Giants Vs. Patriots: Five Things To Watch

PrintThe New York Giants travel to Foxborough to face the New England Patriots Sunday. You knew that already. What you don't know is what my weekly list of 'Five Things To Watch' is going to look like. Read on and find out.
1. Who The Heck Is Going To Play For The Giants? Looking at the Giants' injury report on Friday, Ralph Vacchiano tweeted: "So the #NYG may go into NE without their starting running back, center and fullback, their best receiver and best pass-rusher. ... Wow." Wow is right. The Giants might be without Ahmad Bradshaw, Hakeem Nicks, Jason Pierre-Paul, David Baas and Henry Hynoski, on top of all of the guys they have already been playing without. I am not nearly as worried as I probably should be, mostly because No. 10 is not on that list.
2. Giants' Running Backs: This is interesting no matter how it shakes out. If Ahmad Bradshaw drags himself onto the field it will be interesting to see how he can perform with the cracked bone in his foot. If Bradshaw doesn't play it will be interesting to see what Brandon Jacobs can do in his absence. Also if Bradshaw does not play it will be interesting to see how the Giants use D.J. Ware and Da'Rel Scott, and whether or not one of them can take advantage of the opportunity.
3. The Giants' Offensive Game Plan: New England is last in the league defending the pass, and Pittsburgh shredded the Patriots via the air a week ago. The obvious plan of attack would be for the Giants to try and duplicate that. In the 'Friday Five' this week, though, Pat Traina hinted at a possible surprise in the attack. Does that mean the Giants think they can exploit New England on the ground? We will have to wait and see.
4. How Do The Giants Defend Wes Welker? Corey Webster has been matching up with the opposition's best receiver in recent weeks. Will the Giants continue with that approach? Welker plays much more in the slot than the guys Webster has been covering, so again we will have to wait and see if the Giants change their approach.
5. What Will Perry Fewell Do? I think I know the answer to this, and I don't like it. I think Fewell is going to sit in three- and four-man rushes way too often, allowing Tom Brady to pick the Giants apart. The four-man rush can get to the quarterback at times, but the Giants can't let Brady sit in the pocket. That's a recipe for disaster. As Dan Dierdorf would say 'Release The Kraken.'

#5 is on point
But I am more concerned that BB has been watching the tapes of ppl running down our throats and he’s gonna pound it all day. Pair that with fewell found something dumb like he did last year with his gameplan vs the colts when he expected PM to throw it all over the field and that spells bad news for us

Especially if...
…the Giants try to do what the Steelers/Jets did with success, bringing in as many as 6 or 7 upfield to defend the pass. The Pats got some young legs that are eager to get some more snaps.
It is what it is
If Ralph is right with his statement about JPP being the best pass rusher...
Osi can start packing his bags, cause Tuck is a better all-around player and JPP, if he’s being considered a better pass-rusher, would be a better all-around player as well. That would make Osi too expensive to be here next year assuming both Tuck and JPP are healthy. I didn’t like the JPP draft choice, but I’ve got to admit, it is a conversation at this point as to whether he should be starting on a three stars for two positions DE rotation. It’s been long enough iin the regular season to admit I was wrong on the draft pick, and look for a last seat on the JPP train. Anybody got any ketchup??? This crow is dry.
pass the crow
I screamed at the tv “anybody but Jpp!!!” I wanted the kid from GT but I guess that’s why they don’t let me make those decisions

I suspect.....
…the Pats will run the ball at Osi.
It is what it is
Not a secret
Everyone runs the ball successfully on Osi. Sigh!
New York Football Giants Zindabad!
Let's Go Giants!
I don't think there's a single Giants fan
who isn’t eating crow over the JPP pick.

I was indifferent tbh.
I wasn’t in love with McClain. Some ppl seemed to want his babies.
Come on now ppl, chill.

Derrick Morgan. Most of us wanted him.
Though to be fair, can’t say whether or not he wouldn’t have been successful in our scheme.

I wanted Morgan myself...
and thought he was a safe, quality pick. Guess I don’t need to send my resume’ off to the Giants just yet.
To blitz or not to blitz
The last few weeks, I’ve been seeing tons of people complain about Fewell not sending enough blitzes. This idea really confuses me: isn’t the advantage of having a dominant front 4 lay in the fact that you can consistently get pressure WITHOUT blitzing, allowing you to drop more men in coverage? Big-blitzing is probably the most overrated play-call in the NFL, it seems like a swell idea but great QBs like Brady will consistently kill you. He (and Eli, for that matter) are just too good at reading the defense pre-snap, adjusting the coverage, and finding the quick completion to exploit the area of the field left undefended by the extra guys coming into the backfield. The great victory the Jets had over the Pats in last year’s playoffs was due to the fact that Rex Ryan kept everybody back in coverage, and the Jets ended up with 5 sacks because Brady often had nowhere to go. On the last plays of the Dolphins and Bills games, everybody killed Fewell for only sending 3 guys after the QB, but you could tell if you actually watched the film that the C-Web pick was a product of Moore having no good options because everybody was covered. Likewise, the JPP knocked pass at the end of the Bills game was a product of great coverage – Fitzpatrick held onto the ball forever, had to make a tippable-throw, and even if it had gotten near his reciever, Rolle was coming in to break up the pass or intercept the ball.
Go Giants!
Steelers and Jets used a lot of
2-man fronts against the Pats with success.
But do they have the talent to pull that off effectively? Might the Pats be a lil more prepared for it?
It is what it is
It's the judicious use of pressure
There are times when you want to rattle a QB, and see what he’s made of. Im not aching or a ton of blitz vs Brady, but Charlie Whitehurst? Tarv Jackson, yeah.
It’s already a wrap… might as well not show up tomorrow.

