSEYS HAVE TO DO SOMETHING

I just don’t understand. Bill Sheridan inherits a potential No.1 defense, and screws everything up! Now I know he doesn’t actually play, but it’s his job to put players in positions to succeed. Or talk to Coach Coughlin, and Jerry Reese to make upgrades in our secondary via the free agent pool. I kind of thought something was wrong when OSi left practice in the off season. Here’s a little advice from a fan. Go back to the scheme Steve Spagnolo brought to the defense, and bring glory back to big blue. I also believe Tuck should leave the commercials alone, and he and OSi need to get pressure on the Qb’s to help our depleted secondary.
