Who do you think gets the start if Bradshaw doesn't play?

NY+Giants=NYG · 10-19-2012, 01:56 PM

Brown and Wilson combo. And I think Bradshaw will play and start though.

Rosebud · 10-19-2012, 09:12 PM

I really hope this is like the Browns game, where despite coming out flat, we get our **** together and smoke them.

BamaFalcon59 · 10-20-2012, 01:43 AM

Hall of fame hoe! Any questions who starts?

Also, Wilson really shows how irrelevant combine 40 yd times can be. Kid is stupid fast on the field.

Didn't he run like a 4.4? That's pretty fast either way lol. But, anyway, Coughlin does not start rookies... unless the situation is dire. If Bradshaw doesn't play, I think it's safe to say Andre Brown will start but the carries will be split evenely between him and Wilson.

He was still a great pick, although I didn't expect it.

We need to crush Bob and the Redskins. 0-2 in the division can really come back to haunt us. Tomorrow's game is more important than it seems.

BamaFalcon59 · 10-20-2012, 03:34 PM

He ran like a 4.48 I think, which is good but not great.

He ran a 4.41, which i think is what Aaron Ross ran, but I agree with you Bama, it is apparent that his 40 time is not indicative of how fast he is. He plays much faster.

Says 4.49 but yeah, point stands.

He reminds me a lot of Chris Johnson/Jamal Charles. Actually more like Jamal Charles than Chris Johnson. Johnson was a much more patient runner and his cuts were so sharp.

I hope we can re-sign both Cruz and Nicks next year. If those 2 come back, we bring Bennett back, and Wilson and Randle progress the way I anticipate them to progress over the course of the season, we could have a scary offense in 2014.

Especially if they use the next draft to shore up the OL a little.

Its funny you say that because he reminds me a lot of those guys too, I compared Chris Johnson to Wilson w/ scott's notes and they were very similar players. CJ Spiller is another guy I think he compares to and it wasnt a surprise that we picked him because we were looking at Spiller a year or two before.

Nicks should be offered a lesser contract than he probably wants due to the fact he gets hurt every god damn year! Sometimes I forget he is 24 years old, because he has the body of a player about to hit 30. I actually want Bennett back no matter what. He should be priority due to the value of his position.

I agree, Bennett's blocking is phenomenal and he is more than good enough in the pass game

Giantsfan1080 · 10-21-2012, 11:06 AM

Nicks still plays 14 games a year. Who cares if he's banged up when he still produces?

I do and he is 100% when he does play. It's not like once he comes back he is 100% fine and healthy. It's always a nagging injury which stays all season. He is like the Justin Tuck of the offense. Let's see how he does now with this foot and knee issues as the season continues on.

That's the perfect TE for this system. A great blocker and someone who can do damage in passing game. It's a big time featured position or valued position in this system because you basically have to be half offensive linemen, half WR. He fits that bill and does both very well. You have to re-sign him, and keep some stability.

He just needs to not pull stuff like stopping short on a route, that just isnt acceptable. Otherwise I think the guy fits in very well with our locker room and team.

Giantsfan1080 · 10-21-2012, 03:09 PM

That just happened.

BaLLiN · 10-21-2012, 03:10 PM

cruz shouldve had two more touchdowns, but thank god for the win

scottyboy · 10-21-2012, 03:11 PM

and i'm ok with it because we always play down to our opponent and Eli was off today and I'm sure he'll turn it around. Get it out of the way now and against a team we can do things like that against

I ran to my weights and started doing curls the instant they scored that last TD and give Eli the ball. Still don't believe in superstitions, but...Giants!

You do know this team is aging us at least 5 years.

That's being generous. Between this team and the Rangers, I don't doubt that I have a heart attack at a very young age, but it's whatever I still Bleed Blue!

It's not nerves, it's the excitement.

Cruz is a monster.
