Super Bowl 2012, Key Matchup: How Will Giants Cover New England Tight Ends?

How will the New York Giants try to handle the New England Patriots tremendous duo of tight ends, Rob Gronkowski and Aaron Hernandez, during the 2012 Super Bowl on Sunday in Indianapolis?
This is one of the biggest dilemmas facing Giants defensive coordinator Perry Fewell, and it will be very interesting to see how he chooses to try and accomplish it. More concerning to Giants fans isn't how the Giants get it done, but that they get it done.
Gronkowski had a record-setting season for New England as he caught 90 passes for 1,327 yards and a tight-end record of 17 touchdowns. His health has been a major topic all week as he showed up in Indianapolis wearing a walking boot on his injured left ankle. Gronkowski suffered what has been termed a high ankle sprain during the AFC Championship Game victory over the Baltimore Ravens.
Gronkowski was not wearing the walking boot during Tuesday's Media Day festivities, and said he is taking his recovery "day-by-day."
The Patriots also have Aaron Hernandez, who had 79 receptions for 910 yards and seven touchdowns during the regular season.
When the teams met earlier this season (a 24-20 New York victory) Gronkowski had his way with the Giants, hauling in eight catches for 101 yards and a touchdown, while Hernandez had four catches for 35 yards and a touchdown.
The Giants' options in trying to cover Gronkowski and Hernandez might be limited somewhat by the fact that rookie linebacker Jacquian Williams has been wearing a walking boot of his own, and his status for Sunday is unknown.
Undoubtedly, the Giants will use combinations of coverages involving their linebackers and safeties. They will hope mostly, however, that their pass rush negates the Patriots big-play passing attack. Maybe privately they will also hope that Gronkowski's ability to manuever downfield and get open is hampered by the ankle injury.
The Giants have struggled at times covering tight ends, and gave up a pair of long touchdowns to San Francisco's Vernon Davis in the NFC Championship Game. SI.com's Chris Burke took an in-depth look at the Giants' struggles in covering Davis, how the Patriots might try to exploit that, and what the Giants might do about it. It's a better X and O look at the matchup than anything I can do, and it offers a great look at the problems the Giants face.
It will be fascinating on Sunday to watch the chess match between the Giants defense and the Patriots offense when it comes to covering Gronkowski and Hernandez. If the Giants can limit the damage these two cause it becomes much more difficult for New England to create big plays in its passing game.

I'm most worried about Hernandez's speed
Vernon Davis burned our guys deep
Those VD plays
…felt like bad defensive calls more than Davis burning us deep. Sort of “close-your-eyes-guess-fastball” kinda things. But it would be helpful to have two guys on any TE more than 4 yards past the LOS, yes.
11/1/2010
Exactly
Giants were covering him man-to-man, single-coverage, with safeties. Dumb defensive calls and strategy by Fewell. Hope he learned something from that game. Although maybe if Gronk’s ankle is bad enough, they can get away with single-coverage on him and might be better off keeping an extra guy on Welker.

They weren't bad calls
Rolle admitted, DURING THE GAME, that it was his fault.

Yeah he did.
He told Fewell not to change a thing because it was on him and he wanted to make up for it.
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.

If Gronk can't practice until Friday and play
will Brady and he be in sync? I have no doubt he will play but how good is the question.
We can hope.
Especially if they have to speed up their routes and timing (like GB tried to do) to avoid the pass rush.

What happened to J' Williams?
Didn’t see him get hurt in S.F.
Fewell will be working on zone coverage of Gronk and Hernandez. We don’t have anyone who can cover them. That’s not a slam, few teams do.
Don't really know
Just know he’s been in a walking boot.

Zone underneath
Man deep. Have each safety shadow each TE. As soon as he declares where he is going.. Jump to Man coverage.
Have Ross Webby Prince take on Welker, 85, and Branch with a mix of man/zone press..
I know the Pats will have success against this Defense, they are in the superbowl for a reason. I just dont think they will be as successful against our Defense, as we are against theirs.

