Steve Smith Signs ... With Eagles

PrintTalk about a way to ruin a perfectly good day. I come back after a nice day out with the family to the news that Steve Smith is now a former New York Giant ... and that he has signed with the NFC East rival Philadelphia Eagles.
Say what? Where did that come from?
I am, to be honest, flabbergasted by this move. All signs, I thought, pointed toward Smith returning to the Giants -- especially after he had spent a couple of days this week at the Timex Performance Center.
Here is Andy Reid, the Philadelphia coach, on the signing.
"He’s a Pro Bowl quality receiver that we will work into our offense as soon as he is ready to go"
Per ESPN's Adam Schefter, Smith took a one-year deal from the Eagles.
Mike Garafolo of the Star-Ledger was apparently as stunned as I am, tweeting "My goodness, I'm speechless on this one." Per Garafolo, the one-year deal is worth $4.2 million, with $2 million guaranteed. MG also tweeted "How in the world could the Giants let that happen???????? This is incredible."
I have to believe the Giants could have -- and would have -- matched that contract. There had been some indication from the Smith camp that they were growing impatient with the Giants, but that seemed to dissipate when Smith spent a couple of days in New Jersey this week. Perhaps Smith did not like what he heard from the Giants when he met with them.
Smith, of course, set the Giants' franchise record with 107 catches in 2009 -- the only receiver in franchise history to crack the 100-reception barrier.
I can't wait to hear the official reaction to this one from GM Jerry Reese and the Giants. This is definitely not something the Giants could have anticipated.

They DID make an offer
We don’t know what it was. Smith made a choice here, so let’s wait and see. My guess is we will find out soon enough what the offer was.
by Ed Valentine on Aug 10, 2011 7:32 PM EDT up reply actions
I know
I just can’t imagine the offer they made being less than 2 / 4. That’s not even a serious offer (Plax commanded 3 guaranteed for crying out loud).
The only thing that really makes any sense here is that they don’t think he’ll be the same, probably ever. Sad all around really.

he said the Eagles wanted him more then the Giants
obviously the Giants didn’t match. He also said they could’ve matched the $4mill.
Last night, a comedian died in New York. Somebody knows why. Somebody knows
I just don't understand
how the eagles, who have beaten us the last 6 times we’ve played them, have been in such a good cap position that they can sign a player they don’t really need just to stick it to a division rival after paying for some of the best free agents in this class, while the Giants are struggling to get under the cap? Does this mean the eagles beat us before they were even at maximum capacity?

Manningham is good too
he’d start on a lot of teams (tho I guess he starts on the Giants now…)
Last night, a comedian died in New York. Somebody knows why. Somebody knows
Yes Manningham is good but both Jackson or Maclin could be number one receivers. Manningham has had Nicks and Smith to take focus off him so his numbers are inflated.
by ryanitus on Aug 10, 2011 8:29 PM EDT via mobile up reply actions
Maclin had 20 more receiving yards than Manningham
and he was the starter all year long
While Manningham was the 3rd WR for half the season.
by mclaren_is_the_best on Aug 10, 2011 8:32 PM EDT up reply actions
Manningham faces weaker coverage as the 2nd and 3rd guy so that doesn’t strengthen you saying he’s as good as Maclin or Jackson. I wouldn’t say Jackson is the best wideout in the NFC east but he is the most dangerous.
by ryanitus on Aug 10, 2011 8:39 PM EDT via mobile up reply actions
Maclin or Jackson faces the 2nd or 3rd guy too
don’t act like everyone clones their #1 CB and puts them on those guys
Last night, a comedian died in New York. Somebody knows why. Somebody knows
UHH
was he facing the 2nd and 3rd guy when both Smith and NIcks were hurt and he was our #1 WR? Idiot.

He simply isn’t the game changing receiver that Nicks, Jackson or Maclin is idiot, he’s good but he’s nothing more than a solid #2 receiver.
by ryanitus on Aug 11, 2011 12:58 AM EDT via mobile up reply actions
In the 3 games Nicks and Smith were both out he had only 9 catches for 2 td’s and the bulk of his yds were on one play against the redskins. Impressive, not really since 2 of those games were against the Deadskins and the other against Jacksonville. He’s good but he’s a career number 2 receiver. So take your midol and calm down.
by ryanitus on Aug 11, 2011 1:10 AM EDT via mobile up reply actions
You really are retarded.
All I was doing was disproving your notion that Manningham only faced 3rd corners. You were clearly wrong, but you had to go into some tirade about how he didn’t produce as much when he was #1. You said, and I quote, “Manningham faces weaker coverage as the 2nd and 3rd guy so that doesn’t strengthen you saying he’s as good as Maclin or Jackson.” So again, you’re wrong, he didn’t face only 2nd and 3rd corners. Anything else genius?

I'm not sure those two are any better then Manningham.
Last night, a comedian died in New York. Somebody knows why. Somebody knows
Thats just a stupid overstatement
Hakeem Nicks is a top 5 receiver in the NFL right now. He is better than anyone in the NFC East. Steve was going to be our #3 this year so don’t get to excited
No he is not.
Top 12 definitely but not top 5.
Flaming yawn
No way man
not top 5 yet… if he ever does end up there, who can say. He has the potential to.
Wow really, . He also lead the league in YPC with over 20+.lead the league with most 40+ yards plays.
Baby Jesus
Oh I was just confused because when you said total yards I thought you meant total yards.
The Jruth shall be told.
When we compare those stats, yes Nicks is better. Overall Nicks is a better receiver, good hands route running A better comparsion would be NIcks vs Maclin for the #2 spot after Jackson. Since Desean changes the game is so many different ways. running the ball, punting, receving. Hes the best playmaker in the NFC East, and I would take him over any other reciver any day
Baby Jesus
He really isn’t. He’s disappeared in the last two playoff games as a WR. I’d like him to be a bit more consistent before I call him the best anything. Plus he’s so cocky I would hate his guts if he was on any other team.
The Jruth shall be told.
The Packers bascially shut down everybody that game, He injured his knee, and still almost scored the winning TD, before being tackled by. I would take desean as my #1 WR in the east over anybody. He opens up other things for people
Baby Jesus
Please compare
Manningham’s numbers
60 944 15.7 9TD
with
Jackson’s
47 1056 22.5 6TD
I think they make the better comparison. If you want we can compare Nicks, a No 1, with Jackson but it’s really no comparison, Nicks is better.
Jackson is useless in the redzone
he can’t run routes, only deep. That is a big reason why the Eagles struggle so much in the red zone.

