Giants GM Jerry Reese: 'We'll Get Into The Playoffs'

PrintIt is impossible for me to assess the demeanor of New York Giants general manager Jerry Reese when he met with reporters Thursday. Reese was standing outside the lunchroom at the Timex Performance Center. I am writing from our summer place in the Adirondack Mountains.
What I can tell you is that the words from Reese that came across in the transcript of his press conference certainly seem defiant. Reese confidently predicted that "We'll make the plays this time and we'll get into the playoffs and we'll make a run."
Reese acknowledged the unrest of the team's fan base, saying "it seems like people are in a little bit of a panic."
"The perception is that we are not doing a lot. We had a game plan and we are sticking to our game plan," Reese said."We feel good about our roster and we have a strong roster. We will continue to try to make it stronger."
Reese said he was not bothered by the perception that his team had taken a step backward with the losses of Steve Smith, Kevin Boss, Barry Cofield, Shaun O'Hara and Rich Seubert.
"That's mostly fans who say that kind of stuff and they really don't understand the process. We have good players on the team. We're not looking to go out and make every sexy splash that can be made. We make solid football decisions. That's been happening for a long time," Reese said. "Everywhere, you probably go to any camp, and the fans are saying that about their football team. That's what fans do and that's what makes fans great."
Reese said the Giants made "responsible offers" to Smith, Boss and Plaxico Burress.
"It's called free agency for a reason. Those guys are free to go somewhere else," Reese said. "We made responsible offers to everybody. Sometimes it doesn't work out the way you want it to work out, but we play the hand we're dealt and we'll win with it.
Earlier Thursday coach Tom Coughlin expressed some anger about the way Smith's departure to Philadelphia unfolded. Reese, however, did not criticize Smith or his agent, Ben Dogra.
"Nobody owes you anything in free agency. It is almost a dog eat dog situation in free agency but it happens that way sometimes. Free agency is free agency and guys go to different teams," Reese said. "I'm not blindsided or surprised by anything in free agency."
Reese pointed to the free-agent signings of center David Baas and punter Steve Weatherford as key moves, as well as bringing back running back Ahmad Bradshaw. He seemed particularly happy with the acquisition of Baas, a six-year veteran from San Francisco.
"We went out and secured the center that we wanted. We felt like he was the best center in the market and we feel like he is a Pro Bowl center for us. He is our kind of guy, he is flexible and can play guard and center. He makes us strong up the middle so we got out there and did that right away," Reese said. "It is not as sexy as a receiver or cornerback but the guy touches the ball every single play and that was important to us to have a guy secured like him."
Reese also pointed out that while the Eagles have made the most noise with their bevy of signings, that making a splash does not always translate to winning.
"How many big, sexy moves did the Green Bay Packers make last year? I don't remember a lot. Who won before? Pittsburgh. How many big sexy moves did they have? You develop players. The making the splash, the big sexy moves, I don't know if that always works. Who won the Super Bowl before Pittsburgh? The Saints, did they have any big sexy moves? I don't remember any. I don't remember a lot if they did. You make solid football decisions. ... I don't know if all the big, sexy moves are the right way to go," Reese said.
"We feel good about where we are. We'll continue to look for players to make our roster stronger, but we're not going to throw in the towel right now. We think we have a strong team."

Perhaps
The fans are restless because a team that has taken us apart for three years just got, on paper, a lot stronger, while the team that got taken apart doesn’t look much better. Just saying.
Teams built like that don't win championships.
Especially not right away, if EVER
I will be at the season opener NYG @ WAS with a few friends. If you are going and feel like looking up a fellow BBVer and having some fun, let me know.
Built like what?
They drafted brilliantly, cut dead weight, and added pieces that were clear deficiencies last year. Watching the Baltimore game? I am. They are dominating, without Nnamdi, Maclin, Jackson, or Samuel. Their D is beating the crap out of Baltimore’s first teamers. Please, I’m not on the “They’re going to win it all bandwagon”, but they’ve done a great job building that team, one which has pounded us or humiliated us for three straight years.
its preseason game 1
most starters play one or two drives, not a huge deal

Yep.
It shows. Nor were you there in 09 in December. When you’re there, it’s real easy to see the holes, and which is the superior team. To comment, pull head out of sand, and actually look at the team.
I see
I’m less of a fan cause I was not at these game. I don’t follow the team “and keep my head in the sand” becuase I was not at these games.
Me talking about the 2011 preseson has NOTHING to do with two Giant-Eagle games.

