'Kudos & Wet Willies,' Going To Indianapolis Edition

The New York Giants are in the 2012 Super Bowl! No one would have believed that to be possible a few weeks ago, but here they are. As we always do, let's review Sunday's dramatic 20-17 NFC Championship Game victory over the San Francisco 49ers 'Kudos & Wet Willies' style.
Kudos To ...
Devin Thomas: San Francisco punt returner Kyle Williams made two critical mistakes, and it was the hustling, alert Thomas who capitalized both times. The first time it took a Tom Coughlin challenge to rule that a bouncing Steve Weatherford punt had, indeed, glanced off Williams' knee. Thomas scooped it up, leading to a fourth-quarter touchdown that gave the Giants a 17-14 lead. In overtime, Thomas fought his way downfield and fell on Williams' fumble, setting up the game-winning field goal.
Eli Manning: The great Giants quarterback went 32-for-58 for 316 yards and two touchdowns. Probably most importantly, no interceptions, although a couple of his throws could have been picked off. Manning took a savage beating from the 49ers, being sacked six times and drilled countless other times. He kept standing in the pocket and giving the Giants opportunities, though. If you want to argue that Manning is a) not a great quarterback or b) not the best quarterback in franchise history your credibility is automatically shot.
Jacquian Williams: The rookie linebacker began the play that ultimately gave the Giants their Super Bowl opportunity, stripping the ball from Kyle Williams of San Francisco on that fateful overtime punt return.
Tom Coughlin: The Giants are in the Super Bowl for the second time under his stewardship, a place no one thought they could be just a few weeks ago. Coughlin's resolve and his belief in his team is a big part of the reason why.
Related: Grades From SI.com
Steve Weatherford: The Giants punter outkicked had a great day, neutralizing the advantage the 49ers seemed to have entering the game with All-Pro punter Andy Lee. Weatherford punted 12 times for an average of 46.4 yards per punt and a net average of 40.6 yards. He dropped two punts inside the 20-yard line and his long for the day was a 57-yarder. Oh, and a great post-game celebration from Weatherford, too.
Lawrence Tynes: A field goal to send the Giants to the Super Bowl. You want to think a 31-yarder is a chip shot in that situation, but if you watched Billy Cundiff botch a 32-yarder at the end of the Baltimore Ravens loss to the New England Patriots you know better. Tynes can make you shake your head sometimes, but he has always come through for the Giants when it has counted most.
Victor Cruz: What is there to say? The young man just keeps getting open and keeps making plays. Ten catches for 142 yards, including a 36-yarder to set up a touchdown. Here is something I can say. Thank you, Steve Smith, for going to Philadelphia and getting out of Cruz's way. You never would have thought so at the time, but Smith bolting for the Eagles is the best thing that could have happened for the Giants. So, 'kudos' to him, too.
Hakeem Nicks and Mario Manningham: Five catches and 55 yards for Nicks, who was overshadowed by Cruz but was also important. Manningham made just one catch, but it was a beautiful and important one, a 17-yard touchdown in the fourth quarter.
Ahmad Bradshaw: Not impressive numbers running (74 yards on 20 carries), but Bradshaw fought for and earned every inch of those 74 yards. He also caught six passes for 52 yards.
The Defensive Line: Really impossible to single out individuals. Jason Pierre-Paul was his usual presence. Justin Tuck made some plays, wounded shoulder and all. Osi Umenyiora made his presence felt. Mathias Kiwanuka got in on a sack while lined up as a defensive tackle. The Giants didn't exactly stop the San Francisco running game (150 yards, 5.4 per carry), but they didn't get killed by it, either. In the second half they turned up the pressure on 49ers quarterback Alex Smith, as well.
Travis Beckum and Bear Pascoe: A Beckum sighting! In the NFC Championship Game! Wow! Beckum had a career-best four catches. Granted, he had only 16 yards receiving, but his play helped the Giants offense. Pascoe scored the first touchdown of his NFL career on a six-yard reception from Manning. To win titles it takes contributions from the entire roster, and these two are another example of that.
Wet Willies To ...
Even though I am in a great mood today (why shouldn't I be?) I can still find a couple of 'Wet Willies' to hand out.
The Giants Offensive Line: Yes, the San Francisco front seven on defense is outstanding. And yes, the Giants are in the Super Bowl. The Giants, though, have serious long-term issues to address on their offensive line. That group nearly got Manning killed on Sunday. He was sacked six times and hit probably a dozen more. Without his ability to move deftly in the pocket he could have been sacked twice as many times. As we have seen so many times this season, there was rarely anywhere for Giants running backs to go, except to the ground. I'm not even going to bother going over the personnel issues. I don't want to ruin my good mood.
The Giants Secondary: This group had one job on Sunday -- do not give up big plays to San Francisco tight end Vernon Davis. Surrendering a 73-yard touchdown thanks to a mistake by Antrel Rolle and a 28-yard touchdown on a miscommunication between Kenny Phillips and Corey Webster was not what the Giants had in mind. I don't even want to think about the two or three deep throws Smith missed when he had receivers run past the Giants secondary, either.

