Jonathan Goff Out For Year, Kawika Mitchell To Be Signed
by Ed Valentine on Sep 6, 2011 4:48 PM EDT
in New York Giants News
Email
PrintI have no idea how or when this happened, but the New York Giants have announced that starting middle linebacker Jonathan Goff has suffered a torn ACL and is out for the season. The team will apparently sign former Giant Kawika Mitchell to take his roster spot.
This is a huge loss. I guess this makes rookie Greg Jones, the sixth-round pick and Mike Farley's favorite Giant, the starting middle linebacker Sunday against the Washington Redskins.
More on this when the details become available.

Unbelievable
If we were 10 weeks into the season maybe I could understand losing so many to season ending injuries. But we haven’t even played the first game!

I think playing behind the Giants DL is the 'easiest" it can get for a rook.
Last night, a comedian died in New York. Somebody knows why. Somebody knows
true. I'd wager to say its the toughest job on the defense for a rookie.
But yes, you’re right, behind that DL should make things easier for him

Also...
every opposing offense is going to try and exploit the rookie, which isn’t going to make anything easier on him. I think Fewell will figure it out ok though.
I am hopeful
that what I saw by him in the preseason will translate to the regular season. That is not a given though. Who really knows for sure though.

Coughlin quote
Coughlin was talking about the long injury list that accompanied the 4-12 record in Fassel’s final season, when he said that injuries can be a "cancer," and suggested that some players get comfortable in the training room. "It is something that has to be corrected," Coughlin said. "It is a mental thing, I believe, as much as it is anything else."
Could it be something to do with the artificial turf. Most of them are the same kind of injury, like happened to Hixon and Sintim last year.
by hopeforthefuture3 on Sep 6, 2011 5:00 PM EDT reply actions
When you collide...
and let’s say your cleats get caught in the turf somehow, then the ACL is vulnerable. It just might be the turf, but I was under the impression it was the newer variety that was made from ground up tires. That turf gives, and it’s hard to catch your cleats on it.
offically depressed
Greg Jones.. its your time to shine.
Dear Lord,
Please stop injuring our Giants. I’m not sure what we did that caused you to crush our dreams and our team’s ACL’s, but we’re very very sorry. We would all appreciate it if this didnt happen again. Thanks God!
Amen.

But it’s good to keep it a little light right now or at least as light as we can. Goff is a tough loss. In fact it just plain stinks and it hurts even more because of everyone else that went down so far, it’s unreal. But I think Jones will fill in well. We’ve actually had worse LB’s on this team not too long ago. Again, I feel the pain man but I have faith

Goff, underpaid, late round draft pick. Setting himself up for a nice contract after this season, something that can set him and his family up for life. Just like TT. And boom, major injury, will have to play for pennies next year just to prove himself. Very sad situation for these players.

Ive wondered this for years. & maybe Im just frustrated & exaggerating but, is it any coincidence that we are one of the few teams that do ZERO live hitting in training camp, yet we continually get blasted by the injury gods? maybe if we were a little tougher & used to getting knocked around, we might be able to handle the awkward collisions. Or maybe we wouldnt be co concerned with not tackling someone that we’d collide in a “natural” way. Or am I way off base on this?

"Sometimes you make a mistake and you get hit in the head." - Eli Manning
Maybe...
with the way they’re being trained, there’s an imbalance with their quad training vs ham training. Who knows? But it certainly does seem suspect. It’s just too common to be a coincidence it seems.
You guys
Are all chasing ghosts with this stuff about quad vs. hamstring training, the turf, taught to plant their feet incorrectly. Give it a rest. Injuries happen to all teams and some years are worse than others. So far, this is a ridiculously bad one for the Giants. There’s no explanation for broken bones and torn up knees other than this — it’s football.

I’d rather bring in Lofa if he’s avail. Or stick w/ what we have.
Was wondering about him
Figured they would bring him back since he is a MLB and was in camp. I guess cutting him wasn’t a close call.