You can’t just put up Jackson’s receiving #’s. You need to account for all the yards he gets, special teams, running. He is one of the best playmakers in the NFL. So when seleicting a fantasy team from NFC East players, I would take Jackson as my #1 WR over NIcks anyday, becasue Jackson does alot more than just receive.
Baby Jesus
A wide receiver's job is to
play wide receiver.
Special teams has nothing to do with being a wide receiver.
by BrooksBridges11 on Aug 10, 2011 8:45 PM EDT up reply actions
Guess what I just did
And I’m not selecting a fantasy team. Nicks is the better WR on all levels, hands down. Keep living the fantasy Baby Jesus
Ummm I not talking about fanatasy league. I m saying if both Nicks and Jackson hit the free agent market, Jackson would be the most valuable player at the WR postion, because he does more, than Nicks. He is the #1 WR in the NFC East. All im saying is Jackson is better than NIcks..Not to hard to grasp
Baby Jesus
Nicks is better than Jackson
Jackson needs 50+ to score using his speed. Nicks is effective everywhere
u should find something else to do! You like the GM,you have your head up your ass!!!!!!!!! we have not singed a linebacker in years think about it, he has on Herry Carson JERSEY, HE is not a pimple on his ass, like I said find something elese to do like go play in the road out side of the stadium, may be u could talk about that. your inputs suck!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! go back were was the last linebacker we had, get rid of the GM and find someone knows talent..

Dont waste your breath wins
It’s obviously very hard to grasp that D Jackson is not the number one receiver in the NFC East
Can’t compare Nicks to Jackson, two very different styles of play, Jackson is best game changing receiver, Nicks is the guy I want of I’m looking for a 10 catch 100 yd, 2 td performance. Jackson, Maclin, Nicks and Miles Austin are the best 3 wideouts in the NFC east and Santana Moss is next, Manningham, Avant, Gaffney, and Dez Bryant are next. I’m fact Bryant is almost in the argument with Maclin and Nicks as best all around receiver in the NFC East.

Santana Moss blows.

And all I'm saying is that you're wrong
When they hit the field, Nicks is far and away better than D Jackson. Get it ? Not that hard to grasp now is it ?
Jackson isn't even the #1 WR on the Eagles
Maclin is more valuable to them than DeSean is

Jackson also ran for one and returned one so only a td’s difference, and Jackson is also covered by other teams top corners Manningham is not. Big differences.
by ryanitus on Aug 10, 2011 8:32 PM EDT via mobile up reply actions
Jackson requires the attention of 2 defensive backs, Mannighman is ur slot covered by a nickelback. Jackson is a bigger threat in all phases of the game then Mannighamn.
Baby Jesus
Exactly but I thin Maclin is a better receiver and he’s neck in neck with Nicks in receiving skills

I’ll admit that Nicks is definitely a more consistent threat and that’s what the Giants need him to be, but DeSean does what the Eagles ask him to at an elite level just like Nicks does his just at an elite level.

We use Jacobs, you don’t use Harrison. Gotta count him if you use him. You’re talkign about the position as a whole, not just one guy. Eagles fans are like the younger retarded black sheep of the family. Be gone.

It's about damn time. Why weren't they given opportunities before? Huh?!?!
Brown
has had exactly one, count it, one 1,000 yard season. Jacobs has had two. That’s one more. Jacobs has also been a backup for his entire career, with the exception of 2007-2009. For his career, he has 49 rushing TDs, Brown has 36. Total rushing yards you ask? Jacobs 4,278, Brown 4,815. That’s only 5537 more for Brown, who’s been a starter for 6 years, compared to Jacobs who was a backup for 3 of his 6 years. Brown has also had more significant injuries than Jacobs, so is there anything else you’d like to try and throw out there convincing yourselves Brown is somehow a better player. Oh shit, I forgot, it’s cuz he’s thrown 2 career TD passes, my bad.

Jamaal Jackson hasn’t played football in 1.5 years. If he can’t play at his pre-injury level, then the Eagles have to start a rookie center.
That means a rookie center and a rookie RG. I’m sorry but that’s very risky.

I agree with the secondary part (tho not sure why you included Prince
the WR is not a fact.
The QB…lets see if Vick repeats this year. He played out of his ass last year and was never that good. Some awfully high expectations for him to repeat.
Last night, a comedian died in New York. Somebody knows why. Somebody knows
Firstly as an Eagles fan if I could take two giants players and put them in eagles jerseys it’d be Nicks and Bradshaw but honestly Eli is not that good of a qb he may have a ring but face it it is was your defense that won that title not emthe offense. And Nicks is not much better than Maclin, Maclin would of had better numbers but the eagles spread the ball all over. Vick is more dyanic and a better athlete.
And honestly you think the fumble twins on Bradshaw and Jacobs is better than McCoy?? Not a chance

I could not be more pissed
I hate the Eagles, and I hate the way this team treated Steve Smith.
I hate this offseason and I hate that I think this season will be horrible.
It’s not that big of a shock to me. It seems Smith’s knee really isn’t healed considering the team he went to was the Eagles. If it was just money that was the issue why wouldn’t the Rams or the Bears line up for this guy? Why only a one year deal with the team grabbing every possible player that might help them win a championship? This tells me the results were not good on Steve’s knee. I hate to say it, but Steve Smith might be done.
He should have had the chance to be done with us
Instead of having a chance to be great with a mortal enemy
I'd rather
that the team that drafted him and won a title with him give him a shot before just chalking him up as done

I'm just going to believe that the Giants know something about his knee that nobody else does...
because letting him go if he was really “healing so quickly” is moronic
u should find something else to do! You like the GM,you have your head up your ass!!!!!!!!! we have not singed a linebacker in years think about it, he has on Herry Carson JERSEY, HE is not a pimple on his ass, like I said find something elese to do like go play in the road out side of the stadium, may be u could talk about that. your inputs suck!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! go back were was the last linebacker we had, get rid of the GM and find someone knows talent.. DON`T KNOW ABOUT ANYONE ELSE IT IS GETTING SICKING..
Let's just wish him the best
We should really be pissed at the Giants. Anyone who thinks the Giants didn’t have a chance to match the offer would be kidding themselves. They failed.
Best of luck, Steve.

