Around SBN: Win or Lose, Boston Celtics' New Big 3 Era A Success

The New York Giants Annihilate The Falcons -- Bring On The Packers!

The New York Giants, who have had an iffy season, just did what most would not have thought possible only a few short weeks ago. They didn't only win their first playoff game at home in over a decade, they shut a very dangerous Atlanta Falcons offense out completely.

It was a battle of defensive wills in the first half. Each team tried to get their passing and running games going early on. But the result was nil until the final seven minutes of the first quarter. Matt Ryan of Atlanta picked up the tempo of the game by going to the no-huddle, with a moderate degree of success.

The Falcons began a 14-play drive that would be decided by Atlanta's ability to scratch and claw for one-single inch. On a fourth-and-one, at the Giants 24-yard line, Mike Smith made an executive decision to go for it.

That decision came back to haunt him. The New York defense, which had been playing extremely well up until that point, stacked the line, held the Falcons back from converting and forced the ball back into their own hands. Michael Boley and Linval Joseph were credited with the stop.

Star-divide

Smith's questionable fourth-down decision was not entirely without reward. The Giants, unable to get their offense going and capitalize on the opportunity, found themselves giving up two points on a safety in their end zone. Eli Manning was flushed out of the pocket by James Sanders. Manning, trying to avoid a sack/safety, threw the ball away but didn't throw far enough. Nor did he have a receiver in the area. The play resulted in the first two-points of the game. Atlanta 2-0.

The G-Men were able to contain the Falcons once again and force a punt. They got the ball back with just under eight-minutes to go in the second quarter. It was at that point that Big Blue were able to get the ball moving. In an area that they have suffered all season long, the Giants began to get the ball moving on the ground. On a thirteen-play scoring drive, Brandon Jacobs, with a head full of steam, rushed for a total of 46 yards, including a 34-yard run - his longest of the season. Ahmad Bradshaw rushed for nine yards and had 15 receiving yards on the same drive. Eli Manning had success running the ball, also. Manning scrambled to keep the drive alive, early on, for 14 yards. Ultimately, a four-yard touchdown pass to Hakeem Nicks were the first offensive points on the board. Giants,7-2.

Pressure was item number one on the Giants' defensive menu today. And pressure is exactly what they brought on the next drive. Justin Tuck and Jason Pierre-Paul were two of the most relentless pass rushers. But it was Rocky Bernard who got to Matt Ryan for the first sack of the day. The New York defense continued to dominate, limiting the Atlanta offense to zero points in the first half.

Matt Ryan and his Falcons got the ball back at the start of the half. However, the New York defense continued to batter and bruise up the Atlanta offense. The G-Men allowed one first-down conversion and forced the Birds to punt again. On the next drive, New York worked their way down the field but couldn't find the end zone for seven. They were limited to a Lawrence Tynes field goal, making the score 10-2.

The Falcons, looking to get back in the game, drove down the field only to experience another case of stomach-churning, deja vu. Threatening to score on a face-saving drive, Atlanta found themselves back in another risky fourth-and-one situation. Repeating their mistakes of the past, they opted to go for it. The Big Blue Wall stopped them in their tracks, once more. Three plays later and the Giants had another seven-points on the board. A seventy-two yard Manning-Nicks reception being the beefy play of the 1:32 drive. The Giants ended the third quarter on top, 17-2.

The G-Men continued to control both sides of the ball in the fourth quarter. Manning orchestrated another scoring drive, both in the air and on the ground. Brandon Jacobs had a stellar day, recording 92 rushing yards - with a long of thirty-four. Ahmad Bradshaw had a great day on the ground, as well. He put up 63 rushing yards, with a long of thirty yards.

The Falcons came in expecting that Victor Cruz would make big things happen and covered him as such. The problem was that with all of the focus they put on Cruz distracted them from all of the other offensive weapons that the Giants posses, Hakeem Nicks in particular. Nicks had 115 receiving yards and two touchdowns. Eli Manning's 23-of-32 for 277 yards and three touchdowns earned him a passer rating of 129.3. Rocky Bernard and Osi Umenyiora recorded a sack each. Jason Pierre-Paul had six-solo tackles and two assists.