Gonna be a long, long season.
Goff is a premier run stopping LB up the middle. This is just as big of a blow as losing T2, if you ask me. At least with T2 we have adequate CBs to replace him that we know will be able to step in and make an impact.
Losing Goff? We have no idea how well Jones will be able to handle the NFL as a rookie, let alone call plays and run the defense.

Silver Lining
Horrible news but i’m also excited to see what our young LB’s can do like Jones and Herzlich. This is from The Blue Screen last week: Do you expect LB Mark Herzlich to make the team? You know, that’s a tough one. The Giants have a lot of LBs they like (stop laughing). More importantly they have a lot of young LBs who were draft picks and they aren’t likely to give up on many of those. I think Herzlich’s best bet is to make the practice squad, but who knows what will happen if he plays well tonight?

On the bright side we can see what this draft class can do...
a crappy season isn’t the end of the world. It’ll probably mean the end of TC in NY, albeit unfairly but hopefully we’ll promote Fewell to be the HC and bring in a new OC and a new ST coach. I guess that’s the silver lining I see here.
Opposite Effect...
I see the opposite effect. This gives TC ANOTHER excuse and probably another 1 year extension.
Nah
the guy has run his course with the Giants. I don’t think he would have survived last season if not for the impending lockout.
I want Gruden.
nah man
he’s going to be here next year. There’s no way you can fire him when all of these injuries has happened.
Not Gruden

Don’t forget Mitchell has had some key plays for us and I guess because he spent a few seasons under Fewell in Buffalo is the reason they are looking at him. So lets not write this off yet.

2 monthsago I was expecting Jones, Herzlich and Willams to be the starting linebackers ,in a year or 2.Now its looks like Paysinger,Jones ,and Herzlich may be starting sooner then that.This is a blessing in disguise.Last year everbody wanted Mclain to be drafted to replace Goff,well now we got Jones.This is good news guys.Just like when Sintim got hurt.I feel bad for those guys but it’s additon by subtraction.Giants are better off,and by the way Mitchell is great in the lockeroom and the Giants need leaders now.
To quote Tiki's agent
I am flabbergasted.
I still think something is going on. Why so many ACLs? We must be leading the league. Is it the training?
I am totally ignorant about this but it is happening over and over. Time to investigate.
Greg Jones will be good but to say he is ready is folly. Not under control yet.
This is gonna be a season of wild swings.
All the Giants should play like Mark Bavaro.

It is equally worthless when people are always optimistic or always pessimistic. Either way I take their opinion with a pound of salt because I know they only have one setting. I post my own thoughts, not what either side wants to read.
NO need to wory IMO
The only guy Giants lost that actually produced was Terrell Thomas. Even though Giants fans were huge on Joseph, who never showed anything in regular season yet, and Goff (who is just another guy at best) this is all replacable talent. OK if Tuck goes down, then you can hit the panic button

the truth
is in the middle. he had a very very good camp, and he finished the year well. most guys have been screaming for a new MLB for awhile now (that’s why we took dillard i suppose, but remember Ayers mania?) even when Goff was playing. he was good, talented, smart, NOT The best in the league, and NOT as damaging as TT
the problem is this: you have to allocate injuries along the way, and to start like this sucks. i mean, it feels like week 13 with all the guys we have (potentially impactful guys) done for the year. if we don’t get lucky for the rest of the year, we will have practice squad guys on our starters on xmas eve vs the jets

It's silly to think the Giants D-Line didn't help Goff a lot.
I think Goff was an above average player, definitely more than serviceable, but he wasn’t the next ray lewis or anything.
agreed too
The whole D-line had a good year last year, Coefield, Canty, Tuck, Oi, etc.. That’s why I think the biggest loss was in FA (Coefield), and in T2… Otherwise, depth was lost, which hurts, but I don’t see the Giants doomed
JoeD AKA The Voice Of Reason
not doomed
but i still think u underestimate the value of Goff. U just dont replace a fulltime starter with a guy off the street or 1st time rookie & expect similiar results
Nobody wins the SB in August
Talk is Cheap! Play the Game!
Dont get me wrong, these injuries will hurt depth
But I think the Giants live and die on their D-line play. They still have that, I think they’ll be OK
JoeD AKA The Voice Of Reason
"losing depth" is not the explanation for whats happened
If Paysinger got hurt, we’d only be losing depth. We lost a starter. & to think that there will no drop off in level of play is just plain stupid. I agree with Joe that our DLine is what makes this defense go, but u still play the game with 11 guys.