Nope
However, I don’t think it would have come down to Smith OR Cruz
Smith would’ve started on PUP, and by the time he would have been able to come off, Cruz had already cemented his position on the team. The Giants would have just had a receiving corp of Nicks, Cruz, ’Rio, Smith… which would be filthy, and easily the best in the league in ANY circumstance.
Kind of...We could be waking up to a Superbowl victory.

Needs to stop trying to run around people
Got the throw in the flat, should have run over the defender. He got some yardage, but he need to be tougher.

His size? Needs to run OVER people. Trying to dance like Barry Sanders is just stupid, and leads to the opposing D being able to stop him with shoestring tackles.
A 260 pound back is not going to run over a 300+ pound unblocked D Tackle.

I'm honestly still done with Jacobs.
Said it earlier this season, and I’m sticking to it. He runs like a Prius, when he should be running like an F-350. For what he’s getting paid, that’s unacceptable.

I didn't think so
On the replays it looked to me that when his knee came down, the ball was well short. His arm and the ball eventually came down over the first down marker, but his knee had already been down, and the play dead, by then – kind of like Brady’s first QB sneak attempt in the Pats-Ravens game. It looked like a good spot to me.
by dontstopbelieving on Jan 23, 2012 9:46 AM EST up reply actions
Agreed,
the guys above are looking at where he landed. If you look where the ball was when his knee touched, he was barely back to the original LOS. They got that spot right.

It was really close and he got a $h!t @$$ spot
But in that spot in this kind of game, he needed to lower his shoulder on that last step and lunge for the first, lock it up
Every first down was big yesterday
Eli is our King!
AB was killing me yesterday
was it just me, or did he seem to run next to where the huge hole was…
2 and 1 all he has to do is put his shoulders in snees back and he gets the first… but no, he does his best BJake impression!! WTF>??
Regardless of what happens, No playoffs, playoffs, no superblow, superblow.... The 2011/2012 is one of my favorite Giants Teams of all time.
He looked slow as molasses.
Especially in comparison to Gore. That’s what I noticed.
The truth. The REAL voice of reason
Too Bulked Up
Bradshaw must be 20 lbs. heavier than he was 4 years ago – much better holding onto the ball, and great at pass protection, but he’s gotten extremely bulky. Nowhere near as nimble and fast as he was.
by Pink Flamingo on Jan 23, 2012 12:47 PM EST up reply actions
I think he's just as fast as ever..I'd like him to stay right where he's at..
"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..."

Next jersey purchase odds:
JPP - 70%
Kiwi - 20%
KP - 10%
I know our OL is our #1 in the draft....
but Running back to replace BJ is #2 or 3 on the list.
1 ok game out of 12 is not enough to stick around. Go be the largest ballerina for someone else. We need another running back mis-size to handle the duties AB can’t. Ware is not really the solution and scott is somewhere back in the doghouse.
I’ve been a huge Jacobs fan, but he’s lost any burst he ever had. If he meets a defender before he has three steps to pick up steam, he’s got nothing. The one thing I’d say in his defense, is that they just don’t utilize him very well. He seldom gets more that 7 or 8 touches a game. If you look at the games where Bradshaw was out, BJ produced.
Yeah that was bad.
Never got back in after that really.

How is he supposed to run through unblocked D Linemen? Our O line was terrible yesterday. Pretty much every yard Bradshaw got was from running away from where he was supposed to go since they didn’t block anyone.
by Midnight Blue on Jan 23, 2012 10:52 AM EST up reply actions
and Kudos to Gilbride
for adjusting what runs we would use.
The second half was alot of delayed starts for Bradshaw so the he could look and pick a hole, rather than just slam into the Oline where the quick run was intended to go.
You down wit JPP?
I got 99 problems but a Vick ain't one!
I want to hear the explanation
about the Delay of Game on the FG attempt. What the hell happened there?

On the flipside
At least we didn’t rush to get the kick off like Baltimore did. Should’ve taken the time out, but in that sitution, better to lose the 5 yards than to rush the kick.

