New York Giants News and Notes: I Smell Cheese Edition

PrintGood morning fellow Giants fans. It's well-documented that I live in Wisconsin, among fans of the green and gold. This whole state is very passionate about their Green Bay Packers, and rightly so. But they are just a bit fearful of Big Blue coming to town Sunday to try and ruin their near-perfect season. More on that in a separate post, but suffice to say it's interesting to live here this time around. On to the news this Friday morning, a little over 48 hours until kickoff....
Catching Aaron Rodgers will be a race against time for Giants' D-line | NJ.com
"1.7 seconds," the Giants’ defensive end said. "San Francisco, 2007. Quickest I’ve ever been there. I was unblocked, though." If only it were that easy for the Giants’ defensive linemen this Sunday in Green Bay against Aaron Rodgers. Maybe if they were all unblocked, they’d consider it to finally be a fair fight against one of the quickest releases in the NFL.
NY Giants head coach Tom Coughlin attempts to fill shoes of mentor Bill Parcells by winning second Super Bowl in eighth season - NY Daily News
"I just think he’s always been a very, very solid football guy," Parcells told the Daily News this week. "Hard working, determined, competitive and he’s definitely his own guy as a head coach. I thought he had tremendous ability to lead when he was an assistant coach. I could tell when he organized our receivers. I thought he would have a chance to be a good head coach."
Who among us doesn't love Parcells?
New York Giants playoff report: Aaron Ross cleared to practice, should play vs. Packers - NFL - Sporting News
The New York Giants got the news they were hoping for regarding cornerback Aaron Ross, who was forced out of last week’s playoff victory over the Atlanta Falcons with a concussion. Ross passed all the concussion protocol tests and was given medical clearance to practice, which he did on Wednesday. If he doesn't have a setback, Ross should be available to play on Sunday against the Green Bay Packers.
2012 Difference-makers - NFC East Blog - ESPN
But the November injuries to Michael Boley and Mark Herzlich were too much, and so the Giants called their old friend and brought him back Nov. 29. He started the very next game -- the one against the Packers on Dec. 4 -- and came up with an interception of Aaron Rodgers.
2012 NFL playoffs -- New York Giants kicker Lawrence Tynes inherited the toughness gene from his father - ESPN New York
He should have been shivering somewhere by a fire, praying that Tom Coughlin would never again call his number, doing something, anything at the NFC title game but exactly what he did: Throw off his jacket and charge onto the frozen field before Coughlin could go for it on fourth down.
This is a great article, if you are not blinded by that shirt Lawrence is wearing in that old photo.
Ex-Jet punter Weatherford thriving with Giants - WSJ.com
Well, the Giants certainly do. In his first season with them, Weatherford has been mostly a consistently solid addition with one terrific punt after another.
Green Bay Packers New York Giants playoffs – USATODAY.com
Wipe the slate clean for Sunday's rematch in Green Bay in the NFC divisional playoffs. But that game told quarterbacks Aaron Rodgers of the Packers and Eli Manning of the Giants that big plays were there for the taking. Now Rodgers and Manning meet for the first time in the postseason.
Niners, Giants Could Be This Year's Party Crashers | Fox News
The 49ers and Giants have other ideas, however, and both of these budding spoilers may just have what it takes to make everyone's NFC Championship fantasy simply that.
Ultimate Texans " McClain: Expect at least one upset in weekend’s games
In the NFC, it won’t be surprising if New Orleans or San Francisco wins. It won’t be too surprising if the Giants pull a second consecutive upset in Green Bay.
As some of you mentioned Thursday, a lot of pundits are saying the Giants can pull off the upset, and that is just a bit unsettling. Still, I'd prefer to be the underdog.
It won't be as cold, but NY Giants looking for repeat of magical 2007 playoff victory over Green Bay Packers at Lambeau Field this Sunday - NY Daily News
It won’t be nearly as cold on Sunday, when the Giants return to Green Bay for a divisional playoff game against the 15-1 Packers. If the forecast holds, it could feel almost 50 degrees warmer. But there are similarities to that classic game in the challenge these Giants are facing. They are a facing a team that seems unbeatable at home with a world-class quarterback and a deep army of receivers.
Green Bay Packers' B.J. Raji brings Jersey edge to the pregame playoff banter | NJ.com
B.J. Raji knows they’re last in the NFL in total defense and that they’re just a shade better than the 2006 Indianapolis Colts, the worst defense to win a Super Bowl.
In early matchup, New York and Wisconsin cheddars vie to see who’s the big cheese - NY Daily News
The Green Bay Packers’ most rabid fans, known as cheeseheads, take it as an article of faith that their state makes the best cheddar. But is it really any match for the New York version?
Let me set the record straight here. New York cheddar is positively no match for Wisconsin cheddar. I'm sorry, I had to say it. Whoever tested these cheeses did not try the cheese from Brennan's Market or a whole host of cheese farms around Wisconsin. There are many levels of sharp cheddar, marked by years aged, and let's just say the best cheese here is not mild as the article suggests.
However, ultimately, we have the better football team, right guys? Okay, maybe not, but we are very very good and peaking at the right time. And the fruit from the upset tree is ripe. Get your game faces on, fellas. It's GO time!