but the fact is he was very good against the run last year. And I was responding to the comment that “he’s just another guy at best”

Like I said
I don’t think Goff was just another guy, I would rate him as below average against the pass and pretty good against the run. All in all, I think he had a great year last year and that this probably hurts us more because he is an intelligent signal caller who is familiar with our defense, not because we won’t be able to replace his physical abilities.
BTW, the article says: “secret superstar” so unless you’re going to quote it and then disclaim it and say, “he’s not a superstar” I don’t see how this isn’t pumping him up.
Just sayin’
every team over rates their players
See; Ham is better than Jackson thread..
But that’s my point. I don’t think it’s going to be a devastating loss..
JoeD AKA The Voice Of Reason
I didn't quote the article
because of the title. I quoted it because it actually contains statistics to show why Goff was so good last year, and that was his first full year as a starter. Is he a superstar like Willis or Lewis right now? No, but if last year was any indication he was on the right path.

Goff was a young guy who was looking to improve on a good first year starting
Was he replaceable yes, however are we prepaired to replace him this year not so sure, but we are going to find out

I mean you say
he’s “i’m not being melodramatic” and then link to an article whose title says “secret superstars”
this is a stupid line of conversation. point being, if you wanted to say “he had 100 tackles” you could have said “he had 100 tackles”
My apologies
for being lazy and providing a link to an article, instead of quoting each of the statistics provided in that article.

man, i don't really care what you do
but at least own up to pumping goff up a little bit over one silly article.
i agree with you, Goff had a good season last year but let’s just pump the brakes a little bit and consider the fact that it was just one season and you’re quoting just one article that deals primarily with some obscure metric that nobody but the creators of this website use.
Alright
so you don’t agree with PFF. That’s fine. I think we can agree that Goff is going to be pretty tough to replace, but hopefully they can find a way to do it.

Justin Tuck doesn't get much coverage and he's one of the top 5 pass rushers in the NFL
the Giants don’t get much pub unless they shoot themselves.
Last night, a comedian died in New York. Somebody knows why. Somebody knows
hell no
its painfully obvious that Tuck doesn’t get the recognition he deserves. If you want to stay delusioned to say he’s mentioned with the best in the game like he should, then that’s on you.
Goff’s numbers said he was one of the better run stopping LBs in the NFL last year. That it wasn’t in the mainstream is irrelevant…contrarian would be to say that “oh hey he plays in NY and he doesn’t get pub he must be overrated”.
That gives the ignorant ass NY media waaaaaaaay too much credit.
Last night, a comedian died in New York. Somebody knows why. Somebody knows
No
A contrarian would say, everyone thinks he’s good so he must not be. I highly doubt a contrarian would have anything to say about a player that everyone else is ambivalent about, but that’s neither here nor there.
I guess we differ on what “coverage” means. Tuck is mentioned regularly as one of the best in the game. He doesn’t draw a lot of attention to himself, so maybe there’s something to that, but I don’t think anyone in the mainstream media is overlooking Tuck’s abilities.
He is, now.
Tuck is always overlooked in the mainstream. All of a sudden ESPN got put on to Jason Tuck and they had to investigate.
And many think Goff had a good year last year, mainly due to his run stopping. To just write off an article is just being contrarian.
Last night, a comedian died in New York. Somebody knows why. Somebody knows
I love this.
You: “Tuck is constantly overlooked by the media.”
Me: “Well, actually he gets a lot of media coverage…”
You: “Well yea … now!”
Dude, that line of debate is ridiculous.
And like I said above, whenever we talk about Goff, all we do is quote one article that utilizes a metric that nobody else but the writers of that particular website use. I don’t know how it’s calculated, what it means or how it translates to actual play but I do know that the NY Media Market does a good job covering actual superstars on NY based teams. Sure, Goff might be an exception, but it’s pretty unlikely.
The NY media sucks

