New York Giants News and Notes: It's Really GO Time Edition

Good morning fellow Giants fans, and welcome to the Friday before Super Bowl 46. In about 57 hours, the Giants and Patriots will kick off and we will witness history, win or lose. I kind of feel like the fact that we are in this thing for the fifth time in the last 25 years puts the G-men in some very elite company franchise-wise, and that's a pretty cool thing to consider. The Steelers and Pats are both in that category. The Cowboys would be, but they haven't gone to the playoffs in a very long time. The Eagles and Jets tend to get near the top of the mountain before stumbling. You get the idea. However, we just HAVE to win this thing. We have to win to complete the storybook finish we've been enjoying for the past month and a half. We have to win to get Eli a second ring. We have to win to put both he and TC in the Hall of Fame conversation. We have to win because we know what losing the big one feels like. So here we go, let's see what is floating around the Big Blue Web this Friday morning.....

Trash-talking NY Giants like Chris Canty, Jason Pierre-Paul should embrace underdog role as in years past - NY Daily News
The coach of the Giants says that the team’s mentality is still "us against the world" even after Chris Canty has told Giants fans to get ready for a parade. It is a good thing there is no more player availability at Super Bowl 46, Thursday was the end of it, just because all it takes is a few comments such as Canty’s to get everybody thinking the Giants have suddenly turned into the Jets.

Victor Cruz's meteoric rise has powered New York Giants to Super Bowl XLVI - Don Banks - SI.com
There are at least two questions that come to mind when beholding the out-of-nowhere monster season turned in by salsa-dancing second-year Giants receiver Victor Cruz: Where in the world would this New York team have been without him? (Already home, immersed in the offseason). And when was the last time you heard anyone who cares about Giants blue bemoaning the loss of veteran slot receiver Steve Smith to Philadelphia in free agency? (Early September 2011, give or take a week).

I think we'd all agree that the 99-yarder against the Jets was the turning point in the Giants' season.

Super Bowl 2012 -- New York Giants will be history's punch line if they lose - ESPN New York
For blustering their way to the big game, for carrying themselves with as much championship-round swagger as any New York team since the '86 Mets, the New York Giants might want to find a way to beat the Bradys and Belichicks on Sunday night. If they fail to stage a Super Bowl XLII sequel in this rematch, if they make prophets of the Vegas bookies who have them placing second in Lucas Oil Stadium, the Giants will go down as contenders who talked their way out of a title. Fair or unfair, right or wrong, history won't remember the runner-up Giants as kindly as a 7-7 team that advanced to the Super Bowl should be remembered.

What happened to "Talk is cheap, play the game?"

New York Giants quarterback Eli Manning is easy-going, but don't let that fool you | NOLA.com
"He has a wonderful way of taking whatever comes and moving on," said Cooper Manning, Eli Manning brother. That’s what the elder statesman of the Manning brothers offered as an intriguing, spot-on feeling of what keeps the quarterback of the New York Giants ticking merrily along. It’s a simple game plan. Enjoy life. Stay cool

Giants Are Endearing Because They Suffer to Succeed - NYTimes.com
No New York-area team since the turn of the century has generated more admiration than the Coughlin-coached Giants of four years ago. It was not just that they won; it was how they won, with mastery and a miracle, leaving the Patriots in despair and millions to parse the difference between destiny and opportunity. Now they have a chance on Sunday to reprise their historic reinvention by repelling Tom Brady and the Patriots as they did the first time around, pretty much out of thin air.

Star-divide

New York Giants quarterback Eli Manning no longer the 'other Manning' - San Jose Mercury News
Rev up those chainsaws, though. More forests must fall. Peyton's little brother Eli is the "other Manning" no more. Brady vs. Manning will not die. The Manning who four years ago engineered the last-minute scoring drive that derailed New England's pursuit of perfection in Super Bowl XLII gained admittance this season into the NFL quarterbacking elite. NFL know-it-alls now speak of the 31-year-old Eli as respectfully as they do Peyton and Tom and Aaron and Drew. Next Sunday in the House That Peyton Built -- Indianapolis' Lucas Oil Stadium -- Eli will oversee the family business of rivaling Brady when the Giants and Patriots meet in Super Bowl XLVI.