Flood the middle of the field and play man
on the outside receivers. Force them to beat us and make TB hold the ball another second to give the D line that much more opportunity to hit him. Have to have strong run defense to put them in a passing mode

Yeah..up the gut pressure..Brady hates that..

also, I believe we should have
Canty, Anvil, and Bernard in on every play. Regardless of what formation they are in. That trio is becoming so good, you almost put yourself at a disadvantage taking any of them out.

too many tackles
need to keep at least one most likely Rocky on the sideline most of the game. This has all the making of a pass first game, and the DE’s are gonna be needed to get Brady off his mark. He is not a mobil QB so gut pressure from Canty and Linval will help, but the rotation of the 3 DE’s is gonna take precendent over the DT’s.
If they decide to try to establish the run, JPP and Tuck are every bit as effective as the DT’s at stuffing things up.
You down wit JPP?
I got 99 problems but a Vick ain't one!
yeah, that is what I meant
keep at least one of them on the field at all times.. I didnt write what I was thinking..

Thry have to chip Gronk off the line
Early and make him test that ankle. I think they’ll play man with a zone behind it. Hernandez is no where near as fast as Davis. Davis was probably the fastest guy on either team. We need to be aware of Hernandez, but he’s not as explosive.

Hernandez leads the LEAGUE
in forcing missed tackles by a wide margin, followed by Gronk. Underestimating Hernndez is nuts. NUTS.
It is what it is
Solid fundamentals and bumping Hernandez off the line should throw him off enough
I do agree though, my cousin is a Gator and we’ve both seen the versatility of Aaron the past few years now.
If you underestimate his playmaking ability, he’ll kill you. But if you factor him into the gameplan, he can be neutralized.

I'm very skeptical at any stat measuring forced missed tackles
Hernandez and Gronk are good players, these two rosters are full of em. But you now it’s going to be a big name and a little name that will be the keys. I mean David Tyree making two important catches, if he wasn’t so religious I’d figure he cut a deal.
Eli is our King!
We will be fine.
We are not going to sleep on TEs or other players.

Your TEs are the most explosive players on the offense.
We won’t be overlooking either. Cweb can hold down Welker and keep him to short gains. Ochocinco will be a non factor he might not even play and I don’t expect Branch to do much against Ross.

by Giant Ken on Jan 31, 2012 4:41 PM EST via mobile up reply actions
That would at least force them to put him in motion or split him out wide
If he’s within 6 feet of either tackle our DE ends are going to pop him in the mouth every snap. Hernandez has to be the guy lined up tight so they can’t ask Gronk to Block that much with the ankle.
Blue is the color of melancholy and honesty
Green is the color of inexperience, envy and nausea.
Watch for a similar game plan
by the Pats to the one Giants used vs Buffalo in Supe 25. Pats personnel well tailored to similar short passing game along with run to consume clock. Also their coach remembers it well.
DavebrownNOT
I said the same thing
They want to shorten the game. We need to get up on them early and force them to throw.
by Giant Ken on Jan 31, 2012 4:43 PM EST via mobile up reply actions
Shortening the game favors US
If they give Bradshaw and Jacobs room to run, we will win by double-digits. The games we have performed best in are the ones we have been able to run in.
Also, keeping the quarterback off the field can backfire, especially when Eli’s favorite plays are the deep routes that result from effective play action.
Belichick knows this and that we have a weak offensive line. He’s going to blitz Eli, a lot. Fortunately Eli has been solid all year vs. the blitz and NE does not have a back seven/eight like the 49ers do. This means if the pressure doesn’t hit home, the coverage won’t provide the Patriot defense with a way out.

I doubt he blitzes that much at all
They’ll play weird zones with d lineman dropping into.coverage and try to keep our guys in front of them and tackle.
They’re going to try to run and dare us to run. They will not be able to keep up with our offense against our defense and will subject Brady to a ton of hits if we can score and force them to throw every down. This is why, I believe, we cant let them shorten the game. It’s their only chance!
This isnt 2007, we are the more explosive offense. I’m not saying that we shouldnt run,but we should lean on Eli early.
by Giant Ken on Jan 31, 2012 6:02 PM EST via mobile up reply actions
I don't think your offense is more explosive than the pats.
Potentially? It can be there in a year or two. Based on personnel that is. You guys have 3 dangerous receivers but the pats have 3 even more dangerous receivers: Welker, Gronk, Hernandez and they have the best QB in the NFL. I can certainly see you guys with having an offense up to par with ours in the very very near future, but not on Sunday. I am not naive to not know the amount of potential you guys have. Just too early to say that you have the more explosive offense.
I’ll take 11 players with heart on the field over 11 guys with just talent. Talent is fleeting, it goes away over time. Heart is what drives you to be better. To push yourself beyond what you think your capabilities are. To show us that when you strive, all things are possible.- SMP

well...
U guys have 71 plays of 20+ yd & 14 of 40+. We have 67 & 18 respectively. So id say both offenses are just as explosive as the other.