Hate to break it to you
but the Jets have proven it. They’ve made it to the AFC Championship the past two years in a row and they have the Patriots in their division.
Sure, maybe the NY media is a bit overhyped about the jets, but that doesn’t mean they suck and they don’t give credit where credit is due. We haven’t made the playoffs in the past two years despite the fact that we were given EVERY opportunity last year and came up short EVERY time. I don’t expect the NY media to be all about the Giants or players on the Giants when they don’t deliver in kind.
Not gonna bother wasting my time with you
Jets won 2 more regular season games than us the last 2 years.
Self-praise is for losers. Be a winner. Stand for something. Always have class, and be humble.

There's not much room for error in the NFL. That's what separates playoff caliber teams from the NY Giants.
Also, they won those games against teams likeNew England, while we struggled to beat teams like Jacksonville. When was the last big game the giants won? Carolina in 2008?
I think Jets D is great and their O is terrible, but you can’t deny that they get up to play and we just haven’t.
The Jets struggled to beat
the Broncos, Lions, Browns, and Texans.
In fact many would argue they should’ve lost all of them.
I wouldn’t, but that’s the breaks
And now I’m done

They do have a number of interesting wildcard type players though. Nothing to count on, but at the very least it’ll be interesting and exciting to watch. The schedule isn’t too bad (or at least, it appears that way now) until the second half, so if one or more of the new guys is going to step up and do something they should have a great chance.

Last night, a comedian died in New York. Somebody knows why. Somebody knows
Prevention
Read this online! Athletes can reduce their risk of ACL injuries by performing training drills that require balance, power and agility. Adding plyometric exercises, such as jumping, and balance drills helps improve neuromuscular conditioning and muscular reactions and ultimately shows a decrease in the risk of ACL injury. Many team physicians now routinely recommend an ACL conditioning program.The Santa Monica ACL Prevention Project developed an ACL Injury Prevention Program specifically for female soccer players. This 15-minute training program incorporates balance, agility and performance drills into the warm up phase of training and practice……….Sounds like something CAN be done to help prevent ACL injurys……the Question is IS there anything being done?

Last night, a comedian died in New York. Somebody knows why. Somebody knows
I don't know if I've ever heard of
any football team’s upper level management ever actually looking seriously into whether a team’s medical/training staff as a whole was so incompetent that they were the cause of a slew of injuries.
I guess it’s possible, but I don’t see how it could possibly happen.
these guys don't get their licenses in a cracker jack box
they’re real live doctors and all a that. Sure some doctors are quacks, but not the ones that get paid in the NFL. Waaaaay too much money invested in these players to not have the best doctors. Its just foolish fear mongering to think they’re the cause of these injuries
Last night, a comedian died in New York. Somebody knows why. Somebody knows
That's what I'm saying
It seems reactionary to get up in arms about the training staff when the more logical explanation is really bad luck.
The ACLs are bad luck hands down
I do however see fault in thier conditioning. Every year in camp we have how many guys come up with hamstirng injuries that are easily preventable with proper stretching.
I was never some allstar athlete yet the only injury I sustained from football was a blown out knee from a bad angle on impact.

Mason Foster vs. Greg Jones
I really wanted Mason Foster in the draft, especially over Ayers. When he was there in the third, I had hoped that Reese would take him. Instead he took Jernigan. He got Greg Jones later in the draft so I thought it was a wash.
Well, Foster is starting at MLB for Tampa Bay. They let Ruud go because of Foster. It’s not ideal but if Foster can start, then why can’t Jones? I know that Jones hasn’t been preparing to be the starter so it’s a lot to throw at him 5 days before Week 1. I know that Tampa Bay doesn’t have the same Super Bowl expectations that the Giants have. Nonetheless, Jones is as experienced and NFL-ready as a rookie can be. He was a 4-year starter in the B1G and was always known for being a heady player.
We aren’t getting any studs off of the waiver wire. We’ll have to make do with Jones.