Better to take the delay of game than icing the kicker.
This is not the 2007 team.
2011 NYG will have their own legacy.
What I've noticed
There is no rhyme or reason to how they start that play clock
Seemed to me like it got started before they even spotted the ball. That kind of play happens way too often, in all games. Even TC was caught.
Eli is our King!
Eli wasn't
He knew what was up
"Sometimes you make a mistake and you get hit in the head." - Eli Manning
Crunked and Swagged out since 2011
Play Clock
Time between plays will be 40 seconds from the end of a given play until the snap of the ball for the next play, or a 25-second interval after certain administrative stoppages and game delays.
Jacobs to Eli: You're a beast, man. I can't say that enough!
Yup
But at times you expect 40 and get 25
It’s a problem
Eli is our King!
My Thoughts
I think they expected to get “iced” and weren’t rushing because of that. Was the impression/reaction gave to me.
Totally agree
Seemed like they were waiting for Harbaugh to call time out. My new quote…“Let go and let Eli.”
The shouldn't have waited for the niners to try and "ice" em.
Run the play, kick the ball. If the niners call the timeout then they call the timeout. You’ll just kick the ball again. Tynes is not the guy to get “iced”.
I thought the ball was snapped in time...
anyone have a replay of that to watch right now online?

No, it was def delay of game

Eli was in Coughlin’s ear telling him the clock was about to expire, and Coughlin was in another world.

Yeah, why no Kudos for Chase
They guy was about to become a middle-school math teacher, and he winds up starting in the NFC title game and leads the team in tackles and clutch pass coverage. He has solidified the LB corps on a veteran’s minimum pay.
by Maryland Fan on Jan 23, 2012 9:28 AM EST up reply actions
Blackburn's been a key part of the D's resurgence
Always seems to be around the ball when a big play is happening
I distinctly remember
on one play (that either went as a sack or an incomplete pass) how much depth he got in pass coverage completely taking away Davis down the seem. It looked like Smith was keyed on Davis but had no where to throw it.
It’s those little things that really makes the difference.

When Goff comes back and Chase is released Im sure Chase will have a bag already packed.
Hopefully Goff will stay healthy next year. but Chase knows he will always be the go to guy if we need.
Some you missed
Kudos to Weatherford on the hold. Placed a bad snap.
Big plays to Vernon Davis? Ask Fewell why there was no deep safety on either. Every time KP was on the LOS, they threw the ball. SF was not stupid.
SF has a great front 7. All of them blitzed. Gilbride having the WRs run 20 yard routes when 7 are rushing is not the OL’s fault. ELi had to hold the ball because the routes were so poor.
Kudos to Ed Hochuli. Made every call correctly.
Kudos to the secondary for shutting down the WRs when mostly faced with no help.

And on Hoculi
he explained the decisions
that was severely lacking from the GB game.
Would not have agreed with Leavey on the fumble BS but if he explained, then maybe the conspiracy stuff would have been minimal

one mistake in how many years
everyone is allowed to mess up. they are human. and Ed’s call was a human error, a “oh crap, I messed up, oh crap, I cant fix this mistake, oh crap I am sorry” mistake. Took a lot to come out and admit his mistake the next day.
I like Ed, much rather have him than the crews we experience this year. The “Its not a fumble because if it was, I am out $20,000” crews

I think it is gonna be (not to be offensive) the black refs crew.
They are really solid as well.
I like the way he enunciates his calls and makes rally decisive moves with his hands for the team the penalty is against.
Hoculi and the other crew on the AFC Champ game CANNOT by rule(I believe) do the SB

yeah their receivers suck.
On the radio this morning a host cracked “my shirt is dirtier than Crabtree’s at the end of that game.”
The truth. The REAL voice of reason
+1
SF has a great front 7. All of them blitzed. Gilbride having the WRs run 20 yard routes when 7 are rushing is not the OL’s fault. ELi had to hold the ball because the routes were so poor.
his play calling in obvious blitz situations was terrible.
Jacobs to Eli: You're a beast, man. I can't say that enough!
I was saying the same thing during the game
Earlier in the game they were running a lot of quick routes, hitting the slants, etc. They got away from that and kept looking to make plays downfield. ’Twas stupid.
on point 2
the gameplan was similar to what they broke out against the Jets.
Difference is Smith can expose you over the top where Sanchez couldn’t. Good work by Radio to keep it under control all game long though.

Cruz had catches when he ran short routes
Gilbride had him running deep routes the second half with the other WRs. The majority of Cruz’s catches, the ball was out of Eli’s hand in 5 seconds.

Gilbride didnt do any thing of the sort
His option routes are predicated on the defense and what Eli and him read.

Then they should read "Route options when 6-7 guys are blitzing"
It’s a good book. First chapter “Why the QB needs to get rid of the ball quickly when an all-out blitz is coming”.