My point is a simple one.
You seem to speak from a point of knowledge, when in fact its obvious you haven’t been watching. Certainly not all of the games. Those of us that have see the weaknesses, and the strengths of our team. You seem to have some blind faith that all is well. There are many good things about our team. However, there are a number of weaknesses just not addressed. The Eagles did that, and despite my hatred, I grudgingly admit they did it well.
what point of knowlegde
is this a preseason game or not?

Dude the first stringers were out after 2 series
They dominated on both sides of the ball, without four of their top starters. That’s what I’m talking about. Preseason or not.
no
your arugment seems to be against me “you see no weaknesses in the team” “head in sand” “don’t watch games”.
Now you bring up this issue

DUDE
ITS THE FRIGGIN PRESEASON…the games don’t count who cares what the Eagles are doing anyways…
Die hard Giants fan since wide Right! I was 5...
Eagles didn't adress all their weaknesses.
The O-line is suspect, and they have zero good linebackers, about 3 less than us.

For real.
With all that spending, they didn’t address the one major weakness in their defense. LBs.
But anyway, to the 2 guys debating about “being a real fan” and “being at MM2”…. real fans wait till the end of the season to make their judgement on their team. Just saying cause the Miami Heat looked great on paper and the Dallas Mavericks weren’t even suppose to be in contention. True story.

There is no question they are better, much better in recent years
It’s called a scoreboard. And we’ve been on the losing side of it for three years. I actually applaud Reese for doing what he’s done. He drafted these guys. Now it’s time to play them. If you aren’t going to play them, don’t draft them.
and the preseason scoreboard means what????????

not a preseason scoreboard. Read the post before you hit the reply button.
I'm not talking about the past 3 years
when did I ever say anything about Giants vs Eagles? I replied to your post about the eagles “killing” the Ravens 1st stringers. Never once did I mention Giants vs the Eagles

Hey 42
What’s your take on this year? How are feeling about what Reese and Coughlin have done? No sarcasm, really want to know.
I think they'll make the playoffs
The only thing that worries me is that they are putting all their eggs in one basket.
I want to see the youngsters step up but if they don’t then the team is gonna struggle. I think they may be relying on players who haven’t had that much “real” game experience. I mean…what happens if they don’t play at a high level? Then the team is left looking like the end of last year and the year before that. Plus, we know they have a hard time adjusting so it’ll be interesting to see how well they handle any unexpected obstacles?

Thank you!
And you capitalized a proper noun! You’re getting there!
However...
“Oh” is an interjection, and must be followed with a comma. It should read, “Oh, you mean a Zeppelin.”
In addition,
you might follow it with an exclamation point of the emotion is strong. Such as, “Oh! You mean a Zeppelin!” See? Thus endeth the lesson. Now, that will be a few beers, please.
Whoops! "IF" If the emotion is strong.
Damn beers.

the Grammar 101 you have taught us all here today, the point remains… I can’t take you seriously if you keep putting words in my mouth on arguments I never made. And questioning my fandom, the was the final straw.

Damn skippy they're making the playoffs
Last night, a comedian died in New York. Somebody knows why. Somebody knows
Graziano put it well earlier
They HAD a plan….which was to resign Smith and/or Boss. They now need to adjust that plan, and going totally in-house just won’t work.
As for playoffs….yeah, I don’t see it unless Eli plays like 2009 Eli.
There is no hope.... there is no future....there is only GRISSIONZ
The 2011 Mets- Rock bottom: We haven't reached it yet
Actually
Reese said that the plan was to make offers to their free agents and to move on if they didn’t re-sign – not to assume that they would.

Like...
Drafting Jernigan and Barden, and signing Cruz, and knowing that Hixon will be back?
As for TE, he feels that Beckum can get the 35 receptions that Boss got last year. We’ll see how he does with the blocking. Coughlin already said that the Giants offense will have to be a little different with Beckum.