You have to give credit to the Giants secondary this week. They shadowed a very talented Falcons receiving corps. The Giants won every battle on the field. Their running game was downhill all day. Their aerial attack was precise. The secondary were everywhere and our O/D lines played their best game of the season. The Giants were a cohesive unit stuck together with contact cement. They are a very dangerous playoff team right now. The Green Bay Packers might find themselves feeling quite blue after playing the Giants next week.

by 1giantlion on Jan 8, 2012 4:26 PM EST up reply actions  

here's why we can win next week

First of all, our defense and running game have been much better the last month, and when you pair that with the way Eli and the receivers are playing, that makes for a very balanced team that’s tough to play against. Also, Rodgers hasn’t played in three weeks. He could come out rusty and make a couple of mistakes early. If the Giants can capitalize on those mistakes, we could put a lot of pressure on them early.

by long time listener on Jan 8, 2012 4:26 PM EST reply actions  

Congratulations, from a Falcons fan.

I hope you guys go all the way and win the big dance. If the Falcons had shown up, it may have been a different game.

Your defense certainly surprised me, and their excellence mixed with our absolute incompetent imbecile of an OC, well, you saw the result. I hope you guys beat the shit out of the Packers (and subsequently the Saints, if they make it).

Nicks first down on 3rd 2nd quarter no measurment inside 2 minutes by the league was horrible… the 3rd down pass was also stupid.

Nicks goal line no pass interference call on the falcon defneder another terrible non call.

atl going for it on 4th and less then 1 with a empty backfield, Jones in motion setting late, was a call a coach should be called for… no turner in the backfield even if you are going to sneek.

the roughing call on williams 57 with 3 minutes left stopping the guy 1 yard short. HOW CAN ANYONE MAKE THAT CALL. HORRIBLE>>>>>

Couldn't have TC challenged that Safety?

I thought the entire ball had to be in the endzone for the call to be a safety. And it didn’t look that way to me (although no real solid replay was provided). And for that matter, aren’t the officials supposed to review ALL scoring plays? I didn’t notice any review whatsoever.

by Giants11 on Jan 8, 2012 5:47 PM EST up reply actions  

no

only the nose of the ball has to touch the goal line. It was a safety.

by GMen56-11 on Jan 8, 2012 5:58 PM EST up reply actions  

The safety was on a penalty

It was ruled intentional grounding, not “in the grasp”. Since it was a penalty, the only criterion is that the penalty occurred in the end zone. Since Eli was pretty clearly in the EZ, it was the right call. Pissed me off, but that was one of the few the refs got right.

Congrats to the Giants for not just beating, but destroying my Falcons =(

Maybe that beat down will help shake up our coaching staff and roster.

Awesome team you guys have there (especially that D. God damn they are a pack of f’n beasts. Stopped our running and passing attack completely) Good luck to you guys against the Packers next week =)

Fun Fact (for those of you that don’t know): Since the beginning of the Mike Smith era in 2008, every team that has beaten the Falcons in the playoffs went on to the Superbowl .

MEMO TO JERRY RESSE...

In the offseason this year PLEASE invest in a TE that can at least CATCH the ball. To ask for a Jimmy Graham clone might be stretching it a bit, but the drops by Ballard is getting annoying. I know that catching the ball has been an issue with some of our receivers but we can’t have little miscues like that against teams like GB or NO, or even the 49ers for that matter. Little things end up being the determining factor in close games. Other than that, great game today. I told my co-workers at the beginning of the season that the Giants would win the SB and everyone laughed at me,… it doesn’t seem all that funny anymore. LOL

by PaulieTheDon1 on Jan 8, 2012 5:06 PM EST reply actions  

eaxctly

noone expected ballard to even make the team let alone be the starter. Im happy with what he’s given us and he’s got a ton fewer drops than Boss had last year so just let the kid grow. I think we;re in a great position with talent on this team.

beside that, who cares about the offseason yet. we’re in it to win it! lets go get #4

Kudos again to Boothe...

…only O-line starter other than McKenzie to not get flagged, and as far as I could tell, seldom did his man get by him. Also, great kick out block on BJ’s big run with both guards pulling — he and Snee didn’t have to pancake their guys, just rub them out of the play, which is what they effectively did.

Monster running lanes today, kudos to the whole O-line, but more so to the guys who played mistake-free football — and among the O-line, only Boothe today falls into that category.