Without JPP, who's the Kraken?
Osi/Tuck are both dinged up.
My five things to watch:
1) Who’s playing for both teams and how much? Does Albert get more than 20-25% of snaps? How do the Pats respond to Ellis being likely-out? Is there shakeup amongst the LBs and safety after last week? More Price and Ocho this week? Ridley, Vereen? All this, plus all that you mentioned about the New York Giants.
2) The Giants OLine. Can it deal with the shakeup at center or is there breakdown? Can they run the ball with such centerpieces of the run game out and give Eli time to throw?
3) Does Eli try to emulate Big Ben’s Brady-like approach against New England’s secondary?
4) How do the Giants defend Welker and Gronkowski? Gronk’s got the surest hands of the receiving corp and the big tight end can get his hands out of reach of defenders.
5) Does the Giant front-4 still have the talent to bring sufficient pressure without a blitz? Osi/Tuck are both dinged up, so can they carry the load so more personnel can spread out in the backfield to deny Brady a target?
It is what it is
Initially, the Kraken was Greg Jones...
With the dreads and the flashes he showed in pre-season, he became a cult hero and was given the Moniker “The Kraken”.
Now though, the Kraken is the general name of an all out pass rushing line up of Kiwi, Osi, Tuck and JPP. Or as Fewell refers to it as “Nascar”.
…I think The Kraken sounds better.
You mean to tell me there isn't ONE photoshopped image of Optimus Prime with a New York Giants logo?? RIDICULOUS!!
It's not really "who"...
It’s “what”.

On #5...
We have to remember that Fewell DOES know the Patriots and Bellichick quite well from his time in Buffalo.
I think this is the week we see a shift to a more classically “Giants” defense. They’ve gotten after the QB all year, but I think they’ll get more aggressive, and do something different from what they’ve shown on tape all year long.
Wouldn’t be the first time TC’s done that against a Patriots team riding an unbeaten streak.
Well Ed..It's about time you got up off the couch and turned the old cartoons off..
Geez
"When I was a boy and I had no sense..I got my pecker caught in an electric fence..Well it curled my hair, tickled my balls and made me shit in my overalls..."
I guarantee Bradshaw will play..
Our injury report is special effects..With the exception of Nicks..Rest him we do not need the long ball here..We need to knock off the clock..Their defense can’t stop us..Our weapon in the red zone will be Cruz..with Barden decoying..
"When I was a boy and I had no sense..I got my pecker caught in an electric fence..Well it curled my hair, tickled my balls and made me shit in my overalls..."
Cruz and Ham still provide long ball options
which we will need if the Bradys get ahead early.

Yes this ..Our defense needs to be at its best..
Our offense needs to gnaw at the clock..If our guys can do that we’ll win..Getting into a long ball war with these guys..We’re in danger..I have no problem matching Eli with wonder boy, but I’d like to see us avoid that..We have better recievers than they do..but wars are won on the ground..Ultimately

with JPP listed as “concussion” does that mean he will have to pass an outside, NFL-criteria evaluation to play? Or is it the Giants’ call

Strangely enough
I think this is a winning game for the Gmen. I was watching Pitt/NE …the NE defense is what makes this game able to be had. Mistake free football and some big plays on defense should give the giants good as shot as any IMO

Giant LB'zz SUCK!! Mark Herzlich, Greg Jones,Jacquian Williams,Paysinger...Maybe not..
Osi is not the only one who needs...
to improve his game against the run. I don’t understand he catches all the blame when it has been proven the the entire defense is not so great against the run.
This team will not win if it fails to put points on the board. Slow starts with random bursts of compentence is not the formula of success in this league but the elimination of mindless penalties by both our offense and defense along with sound tackling; good pass protection, etc. are.
Osi is king. All other DEs must bow down.