They Giants Couldn't Match $2Mil Guaranteed Money?
C’mnn Jerry!! You just shook down Rolle and Webster for $7 mil!!! Give a couple to SS 12 $5 to Osi and you good. We good.
This is absolutely not about the guaranteed $$ it’s about management at the giants.
This blows. SS is/was my absolute favorite player on the GMEN.
Don’t wish him ill but i don’t wish him well either. Why the EAGLES of all teams??!?!
The Inevitable Conclusion of this Theory
IS that GMen FO and Coaching is alienating the players. Players get fed up, they won’t perform and maybe even lay down this season.
Not saying that’s going to happen but if this theory is right then I am afraid that the players that are getting low-balled and salaries restructured will revolt.
huh?
I would have thought the conclusion would be… “i’m gettin paid!!!!”
Boss is getting a ton of money
Smith is getting a ton of money
Where this fan view of “i’m pissed at the Front Offices, so the players must be too” comes from is beyond me.
You down wit JPP?

t shirts that has the Giants logo and the smith with a number 10 across the back last year. It looks like Im gonna have to cut it up for my macho man randy savage costume this year. Its too bad because I thought it was pretty bad ass. frowny face

On the other hand if he proves to be healthy that’s not such a bad deal.

Bottom line
Steve Smith is not your best friend. All that Facebook “I love you guys” nonsense is just ass-kissing.
He’s a player who did what’s best for himself. I’m sure he could care less about what’s in the Eagles’ trophy case as much as he cares about what’s in their bank account.

Why has this been a horrible offseason?
I hope this isn’t based off of a knee jerk reaction to what the Eagles have done because they are not winning a Super Bowl. You don’t play the match game because another team is signing everybody, you do what you need to do to improve your team. If that means losing a player who was overly compensated (Kevin Boss) or an injured question mark like Steve Smith is then so be it. I’m not worried about this.

Losing Steve Smith hurts but how effective will he be? That is an unknown and I am on the side that says he isn’t going to be himself. Let us not think of the Pro Bowler Steve Smith because he won’t be that this season if ever again. As far as improvement goes I don’t see us as regressing.

They went 8-8 in a season that the D absolutely collapsed
And 10-6 is now shameful
I’m not happy with missing the playoffs but let’s not make these last two years into the 70s
How??
Let’s see…
They didn’t improve the LB core.
They lost their starting TE and terrific blocker.
They reshuffled the entire O-line, and are going with an unproven at LT.
They lost a great DT (they do have depth there though)
They lost their third WR, and Eli’s go to guy.
They still have Tom Quinn at special teams.

When the team drafted Smith and Moss was #3 no one knew he would become a good weapon by year end
Jernigan, Barden, Hixon, Thomas, who knows
Very wrong, on almost all counts.
They got better at LB, between Kiwi back playing there, the rookies they drafted, and the continued growth of Goff, they are actually vastly better at LB
Boss was not and never will be a terrific blocker. He couldn’t block when he first came into the league, and he’s a decent blocker at best now.
They did not reshuffle the entire o-line. They upgraded LT with Beatty over Diehl, and upgraded guard with Diehl over anybody. They also most likely upgraded center with a younger, more athletic, HEALTHIER guy than O’Hara.
Cofield was a good, not great, DT, and as you alluded to, they have 2 young potential studs waiting to replace him.
I’ll give you Smith, that is the one move this offseason I’m having trouble digesting.
Tom Quinn was not the problem. You can’t make a guy know how to tackle, or have the speed/athleticism to cover kicks. They also will have Weatherford at punter, which is an infinite improvement over Dodge. Remember, Dodge basically cost us two games last year. They fixed both those issues in the offseason, special teams should be a strength, not a weakness.
Anything else you’d like to dumb out irrationally so I can disprove it???

Mostly everyone disagrees with you about Boss's blocking
He was a terrific blocker.
Beatty has potential, but he’s been hurt, and he’s starting at one of the more vital positions on the O-line.
Also, if Tom Quinn isn’t a problem, why have Giants special teams ranked near the bottom every year since he’s been the special teams coach?
There is no hope.... there is no future....there is only GRISSIONZ
The 2011 Mets- Rock bottom: We haven't reached it yet
Stop lying to yourself to try and prove a point.
I loved Boss, but he was not a terrific blocker, he was average at best for a TE, he was not great, not even close. And the special teams have been bad because they didn’t have players that can cover the god damn field, I already said that. No speed, athleticism on special teams for years, you’re gonna have horrible special teams, regardless of who the coach is. Take a look at special teams plays for every team. The best athlete often makes the tackle, whether it’s your blazing fast gunner on the outside(which we never have) or your strong, fast, athletic LB(which we didn’t have until now, not counting Sintim, his heart was never in special teams)

LB position is deeper than in years.
Boss solid but replaceable(In Becks I trust)
Bass will be a beast now than he was in SF and Beatty will be a star in a couple of years.
I wouldn’t call Cofield a great DT,solid(like Boss)but replaceable.
Eli can make anybody playing the slot look like a star(as long as they catch the ball).
Tom Quinn doesn’t tackle,punt,kick or return kickoff or punts…….THAT,S THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE PLAYERS ON ST.
Whoa
Cofield was not great. That’s an exaggeration. He was solid. Fred Robbins got 6 sacks on the Rams last year. COfield got 4 sacks on the Giants line. That’s with Robbins being 34 and Cofield being 27.
The Giants are going with an experienced albeit LT. He’s not someone who hasn’t played the position before.
You know how I feel about Smith.
Even with Quinn as the special teams coordinator, Hixon was 2nd in the NFL in punt returns in 2009 behind DeSean Jackson. With Hixon, Jernigan, and Weatherford, the special teams will be fine.