Well the advantage of it being early in the season is
He has a whole year to recover before the start of 2012. But by then he may have a tough time unseating the incumbent. We just dumped two linebacker draft picks. Coach must be pretty comfortable with the new guys.
I am a fan of Kevin Gilbride and I don't care what you say
he got hurt again
but Sintim looked as quick and fast as ever. So Goff, and TT for that matter whould both be fine
Last night, a comedian died in New York. Somebody knows why. Somebody knows
What's the fuss about Goff???
It’s not like Goff is some All Pro or soon to be one……the guy has done nothing in his 2 seasons and it’s time to get a good look at the young guys. Jones, Herzlich, and Williams could turn out to be stars. Let’s find out now and stop with all the ‘panicing’. Kiwi should be in the DE mix and not an LB and that will come to the forefrunt sooner rather than later. I wish Goff a speedy recovery and all but I hope by the time he comes back next year the Giants will have discovered one or 2 of these young LB’s as rising stars!!!!
so Goff's done nothing but lets look at the players who literally have done nothing
oh…oh ok.

To be frank, how often do late rounders and UDFA become stars?
Just because we want them to be great doesn’t mean they will be.
Goff was actually pretty damn solid last year, especially against the run.
There is no hope.... there is no future....there is only GRISSIONZ
The 2011 Mets- Rock bottom: We haven't reached it yet
Antonio Pierce, James Harrison, Jessie Armstead
Hopefully we got all 3 in one off season >_>
AND CALLED THE DAMN DEFENSE
It is a loss for us and Jones, if he fills the hole, will need to grow up FAST!!!!!
The Future is Now...
To me, I am more upset at the loss of Austin and Prince than TT and Goff….
I don’t see the situation as dire. TT had a ton of tackles because he was targeted, Goff in my view was holding a spot nobody could win. And he stinks on specials.
I say bring on the rooks. I don’t like seeing these guys lost to injury, but I think there is a bright side to it. I love Kavika also even as a fossil. He is a better blitzing linebacker than any we have and he plays forward.
There is no bright side to losing two of our best defensive players
There is no hope.... there is no future....there is only GRISSIONZ

Whats laughable about this thread....
Is the plethora of posters that have been saying “linebackers don’t matter in our defense, it doesnt matter that our LBs suck”….
Are now on here crying in their beer over the loss of Goff.
Please.
I don't think many that said the LBs "suck" are crying in their beer over this
you should know since you were one of the main ones beating that drum, and you obviously couldn’t care any less about losing Goff.
That’s laughable
Last night, a comedian died in New York. Somebody knows why. Somebody knows
You are right
In that I think our LBs are among the worst in this league
Goff was holding a position for whoever our future MLB will be. He has no football instincts, he is a robot who guesses the hole.
I know won’t miss him continually not making plays on specials.
Its a loss, I’m sorry he is hurt. But now it gives us a chance to find his replacement.
Hope your tears have not overflowed your glass.

that's debatable..
There might be too much pressure on him, since the Giants are competitive, and he’ll be starting as a rookie. But he will get a lot of playing time, which is theoretically better for him, so we’ll see.

Thing about this injury is that our depth is devastated.
With the exception of our defensive ends, nobody’s production was even close to irreplaceable.
Its just that when you have 3 CBs, 1 DT, 2 LBs go down to season ending injuries, and 1 rookie CB gone for 4 weeks, and a DE gone for 4 weeks, yeah, it hurts big time.
It’s not so much losing Goff as it is just the piling on at this point. This is not to take away from what Goff means to us, though. He’s a real good player, but I think Jones/Mitchell can come close to what he brings to the field.