Bad most of the year too.
Unlike the 2007 team, which had a stealth fantastic offensive line and therefore helps explain how they were able to make the run to the championship looking back on it, I may never be able to figure out how this team is managing to do it.
This may be one of those times where the conventional thinking that the QB deserves a huge percentage of the credit is actually right. I just hope Eli got to sleep on a nice soft bed last night.
I'm sure they got the horse liniment out for Eli on the plane
I liked Tuck’s comment about Eli’s build being “dorky” but he is tough as they come
That is true
But we haven’t had a good push for a rushing attack practically at all this year.
I think OL will be the major focus here, like Safeties after 09, and defensive linemen in 08.

I bet its the calls
Baas at this point is better at them than Boothe. Which is understandable because Boothe spends his time learning all the posistions.

in the pass game. Although Gronk maybe slowed down, he rolled that ankle pretty bad.
But Belichek does not have the horses to do that
his secondary will get absolutely torched by Eli.
It is better to be silent and be thought a fool, then to open your mouth and remove all doubt.
He does, but one key thing
it’s more speed that kills us than power… WIllis, McDonald, Smiths, beat us with speed. We do better against bigger, slower packs.
Who doesnt?

Aldon Smith overwhelmed guys with his quickness, McDonald did too. But how many times Did we see McKenzie fail to make contact with the Outside pass rusher?
Then the other guys like Justin Smith and company got in it, feasting on Eli just trying to stay alive

What scares me is the Patriots defense played their best game of the year...
They are the reason they won….
"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..."
Meh. They played their best game of the season
And they still almost lost twice to a mediocre Ravens offense.

I would say Bradshaw's numbers are fairly impressive
Considering he was almost at 4 YPC going up against the best run D any team has had for a long time
Eli Manning is the opposite of Lebron James. If you ask Lebron for change for a dollar, he only gives you 75c because he doesnt have a fourth quarter. When Eli asks for change, he only takes one quarter because thats all he's gonna need.

Kwillie to the O-line.
After halftime that 49er’s front 7 become monstrous. I am not sure if any O-line could have protected Eli that well.
It was sick watching them and damn scary.
I swear they just juiced up in the locker room and went incredible hulk because it was a 180 for those guys.

They blitzed more in the second half
And we were running longer routes, so Eli had to hold the ball longer. That’s how Ballard wound up with 0 catches.

Completely agree
I wonder why Gilbride didn’t call those plays. I think he wanted to beat them long really bad because the 49ers secondary isn’t amazing enough to beat all of our receivers. The front 7 saved the 49ers butts.

He made a few big catches after getting hurt
SF defense decided to challenge us to beat them deep, according to some guys that were there from ESPN, the TV coverage failed to convey the horrible winds, huge gusts
That might explain why some guys open deep that Eli usually cashes in, dropped incomplete. But they had pretty tight coverage, a guy jumps that WR screen, it’s a pick six

Kudos to luck being on our side
I hate that some people use luck as a reason to discredit this teams accomplishments so now saying a team was lucky = the team didn’t deserve to win.
For any team to make a superbowl they need a lot of things to happen in their favor. Pats needed a kicker to shank a relatively easy field goal, we were fortunate to have fumbles bounce in such a way that our players were able to recover it.
It just bothers me when other fan bases say “well you just got lucky” when luck is a part of every football game

once again.
fumble recoveries are preparation meets opportunity.
Regardless of what happens, No playoffs, playoffs, no superblow, superblow.... The 2011/2012 is one of my favorite Giants Teams of all time.
nope
Recovery of a fumble, despite being the product of hard work, is almost entirely random.
Stripping the ball is a skill. Holding onto the ball is a skill. Pouncing on the ball as it is bouncing all over the place is not a skill. There is no correlation whatsoever between the percentage of fumbles recovered by a team in one year and the percentage they recover in the next year. The odds of recovery are based solely on the type of play involved, not the teams or any of their players.
Fans like to insist that specific coaches can teach their teams to recover more fumbles by swarming to the ball. Chicago’s Lovie Smith, in particular, is supposed to have this ability. However, since Smith took over the Bears, their rate of fumble recovery on defense went from a league-best 76 percent to a league-worst 33 percent in 2005, then back to 67 percent in 2006. Last year, they recovered 57 percent of fumbles, close to the league average.
Fumble recovery is equally erratic on offense. In 2008, the Bears fumbled 12 times on offense and recovered only three of them. In 2009, the Bears fumbled 18 times on offense, but recovered 13 of them.
Fumble recovery is a major reason why the general public overestimates or underestimates certain teams. Fumbles are huge, turning-point plays that dramatically impact wins and losses in the past, while fumble recovery percentage says absolutely nothing about a team’s chances of winning games in the future. With this in mind, Football Outsiders stats treat all fumbles as equal, penalizing them based on the likelihood of each type of fumble (run, pass, sack, etc.) being recovered by the defense.
Other plays that qualify as “non-predictive events” include blocked kicks and touchdowns during turnover returns. These plays are not “lucky,” per se, but they have no value whatsoever for predicting future performance.
Anyone still pining for Barden?
Devin Thomas is playing like a man possessed at the gunner position and gives it his all on every punt. Gotta love the role player contributions from this former high draft pick who has swallowed more than just his pride in become more a ST specialist…

I also dig the rookies on coverage teams: Paysinger, J Williams, Jones, Sash who along with the special team standout Devin Thomas have improved all year and in this game earned the Giants some much needed breaks.