Our offense is not built to get deep throws. They are built to methodically drive down the field, and eat up clock.
The pats have had a much more consistent offense than the Giants. In retrospective, I guess Im saying its a tad early to say the Giants have a better offense.

No you don't.
QB= Pats
WRs= Giants
TEs= Pats
OL= Pats
RBs= Giants
But the reason we have a better offense is because we are more consistent and effiicient. Brady has performed much better than Eli this year, and our TEs have devastated teams and Welker is having a career year putting up numbers that are top 3 WR worthy. Our OL is incredible, and we have a decent Running game.
Reason I would have the pats offense over yours is simply due to consistency, and they are a tad more efficient (you would know by the numbers if anything).

Thats ok keep repeating what happened during the most of the regular season and keep ignoring us when we say that some of our major players on both sides of the ball did not get healthy and available till the 15th game of the season.
This is not the 2007 team.
2011 NYG will have their own legacy.
Our major players on OUR defense were not healthy.
Spikes, Chung, McCourty in some way. Spikes and CHung are our big ones though, and now they are healthy. Branch has been injured for a few games, Vollmer our starting RT has been injured all season.
And I don’t understand what your mad about (if you are mad). The pats offense has been the most consistent offense in the NFL, and have been top 3 all year. Why the hell would I choose the giants offense over the pats?

I'm wondering when the Giants offense gets to play the Pats offense?
See to me, it’s our DL against your OL, to me that’s advantage Giants. Especially since our DL is so deep and so versatile.
Eli is our King!
Its hard for me to say an advantage. our OL is playing lights out this year.

And yeah, I dont expect you guys to dominate our OL. We have been shutting down all sorts of pass rushers all season long and our interior has been pretty damn stout. You guys don’t have strahan. lol

the 38-35 game?
Not a chance, Brady had much more time in that game and was far more effective because of how much attention Moss commanded. The D-line could not get pressure, which is why Spagnuolo had to rely on extra rushers to get to Tom. Our line didn’t really erupt until the Tampa Bay game then was off and rolling.
For the record I don’t think it will be a blowout either way (even though if my team brought their manful pants and gave us fans the first game this season we could relax the fourth quarter, I’d be overjoyed), it will come down to the 4th quarter close, then one team will pull away and probably win by 10 or so.

Good luck with JPP and Co.
People focused on the beating Eli took against 49ers. The media is ignoring that Smith sort of gave up after a while. He didn’t hang in and just sprinted out and one hopped a ball.
That was a 4 man rush against an OL that had been playing very very well, and was max protecting. we may get 2-3 sacks, but the hits and pressures will be there.

Agree that hits on Eli eclipsed the hits on Smith
Smith was scared and you could see it.

It's a different kind of defense
Only team we saw that plays our way is SF. No real dependence on gimmicks,schemes and blitzes. So the underneath stuff may be there,but they aren’t gimmes. So we tell teams,if you can let your QB hold the ball, you’ll get some looks downfield and on the sides.
Our guys are just used to pushing the pocket, the sacks and the hits come cause they win the battles. I still expect you guys to put up some points.
Eli is our King!
Branch is old and he's not explosive
Welker is not explosive either and 85 hardly even plays. Gronk and Hernandez are explosive sure but they are TEs. WRs are always more explosive than the TE position and all 3 of the Giants WRs can kill you from the X, Y, and Z spots. It’s why our offense is more explosive.

Banch may be old, but he can still play well, and he and Brady have very good chemistry.
Welker not explosive? Whaaaaa? He is top 3 in the NFL this year in terms of stats. he has been a matchups nightmare for everyone.
Yeah Ocho is meh so far..
Your dislike of TEs is alarming. Our TEs have terrorized defenses the entire year, and they are pretty damn explosive if you have watched the patriots (which you don’t). If they weren’t so damn explosive I wonder how they both set up records and broke open for big plays and scored a bunch of TDs. Think of herndo as our Dallas Clark, and Gronk as our Jason Witten in his prime.
Nicks has the same amount of TDs as herndo. Gronk has more. Actually… Gronk beats out Nicks in receptions, yardage, and TDs.
Gronk and Herndo both have more TDs, yards, and receptions than Manningham (yeah he’s not explosive).
Cruz has more TDs than Herndo, but no where near as close as Gronk. He also has more yards than our TEs, but Gronk is not too far behind.
how about welker…. Oh yeah, he beat nicks, manningham, and cruz in every category (except he is tied with cruz for 9).
Oh Deion? Well the only player he completely beat was Mario Manningham. Yes, Branch “the old scrub” beat manningham this year, and Branch was injured for a few games.
Although I personally believe the pats offense is better, I am merely throwing these out to tell YOU that you are WAY off base if you think our TEs, and our offense overall, is not explosive.