New York Giants’ Eli Manning shows he’s comfortable on big stage - Edwin Pope - MiamiHerald.com
Eli pauses, not for dramatic effect but because he’s bracing for the next question. For a 31-year-old who grew up way down yonder in Louisiana (I mean, it’s out there and then some), he has made a graceful transition to New York’s big city and big stage. We should have known he would, because his big brother Peyton always had such a grip, and still has. I’m not sure Eli will ever be quite as smooth as Peyton. Still a little too much Mississippi mud in his makeup from his days at Ole Miss. But Eli’s sincerity soars and scores.

Giants news conference: Coughlin seizes underdog role at Super Bowl 2012 | The Indianapolis Star | indystar.com
The New York Giants are back in the Super Bowl for the second time since 2008, trying to add to their trophy case. But being Super Bowl champions four years ago at New England's expense hasn't guaranteed the Giants anything this week in preparation for Sunday's game against the Patriots. "It's still us against the world," Giants coach Tom Coughlin said this morning from the Downtown Marriott. "We're still underdogs."

Madonna channels Victor Cruz with salsa dance - chicagotribune.com
Madonna won't explicitly say who she's rooting for, but her spot-on salsa dance in honor of the New York Giants Victor Cruz may have revealed where her allegiance lies. At a news conference Thursday to promote her halftime Super Bowl performance, she was asked what she thought of the wide receiver's touchdown celebration dance and if she had any criticisms of his moves. "I have no criticism ... actually, he's inspired me. I've been practicing," said Madonna, who lives in New York, before busting a move in front of the few hundred media members in attendance.

2012 Super Bowl -- New York Giants' Ahmad Bradshaw, Osi Umenyiora limited in practice Thursday - ESPN New York
The Giants are getting healthier as the week progresses as wide receiver Hakeem Nicks (shoulder), cornerback Corey Webster (hamstring) and linebacker Jacquian Williams (foot) participated in a full practice on Thursday. Bradshaw and defensive end Osi Umenyiora (ankle/knee) were the only Giants who were limited in practice.

New York Giants' Tom Coughlin remembered for nasty style | The Tennessean | tennessean.com
His current players say Coughlin has lightened up — some. After orders from management several years ago to tone it down, he had no choice. But the same players who admit Coughlin can be a bear to play for also say he’s successful because of his no-nonsense, demanding style. And as long as it produces wins, most agreed that’s not necessarily a bad thing.

Super Bowl XLVI: A deeper look at a few Giants, from farmer Mitch Petrus to rodeo-lover Bear Pascoe | NJ.com
It's easy to label Mitch Petrus as a backup offensive lineman. But did you know he hopes to one day be flush with John Deere equipment? It's convenient to only think of Chris Snee as the starting right guard. But just picture him having to find a quiet moment with Tom Coughlin to ask about marrying the coach's daughter. These are some of the eclectic stories of these Giants, beyond football.

For Mara family, owning Giants has provided stabilizing force for NFL, rich history for team | NJ.com
In many ways, buying the Giants in 1925 was another of Tim Mara’s many bets. A bookmaker in the days when it was legitimate work, Mara paid $500 for the franchise when the National Football League was in its infancy and baseball and boxing overshadowed the sport. Eighty-seven years later, the Mara family’s hold on the Giants is still strong as the team prepares to play in its fifth Super Bowl. Only the Chicago Bears, owned by the Halas-McCaskey clan, have been in the hands of one family longer than the Giants.

Giants' Herzlich, Blackburn embody perseverance to perfection - NFL - Sporting News
Could Blackburn grasp what Herzlich felt about getting what, for many, is a death sentence two years earlier? Could Herzlich envision being let go by his team and being so unwanted in the sport he'd sacrificed for that he'd be a phone call away from giving up and becoming a math teacher? On both counts … yes, in a way.

Are the Giants in Brady's head? 'The Flinch' would suggest they are - NFL - CBSSports.com News, Rumors, Scores, Stats, Fantasy Advice
It's hard to imagine a quarterback as great as Brady having anyone or any team inside his head, but that's the feeling I get after watching him and his New England Patriots play the Giants in Week 9 this season and in the Super Bowl the previous time they met. How else can we explain "The Flinch?"

Tom Brady, New England Patriots get New York Giants in Super Bowl - Jim Trotter - SI.com
Brady often projects an image of calm and cool, whether facing a rush of defensive linemen or the crush of paparazzi. But former teammates speak of a different Brady, one whose competitive engine has no kill switch. To see this, you must journey behind the Iron Curtain that is a Patriots practice.