Spot on Ed
The kudos and WW are deserved.
I thought Beckum was gone for sure at the end of this season but now, maybe, just maybe, he stays. I still think Sir Ballardhad and the Bear are ahead of him. Hope Ballard has the time to heal so he is really able to play against NE. We need it.
Kudos to theformerSteveSmith and Kevin Boss for leaving. Do they feel dumb now?
Even Fewell’s decisions seemed good. No three man rushes thanks.
But still some D miscommunication, you could see them gesturing constantly. That should not be happening with vets who have been playing together. And jumping a route on a fast TE? Brilliant.
DD and KM are history I hope. We won but Eli was constantly under pressure, it was absurd how these two were manhandled. Save Eli’s life, make a change.
Finally, I hope that Rexxy, the cow girls and Iggles finally shut up. Results matter, bloviating is just gas escaping.
I would think Devin Thomas has a good chance at staying with the team after last night.
Interesting that Barden has not been seen. He may be inactive but that is telling. Not sure that he makes it. Seems to me he has done OK when in but the coaches clearly are not confident in him.
Also BJ did not get that much time. That was a bit of a surprise for me.
I think we can beat NE if we perform near our best. We did it already and their secondary is not ready for a healthy VC/HN/MM plus Ballard.
My only concern is Wilfork. We have to move the pocket and work around him. I do not believe our OL will handle him well.
All the Giants should play like Mark Bavaro.
TQ, DD and KMac Must Go!
TC, PF, KG, will stay but should go for the long term good.
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.

Wet Willie to Killdrive
To Kevin Gilbride! He was channeling his inner Brian Shottenheimer and had Manning throw the ball almost 60 times!! And on top of that, he was constantly going for the long ball. So, no, I don’t fault the O-line for Eli’s troubles. It was horrible play calling. How do you only dump off to Hynoski and let him rumble for 9/10 yards on two occasions? Where were the short 5 yard passes? If you want high numbers of throws, stick to short effective gains and then go for the long ball every so often to keep them honest. Fortunately, SF doesn’t have a great offense and our defense seemed intent on keeping us in the game.
meh
They stuck with the run but passing was the only way to move the ball. Shotgun formation was the only way to get time for routes.

I see this as the major upgrade that needs to be done
If they rush 7, the ball needs to come out immediately. Backshoulder to Nicks. REAL screen passes. The second half, all the WRs were running deep every play, right at the safeties.
Beckum is fast. He needs to be thrown the ball running towards the sidelines, not running towards the middle and Patrick Willis.

The Niner D was phenomenal
I don’t think you can put this on KG. The run game was getting absolutely nowhere, and especially when they were playing from behind, they couldn’t just pound the ball for balance’s sake – their best players are Manning, Nicks, and Cruz, and they had to be given a chance to make plays. Plus, even when they were doing dumpoffs, I was amazed at how quickly the Niners closed in – I’d see Eli dump it off to Bradshaw and expect a 10-15 yard gain, and they just swallowed him up every time. Sometimes you just need to tip your cap to the defense.

I think he was just taking what he coud get
Although not mentioned all that much, I do think there was a decent wind making any deep throws an increased risk. The wet also made the passing game come back to earth, so alot of what we normally see was taken away for the most part.
They moved alright and ya have to give the 49ers alot of credit. only thing I had issue with was not shortening enough passing routes to take some pressure off of the line.

Booth's snaps were mighty low
Eli was great at picking them up, but they were not good. Whatever Baas’ flaws, he’s better at snapping.
With all due respect to our DBs...
…yes, they yielded two big plays, but — when the other team goes 1-for-13 on 3rd down (and the only one in garbage time right before the end of regulation, mind you), and the opponent completes only one pass to a WR for three yards, your DBs are doing something right.
It’s a kwillie for me. Take away the big plays, and we would be talking about an other worldly performance.

rolle and grant on the 1st one
CWeb was playing deep safety on the TD catch and was too late getting over… probably because he doesn’t know how to play safety and doesn’t have the timing down.
Was webster actually playing Safety on that one?
That… shouldn’t be happening that much anymore.
Agree on the first one.
Either Rolle is much slower than I thought or Davis is just FAST