In Reese we Trust
Gets put to the test.
Let’s face it, we all second guess JR from time to time (or at least some of us do). He has followed a fairly strict value-based drafting philosophy, which has led to him drafting two DT’s two years in a row round 2, DE’s when he seemingly didn’t need one (JPP), a slew of mid round LBs for a couple years, and DBs with high picks. This has led to the following: despite all their injuries (you could field a pretty damn good team with the guys who are out!), you can envision a situation where the Giant D is still awesome. Yes, some things need to fall into place (no more injuries, good play from our stand-in nickels, Jones playing about his draft grade for a rook, etc.) Yet, none of this seems far-fetched.
It really is a validation of the drafting philosophy. You never know what will happen injuries-wise, so you take the BPA. Our depth has taken a big hit, but I still like our starting 11 on D, no matter who is starting at MLB.

"I like prime rib, and I'd love to win a Super Bowl" -Andy Reid
Greg Jones
I personally love this description of him in the draft section on the NFL site. I’ll take a guy with “rare intangibles” any day. Given our D line, i think his weaknesses (e.g., when teams run at him, which means running first into Anvil and Canty) may be hidden.
Strengths
Jones is highly productive, extremely durable and has rare intangibles. Displays great range versus the run. Relentless in pursuit, using his hands to slip blockers. Closes on the ball-carrier in a hurry and can lay the wood. Rushes the quarterback from every angle. Blitzes up the middle, comes off the edge and even puts his hand down.
Weaknesses
Lacks bulk and strength. Susceptible when teams run downhill right at him. Blockers can overwhelm him with power or get into his legs with cut blocks. Doesn’t always take most direct path in pursuit. Has a tough time staying with quicker backs and tight ends in man coverage.
From all reports, he's been taking charge of whatever defense he's been in already
yelling at players and shizz….basically the reason why we wanted to draft Sean Weatherspoon some years ago. Got that fire.

C'mon, this is a big blow to overcome
Maybe Jones can be a good MLB for us eventually, but their wil be growing pains even if he is talented. I think losing Goff hurts us a lot for this year. So does losing TT. And losing Sintim hurts the LB depth. Losing Austin doesn’t affect us as much this year. As long as he comes back 100% next year, cause he’s going to be a great player for us in the long run.
Maybe we overcome all these injuries if our great players play great all year. But it’s very likely that in the NFL’s war of annual attrition we will eventually get too thin at some positions and get burned.
This really sucks, no way to sugar coat it.

There will be no more showers allowed and no more shaving by any members of the defense, especially LB’s. It has come to my attention that the soap may be slippery and razors sharp, therefore resulting in undue risk of Torn ACLs or lacerations of the face. All LB’s must request permission one week in advance for any priveleges…..
but all kidding aside….>>WTF!!!….this is ridiculous….guys getting hurt in practice!! Are they playing the Superbowl on practice days??? I am hoping i can see all this enthusiasm and hard hitting on SUNDAY guys……..not MONDAY practice!

oh yes......gain of 4.....anytime you need a big play on 3rd down...
generally WR gets tackled by one of our pulling guards..
gain of 4?
more like loss of 4, the last time the Giant end-around worked was in 2000 with Toomer

while you are at it, Mr. Reese.........how about a TE
that can catch a ball deeper than 3 yrds downfield…maybe to the first down marker? Seriously, are we going to go into this season with Bear, Beckum and Ballard

What's going on?
What’s with the Giants injuries the last few years?
Are these guys hitting too hard during practice?
Should be looking into. No other teams are having injuries like we do.

Super duper late to this … but WTF?
I just thought this is another day of non-football stuff, I thought they don’t practice till Wednesday? Anyways, bad news…b/c we don’t have a solid replacement – meaning someone that has played some real games with this defense at MLB…
but I like the Kawika Mitchell pickup…he never should have went to the Bills the first go around… but that’s come full circle.
I like Greg JONES …and I think he’ll have some rookie mistakes on Sunday, but overall he has been picking up the scheme (even though it’s been mostly vanilla against preseason opponents… here’s to hoping he gets a MONSTER game…
but that sucks for Goff… another ACL issue with this team…augh… get well soon.