It stings because it’s SS12 and it’s the Eagles. But we’ll be fine.

The 2011 Mets- Rock bottom: We haven't reached it yet
We will be fine
He was our #3 WR. There’s plenty of talent to replace him, maybe not quite as reliable, but there’s no reason to panic. I’m pissed too, but I’m confident it will work out.
Eagles have improve on paper, yes.
But that’s bc they have an urgency to win the SB during MV’s remaining effective years so they decided to binge on talent to make it happen. Also reid has been close a lot of times and they want to make it happen. The urgency for them is greater given Vick’s age and style of play. Strike now while their main weapon is HOT.
Not to say the Gmen don’t have urgency but we also have good talent AND DEPTH at every position. D is going to be nice if not outright BEASTLY and Eli going to manage them boys into a Pro Bowl season.
We have the pieces in place which is why we’re not binging on FAs
Inproved how?
They are signing players like this is baseball. These players won’t mess until its too late and then they will be back to the massive signings again next year. Let them be the Red Sox all they like, this is football where there has to be an acclimation period to the play book and to your teammates.

Phillips – he said it himself, he didn’t have the explosiveness in 2010 that he did in early 2008.

I don't think he will fit in with their team anyway
They rely on explosive plays, not slowly moving the ball down the field and having to convert 20 third downs per game.

You at least have to let them play some games
He won't offer much more to the Eagles this year
than the chumps on their roster.
I’m really devastated, but let’s be real- the guy is clearly injured pretty bad.
This seems more like a move by the Eagles to stick it to the Giants. I’m just going to crack a beer open and try to brush it off.

We will do our best to beat you twice
The thing that worries me most...
isn’t Smith’s ability, but the fact that he probably knows our offense better than anyone outside of Eli. I’m sure the Eagles had this in mind.
Holy crap

Eli was still putting up numbers without him, but when Nicks went down, Eli’s production took a much more noticeable dip. Just sayin.

This changes nothing for ME
At least for this year. In my mind Smith was not going to contribute this year. He’s going to start on the PUP, and when he comes of it he’s not going to be the same player. Though, how this effects next year is a different story.
Last year was exactly that, Last Year
What we fail to realize is that he hasn’t been here all year… and our wr core is deep. We will be just fine, we have the rest of the preseason to adjust which is something we didnt have last year. IN REESE WE TRUST

That Andy Reid is the first coach I would choose to have a “competitive” team, and the LAST coach I would choose to win a Superbowl. He does not understand the value of a running game and short yardage. He also has made the wrong decision keeping Vick and dumping Kolb, because although Vick is certainly exciting, he will absolutely NOT be healthy enough or last long enough to take this team thru a playoff run to a title. Positively. And you will be stuck with VY when it counts…..

I don't see why this is a surprise.....
Other than that the Eagles signed him.
Hey look, what Giant fan didn’t know how good and valuable Steve Smith was when he was healthy? Do you think the Giants somehow missed that fact?
As that important a piece, why did this drag out so long? Did you ever hear Smith say “my knee feels great and I am ready to get back to work”?
Why did he accept a one year deal from the Eagles? I mean, ok if he signs a 3year deal with them then he must be healthy and the Giants got hosed……
The answer is very simple. The Giants do not think his knee is sound. MicroFracture surgeries are often a very risky surgery many players don’t come back from. By all accounts, he had a severe knee injury. This was strictly a business decision.
I hate it that he is gone, but I don’t think this is surprising.

WOW!
To lose him is one thing but to Philly!!!
The homers on this site are insane.
Yesterday SS was a great receiver, and him coming back was going to make our team better, and that with SS back losing Boss wont hurt.
But today, now that he’s an Eagle, he is nothing more than a 3rd WR who wont be good till 2012. Syler made some great points above, and you guys shoot him down because he’s not 100% blindly optimistic.
There is no excuse for this at all. I understand the cap situation, but if you look objectively.. We lost:
Boss, Smith, Cofield, O’Hara, Snee, and potentially Osi.
What have we gained? Baas? Carr? The Punter?
Anyone who says we will be as good as last season is borderline insane.
Now were still a good team, but this f’ing sucks. Inexcusable by JR. We need to bring in another WR. Im sick of hearing things like Hixon, Barden, and Jernigan are “great players” and “braylon edwards sucks” etc.
Truth is, other teams have gotten better and we gave gotten worse.
Its blatantly obvious that a lot of guys don’t want to play here, whatever the reason may be.

HOWEVER
Hixon, Barden, Jernigan, Cruz and Thomas are probably all making less than Edwards combined, and without hesitation, I’d take two of those guys two easily out produce Edwards this season. Which means, that for what he’s getting paid, what he was getting paid, he’s not worth it. He’s not as good as people make him out to be. He robbed the Browns to the tune of 5 years/ 40 million. That is absolutely insane. He was never worth that money, the two good seasons he had were aberrations. So, yes, you did miss the point. He’s not as good a WR as the top flight money he’s been getting for 5 years. Again, would you rather have say Hixon/Barden get the 50 receptions 5 TDs Edwards will get this year, for a combined 1.08 million, or Edwards, who can’t stay out of trouble is a bad locker room presence, and drops the ball way too much, for 4 million? It’s pretty simple, so maybe you’re a little ignorant

I think the moves they made have made the team better overall. But this one hurts. If he’s healthy than we lost a complete reciever and a great weapon.
But If someone is gonna pony up that kind of cash to an “IF” then I can’t fault the Front office for letting him walk.

We’ll be better. I believe it. It’s not being a homer. You can disagree. We’ll see who is right. No reason to start calling people insane if they disagree with you though.

the biggest determing factor of wins & losses is the TO differential
I can easily point to 2 games that we lost last year as a direct result of turnovers. Tennesse was turnovers AND penalties. & Phi 1 where we gave them the ball 5 times. These were games that we lost directly due to the turnovers.
Nobody wins the SB in August
There was a reason that we turned the ball over so much.
Good players don’t do that, do they?

