PFF Names All NFC East Team

A little something that isn't Super Bowl related for you to debate into the evening hours today. Pro Football Focus has released its All NFC East Team, and there are of course several New York Giants on it. I am just going to give you the entire PFF list, and let you guys tell me what you think.

Offense

Quarterback: Eli Manning, NYG
Running Back: Lesean McCoy, PHI
Tight End: Jason Witten, DAL
Wide Receivers: Hakeen Nicks and Victor Cruz, NYG and Dez Bryant, DAL
Tackles: Jason Peters, PHI and Tyron Smith, DAL
Guards: Evan Mathis, PHI and Chris Snee, NYG
Center: Will Montgomery, WAS

Defense

Defensive Ends: Jason Pierre-Paul, NYG and Trent Cole, PHI
Defensive Tackles: Jay Ratliff, DAL and Cullen Jenkins, PHI
Linebackers: Sean Lee and Demarcus Ware, DAL and London Fletcher, WAS
Cornerbacks: Asante Samuel, PHI and Josh Wilson, WAS
Safeties: Kenny Philips, NYG and Laron Landry, WAS

Special Teams

Kicker: Dan Bailey, DAL
Punter: Steve Weatherford, NYG
Returner: Brandon Banks, WAS
Special Teamer: Colt Anderson, PHI

Maybe the only Giant I might try to build a case for as a snub would be Corey Webster. Your thoughts, Giants fans?

First name I thought of

But over Sean Lee, Ware or Fletcher? Hard to make that case.

I agree

but who would he go over? Ware isn’t a LB in the sense the other 2 are but he’s gotta be there. it’s really close between Lee, Fletcher and Boley.

"Giants rely on fumbles and stripping the ball. If the pats secure the ball, then the pats win, but if they fumble or let the ball get striped than the giants win. every game the giants play they always benefit from the other teams bonehead mistakes (fumbled or striped) not from thier skills. The giants are a dirty team, I can’t think of any othe team as dirty as the giants. They try to strip the ball as hard as they can because they know they can’t win a fair game." by EaglesNeedD on Jan 23, 2012 2:01 AM EST

by Giant Ken on Jan 25, 2012 10:39 PM EST via mobile up reply actions  

he seemed pretty spectacular vs. Buffalo don't you think?

put his game vs. Stevie Johnson against what Revis did vs. Stevie Johnson.

they both gave up TDs at the goal line. But Stevie coulda iced it had he just caught that pass, and he ultimately had a better game vs. Revis even w/ that drop.

Offense is right on, D....?

Web should make it, but probably got hurt by all the blown coverages. i think PFF has the hardest time with rating secondary because unless you know what the coverage is supposed to be, hard to say who’s at fault when somebody runs free for a TD reception.

You can make a case for Boley, but it would require bumping Lee, who also had a great year.

Pretty good, all in all

by NorthwestFan on Jan 25, 2012 5:10 PM EST reply actions  

p.s. it's really a commentary on how week the safeties are in our division

that Phillips made it. For most of the year he was lining up in another zip code from the action. Didn’t seem very impactful to me, but i don’t get to see the “All 22” film either.

by NorthwestFan on Jan 25, 2012 5:12 PM EST reply actions  

Really?

This list seems pretty fair to me.

Other than CWeb being left off, of course. That’s an atrocity obviously.

by theIke on Jan 25, 2012 5:17 PM EST up reply actions  

From his description

It seems like the writer considers “nickleback” a completely separate position from “outside cornerback”. CWeb was almost never on the slot guy, so I guess that explains it…

That’s the only reason I could think of.

But JimmyK makes that ridiculous little jab at Eli about how he’s “not elite,” but he is better than Tony Romo. Thanks, JimmyK. We would’ve all doubted your commitment to honest journalism if you hadn’t made sure to make it clear that you don’t think Eli is elite.

sorry man

Bomar is neither old nor tired. Whenever individual praise is to be heaped upon NFL players there will inevitably be comparisons to this all time great behemoth of a man. As long as there is an NFL there will always be records kept of the greatest Giants never to play.

And his influence shall ring throughout the halls of the BBV forever! If this is your feeling toward Rhett, at least give us a retirement post so that we can all have our final moments with the man the myth the legend. The man that meant so much to so many, a leader of men, and just maybe the best punchline ever here at Big Blue View.

I disagree

The long wait between the NFC championship and the Superbowl has always been FAR more interesting when we are still talking about my team than in the years when we aren’t. Bring on more stories about Chris Canty’s Grandma. Bring on more stories about Victor Cruz’s favorite dance moves. Bring on more stories about the size of David Bass’s head. I don’t care. I love it all.

Who chose the cornerbacks, the Shitwit Bayless?

If i had my choice

it’d be Webster and Samuels

Asante doesn’t really like tackling, this is well documented but the guy plays “off” coverage probably better than most Corners in the EAST….granted that’s his strength, and yes, he does guess a lot and take chances, but he also gets the stats.

should he be above Webster…IMO, heck no.

but if this was my list he would be starting opposite Webster on the outside.