I agree, not talking about the stats.
Numbers are numbers, they mean nothing now. Numbers wise we are close enough to call that a draw in everything but sacks. But that doesn’t matter now. Ever since they were challenged to go “All in”, the defense (hell, the team as a whole) has been playing with a belief and ferocity that I have never seen a team play with before, 2000 Ravens 1985 Bears 1986 and 2007 Giants included. I give the Giants the defensive edge because as Justin Tuck, our very blunt Captain said, “it is almost impossible to stop 11 guys playing as one, playing for each other”.
Their faith in each other is why I give them the edge; this group would go to war with each other, has been through war, and has emerged more refined, more faithful, and more lethal than ever before. Haven’t seen the Patriots defense do that (to this point, not saying they have not already or will not Sunday, but I have not seen it yet).

Completely different defense than pretty much the entire regular season now that we have guys healthy.

I doubt he blitzes that much at all
They’ll play weird zones with d lineman dropping into.coverage and try to keep our guys in front of them and tackle.
They’re going to try to run and dare us to run. They will not be able to keep up with our offense against our defense and will subject Brady to a ton of hits if we can score and force them to throw every down. This is why, I believe, we cant let them shorten the game. It’s their only chance!

Yawn.
Hernandez and Gronkowski both had nice days the last time the Giants played them, and the Patriots only scored 20 points and lost.
Bottom line is, if the biggest problem the Giants face is how to contain their opponent’s tight ends, they don’t have much to worry about.
Tight ends. Give me a break.
normally I would agree
but the TE is their primary weapon. The need to limit them is obvious.
I might even think of getting a CB on Hernandez as much as possible.
You down wit JPP?
I got 99 problems but a Vick ain't one!
They're tight ends.
They’re limited by definition.
I don't know about that look at their receiving yards...They are the Pats core threat..
Then of course that damn pesky Welker..and Don’t forget Branch and Ochostinko..
"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..."
From the article:
“When the teams met earlier this season (a 24-20 New York victory) Gronkowski had his way with the Giants, hauling in eight catches for 101 yards and a touchdown, while Hernandez had four catches for 35 yards and a touchdown.”
That’s a great day for a corp of tight ends, and the Patriots still lost. Because tight ends are just tight ends. No team ever got beat by a tight end, and it’s not going to happen this Sunday.
The key to the game is Brady. The Giants will play the tight ends like they’re tight ends.
They are not your everyday ordinary TEs..They don't use them as
your basic TE..they use them differently..The Giants can’t cover them like your saying they will..They’ll get toasted..That first game that we won is ancient history now…They will not treat them like they are just TEs…
"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..."
hernandez
Ran the ball pretty good as an RB in one game. He can line up just about anywhere on the field.
Exactly..that is what I am trying to say here...Even Gronk lines up in the backfield...
And they line up wide..so they can’t be covered like you normally would handle a TE..and they have two good ones..Normally you face one…like say Witten for example..not in this case..
"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..."
Yeah
Gronkowski scored more touchdowns than any other receiver this year from any position. How can you say no one gets beat by a TE? El Pope, you must be on the dope!

Gronkowski will have a great game
for a tight end. And the Patriots will lose.
Perry Fewell has an easy job. The Patriots don’t have much of a vertical passing attack, so all the Giants need to do is clog the middle, so Brady can’t go to his check downs. That extra half second he’ll take to go through his progressions is all Tuck, Osi, et al will need to get to him and make his life miserable. Sure, he’ll complete a lot of dinks and dunks to Gronk, maybe even break off a couple for touchdowns. But it won’t be enough. Giants 31 Patriots 17.
Man
It’s amazing this horrendous shell of a professional football team even won a game all year.
Can I Scream?
Tell that to the Redskins,
and go back to watch what Gronk did to their DBs.
It is what it is
We were ahead and you guys had the last ball. And you got the game winning TD.
DOnt make it seem like you blew us out. We came back, took the lead, and you guys got the ball at the last minute. Plus Spikes and Chung were injured in the 3rd, and did not return. your game winning drive was the result of some guy named Sergio Brown giving you one or TWO PIs that set you up on the one.