Reese is free-balling it and he doesn't care who knows it.
No excuses. No Pollyanna talk about a play here or there. Reese put his neck under the guillotine. If the Giants don’t deliver, then he and Coughlin should buy black pillow cases. If the Giants make the playoffs – or God forbid – win the division, then he can mockingly moon the entire media in his playoff press conference.
I believe in letting the young guys play. You’ve spent months – if not years – scouting these players before you picked them. Let them play and learn on the field. The Steelers do it. The Pats do it. They don’t sign a lot of big free agents because they scout well for the draft and develop the players that they’ve drafted.
Reese wants Sintim, Barden, Beatty, and others to be given a legitimate shot at playing time. He said so a few months ago and based on the coaches’ comments, Reese has convinced them of implementing that. He believes that they will deliver. So do I. Go BLUE.

Wow. How articulate and well thought out.
The “no life he never gets laid” line. The originality is staggering.
In looking over the names of players that have departed....
Boss, Smith, Cofield, O’Hara and Seubert Seubert, the only one I’d have felt confident depending on for this season was Cofield. Boss wasn’t very good last year, O’Hara had multiple injuries and was a question mark, in addition to being long in the tooth and Smith and Seubert have been top flight players, but both were coming off of serious injury and weren’t expected to be ready for the season to start. I’m guessing that if we’d kept those five players, all would be question marks and the fan base would be demanding new signings of people to take over if they weren’t ready or able to do well.
That leaves only Cofield, who I really like as a player, but both he and Boss were signed to GENEROUS deals elsewhere, and we’ve spent two drafts getting young, massive defensive tackles who obviously we rate highly.
I’d agree that we needed an addition in the offensive line, which we got, and if I were Matt Dodge and read Reese’s remarks, I think I’d be keeping my suitcase packed. But whether one wants to place blame on Dodge or not, he was a weak point last year and his inability to follow instructions ultiimately led to the Giants not being in the playoffs. If he can get his act together and win this year’s punting job, more power to him, but I’m glad Reese isn’t depending on that.
All in all, I think we lost three guys who were questionable for the season due to injury, a so-so tight end and a good defensive tackle. We added a fine punter and a center. I don’t see where that makes us significantly worse off, and I think we had a fine and deep draft.
"responsible offers"
Just don’t get it done when other teams have so much to spend…..except for that Boss/Raiders deal that still gets me. I thought they were in worse cap trouble than we are!
"Can't win with Tom Quinn"
cap trouble doesn't have anything to do with it
it has everything to do with making the right offer.
When you have a pair of BALLS, you realize that the offer is the offer. You don’t stray from it. If they don’t like it, the player leaves. Simple as that.
Last night, a comedian died in New York. Somebody knows why. Somebody knows
right
bottom line…shit happens. So, deal with it.
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..

You mean to tell me
If JR doesn’t have to worry about the cap,that he still would have made the same moves,and made the same offers!! Cuz I find that very hard to believe!
"Can't win with Tom Quinn"
no...he would have made different moves but the point is that we did have cap issues so
the debate gets us nowhere

I think he would have

surprising how
we only play lights out when our backs are against the wall. Its sad that is the only thing that motivates this team but it’s good that we’re being overlooked (somewhat) this year.
Nobody wins the SB in August
its sooo funny
that even though guys on here and other sites you think would be used to the annual workings of the highs and lows of the off season. It still never ceases to amaze me how volitile and panic stricken even the beat writers heloooooo is anybody in there we havn’t even played one pre-season game cmon guys lets get it together let it play out and see what we see. The way i see it we have zero pressure cause nobody expects much out of us except Vegas. Just take a chill pill and watch the season unfold isn’t that why we are football fans to begin with!

The review is done by the booth
the ref on the field doesn’t stop play at all, unless he gets buzzed. There will be minimum extra disruption.

Dude,
those friggin replays after a TD are dreadful. Of course there’s a commercial during the review, then they come back say it was a friggin TD, kick the extra point, go to another commercial, come back kickoff, then go to yet another commercial. They added another commercial break, and covered it up by saying we are going to review all TDs, cuz our refs are blind and can’t see the brown ball pass over the white goal line.

we think we have a strong team = say what exactly? can i translate: we are hoping to god we have a strong team. next time say this: we know we have a strong team.
yeah, prove it thats what i say. prove it and go out and beat Philly twice I double dare you to do that JR and front office.
Yeah
JR and the FO don’t actually play in the games. They select players and stake their careers and reputations on those players performing. That’s what they are doing, time for the players to go get some.