Rolle and Grant got BBQ'd on the first
underestimated how fast Davis is
the second one. OF COURSE THEY ARE HAVING COMMUNICATION ISSUES!!! WEBBY ENDED UP PLAYING SAFETY AND KP WAS PLAYING CORNER… PERRY YOU FOOL!!!! STOP WITH THE ELEGANT STUFF!!!!
Regardless of what happens, No playoffs, playoffs, no superblow, superblow.... The 2011/2012 is one of my favorite Giants Teams of all time.
that's what I was thinking...
but on the 2nd watch it looked like Webster was in man as well
i can’t call it for sure
Fire Fewell
He was
but that begs the question.. Why are you singling the best offensive player the 9ers have with a safety?!? and then playing that safety in a man press, trail technique??
Regardless of what happens, No playoffs, playoffs, no superblow, superblow.... The 2011/2012 is one of my favorite Giants Teams of all time.

Vernon Davis being Davis
was the first throw, If anyone was paying attention to Davis that second time, it should have been a pick.

JMHO - CWEB shoulda been on Davis, or Ross on Davis
And let a different guy cover Crabtree. Too many plays Webby chasing a decoy

Webby and Ross would have gotten used in the slot
Thats why they werent on him, If VD would have lined up outside then maybe Webby would have been on him but to kick him inside would have worked to their favor.

You're right it isn't clear
Cept Webbie seems to be the only guy out of step, so I’d call it his mistake
THAT said, he was there maybe half a step late and Smith makes a very nice throw over Phillips and on time. So I’d say you’ve got to give the Niners credit.

Fewell was being creative
Needs to stop that. Just put a safety over the top of Davis every play and forget about trying to confuse the offense.

webster was running stride for stride w/ #10
and I’m not even sure what the play call was, so i’m not sure how we can just assume Webster was the safety help.
Looked like man to me and Webster just peels off his man when he knows the ball is going to Davis.
Fire Fewell
Yeah that's what I thought too
If he was actually the deep safety, I think he’d get their a step sooner. Maybe not soon enough to force it incomplete, but closer

Know the coverage and the system
Regardless of how we’ve mangled the Tampa 2 system, we are supposed to be preventing big plays. And when the safety coverage is 1-deep, you have to be even more careful. If our CBs are jumping routes against Brady with no safety help, we will be in trouble.

Poor coverage design
1-deep with Grant on the 1st one, although Rolle did a poor job. And he is apparently as slow as Grant.
On the second, KP was on the LOS with no safety behind him. Poor design. Webster was at CB but dropped back into deep zone.

I really thought Rolle injured himself on that 1st one

But then later in the game he was going stride for stride with Davis, so I really just think he misplayed it at the line and got stuck in the mud.

I hope Bernard did not hurt himself pulling that fake stunt.
There was a hold I think on Tolly on one of the first Smith runs. He was grabbed and spun around. So blatant, right when Smith passed him. I could not believe there was no call.
All the Giants should play like Mark Bavaro.

I maintained pre game that the weather never really helps one squad in a way you can predict

9ers are a really fast defense
see how many times AB hit the edge for what should have been a 5-10 yard gain only to get 2.
Thats why.
Regardless of what happens, No playoffs, playoffs, no superblow, superblow.... The 2011/2012 is one of my favorite Giants Teams of all time.
So pissed at the Vernon Davis touchdowns.....
He is the main offensive threat. how the hell you have this guy running around freely. We should have one or two guys assigned to him at ALL time. Shut him down and we win easily. Didn’t have to worry about Crabtree, sports analysts are saying he had the cleanest jersey after the game.
They had a good plan for him but he came to ball, simple as that
But the execution was also poor.

Can you believe Eli's "passer rating" was something like an 82?
Sometimes, stats just lie.
Hey 85, forget the passer rating
The only numbers that matter are the numbers on the scoreboard. We did good in that stat.

Regardless of how good a defense the 49ers have they flat out stunk…We really dodged a bullet and all the credit goes to Eli..

Agreed – just speculation, but I wonder if any of them may have come down with what Baas and Eli had…they just had no strength all day. You never know what’s going on behind the scenes – who knew the flu had been going around the locker room before the GB game in ’07?

I thought Gilbride called a rather poor game actually...
and on the flip side, Jim Harbaugh knows how to squeeze every single ounce outta his offense.
it’s remarkable IMO that his WRs had 1 catch and they were in the game every step of the way.
the entire world knows V. Davis is their threat, yet he still gets the match ups he wants.

Considering the horrible conditions, i think the play calling was damn good and to have no T.O.'s was even better

Seemed to me like their offense was closeted
They tried to throw to Davis, or way short of what was needed. 1-13 on third downs isn’t really a ringing endorsement of the offensive game plan. But our D was superb most of the day.
Eli is our King!
Surprised the Niners
didn’t stick with the run more. Gore was getting 4-5 yards a pop right up the gut. The interior line was getting blown off the ball a lot.
Bottom line the D played well – but I didn’t see a lot of emotion or intensity on our side – not sure why. I think they knew they were in it for the long haul and were staying focused rather than blowing their energy getting all pumped up between plays.