No, but its a team issue. Good wasn’t the right word. You’re cherry-picking stats.
We turned the ball over so much for a reason. It wasn’t just “luck” etc.
When Eli threw a pick it was either because the throw was bad or the WR didn’t do his job. Simple as that.
IF we were a better team, more of those would have been completed.

cherry picking?
u said good players dont turn the ball over. thats called using an example.
the fact is turnovers can be corrected. will they be completely eliminated? NO. every team turns the ball over. sometimes its bad play by our team. other times its great play by the opposing team. The fact the the team realizes it did a horrible job last year, will force them to concentrate on correcting that.
Let’s wait till the games start being played before we decide the season is over.
Nobody wins the SB in August
I’m not saying the season is over. I believe we’re a good football team.
Just because the team is trying to eliminate turnovers doesn’t mean they will. They happened for a reason. Whether that is players or coaches or whatever.
They happened more to our team than other teams, which is a weakness.

exactly
that happened to our team more than any other & we were still 10-6. so what’s that tell u? were are a much better team that needs to eliminate the mental mistakes. the fact that it was such an issue last year, makes me think we will do a great job of correcting them.
I think we will greatly reduce the # of turnovers. which incidently will increase our record.
Nobody wins the SB in August
But the mental mistakes are part of the team. We happen to be a very skilled and strong team that makes a lot of mental mistakes. Some teams don’t make those mental mistakes, but aren’t as skilled.
We had all those turnovers for a reason. Who’s to say they will go down, or up?
How can we say they will greatly reduce?

every year
we concentrate on something that was bad the previous year. and every year we do a better job in that area. this has been a consistent trend with both TC & Eli.
Nobody wins the SB in August
And every year something new pops up that we weren’t bad at the year before.
its a cycle.

i guess its a good thing
that the biggest determining factor of wins & losses is the turnover differential. the rest I can live with.

with younger, healthier and hungrier players.

And other teams added those young players without losing others.
SO therefore they got better, and we stayed the same, at best.
Is Jernigan better than Smith? NO.
Is Bear/Beckum better than Boss? NO.
Is the line without Osi better than the line with osi? NO.
Is Austin better than Cofield? NO.
IS Bass better than O’Hara and Seuburt? NO.
Maybe it wont hurt us as much, but were by no means better. i’m just being logical.
Younger? sure. Healthier? mostly. Hungrier? no proof of that. Experienced? not even close. Talent? not there yet.
We’re by no means better, however you want to paint the picture.

Baas
was the top rated FA center. He’s was a hell of a lot better than O’Hara last year. I’m not looking at O’Hara from 2007, we didn’t have that guy last year. I love that you have already decided on Jernigan and Austin before they take a single real snap. That is beyond depressing.

You are a hopeless individual Moshe.
You cannot look past your own stubbornness in believing you are right to look at things from another perspective. Would you have said Steve Smith in 2007 would ever put up a season better than Toomer or Plax ever did? At the time, no you wouldn’t have, but now you say he was one of our best players, which in 2009, he was. The point, however, is that who’s to say that Jernigan doesn’t ever put up a season better than the one Smith had on 09? You don’t know what you’ve got till you try it. Nothing is ever not done for a reason. There is a reason Smith wasn’t re-signed, either he’s injured worse than thought, and they believed he wouldn’t be much of a factor this season, or Reese and Coughlin believe that with all the young talent at WR, we can more than make up for his departure. Your “They’re unproven so they’re worse theory is faulty logic.” If one is unproven, it means there is still something left to be proven, either they are a good player, or they’re not. The jury is still out on them, and time will tell, but to automatically say they got worse is nonsense. One of these young WRs coukld go out and have a pro bowl type season, then I imagine you won’t be singing the same tune, will you?

Ah that would be nice...but let me just say...
Coughlin doesn’t seem like he is as willing to do that as other coaches. Barden comes to mind: we all thought that we would see him right away near the goal line – just throw it up and who is going to out jump him? Made all the sense in the world to everyone, but Coughlin wouldn’t let him see the field just to do one thing. He had him deactivated b/c he didn’t know enough of the offense. So I agree that it might be a could idea to get Jernigan on the field like that but Coughlin won’t do that.
by Manningologist on Aug 10, 2011 9:50 PM EDT up reply actions
Steve Smith got on the field as a rook, he just got hurt
Jernigan’s not nearly as raw as Barden, he’s much closer to Hakeem Nicks experience and battle tested wise.
Its obviously all on him. I don’t think Coughlin just doesn’t play rookies for no reason.
It might be a few weeks, but I doubt that Jernigan, if healthy of course, is just on the inactive list all year. He’s too much of a weapon.
Last night, a comedian died in New York. Somebody knows why. Somebody knows
Hey I hope you are right but...
it just seems Coughlin is not willing to trust rookies at the skill positions (I mean compared to most other coaches). The worst thing is that Jernigan (and all the rookies) didn’t get all the offseason OTAs, etc.
I think Coughlin is going to (at least the 1st half of the season) lean on Hixon as #3. He knows the offense better than any of the other options and he has a relationship with Eli. I think he’s going to be on the field before any of the other options.

same for Big Boy
he saw immediate action rookie season, and made an impact. sometimes its the things we don’t see(practice habits, etc.) that make that final decision in TC’s mind.

It is also
Not a roto league. Young players mature. Guys get better with another year in the same system. Philly has tons of turn over and a new defensive coach. There is a ton of variability there. I think we are better at O line. A lot of key guys like Bradshaw, Nicks, Manningham, KP, JPP, Kiwi, etc. are primed for big years. Joseph gets a chance to prove his worth. So do the draft picks. It’s 45 guys all trying to take the next step forward. I believe the talent is there to win in this league. Can we play a few games before we pronounce the season a disaster please?
Go Giants!
I love the view on it. And I hope so as well..
but even if those guys all have good years, they are just replacing other guys who had good years before them. It doesn’t make us better.

That's why they play the games
It’s not that simple, just evaluating players and positions.Just having Fewell back for his second year might make a huge difference. KP might finally play like KP before the injury. Ther are soo many variables. The special teams might not suck now that they injected some youth and speed onto the team. We’ll see. I know you’ll be screaming at your TV rooting for the Giants just like me this season. So let’s hope you’re wrong and I’m right. All I’m saying is give the team a chance to prove themselves before you say I told ya so about the job Reese did this off season.
Go Giants!
I’m hoping I’m wrong as well, bud.
I think Reese did as good of a job as he could’ve this summer with our cap scenario, I’m just worried about holes left in the roster.
That’s all.