Eh,
you see that bomb to Fitzgerald? Guy all over Fitz, caught it one handed, over the shoulder, on his face mask. Retarded catch. Now that they have a QB that can actually get it deep to Fitz, and Beanie Wells looked good, they might be odds on favorite in that wasteland they call a division.

Terrible defense
that ball hung up. Great play by Fitz to go get it, but the defender didn’t even make a play on the ball. John Skelton can loft it up just as easily. That play was 15% Kolb, 20% defender fail, and 65% Fitzgerald awesomeness.

I hope Sintim, Barden, and Beatty succeed,

Beatty at LT is definitely going to make an impact

"It's time for other guys to have opportunities." -- Tom Coughlin
It's about damn time. Why weren't they given opportunities before? Huh?!?!
Uhh Jerry, Ever heard of Darren Sharper?
“How many big, sexy moves did the Green Bay Packers make last year? I don’t remember a lot. Who won before? Pittsburgh. How many big sexy moves did they have? You develop players. The making the splash, the big sexy moves, I don’t know if that always works. Who won the Super Bowl before Pittsburgh? The Saints, did they have any big sexy moves? I don’t remember any. I don’t remember a lot if they did. You make solid football decisions. … I don’t know if all the big, sexy moves are the right way to go,” Reese said.
Ignoring the fact that Jerry got them out of order (PIT,NO,GB) Sharper had nine picks, three pick sixes for a team that had all the pieces in place on offense, they just needed a playmaker on defense. Turned out pretty big and sexy IMHO.
Two years ago I noted that the Giants were the only team of 32 that made no trades of draft picks the entire draft. I wondered if that meant anything. Now I’m concerned that while he might be a great judge of talent, Mr. Reese is a little too passive, especially in a truncated off-season like this one.
We shall see...

The Sharper signing was a yawn in the preseason
That’s what he was talking about, you could call our Kawika Mitchell signing a big splash in retrospect
He has made trades, but like it or not the team he inherited wasn’t as sound as the team today. The difference in 2007 were two big playmakers, Strahan and Burress. Now the team is deeper, younger and top to bottom more talented. Doesn’t mean they will win again, but it should give him more flexibility to make moves going forward.
"That's mostly fans who say that kind of stuff and they really don't understand the process. We have good players on the team. We're not looking to go out and make every sexy splash that can be made. We make solid football decisions. That's been happening for a long time," Reese said
This may have been discussed above but I barely skimmed the entirety of the post.
It’s acknowledged that Mr. Coughlin will be shown the door should our beloved G-men not make the playoffs but does the same apply to Mr. Reese? Do we clean house entirely if we don’t make the playoffs?
I think TC stays if we are 8-8 or better
I just don’t see a housecleaning because we underachievers. I think it needs to be a real blow up. I think Reese is almost bulletproof. It’s just the Mara way.
Jerry Jones would have fired TC before he left stadium after the Eagles game last year.

What should have been done?
-Beatty is a question mark…sorta, kinda, but not really. An old and recovering O’Hara and Suebert definitely are. JR made the right call.
-Deihl is healthy and better at G than LT. Good choice.
-JR wanted Baas and got him. Sweet.
-Maybe Dodge gets better and dramatically decreases mistakes. MAYBE. Weatherford IS good, present tense. Mystery solved.
-Boss was offered what he was offered. He’s not worth what he got. You overpay where there is a clear need (see A. Rolle). Beckum is ready, Ballard can block, Hynoski looks great so Bear can TE. This may be the biggest question mark but Boss was not worth paying for the answer. Prudent decision there.
-Steve Smith is gone. He wasn’t starting the year and will not be 100% in 2011 anyway. JJ12 was drafted for insurance on Smith not returning, whether by FA or injury. Great forishgt by JR. Plus, holy damn are we loaded at WR.
-Kiwi, Goff, Boley. As usual, cries for a LB are misplaced. Kudos to JR for standing pat on this again.
-The secondary, Prince or not, was set, is set, and will be set when he returns.
-Potentially JPP > Osi and Potentially Osi = NYG. Nothing to be done here.
JR made his “sexy splashes” in the last 3 years drafting, trading, and in FA to make sure we are set when guys leave. We’ll be fine.
Answer this honestly. SS signing aside, would you be this worried about our moves if the Eagles had not done everything they did?
We don't play for the wild card around here kid
You're misinterpreting
What he’s saying is that he did everything that he thought he SHOULD do to improve the team
Isn’t it comforting that the team believes enough in their younger guys to give them a shot? The team may be wrong, but the sentiment is right.
"That's mostly fans who say that kind of stuff and they really don't understand the process. We have good players on the team. We're not looking to go out and make every sexy splash that can be made. We make solid football decisions. That's been happening for a long time," Reese said