Eli Manning: the joker leading the Giants into Super Bowl 2012 | Sport | guardian.co.uk
It is no secret that Eli Manning enjoys a practical joke. Ask any of his New York Giants team-mates, and they will be quick to regale you with the story of how the quarterback switched the language settings on their phone to Japanese, filled their gloves with purple dye or stuffed their shoes with salami. Ask Manning's oldest brother, Cooper, and he might just explain why he has to treat his own toothbrush with suspicion when the pair get together at the family's annual summer coaching camps.

We're almost there, folks. Get your game faces ready. It's GO time. No, I mean, it's really GO time. Let's do this thing.

I've been living

in Omaha since 1988, transplanted from Governor’s Island in New York. There are very few fans of New York teams in the midwest (with the exception of Yankees of course). it’s kinda cool being the only one though, because I get exclusive rights to kick anyone off the bandwagon.

by rzor on Feb 3, 2012 9:31 AM EST up reply actions  

I was just the opposite

I moved from Omaha to NJ in the mid-80s. Had already joined the bandwagon of the Giants and Mets due to their championships. Was excited because in one year I saw the Huskers in Giants Stadium play A&M in the kickoff classic, the Giants play the Skins, and the Mets play the Phillies. ‘88-’89 was a good year.

Said he was boycotting the game. Boo-hoo, wah-wah.
But when I decided to have a party for the big game he insisted he “wasn’t going to show up.”
The Tony Romo jokes would have been too easy, so I let him wallow in his misery, knowing I’m about to embark on what could be the second best sporting weekend in my life, and he…. Well, he’s a Cowboys fan.

how what Canty and JPP said is any different from Plaxico saying we're gonna win

I have no friggin clue. Although this 2 week circle jerk leading up to the game basically explains it. So they’re confident. JPP said we’re gonna win all these games, and he’s saying it again.

Who cares. This isn’t even trash talk anyway. We’re in the god damn Super Bowl peoples. Annoying, ignorant trash talk happens in preseason and the offseason talking about how many rings you’re gonna win and how you’re a Dream team.

We’ere here. Its them or its us. Champs. Being on one of the teams and saying its gonna be you isn’t trash talk.

No, he’s gonna play better then Brady and lead his team into and win the god damn Super Bowl. And if you don’t like it you can line up and kiss his and Coughlin’s ass.

Your comment made me think of another recent quote about his eyes.

Football blogger Barbara Bruno respects Brady’s talent, but recently said this about him:

“I’m not particularly a Brady fan (I think he’s a cold fish with shark eyes)”

So that they can get their big adjectives & analogies to set the story up to show how the team fails.

It’s more fun for them that way too.

All of this spinning of it not being possible for Brady to have multiple bad performances in a row, don’t bet against Brady & Belichick, etc………………….fact is – they’re not the same team, they’ve barely beat anyone of merit this season & the Giants are just a better team…and we also have a formiddable QB with a formiddable group of WRs.

We all know how Brady plays when you press him up the middle…and with Gronk possibly being less than 50%…come on.

The biggest thing is that this season was commemorated to Myra Kraft.

So the Pats win. Nobody else looks at the trials and tribulations of the Giants.

Cruz was frickin’ poor before this, and now he’s one of the best feel-good stories of the year?Don’t think it would be magical if he won a SB?

Justin Tuck lost not one, but TWO close family members over the course of this season….he played both games the following week. Nobody thinks that he deserves to be rewarded for that?

Ahmad Bradshaw…all I’ve got to say about him is this: http://espn.go.com/new-york/nfl/story/_/id/7512139/2012-nfl-playoffs-ahmad-bradshaw-heart-inspires-new-york-giants

So you have two friends coaching their teams in the greatest game on Earth…and that are owned by two men that were key to saving this season..Both teams belong here going for it all, they deserve it…

What happen to this team? What happen to lets just play the game? TC is he even at this game? I give you this of course confidence is a good thing but is this too much. You better put your money where your mouth is because this place going to blow up if we lose. I am not so fast to past the pats as a weak team compared the others we have faced.

Did you guys see what our numbers are against double TE sets is. 4 sack total this year in that formation and the Pats run it 70% of the time too. Just food for thought/ prediction

Giants 38- New England 35

Eli MVP 325 yards 3 td’s one running td.

by Giantstep on Feb 3, 2012 10:19 AM EST reply actions  

It should be noted

many teams use the 2 TE set to max protect, or will run and sometimes motion one TE across the formation. I think there were instances where the 2 TE was actually an additional OLineman as well. What NE is doing with 2 TE is a little different from that, which is also evidenced by their struggles with the running game despite these “big” formations. Hernandez and Gronk are certainly capable of chipping the DE before going into the pattern, and if Gronk is still feeling sore he may in fact stay in on pass protection more often.