We may be good, rookie surprises but you are right

Not trolling in the least
But what this is telling me is that the Giants management was trying to low ball Smith. This, and the Boss non-signing, shows very little loyalty towards the players that helped bring the Super Bowl to New York in 2008. Put that together with the Osi rumblings and you could get the recipe for disaster. Players on the team start looking for the opportunity to jump ship and players on other teams get the perception that management is cutthroat making it harder to sign free agents without overpaying.
I'm not drunk I'm just drinking.
Bradshaw resigned, so its not like the 'jump ship' thing has a ton of weight, if any at all
Smith was hurt. Would’ve loved him back, but they lowballed him for a reason. Boss is overpaid now, the fact about not wanting to overpay someone is they can end up elsewhere.
Osi, like Strahan, has been bitching since he signed the contract. Its nothing new and doesn’t change anything about anyone’s perception of the team.
Last night, a comedian died in New York. Somebody knows why. Somebody knows
Do you think...
Bradshaw was happy with his contract. I don’t know but i kinda doubt it. i just think he wasn’t getting many offers.

I’m not. I understand he signed with us, which was great. And the money was good for the Giants too.
But that doesn’t prove one thing or the other. If one player staying means something, than 5 players leaving means something too.
Neither of us know the inner workings of the locker room, and neither of us should pretend to.

there were obvious reasons why these players left
if you care to look around it and call Reese a failure, that’s on you. The point is there were reasons to resign them, there were also reasons to let them go.
I guess grow a pair of balls and realize that letting them go was an option, and not necessarily the wrong option. Grow the balls.
Last night, a comedian died in New York. Somebody knows why. Somebody knows
I’m not calling Reese a failure. I honestly think he’s a great GM and that he did the job he needed to this summer.

got a better LT
Phillips is a year further away from surgery, retained Jake and AB, Nicks is another year in the league reaching his potential, JPP ditto.
Sometimes when you draft players, they’re not stars as rookies. Sometimes (or maybe all the time) in their 2nd and 3rd years they’re the stars.
Last night, a comedian died in New York. Somebody knows why. Somebody knows
Retaining players doesn’t make us better.
Maybe in 2-3 years they’ll be great, and I certainly hope so.
But for now, we aren’t as good.
The more time JPP plays, the less of Osi. Osi is a great player, as much of a whiner he is.
Beatty might be better, or might not. We really don’t know.
I agree with you on Nicks however.

so if retaining players doesn't make us better
what is the point of retaining them?
the more JPP plays, the more we have a pass rusher and run stopper at DE. That’s what we had in 2008, when Osi wasn’t there, when the defense was better then it ever was.
Beatty couldn’t be worse then Diehl or Andrews, they were terrible (and he wasn’t when he played)
Last night, a comedian died in New York. Somebody knows why. Somebody knows
He absolutely could be worse, we honestly just don’t know. JPP might not improve, we honestly just dont know.

Since the Eagles have been annointed to be Tiger Woods circa 2003, someone take them and I’ll take the field. Any takers? This is a once in a lifetime opportunity because after all, these are the great Eagles. Someone take my money please!

Don't tempt me!
I’m almost confident that they will fall flat on their collective face. It has been proven that this tact doesn’t work that the Eagles are using. As we all know we put QB’s out of commission and I expect Vick to be a victim this season. Not saying this is what I want but I won’t shed one tear when we finish him.

again great screen name…..but yeah, as much as i want to hop on that eagles fall on face bandwagon, they are a well run organization, trophy case aside. and that damn walrus finds ways to win week in and out. they may stutter out of the gate(a la the Heatles) but they will be very good this year, injuries not withstanding.

Thanks Ed, I could have jumped and not had to hear this crap! Seriously though, I look forward to hearing what Reese has to say, but he has to know there is a crapstorm coming from us fans…you just don’t let a guy like that go to your biggest rival. Or maybe he really is hurt more than everyone is letting on. But if you guys want a good laugh, go to his Facebook page. Some of the comments from Giants fans are hilariously scathing. And for the love of God, can we please win just one game against those bastards this year?

The Giants just did not want to guarantee him much money up front, since his knee just had what is a very serious procedure on it last year? Didn’t KP21 have a fairly ineffective year after a same/similar procedure? Maybe Giants doctors took a wait and see approach. It sucks to lose SS12 for sure, the guy was great for us but come on, how effective will he be this season?
Goff uck yourself
that was like
when Boss left for 4/16. the guy has 3 terrible concussions. Reese did right, IMHO by not overpaying him. Maybe the staff saw SS’s leg and said, we are sitting this one out….

let me explain the truth to you guys
Smith was a loyal soldier who was the most underpaid player in the league getting a half million a year.it was time for him to help his family.He just signed his name and made at least 2 million dollars and may never play again.Reese knew he was hurt,and told him what they would pay,and he took the money.The Eagles just wanted to hurt the giants in case he is ok.And yea as a Giant fan I’m sick to my stomach now,but.you don’t win by buying a championship,look at Washington who was so excited to get Haynesworth.The Giants are doing everything right.,and will be fine ,make the playoffs and make a Superbowl run,.Cruz will stepp up and be better then Smith ever was,and i thought Smith was one of our best players.This aint fantasy football ,games are won on the field,and if we win week 3 in Philly all this offseason crap will be forgotten.
Cruz will stepp up and be better then Smith ever was
Until Cruz actually does something against 1st teamers, and contributes to a championship run, I think you might wanna fall back off of that one bro

one preseason explosion is more than any of our WRs has contributed (sans Nicks & Ham). I’m not saying he’s the next coming of Rice but he should be a good player & valuable weapon.
Nobody wins the SB in August
Makes you wonder...
if TC’s “long road back” comment was just put out there to temper the fans reactions to this after Smith spat on the contract they were offering. If he plays early in the season I hope you guys revolt against Reese.
I'm not drunk I'm just drinking.
I'd be surprised
There was no revolt in the lost years, it’ll take 4-12 back to back for Giants fans to go bonkers, and maybe not then
We are a believing, patient group, not universally but in a big majority
At least then...
You could blame it on the coaches or players. Now it seems like you being handed a plate of crap and told bon appetit.

