But this was not the case. REmember in the SB in the 4th otr on 3rd down, eli escapes the pass rush rolls to his left and there in single coverage is plax. The correct adjustment is for plax to go deep. Manning does what he is supposed to and throws long, but plax slows down and instead of a big play, it is an incomplete and everyone blames manning. But if plax does what he has been coached to do, it is a monster play, maybe even a TD. But certainly a 1st down. The giants led 10-7 at that point. Who is to say how the game would eventually unfold, but it was a mental error by plax.Crazed Giant fanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02195510243635947494noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4126451417395202308.post-15146701184331310462009-06-14T08:58:15.011-04:002009-06-14T08:58:15.011-04:00Pastime, all I can think of is Manning getting sac...Pastime, all I can think of is Manning getting sacked EIGHT times by the Cowboys in that PB-less stretch run. Where were the flares and screens to stop that avalanche? Too little, too late. They called #44 for a screen at the end of Q3, it gained 16 yards. One screen. AZ called SIX in one game vs the Eagles in the NFC Championship. I do not know if the Giants had more than 3 to 5 screens in the final 6 GAMES w/o Burress.Andy F.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07020742034297033233noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4126451417395202308.post-89537674110266274882009-06-13T23:16:18.883-04:002009-06-13T23:16:18.883-04:00Teams like the Bears, Jets & Bucs could view t...Teams like the Bears, Jets & Bucs could view the latest continuance as an opportunity to swoop in and make Burress a contract offer knowing the legal uncertainty as well as not knowing how NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell will react to the latest news.<br /><br />Goodell faces a dilemma. Burress technically is guilty of nothing but being stupid enough to shoot himself in the leg. But Goodell typically waits for the legal process to play out before doling out discipline. The Burress case so clearly violates the NFL's Personal Conduct Policy (a bullet wound doesn't lie) that allowing the wide receiver to play this season as his lawyers drag out the court process risks making a mockery of the league's discipline policy.<br /><br />The commissioner doesn't need a conviction to take action. <br /><br />But will he?<br /><br />Or....<br /><br />How bad do the Bears, Bucs & Jets want to win? <br /><br />There in lies the rub!Mitchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02151576898703507305noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4126451417395202308.post-13900606360135294452009-06-13T13:19:00.583-04:002009-06-13T13:19:00.583-04:00I don't know who is to blam for last years fal...I don't know who is to blam for last years falure more, Gilbrown or Plax.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