He’s holding his nuts in his hand and saying “This is the team we have, I’ve loaded up on young talented players through the draft, time for them to shine. We were a 10-6 team last year, and there is no reason we can’t reach that mark or better this year. We should have been a playoff team last year, we will be one this year. And if we’re not, I’ll take the blame. Don’t blame the players, the youth, the inexperience, the coaching staff. Blame me and the decisions I made.”
I love it. He’s sacking up, he said this team should make the playoffs, and I totally agree. And by saying that, he puts the spotlight on himself, and the off season he had, not on the players or the coaches. That’s a good GM, I don’t care what anyone says.

SB 42 was forever ago, that being said, we need to try and pick up a good GM in the free agency!!!!

Don't under estimate this team's determination this season either.
The players that were here last year are probably a little pissed off about
A) The 2nd Eagles debacle, and
B) Being a 10-6 team and not making the playoffs.
Motivation like that cannot be measured.

Maybe the Eagles debacle
But the Patriots came off an 11-5 season where they didn’t make the playoffs, and promptly got embarrassed in the playoffs the next year by the Ravens.
Motivation matters, but talent wins out. This team will win because JPP, Nicks, Austin, and Beatty are ready to shine, not because they want it more. Wanting it is the difference between being an embarrassment like the Vikings and merely mediocre like Texans. We’re aiming for more here I hope.
Why the assumption that 10 and 6 automatically means the playoffs?
In a division with the Saints, Packers, Eagles, Bears and Giants, I just don’t see that. The Patriots were 11-5 and missed them. When you don’t win the division, it’s not a gimmie, whether you win ten games or not. Now of those teams, the Bears might be questionable, but the others are all strong teams, and 10-6 is no automatic entry to the playoffs. Last year proved that.
Since you like to nitpick...
Out of the teams you listed, only the Eagles are in the save division as the Giants. The Saints, Packers, and Bears are in the same conference as the Giants. I’ll only charge five bucks for that one since I’m not a professional.

Yeah I gotta reply as well.
You pooped all over this thread up top with your English teacher lessons, so now I’ll give you a basic football lesson.
All those teams you mention, are in the same CONFERENCE. It’s called the National Football Conference. There is one other conference in the NFL, it’s called the American Football Conference. The winners of each conference meet in the Super Bowl each year to determine the champion of professional football.
Or is it the Superblow?
Feel free to proof read. I actually didn’t mind the ‘lessons’ last night. It was kind of funny. :-)
I will be at the season opener NYG @ WAS with a few friends. If you are going and feel like looking up a fellow BBVer and having some fun, let me know.
I don't buy that
I’ll take a team with a little less talent who wants it 10x more than the team with more talent. We’ll see who wins, at least in the playoffs, when it matters.

that's a shame
It’s almost as exciting as a Cardinals Raiders regular season game.

LOL
I don’t remember it, but Cardinals Raiders sounds like a real barn burner.

Play off
The Giants will definitely get into the play off if only they cut back the TO’s to about half
from last year. We have team chemistry that a lot of teams don’t have.
and abundance of talent too. We won’t miss the players that left, the only player any team
will miss is the QB, as long as the QB can play the team will do just fine.

So True...
We had an ABYSMAL amount of turnovers last year and barely missed the playoffs. I surely don’t expect Eli to throw that many INTs this year, in fact I expect him to go back to 2009 numbers. Eli’s numbers have gone up, up and up every year, while his INTs have gone down (excluding last year). Nicks, and HAM are play makers on offense, Tuck, JPP, and Rolle are playmakers on D. I like our odds.
On another note, I don’t buy the Eagles D. Their D line is still a question mark, their LBs are a BIG question mark, and their Safeties are their biggest question mark. Corners are nice, but Corners alone don’t win shit!

I thought his 2008 INTs
were lower than his 2009 INTs.
