I agree BBD. I posted something the other day about this but what the hell happened between the 49'ers game and the Eagles game? It's like the team just turned themselves into the off position. I don't really understand it.

Especially if he needs surgery.

That surgery bothers me.. I almost want to say don't re-sign anyone who is damaged goods. This goes with Hixon or even TT if he wants a lot of money. All these guys with messed up knees probably won't be the same. I'd rather sign or draft healthier players.

I like MM. I like him when we drafted him. He is a homerun threat, but I think this system doesn't help him. You know how I feel about this offensive system. I would rather sign Turner as an OC. Bring the Air C to NY!!!! That's my 2nd favorite system to the Air Raid!

My expectations for this season did a 180 after the Eagles game. I just don't see it this year, it's not our year.

Let's enjoy the ride for what it is, and see what happens. But I'm not expecting much. I just don't think we have the DC to outcoach anyone, and I think our entire team is too finesse to do any damage this season.

I predict another beat down. I have zero trust in our defense and Fewell now! If it gets ugly early, I expect another, "here we go again" mentality with our defense. I wouldn't be surprised if they quit again. If that happens watch for the crowd to boo and do other stuff. I can see this game getting ugly.

Yeah, I was talking to my friend about this game earlier n she's not into football at all, but as I told her about how we're going to get blown I found myself believing more and more that this is going to be close. God I how we win out our last 4 games.

Giantsfan1080 · 12-04-2011, 07:14 PM

Well I was right. I'm heartbroken right now though.

I'm not. Actually, this game really encouraged me. Will come back with more thoughts tomorrow because it's two AM over here, but the way the players fought their asses off and played hard all night really encouraged me.

And btw, I remember a certain 38-35 loss to an undefeated team that propelled us towards a pretty great stretch of games :)

The only thing with that was we were in the playoffs already at this point.

Yeah, but I'm just trying to stay positive I guess. It's still in our hands. With everyone else in the playoff race losing as well, we are still very much in both the Divisional race and Wildcard race. I think we have a real shot at the playoffs, and once we get in everything can happen.

We've shown we can hang with anyone (except the Saints).

Ohh I'm sorry but I'm also positive as anything. Just a win we could have had which would have been amazing. We can beat the Cowboys and the WC opened up again with the way everything fell today.

LTgiants · 12-04-2011, 07:57 PM

Even if we make the playoffs we probably wont do anything. Unless Perry Fewell gets abducted by aliens and they re program him into a competent DC. Then maybe we have a shot. That is of course if Gilbride doesn't mess it up which is always possible.

I disagree with that. If we did make the playoffs the only 2 teams we would have trouble with are the Saints and Packers.

Odds are if we were in would play the Saints in the first round and lose. Or in the event we get a lucky win against a team that isn't the Saints. We would then end up playing the Packers and lose.

Geez you're a

Giantsfan1080 · 12-04-2011, 08:22 PM

Stupid double post.

Jughead10 · 12-04-2011, 08:31 PM

Just get in. You can't count a loss to the Saints. We'd play either the Lions, Bears, or Falcons at home if we get in. Can we beat those teams? Of couse. And then just go from there.

BloodBrother · 12-04-2011, 08:33 PM

Great game guys. Probably the scariest one during this Packers winning streak that dates back to last year. SB was obviously intense but it was never tied. If that went into OT and the Giants won the toss they were taking that game vs the Pack D

still got you guys taking the division. Dallas does not impress me at all. Should have lost last week and lost to the CArds today. Just need to take care of business and win both games vs them. I think the Giants do it

worst game(qb rating wise) for Rodgers this season. Giants and Saints are the 2 teams that worry me heading into the postseason

Ha. You can call it w/e you want but this team is not that 07 team. Everybody can hang their hats on well we lost 38-35 to the Pats and beat them in the SB if they want. They are two different teams. This team is not as tough as that one. 07 had real leaders on that team especially on D.

That team had a much better DC then this current one does. You really want to see Fewell's 3 man rush get destroyed in the playoffs?

Gilbride called probably the best games of his life then. Do you really have the faith he can do something like that again?

We had a much better DC looking back. But at week 12-13 in 2007 we didn't know that.

I can point this out a million times, but you never know. A ******* Todd Collins led Redskins team beat us around this time 4 years ago.

Giantsfan1080 · 12-04-2011, 08:43 PM

I'm not saying we will win the SB if we get in but you just don't know. We certainly have the talent to make a run regardless of our asshole D coordinator. Also, after the last 2 years I just want a playoff game. I miss it.

I think even with the Todd Collins lose. People felt more confident in Spags then they ever felt about Fewell.

This is not the Knicks where oh yay at least we get to watch the team in the playoffs. I would rather have no playoffs then just to watch my team lose a week later.

Ya anything can happen if we can get in and ya lets have blind optimism when this team has shown you no reason to have any.

**** the Knicks. They're a joke. Just get in. In a one game playoff anything can happen. It's not a best of 7 series.

This game is so fickle. Just think, if Matt Dodge punts the ball out of bounds, the Packers probably don't make the playoffs last year. If that happened, are they even on this run this year? You never know.

Just get in.

Correct you are.
