Carl Banks Talks Giants-49ers

Carl Banks spent some time talking New York Giants-San Francisco 49ers with a Sacramento radio station this week. He echoed Tom Coughlin's sentiment that the Giants are "a very dangerous football team."

Banks, the former great Giants linebacker who currently broadcasts games on WFAN with Bob Papa played in several big Giants-49ers games over the years, and said with the teams meeting on Sunday that "all is right with the world."

Banks said not making the playoffs would have been a "great disappointment" for the Giants because "it would have been a complete waste of talent."

Banks was asked what led to the Giants turnaround late this season, especially on defense.

"At a certain point good players are tired of being mediocre and doing stupid things. The other part of it is they got healthy, which helps. They also on the defensive side of the football started to get everyone on the same page.

"Whatever it is they are playing as a complete unit and its playing dividends."

Banks said the Giants are "very close" to what they were four years ago when they won the Super Bowl and opined that they will have to be Sunday against the 49ers.

"They're going to face a team that is so buttoned up and mentally tough. they're not going to make a lot of mistakes," Banks said. "They play a very disciplined brand of football."

had to be during the '86 run vs SF

Banks played one of the greatest games I’ve ever witnessed for a LB.

of course I don’t remember it b/c i was only 5 1/2 but I watched the game a few years back….wow.

all True said was that the Giants were out to revenge the hit on Hoss

b/c they said it themselves. Banks said it…and he said it was extra motivation b/c Burt was with the Giants previously.

they took it very personal. True wasn’t making that up, just pointed out how the Giants felt.

for the record....IMO Montana is the GOAT

and i think it’s a bit childish that people slight him for that hit (if they do) b/c if Marshall hit any one of us like that we’d prolly be fitted for a toe tag.

Montana was also one tough sob. the back surgeris and what not. he was a throw back.

by andiamo708 on Jan 19, 2012 4:58 PM EST up reply actions  

That's correct

Carl Banks has been pretty clear about it without coming out and saying they were head hunting. And to be clear, it was Burt the 49er whose hit was borderline. Marshall’s tackle was about the most textbook take I’ve ever seen. It was just clear he gave it everything he had.

Amen to that
Banks said not making the playoffs would have been a “great disappointment” for the Giants because “it would have been a complete waste of talent.”

It drives me crazy to read people say that Coughlin and Fewell are doing wonders in spite of the talent. They had no business letting the team get to 9-7 in the first place.

Injuries. That's what I blame along with the coaching for Fewell and Coughlin.

I do agree that we’ve seen the full extent of what this team can do these past few weeks, so you’d be correct in saying that coaching should bear the brunt of the responsibility for going 9-7.

No doubt though that not having depth at CB hurt. As did not having Osi and having a gimpy Tuck for most of the year. Marvin Austin would’ve been nice, and probably would have been in there for the downs where JPP was playing NT.

I just remembered seeing it whenever this episode aired. It’s just a conversion to a regular fridge, but the guy says he’d probably have to charge $1500 for them, so probably not enough demand to manufacture them. He should just sell the plans for a few bills, that would be the way to go.

Riddle me this, Giant fans.

Opening odds for the next year SuperBowl.

Super Bowl odds for 2013 in New Orleans: GB 5-1, NE 6-1, NO 8-1, Pit Phi Bal 12-1, Hou 15-1 Sd 15-1, SF NYG Dal NYJ Atl, Det 20-1

So my niners and your ny football Giants are at 20-1, when GB and NO are at 5-1 and 8-1.

Why?