Coaching.
This was a business trip and it was taken and treated as such and correctly done so.
Even Coughlin did not go up or down much.
Harbaugh, a very good coach, was all over the road.
Those things trickled down like honey thru a sieve.

Kickoffs
Is it just me, or were almost all of Akers’ kickoffs through the endzone, but Tynes kicked everything short?
I thought this was hurting us, giving up some good field position more than once. Was this strategy, or is he just not able to boot it far enough in the rain?
That was driving me nuts, too.
I’d understand if it was affecting both kickers.

Tossing Justin Smith like a ragdoll the one play he came on to block. IIRC it was a pretty important 3rd and short. Maybe even a 4th.

but doesnt count cause he was playing offense.

NFC Coference Champions The NY Football Giants!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Why is Tom Quinn still here? I loves me some Coach Clawfin.
Is it just me
or did Osi make a weak attempt to recover the fumble on the end around?
He did have a guy draped over his back pulling his arm.
And it wasn’t like he was expecting it. I give him a pass on any fault for that play.
No that dread lock beast who rolled his ankle for the Niner's made a nice play to strip
Sack the strip sack king!

Not weak at all
He’s probably as mad as I am that he didn’t get that recovery

I love it.
Since both Eli and Jeter has been my guys since day one of their careers.
The truth. The REAL voice of reason
Bit off topic but how is it
that we are lucky in this win?
Did not we play in the same game, with the same at stake in the same weather….in THEIR house?
Look, it was said before….they had the fewest TO’s for a season at 10, tied with NE 2010.
They led the league in TO margin(tied with GB actually)
Here’s my thought…..you did not execute to your game plan.
Simple.
We knew that you would be able to run on us and we could not run on you that well.
We knew that Eli was better than Smith and we were going to make you prove otherwise.
We knew we had to win the TO battle.
You knew you had to stop our WR’s and get after Eli to win.
I don’t see the luck in that game plan on either side.
It is better to be silent and be thought a fool, then to open your mouth and remove all doubt.
Peyton has, and will have the sexier numbers
Like ARod. Peyton has the 50 TD’s in a season, the 40,000 yards, the 13 wins a year, the ridiculous QB rating.
ARod has the 600 home runs, the 40,000 RBI’s, the .650 slugging %
Jeter has the post season success, the countless moments like the home run against ARZ, the catch and flip against OAK, the clutchness. Eli, like Jeter, has those numbers and moments that transcend individual greatness. Eli has 5 road playoff wins, most TD passes in the fourth quarter in NFL history, Catch 42, winning on the road in frigid GB, @ rainy SF against the leagues best defense.
I love the comparison and it would actually make a sick Fanpost, IMO
The truth. The REAL voice of reason

the difference being
that eventually a-rod played on a stacked yankees team, whereas Peyton was apparently playing on an awful colts team the whole time.

Gilbride deserves a kwillie
why those HB outside screens are still in the playbook I have no idea. He needs to have that part of his brain removed.

Agreed
Or, if he’s going to run them, at least set up some blocking out front of theHB, like every other team does.

I always give Gilbride credit so you're barking up the wrong tree here.

Something interesting to chart
Distance screen pass travels through air vs. distance player runs with football. We’re always getting caught from behind because we’re catching the ball too close to the defensive players.

"Third Quarter Trough"
KG seems to go into a shell in the 3rd quarter for some reason – it’s a pattern that we’ve seen over and over. We were moving the ball easily in the first half, but then a drop in energy and focus to start the second half…odd play calls…then in the 4th quarter we re-emerge. I was surprised the Niners shut us down so badly in the 2nd half considering we were getting a lot of yardage in the first half.

And I dunno about the secondary deserving a wet willie
The Vernon Davis plays were about as flukey as the two fumlbes. Other then those two plays the Giants secondary was playing in all out beast mode. And if we’re gonna reference the “ifs” about teh Niners players running by the Giants secondary but not getting the ball, what about the plays where Manningham burnt the Niners secondary but the ball took off on Eli or the deep Bradshaw throw at the end that could’ve went for 6 if Eli threw it out there farther?