It was no great mystery that the San Fran pass game was limited to predominately a single TE. How was he not covered? Mistakes happen, but when there is such predictability to it all?

We have to cover those guys...or we're in for it...this el pope guy thinks they..
Are just TEs…must be a kid who needs to watch football more..Those TEs you have are dangerous…then all of a sudden that slippery Welker shows up and burns you..and Branch..I’m not real concerned with Ocho ..but the rest?..They need to be taken seriously..Which I’m sure they are…

Rolle effed up on the first TD
He peaked into the backfield when he should of been running with Davis, and Davis is dam fast that once he got ahead of Rolle and Grant he was gone.
The second TD was a wierd zone call, in which Phillips was up on the line across from Davis who got a step on KP but the Corner Webster was supposed to come over the top and help out and he was late. It was a wierd coverage. It never looked right.
I don’t think many of us agree with el pope, your TE’s were part of one of the most explosive offenses in recent history, I fear your TE’s very much I think most Giant fans realize that and too me the scare me more because Brady can get them the ball quick which neutralizes our pass rush.

They were blown coverages, but against a guy with normal fast speed, they aren’t big plays.

I just hope Eli isn't too tired.
INDIANAPOLIS—Pointing out that Peyton has a big house in Indianapolis and that they never hang out together anymore, Eli Manning approached his brother Friday to ask if he could crash at his place when he’s in town for the Super Bowl. “C’mon, man, I can just stay on the couch if the spare bedroom is really full of stuff,” a brotherly e-mail from the Giants quarterback read in part. “C’mon, it’ll be fun.” Although Peyton Manning has reportedly not yet given Eli a definite answer, in his initial replies he has written, “I dunno, man, my place isn’t really all THAT big,” and “Oh, yeah, just remembered my dad is gonna be staying with me that week, so maybe no.”

Treat the 2 TE sets as passing formations
Dare them to run. Let em chew up some yardage in the middle of the field, but keep the passing game in check.
Usually a double TE set equals run or play action. I wouldn’t be suprised to see the 3 Safety set as our base defense, it gives us our best matchups with those two. Grant, KP, and Rolle will have to react and come up into the run game without getting burned by play action… no pressure fellas.
You down wit JPP?
I got 99 problems but a Vick ain't one!
if u wanna know when the pats will run or pass
Just look at where Tom Terrific lines up. If hes uner center, more often than not, it will be a run play. And the exact opposite is true when he’s in the gun. They pass.

when football season is over I really don’t care until the first preseason game and even then I’m just concerned about guys getting injured. Week One I get into it.

Things to know about our TEs;
They like to chip pass-rushers. Ask Suggs.
They like to take advantage of LBs and Ss in coverage
They know how to cause missed-tackles.
They like to try powering their way through DBs.
They’ll suffer a concussion to score a touchdown.
Brady loves them like younger brothers.
It is what it is
And they are superb at doing those things.
People like to downplay our TEs sometimes. Please don’t.
I’ll take 11 players with heart on the field over 11 guys with just talent. Talent is fleeting, it goes away over time. Heart is what drives you to be better. To push yourself beyond what you think your capabilities are. To show us that when you strive, all things are possible.- SMP

Is so clearly better than Eli. I dont know if he’s watched any Giants games or if he’s watched the pats against teams with good defense. The pats are very good at putting 45 on terrible teams.

Which is the amount of points your supposed to put up against bad defenses.....
and we put 23 up against the ravens top 3 defense (who is better than your defense), while brady threw two INTs and woody fumbled on a kickoff. I think Brady deserves more credit tan you think considering he went over 5000 yards and had his second best season.
I’ll take 11 players with heart on the field over 11 guys with just talent. Talent is fleeting, it goes away over time. Heart is what drives you to be better. To push yourself beyond what you think your capabilities are. To show us that when you strive, all things are possible.- SMP
I think Eli deserves more credit
Since he threw for 4900 yrds +, with two undrafted receivers who never had a catch in the nfl until this year, with the worst rushing attack in the league, without his left tackle, without his center for 7 games, without his best running back for most of the year, without his full compliment of receivers for most of the year and a team that led the nfl in drops.
He got hit over 20 times against the best defense in the league last week and still threw for over 300 yards and two TDs. How did tommy boy do last week against a good defense? Boy, he did look good against the broncos! So, you have that going for you.