Eh, they said that in 07, 09 and now in 11
JR is wily like a fox
In 07 they said he wouldn’t last long, after he didn’t replace Petitgout and Arrington with a star, he said he had faith in Diehl and he thought our LBs would be fine (he was right they were wrong)
In 09 we didnt trade for Braylon Edwards or Anquan Boldin and because of that JR was an idiot, at the time there were Giants fans and experts that advocated a 1 and a 3 for Boldin. Where would the team be if he followed popular wisdom then.
This year its losing Boss and Smith, and not signing FAs cause you guys are. To me that would be counter productive. I liked both of them, but Smith had few dominant games and Boss in my opinion never get good enough in the short TE game. So I’m sad to see them go, but I’m willing to see what happens.
From my perspective, not based on the last 10 days but 5 years, JR has a plan, and these things were considered. We will see if his judgements were sound or not

Cruz
Or Barden, or Jernigan, or Thomas. I’m fairly sure one of these guys will end up having a better career from this point forward than S Smith. Smith was a classy due. Clutch player. Great locker room guy. But now he’s a guy with an injured leg that is looking for the most guaranteed money, just like Boss. I don’t wish him well. Any other uniform i might. But not the Eagles man. Watch yourself coming over the middle Steve.
Go Giants!
Those 4 combined have done nothing yet. Maybe they’ll be good, maybe not.

LET'S GO RANGERS!!!
That is the point
They decided he is a risk for 4.2 million and they didn’t match. It actually shows that JR is willing to make decisions and stick with them. Signing Smith as a PR move because he’s popular and it might make him look bad not to would be the easy thing to do.
He likes those guys better. At least on a value basis. Let’s see how it turns out. Maybe he is a great Eagle and we want to kill JR. But let it play out first.
Go Giants!
so Smith
was supposed to sit and take whatever horseshit offer that Reese just tossed on the table? Maybe Osi is the tip of the iceberg with this guy because he was ready to let Bradshaw walk out of here too
I have no ill will towards Steve Smith. None. He is a class act and played hard for us.

Bradshaw will be taught not to fumble
JPP year older
Kiwi at linebacker
healthy receivers
healthy Oline

This isnt basketball
You cant just sign a bunch of superstars and expect to win easily. Football is more about chemistry and teamwork the giants will make the playoffs if they limit turnovers think about it without smith most of the year they were top 10 in passing and we will have cruz and hixon back and now we have a healthy offensive line and hynoceros is a beast which helps bradshaw and jacobs and KPs healthy which helps our secondary alot and JPP has a year under his belt. With or without osi we still have one of the best d lines we have some young talent at lb and our secondary is still good without prince for a while and our early schedule is ppretty easy so well be fine without him, our o line became younger and we have two outstanding rbs and a very good recieving core. Did i forgetto mention we also have an elite qb. People are forgetting how the giants should have swept the eagles and made the playoffs and that the giants were top ten in passing yards rushing yards pass total yards pass defense run defense total defense sacks and turnovers forced.

Giants Management
I Think the Giants total lack of ability to manage the teams payroll and their hard-line stance is coming back to bite them in the ass I heard Smith was going to be out most of the season so for this year I see no big deal they can get him back next season if he is his old self again. The Eagles like most teams have to get to 90% of the cap so they might have done this for that reason and to learn about the Giants offense & defense to help pave the way to a super bowl.
we haven't beaten them in six games

The Giants made mistakes yes
but the Eagles made the plays to make them pay. No team fully blows a game, nor does a team fully win it. It takes both sides to decide a game, plain and simple.
they're always looking at the Giants
they needed a miracle to beat us one game, and 4inches more of Osi Umenyiora beats them in the first game.
The Eagles aren’t dumb enough to think that 6 in a row gives them more points in the next game. If anything, they’re worried about that streak having to come to an end.

2. The Giants are probably the only team in the East that the Eagles respect . The Cowboys have been choke artists for the past ten years. The Redskins are a joke. The Giants are the only other team that is constantly in the running for the division title.

if I was posting on the blog of a team that we’ve beaten 6 times, I would have trolled hard.

to say that a team didn't give away a 28 point lead..
not to say the Eagles didn’t win it fair and square, but the Giants definitely should’ve won that game.
And yes, I agree the Eagles respect the Giants. I dont; know how anyone can suggest otherwise.
Last night, a comedian died in New York. Somebody knows why. Somebody knows
Like I said you were Jordaned.
Remember when the Bulls would be down by x number of points and suddenly MJ would go off and dominate the other team by himself I’m saying that happened. I’m not saying Vick is football’s Jordan, he just had a Jordan moment.

As yes, but in order to prove a factual statement, one muyst solve the variable. So solve the variable. Otherwise, it's still just an unsolved equation.

Too specific
X in this case is defined as the points Jordan scores in a 4th quarter comeback, which varies depending on the game I just used x (loosely defined) rather than multiple variables…. wait enough math on a football blog. C’mon I was giving the Giants a compliment just leave it at that.

LET'S GO RANGERS!!!
We got better at some positions, and worse at others.
I don’t think we will be as good as last year, but I hope I’m wrong.
Every week I’ll be rooting for the Giants to kick some ass, as I know all of you will be.
Lets just f’ing hope these kids can play… cause if not…