Very similar to the GB game in that you saw Smith running alot. Although a couple of his runs were called, the coverage outside of those plays was good all night
by Jimmy Orange on Jan 23, 2012 1:02 PM EST up reply actions
Not hating on the secondary.
We got outcoached, not outplayed on those two Vernon TDs. It’s like when Mariano Rivera throws a good fastball and the hitter guesses “fastball,” closes his eyes, and swings. You tip your cap and move on. Those plays didn’t worry me nearly as much as Gore’s running.
New England’s d is nothing to sneeze at. They will play us tough – but not as tough as the team we just beat. Good lord those guys are beasts.
New England’s “o” is scary as hell…but not if they don’t get on the field.
We play Giants football, we win. It’s that simple.
11/1/2010
After the gauntlet we just wen through the past two weeks, I couldn't care less who we're facing
for as “well” as the Pats D played yesterday, it was still against the Ravens. They even found a way to shut down Ray Rice relatively, but Flacco still played well. Flacco is NOT Elisha Nelson Manning, and the Ravens don’t have one receiver that would play on the Giants (or at least they wouldn’t given their play in B-More, if Eli was throwing to them they probably look a lot better).

Congratulations from a Colts fan!
And a Bay Area resident with a long-dormant dislike of the 49ers (awakened this year as they started doing well, lol). I read from the above that Baas was put back in the game… any idea of the likelihood he’ll play in the Super Bowl? The low snaps from his replacement were a bit disconcerting, terrible conditions notwithstanding.
Thoughts?
P.S. I will be rooting for a third ring for the Manning family, even if it invites even more controversy of which Manning is better!
How can you not love a team who does this?
Read great Colts analysis on Colts Authority and follow me on Twitter
Baas came back into the game
so barring some setbacks, I’d assume he’s playing on Superbowl Sunday

Don't take any of the Peyton vs. Eli stuff to heart.
I wouldn’t give Eli up for anyone, but I know Peyton’s better no matter what happens in the Bowl.
As for Baas, he really shouldn’t be the C anymore. Boothe might have low snaps, mostly due to the gravitational pull from his ass, but he’s a much, much better blocker especially in the run game. You don’t push him back and I’d much rather he be in there against Mt. Wilfork.

O-LINE PLAY
For thise who say our o line sucked. Well…i guess friscos oline sucked too. Because they bith allowed the same percentage of hits on the quarterback. Almost identical.
We hit alex smith 6 times….they hit eli 12
But smith only attemoted 26 passes while eli threw 58. Pretty good job id say…to drop back at least 58 times (do sacks add as a pass attemp?) And only get hit 12 times is very good against a strong defense.

"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..."
Box scores don't count hits on your QB, if the play succeeds..
For example, that throw to AB..Eli got his ass handed to him..There were several others the whole game..Box scores don’t record that stuff..You have to watch the game to see your QB getting his butt hit..There’s no such thing in a Box score..
"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..."
I just checked to see if perhaps the box score counts how many times your QB
Got hit..Thought maybe they added that statistic and I was missing something…They don’t…
"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..."

That is so classic
All the way to a Super Bowl victory like a knife through butter
JPP Is hands down the best DE in the NFL right now
Can't spell Elite without ELI
Jerry Reese for President 2012..let's make that happen!
We'd better find a way to have a semblance of a run game against them, or they are going to pin their ears back and rush.
Jacobs and the o line need to pull their heads out of their asses and actually block and run. I still say Baas is a bust, but if he wants to prove me wrong, he’d better have a game against Wilfork. I’d rather see Boothe in there to help the run game.
yea...bass needs to prove to me why hes here too

Wilfork can push the pocket but Eli is not Joe Flacco, he knows where he is. So who else are they gonna rush? Andre Carter? Brandon Spikes? Does Eli’s Citizen Eco Drive have a stopwatch?

If Eli can make it through the 49er and win the game yesterday this next one should not be bad.
This is not the 2007 team.
2011 NYG will have their own legacy.
I agree about Baas..He's not been what we had hoped for...
But if Wilfork is all they have..then they are in deep yogurt..As far as the running game goes..Brandon and AB need our line to create holes to run through..BJ doesn’t get dangerous until he gets through the D-line..Can’t expect the guy to be effective without a damn block..
"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..."
On the other side how do we handle Brady's no huddle?
This is not the 2007 team.
2011 NYG will have their own legacy.
same way we did last time
tell the line to keep their hands up and have Kiwi, Boley and Jacquain on the field a lot. Reduce the number of windows he can quick throw to.
Back on our side, do they remember we didn’t even have Hakeem on the field last time?

"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..."
Well no huddle can be tough..but..
If you commit the right personnel on defense, you can overcome it..When you think about it the Ravens did a great job with it..IMO they should have won that game..We need to make sure we have Welker, Gronk, and Hernandez covered and pound Brady..He’s no Eli under pressure, he’ll succumb to pressure..I already have a good feeling about this re-match..I’m not ready to predict yet but I do see them facing a stronger Giants team than they did in ‘08..Our O-line has to play better..I’m very disappointed with how they played yesterday..Granted, the 49ers have a great defense but c’mon you have to protect your QB better than that..and open up a few holes for the running game…