PS: Yes, I realize I used both “noted” and “fact” in my response. Your Mind = Blown

I don't think the Pats are weak

But if you look at GB & SF I think if they played the Pats they would beat them. As for the double TE’s, I imagine the sack total against that scheme is due to keeping them home to block more. I am fine with that, but I do not see NE using them for that purpose. They figure too much into their passing game.

by Jimmy Orange on Feb 3, 2012 10:27 AM EST up reply actions  

I just do not want to give any motivation to Brady. Like going to a parade. I believe part of the reason we won in 42 was because of some of the stuff the pats said during media day.

He knows the Giants are NY’s team by a wide margin and everyone outside of the small but very voca/obnoxious Jet community in the media is pulling for the GMen and the NYC area excitment for this SB and the other two in the past 11 years is genuine while excitment for the Jets is usally Media orcherstrated nonsense ala Michael Kay running a Jet 1050 sponsered Jet Pep Ralley.

Joe already said

He is cheering for the Pats because he can’t deal with another parade in NYC that is not for one of his teams.

You know I'll always give Benigo credit

for biting his toung a bit about the Giants and showing them respect even though he can’t stop rambling about idiotic Jet things when their is nothing Jet related to talk about. I mean Joe did not like them covering the SB banners and has gotten on the Jets for their Micky Mouse typ antics but I think this SB is really wearing on him and he just can’t take it anymore.

Thats true

I always give him credit for being a dieheard fan. When it did look like the Jets would be a championship type team then it fell apart this year, that really got to him.

I suppose I don't blame him.

But then, I don’t feel bad for him either, since he made the wrong decision in becoming a Jets fan in the first place.

yes he does

he was a Giant fan before the Jets became a team, then he jumped ship to the new team. He says he really regrets it.

haven't had much time to listen. I have an hour and a half commute during rush hour to school

Spike can do what he wants

Benigno’s a moron and really shows that by ripping on Spike. I love the Giants gear at the game and even if Spike is a fake Giants fan, he’s a real Knicks fan and hopefully him being decked out in Giants gear lets the Knicks know how much the die hards care about that crappy team they shove out on the court. Dolan really needs to sell the team.

I wonder how much O'Conner got paid by Woody for that artcile?

That is journalisim at its worst and is an obvious attempt to take away from what the Giants have accomplished this year fueled by a jelous spoiled owner who should worry about teams in his own division not one he plays every 4 years. Oconner only mentions how JPP says Brady is not god but does not report the rest of the quote in which he states the only way to beat Brady is to pressure him becasue he’s a great QB. Canty’s comments were the exact same thing as Brady’s at the pep ralley. How are these comments remotley close to anything that Rex Ryan who is a FREAKING coach not a player might say. JPP had zero intent to trash talk, Ryan purposely makes comments to trash talk thats his reason for opening his mouth. THats why the Jets are a joke. Guys like OConner who are paid by the Jets organization are fishing for any reason to take away from the Giants great playoff run by saying if it does not end up in a SB championship its a joke? Oh ok then the last 3 years under Rex the Jets might be one of the worst jokes of all time.

Exactly my point

And if you don’t think Woody has some influence on what gets written then you’re fooling yourself.

John Mara does not do this with WFAN. Nobody says anything about guys like carton or even Joe and Even who talk about the most idiotic Jet topics like who’s going to be the next strenght and condition coach so they don’t have to talk about the Giants.

The Jets are so second rate and Mickey Mouse its not even funny. If I was a Jet fan I’d be ashamed and start rooting for the Steelers or something.

He and his team worked so hard to get to this point and now they need us more than ever to send them positive energy so they can fulfill their dream of winning this super bowl.

I pray he gets Knocked down and beat up till

He has a meltdown on the sideline. I pray him and Belly are holding each other and shaking with fear of having to send Tom back out to be beat some more. I pray that when the clock hits 0 the NY Football Giants will be hoisting their 4th Lombardi Trophy over their heads. I pray that Jessel is openly crying along with her friends as they realize none of their prays worked. Amen

I loved his comment I saw on the news last night.

“I’m not really paying attention to what they’re saying, but if someone crosses the line Pat Hanlon will tell me about it.” TC’s not worried about this bull, he’s got a game to plan.

Hanlon usually throws up all over that line with his tweets and comments . . . so I wonder what he views as crossing the line

Hanlon crosses the line

so the players don’t have to