Lucky Clothes
Last year at Christmas, someone gave me a Giants t-shirt that was about two sizes too big for me…I affectionately call it the Giants moo moo. It is a game changer. I wore it for the first Eagles game, the Patriots game, then from the first Dallas game on…the exception being that I was driving home during the Redskins game and got home at about the end of the third quarter…it was too late. I changed into it at halftime of the Jets game. I have complete faith in the Giants moo moo, but I feel as if it is regular season apparel.
For the playoffs in 2007, I wore my Tiki Barber jersey (out of spite) with my cutoff shorts. After they beat the Cowboys, I decided I needed to wear it the rest of the way. Now, I have given it away and may have to switch. I can try my Eli Manning jersey this week, but every time I wear it during the regular season it ends in a loss. I did just get my New York Giant NFC East Champion t-shirt…maybe I’ll just roll with that.

Maybe the unpopular opinion
Love Parcells? No.
Like him? Eh.
Appreciate what he did when he coached the Giants? Absolutely.
It was bad enough watching him coach the Jets, but I’ll never get past seeing him with that ridiculous bleach blonde hair patrolling the Dallas sidelines. His word means nothing, and from the time he won the first SB with the Giants, his eye was always looking for the next job with the most power. His word means nothing.
Again: Love no, like eh, appreciate, hell yes.

Just to add a footnote, I respect Tom Coughlin a lot more than I ever will Bill Parcells. Tom Coughlin has taken more lumps (from myself included) than almost any coach I’ve ever seen in New York, and he just keeps going, keeps fighting back. He’s not looking to go to Atlanta to be the GM/coach, he doesn’t worry about who “cooks the food” or who “shops for the groceries”, he just coaches.
I don’t agree with everything Coughlin does, that’s my job as a fan. But I respect the hell out of him, and always will.

I agree with both your comments Jim..
Especially, Coughlin..He only bleeds blue and gets pounded all the time..Parcells as much as I like the guy left us high and dry..and he recommended Ray Handley for HC (ouch !!) …Bill B. was never going to get a chance by G. Young…
But yeah seeing Parcells on the Jets and Cowboy sidelines really bothered me..and his waffling from team to team was mind-boggling..His last project in Miami was a total flop, too.
Bill B. has eclipsed him as a HC..
"When I was a boy and I had no sense..I got my pecker caught in an electric fence..Well it curled my hair, tickled my balls and made me shit in my overalls..."
Oh he left an unmitigated disaster in Miami, it will take them years to recover, I don’t care how well they played down the stretch.

When he left after 90 Super Bowl the timing set the franchise back. Hurt draft prep, and was after Bellichick went to Browns. You’d think considering that the team had been very good to him he’d have stuck it out and allowed the team to transition smoothly.
It’s already a wrap… might as well not show up tomorrow.

Well, the word always was that George Young didn’t like Belichick, and was never going to hire him as coach. Now that may have just been spin-doctoring, but it is what it is.

That's the way I heard it back then..
"When I was a boy and I had no sense..I got my pecker caught in an electric fence..Well it curled my hair, tickled my balls and made me shit in my overalls..."
Another reason why Young should be in the HOF
I had never heard that before.
Blue is the color of melancholy and honesty
Green is the color of inexperience, envy and nausea.
I heard the same thing
But if Parcells had quit 2 weeks earlier, at least it would have been a choice. It still burns me up how late he made that decision. It definitely hurt the team, and as mad as he may have been at George Young, he could have remembered that Young hired him when he was a young unknown.

He will always be my favorite Giants coach
He was a master at motivation . We won 2 super bowls with the Tuna and he really instilled the toughness and Was the Architect for the Identity of this football team. Which is Smash mouth ground and pound Offense and a ferious D
Why is Tom Quinn still here? I loves me some Coach Clawfin.
He was great w/Giants...
Now he just needs to be Harpooned.

Two words: Ray Handley
As noted Parcells always had a wandering eye and the way he eventually left and the timing of it kind of screwed the Giants and left them with few options which lead directly to Ray Handley.

Curse you, Ray Handley
most of all for benching Simms. What could have been during those years if not for Ray Handley?
Agreed!

Bill Parcells is dead to me...
I loved him when he coached the Giants, but was not a fan of the way he left. I could have forgiven him for the Pats, but then his ego snowballed out of control. When he went to Dallas it was all over. That was the unforgivable sin.
He’s not even a good person. He screwed the Giants, Screwed the Bucs – twice if the rumors are true. I love that the last thing he did was leave the Dolphins in shambles. It was like someone threw the covers back and pulled out the black light to illuminate his career. It revealed to the football world just how sleazy and slimy he is/was. There wasn’t a stop in his career that he didn’t leave a mess behind.

A Vote for Tom Coughlin
Best Giants coach ever. Took a decimated defense and an offense with many question marks, infused cohesiveness and confidence in a team and has them playing terrific football in all facets. Gets the most out of his talent and, contrary to rumors, cares about his players deeply. Knows when to be tough and when to be soft.
Very loyal, which sometimes hurts the team, but shows he appreciates the hard work done by those who work for and with him. He is not a chameleon, as was Parcells at times, and is the heart and soul of what Giants football is all about. It is not his fault that it is not always evident on the field.
If you want more: He has been able to work with his players and significantly reduce their mistakes, be it fumbling the ball or Eli’s tendency toward bad reads. TC is a HOF coach, IMO.

Can't disagree with this...
If you put all the HCs in a lineup and asked somebody to pick which one is a coach..It would be Tom Coughlin..The Jags fell apart when he left..and our Giants rose up from the grave..