Reading the Falcons blog

Allows us to gain a little perspective into how other people in the league view the Giants. They want to focus on how we are the last ranked rushing offense, or the worst defense in the league. No one there pays attention to our team to know that things have changed due to the injuries that have healed up within the last 3-4 weeks. This is what is going to decide it for Big Blue. Teams constantly underrating us and continually thinking that we are not good enough. Frankly, I wouldn’t have it any other way as this team competes when it is viewed as the underdog.

it hasn’t worked since week one. Why the hell the asshole Gilbride has it in the playbook still……the guy just loves to aggravate.

One of the few things Eli needs to improve is the screen pass. Completely out of sync

Traditional fade back screen works great

Tynes doesn’t give me confidence going into next week, missing the easy 3.

Yeah Tynes is looking like Nicks was looking a few weeks ago....

He’s gotta get it together. Shanking it from point blank range is inexcusable

cushion

it would have been a 4 score game if made. I think if Smith opted to not go for it on both 4th downs..the game would have been very different.

by Dirt Marguirk on Jan 8, 2012 5:39 PM EST up reply actions  

It looked like a bad, high snap

He was bad in NFC champ game at GB in 07, but ultimately got it dobe.

eh...Tynes missing FGs is a good sign

reminds me of a few years ago. Its when he’s making them all that I get worried.

Sash was getting a far amount of reps today...

…and I didn’t notice either Rolle or KP out of the game on big downs. Was he platooning with Grant, or did one of the safeties leave the game with an injury?

Prince stepped in for Ross due to an injury, but I was stunned to see Sash get valuable playing time with Atlanta driving in the red zone, particularly if no other safety got nicked up.

by Step up and make big plays on Jan 8, 2012 5:40 PM EST reply actions  

Grant got hurt but came back

Sash hit one of their WRs and they turned around looking for the license plate

I typically like my safeties faster, but he’s growing on me fast

As was said before

House money now. Time to come up with some really great schemes and trick plays to try and get the momentum in that game. Let’s hope TC and staff come up with a gem of a game plan. We’ll need every edge in that game. But we’ve proven we can hang with them, so at least that mental edge shouldn’t be there. Just stay in it eary. Get behind early and they can forget about it.

Go Giants!

they keep playing the way theyve been the last 3 weeks, and noone can beat us. the only team that remotely scares me is the saints & i think they might be a lil overconfident if we meet them again. but we’ll pull a STL & crush Brees

Great victory for a unified Giants!

The G-Men defeated a talented Falcons team that couldn’t make the needed plays. The Giants finally played as a unified team. They looked great. I don’t understand that unnecessary roughness call against the Giants on Turner late in the 4th for throwing him to the ground.

HEY GUESS WHAT??!!`

As of right now,… the Giants have the BEST defense in the playoffs right now and we are averaging 170+ ypg. Not too bad for the NFL’s second season. I hope teams keep looking at the regular season stats

by PaulieTheDon1 on Jan 8, 2012 6:03 PM EST reply actions  

Love the W, but hate to see a class act like Tony Gonzalez be on the wrong side of the win column again

He’s now 0-5 in the playoffs over his 15-year career, and deserves better. He’ll be 36 this offseason, which may very well mean that the best to ever play the TE position may retire without every tasting playoff glory.

My Take

First of all I want to give my regards to the Atlanta Falcons and their fans. Good game!

The Packers have no idea what they have in store for them.

“Evil Laugh”

The Giants defense is playing now like they did in 2007. The scary thing is that they have more defensive talent than they had during the Super Bowl run.

I think this has been a byproduct of our players getting healthy at the right time as well as scheme change by Perry “Radio” Fewell.

Defense wins championships!

The Giants will go into Green Bay pissed off and looking for blood. Aaron Rodgers better visit his State Farm agent because our defense may send him to the hospital. LOL

by ChicagoGiantsFan on Jan 8, 2012 6:06 PM EST reply actions  

Agreed

Also,.JPP is the best defender in the legue! Unbelievable how athletic that kid is!!!!!

by Giant Ken on Jan 8, 2012 6:11 PM EST via mobile up reply actions  

That is a bad strategy.

Nobody besides Rodgers has done that in a Packer game and won. Not even Matt Flynn.

Wow Steelers are playing like sh*t

Exactly why I don’t bet on sports. Even with an injured Big Ben I figured their LB’s were going to completely pwn Tebow\ and it would be a laugher.

Strikeouts are boring- Besides that, they're fascist. Throw some ground balls - it's more democratic.