Undrafted WRs who are VERY good. I knew Cruz was special since his preseason debut (told my friends all about him since they are giants fans).
Dont get me wrong, Eli deserves a ton of credit, and he is a great QB. Discounting Brady and the pats offense is not the way to prove this point. The pats offense is great. The TEs are spectacular, welker had a top 3 WR numbers this year, and Brady carried this team throughout most of the season and through since our defense was experiencing gigantic losses in Chung and Spikes and were inexperienced throughout the season. To do what Brady did was awesome, and our offensive scheme is the most unique scheme in the NFL. I don’t know why you would want to discount them just from their schedule. Anyone in their right minds know that Brady has a top 3 offense.
Eli is a great QB, but if Brady was behind as the Giants QB, you are probably seeing a 2007 patriots. Eli is great, but Brady and the offense deserves more credit than you are giving them.

Awareness
On his first catch that was not a TD, he flashed awareness and ball skills that few in the league can claim to have.
Jumped out along with what you said, except it kind of whacked me in the head more.

This was the most beat up team in the nfl for most of the year, without Eli, they would not have won 3 games.

He may not have a concurrent opinion with you, and I have no problem that you disagree, especially on such a closely contested topic. However when you shove your opinion in others’ faces over and over and over again, all the while not backing up your side of the argument, that’s not right. If you want to persuade someone, simply repeating your opening statement does nothing to aid you.
And trolling other teams’ fans who come over here to actually talk football makes us all look bad and generates a bad rap.

Go to April 2010 right here on this site.
We did Giants By The Numbers. We started with jersey number 1 and went all the way thru #99 over several weeks. We discussed so many players going back to 1925 when the team was started. At times we argued and debated. Number 85 was the biggest one. Ed and some thought it should belong to Tyree while many argued and said no. Some said it should be Stephen Baker (the TD maker) and some like me said it should be Del Shofner who was best to wear that number. Until this year many of us contended that Del Shofner was out best WR ever. i am still waiting to see what our new WRs do over a period of years before i crown one of them.
Anyway dig up Giants By The Numbers and you will be a changed man. You will be even a stronger Giants fan than you are now.
This is not the 2007 team.
2011 NYG will have their own legacy.
Will do, and wise call on our current receiver btw
I’ve always been partial to Amani myself. Very kind individual who put up outstanding numbers in the clutch. Whenever you needed it most, Amani would be there.
Had some serious afterburners early on too.
Del Shofner should be a runaway with 85 too. Baker was not much more than a red zone threat, and Tyree had two outstanding plays in one game. I like him, but big whoop -so did Timmy Smith in the 1987 Superbowl for Washington. Shoftner was a consistent monster at his position and would have finished stronger if not for an illness towards the end of his Giants career. Easily the #85 of Big Blue.

But we know what Eli is all about and how good he is..and he’s starting to be recognized for his achievements..But you know I’m happy having a low key QB run this offense..and as TC said he is the best QB he ever coached #1…and I don’t know if you heard his interview about Peytons injury, but it was awesome..He truly loves his brother..and you’ll never see him under the spotlight bragging..All you get with Eli is Eli..an elite talent with no bravado or arrogance..just a good guy who works hard and goes home to the college sweetheart he married..

See it used to be that we had to convince our own Giants fans that Eli is a great QB. Now we have to convince others that same thing.
As for Giants future victories, here is a quote from my story how i became a Giants fan which i posted her eon BBV about 2 years ago:
Quote:
By the time we celebrate our first hundred years in 2025 our Giants are going to be the team with the most league championship wins. Yes we will leave behind the Packers. Sky is the limit what we will do in our next century between 2025 and 2125. We will have so many people who will be part of our Giants legacy and become NFL legends and those guys are not even born yet. Trust me it is for a reason this team does not have cheerleaders. We men and women and children who are Giants fans are all the cheerleaders this team requires.
To the current and future Giants fans and players I would like to say that keep your chins up and be proud of the legacy that you are a part of.
Remember that you heard it from this poet first that: Being a Giants fan or player is not a label it is a calling!