I think so....
and I think we’ll see him at LB too….
the way Fewell is using him IMO is spot on. it’s really not any different than how he used him last year either….but of course Kiwi got hurt but it was the same role….they just called him a “DE”….this year he’s a “LB” but i’d say he’s taken on even more LB responsibilities.
but still…same Joker style player pretty much
TeamJPP
Yes spot on
Kiwi is easiest to deal with when a bigger guy can get up close and maul him. The joker role lets him play in space. If he’s coming on, it helps the D a ton
It’s already a wrap… might as well not show up tomorrow.

What I'd love to see on Sunday ...
besides a W of course.
A couple of gadget plays, just to keep teams honest and throw off some of this predictability.
A flea flicker would be nice … doesn’t even have to hit. Just let them think twice about selling out on the run on 1st down.
The D. Scott direct snap fake punt (patent pending). O.K., this one I do care about hitting.
I've been watching
opposing teams line up against the G-Men in punt formation and I don’t think it will be as easy as what happened in preseason. And the reason that I watch that right edge is because I keep dreaming that we repeat that play in real life and bingo, dial up a quick six if needed. Maybe a wildcat play in run formation with Scott out there now that Bradshaw’s officially down for the count tomorrow. But—-If Scott never makes it on the field tomorrow, a win would be far more satisfying.

Answer to BJs anxiety
When the Giants come out onto the field at the beginning of the game make him come out last and run a gauntlet of foam baseball bats (manned by the rest of the team) while Manning throws one football after another at him. He has to catch 50% of the throws or else he has to do it over again.
An alternative is to give him a couple of Klonapin. Smooth him right out. Works for me as a fan. Nothing bothers me when I’m on drugs.

they do need to get him something that helps his confidence
he doesn’t like the screen passes where he has to turn and then go upfield. I’d love to see a wheel route or two just to get the juggernaut going.

Back as a rook 2nd year guy he did great with the screens
Something weird happened
Sometimes he looks upfield instead of looking the ball into his hands, sometimes he just muffs it

Haven't seen much of Boothe at C.

and his pass protection ain’t awful, but it’s different when you’re playing C.
he’s much better playing G.
Adam Koets is out back up Center but he’s still on the PUP list.

Got to feel bad for Boothe.
The Pats are deep at DT.
It is what it is
Pure skill it's pretty even between him and Koets
Boothe gets a better push than Koets
Koets has the experience
This isn’t a huge deal, it hurts the continuity and consistency growth more than a talent killer

the thing is that Boothe struggles with speed not power
that’s why the Seahawks ate him alive. The Pats I don’t see have that, they just have 560lbs of Vince Wilfork. Boothe has the ass to engulf him tho.
Last night, a comedian died in New York. Somebody knows why. Somebody knows
I think Boothe will be fine
Was his first time at C, Koets first game at C was no picnic, then he got a bunch better in game 2
He’s a good but not great blocker. I’m more concerned about the constant change, has there been 3 games in a row with the same GCG combo?

he's a guard
and one that probably could start in the NFL. But his child bearing hips and ass are just too much for a center.

Well he did a good job last year at center..
But he’s had practice at it againso I’m not worried about him..The biggest impact is on Eli..having to make all the blocking calls..that really sucks..

After the Dielman incident,
they should really take it easy with JPP’s head if he did infact get a concussion just a couple days ago. From what I understand he had headaches just yesterday. I hope that’s not the case because as a Boston sports fan I’ve seen enough great players have their careers and lives ruined by concussions.
It is what it is
It's unclear exactly what happened
It was a closed practice, and I suspect it won’t come out any time soon
As a rule Giants are extremely over protective, see the Steve Smith signing in Philly, Giants wanted to PUP him.

Well if JPP is truly showing symptoms of a concussion..He won't play..
The rules are very clear now..which is a good thing..So I hate not having him on the field but I would rather him not play if that is the situation..I’ve had two concussions in my life..One football and on ski racing..that is the most painful thing you can suffer..It’s awlful..

You can see a lot just by observing-Yogi Berra
Pats defense
Opponents are averaging 424.1 yards per game against the Patriots (fourth-highest average allowed by a team through seven games since the AFL-NFL merger, according to ESPN Stats & Information), including 323.1 yards per game through the air. That’s not just worst in the league; it’s on pace to be the worst in league history. No team has allowed more than 284 yards per game through the air over the course of a full season.
Team Ghost: Manningham, Sintim, Beckum, Barden, JPP, Anvil, Ross

Let's hope our brain trust noticed
It kills me when they run right at a D poised to stuff the run. It hurts the confidence and I suspect it takes t a physical toll as well.
It’s already a wrap… might as well not show up tomorrow.

SEPT 25 - Giants 29 - Eagles 16
I reported that Monday..They are giving up 424..and getting 437..
That is why I’ve been clamouring for a ball control offense..We’ll beat them..They won’t be able to stop us..Their defense is worse than Miami

I think the thing I am frustrated most with is the O-line performance
I just don’t understand it from last year to this year..It doesn’t make any sense at all..I mean we had some turnover..but where did our line go?..We played with spare parts last year..These guys should be better..They are worse..What happened?