I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul."
LET'S GO RANGERS!!!
I'm sorry to see Smith go, BUT....
$2 million is a lot to pay for a one-year deal on a guy who hasn’t hit the practice field, and isn’t ready to. Smith when healthy was an All—Pro. He may or may not be again in the future, but for the next year, I don’t think he will be, and if returns to form, it’ll be after his deal with the Eagles is over.
Yeah, we lost Boss, who was a so-so TE, he certainly improved on his blocking but his pass catching wasn’t good last year. And he signed for an amount that I think most objective observers would say was somewhere between generous and insane. In addition, the Giants haven’t been featuring the TE in their offense and I don’t think there will be any great drop in production from the replacement committee than there was from Boss, who last year just wasn’t very good.
I really like Cofield as a player, and wish we’d have resigned him. That said, when looking at what he signed for with Washington and what we have in the way of young talent,
I can understand why we didn’t.
Put together these three amount to a huge amount of money that was spent by other teams, and for this year, I don’t think the production we get in any of the three spots is likely to be majorly different than we’d have gotten with a sub-par Smith, Cofield and Butterfingers Boss.
And who knows, we may yet have some additions to make of our own.
yeah
I’m sure calling up some practice squad fodder will even things out
by MrDollarBills on Aug 10, 2011 9:03 PM EDT up reply actions
Pascoe/Beckum should be competetive with what Boss did last year....
Practice squad fodder can sit in the stands as well as Smith, and may actually do something when the season starts, and the replacements for Smith and Cofield are a third high round draft picks who were selected for their talents, not to stuff rosters.
Thank god I didn't get a jersey for him to sign
I woulda been pissed off.
this season
overall I think we are a better team this year if and only if the OL can get the job done and Eli throws 15 less INT
good luck with that one
meaning Eli.
He should have restructured his deal.

Its the nature of the fan.
When your team looks good on paper, you bring that up and say we’re going to win.
When your team doesn’t look as good on paper, you turn to positives such as unproven players with potential and guys coming back from injury, and say names and paper teams don’t win championships.
People say what other teams do isn’t important, but its all relative. When we play, we play another team, and we win or lose depending on if we are RELATIVELY better than they are.
When other teams get better more so than we did, we are relatively worse in the league, even if our team improved.

The eagles have lost players as well

about what, we still have great WR, great Dline, a very good secondary, I am excited about the young LB a lot more speed and special teams will be 10 times better.
We have two solid WRs
and the LB unit is nothing to be excited about
I just hope that Nicks can stay healthy. If he goes down, god help us
by MrDollarBills on Aug 10, 2011 9:09 PM EDT up reply actions
Our WR unit as a hole is not great.
Nicks is great. Manningham can be great if he could realize where the 1st down marker is. The rest are unproven and have just a good of chance of busting as being good players.
The LB core is average. They won’t lose games, but won’t win them either.
Here’s to hoping out superior secondary and dline win some games for us.

I thought he would resign but like everyone extremely SHOCKED
he went to the iggles
I was 50/50 if he would’ve stayed or went to another team…
but Philly?
and for a 1 year deal?
both ???
I agree with those that think there must be something up with his knee
plus he comes in at mid-season and he won’t be able to pick up their offensive lingo that quick to even be a factor if he comes back fully healthy at all this season.
Just Philly getting him away from us, even though it would only be taking him away for half a season this year if anything.
That's just Ridiculous!
Stuff like this is why I made the switch. Giants just don’t deserve the old BBI.
Go Green!

Congratulations Filthadelphia
You just signed a player for 4 MIlion dollars for a half a season. That’s only 250,000 a game, oh but wait minus the 8 he’ll miss, so essentially your paying the other 2 million for not playing. But great deal guys, way to go!

He will miss six games at the most and there is something called the playoffs which the Eagles will be in. Keep on hating.
yeah but for the remaining 10 games how healthy will he be?
microfracture ain’t no sprained ankle.
Yes, I am a Giants fan. Now that we got that out of the way....
IMPEACH DOLAN!!!!

the Eagles will be in the playoffs?
Last night, a comedian died in New York. Somebody knows why. Somebody knows
How am I hating,
It’s a known fact. And assuming they will make the playoffs is pointless. One must never assume anything, lest they be deeply saddened when they don’t get what they thought they were getting.

You do contradict yourself when you say its
a known fact that SS is only going to be in for a half a season and they say one must never assume right?

your retarded to?
He’s going on PUP, he can’t come off till week after week 6. He’ll at that point and time, still never have even practiced as an eagle, they are going to have to have him practice for at least two weeks, just to get a little familiarity with the plays. That’s week 9 the earliest he’d play, simple mathamatics. Jesus.

And yea, it will be 8 weeks
thats 6 weeks he can’t practice AT ALL.
You gotta get the guy worked intot eh offense, that will take another 2-3 weeks of practice, considering that week 7 will be the first time he ever practices as an Eagle. Oh what’s that, forgot about that did we? He’s gonna miss 8 weeks, minimum

Becks is the starting TE
doesn’t mean they won’t go two TEs a lot to bring in Bear as another blocker, but Beckum is catching the passes at Te, you have him on the field, get another WR in there in the slot, just another receiving weapon on the field. They might put him in the slot once or twice a game, I’d be surprised if even that much.

Business Decission
An unfortunate but necessary move by the G Men. I wish SS the best, but he would likely have played only the second half of the season, and at a reduced performance. Just not a $4.2 Million priority, when we have a bunch of young receivers who need playing time and a tight salary cap. If he gets healthy and our young guys flop, we could bring him back next year.
wow, i thought cursing and the like wasn’t allowed on this site…“classy” I believe it was called at one point…it’s really, really funny to watch your reactions…this guy goes from your QB’s saving grace to the most hated guy in NY…hahaha hilarious

and he goes from a hated go in Philly
to their new go to guy??? Works both ways.

reply fail…
and I don’t think we ever hated Steve Smith…I don’t currently hate Manningham or Nicks…I’m just not fans of theirs…furthermore, i wouldn’t call him our go to guy…

OK, I don't hate Steve Smith either. He made a decision. Move on.
It works both ways is all I’m saying. Eagles fans presumably didn’t like the guy because he was a Giant, now he’s one of the good guys cuz he’s an Eagle. See what I mean? It goes the other way too. Guess that’s too complicated for a bottom feeding Eagles fan to understand.

Me move on? You’re kidding…there are numerous posts about Steve Smith signing with us…you all are the ones that need to move on. I’m sorry your off season was nothing less than an atrocity, I really am, but don’t come at us b/c of your jealousy issues. You make too many assumptions as well in thinking that every Eagle fan hates every Giant player.
Furthermore, if you want to sling insults around, be my guest shithead. I have a fuck-ton of better things to do than sit here and listen to some complete idiot sit and try to justify who I tried to have somewhat of a civil debate with. Stop wondering why half of BBVs members come to talk at BGN and good luck trying to maintain a .500 record this year.