I’ll take 11 players with heart on the field over 11 guys with just talent. Talent is fleeting, it goes away over time. Heart is what drives you to be better. To push yourself beyond what you think your capabilities are. To show us that when you strive, all things are possible.- SMP
Chill brother...
BB1156 is a good guy…maybe came across a little strong but I’ll vouch for him…He’s always been very respectful to folks…

You talk about inexperience
We have two receivers who NEVER caught a pass in an NFL game until this year, in one of the most complicated schemes in the nfl. This offense was not fully formed into what it is now until the middle of the year. Our defense was in pieces until about week 15!

They dont get it lol so they will just see it for themselves
This is not the 2007 team.
2011 NYG will have their own legacy.
I KNOW how good they are and I think they are GREAT WRs.
Our defense was in pieces until the PLAYOFFS which is when our two KEY starters returned in Chung and Spikes.
Also, I meant inexperience on defense. not offense.

Really?
So when your 5th and 6th CB and your 3rd and 4th safety start for most of that year, that speaks “experienced players” to you?

Here's to a good an injury free game.
Both the teams earned their spots to make it to this game. There was no luck or anything else.

Salude
Random, but saw a quote yesterday somewhere on here that described luck pretty well:
“Luck is when preparation meets opportunity.”
If this is the case, then TC better have our boys prepared for WHEN we get an opportunity to be great this weekend, because our moment will come.
“Fate rarely calls on us at a moment of our choosing; make the most of your moment.”

i dont like this bye week. Our guys have been on a roll weekly.
Game is on the road which we are good at and TC will make sure the guys are focused and win the game. The guys will be motivated themselves too since they know it is not an opportunity that comes often. After saying that i still do not like the bye week leading to superbowl.
This is not the 2007 team.
2011 NYG will have their own legacy.
I don't either
In this case, I think it really helped. We had some guys banged up after the San Fran game, and the rest should help them significantly elevate their play.
Specifically: Hakeem, Bradshaw, Baas and (perhaps most key) Tuck come to mind.
Hearing the players is really reassuring. They seem loose, and really believe in the team and each other. Great sign going into the game.

and it is also allowing their main offensive weapon (TE) to get healed. But i have faith in the Giants. They will come true.

Agree..this break helped..
and watching..listening to the player interviews..They don’t sound like they lost any steam they were building up..just getting more water for the locomotive..
"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..."
Agreed
On the bright side, it allowed the player who will cover Gronkowski to recover and get in some practice beforehand, unlike his counterpart.
They really believe they can do it too, that’s probably the most overlooked but advantageous factor in our favor

Yes no injuries..just good old fashioned football..
It will be a great game..for the two teams that deserve it most no matter what other people think..They took different roads to get to Indy..but they got there..Our team had to take side roads versus the Patriots taking I-95..but they both made it..they deserve to be there and both deserve the chance for the trophy..Like I said it doesn’t matter what anyone else thinks..The most important people that count are the Giants, the Patriots and their fans…

Who cares what others think anymore. We are here and they are not. Especially you fucking Eagle fans that I like to extend a huge middle finger to your fan base and your team.

"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 have an idea
Let’s leave the quarterback debate for later…as in after the game. This is the first time ever that two teams with a former Superbowl MVP QB will face off in the big one.
They are both incredible players and invaluable to their respective teams.
Let’s wait until after Sunday to decide which elite quarterback is the top dog, because then we will have some more applicable ammunition.

There was no shame there.
Guy i was responding to said let us not debate who is the better qb between the two so i agreed and said yeah and then added but Eli is better than Brady. Then added the haha as making fun that i already shot his point on not debating the issue. Someone posted something before me and it fell lower in the list while i was trying it to be right under that post.

the same was said about the pats WRs in SB 42.
Setting the edge, and pressuring. By no means is this game going to be easy to win. If you’d like, you can read my keys to the giants. It wont be easy covering all 3 of your WRs, but there are more factors into the game than just that.

reality
let’s face it, unless the line harrasses and pounds brady, the pats are going to pass with success. look at the pack game. if they don’t drop all those passes, maybe the giants aren’t in Indy today. the giants are not great against the pass, mainly because the LB’s are not good in pass coverage.
they must introduce Brady to the turf, even if the refs protect Brady like they always do. and then the O has to put up TD’s, not FG’s.
Shoot the puck Barry!!!
