some early remarks: 1) Toomer has to make that catch in first possession, hits him right in #s 2) Hixon is playing with better energy than Burress right now anyway, so we r a stronger team with him in 3) Diehl looked asleep on the sack 4) the Giants got a terrible spot on the FG drive that made it 3-0, why not challenge that spot? 5) Blitz is only way we are gtg pressure, must disrupt Warner or else 3rd and long is a cakewalk for them 6) If the giants can make this a long game they win these types of games in Q4
simply not off enuf pressure from front 4. if we need these blitzes to get pressure we are going to get burned once in a while. I feel like we are playing against brady/moss/welker.
did u read Coughlin's lips? LOL, "what the BROWN are you guys doing iut there" is what he said after the 15 flags went out. Like Goose said, we are lucky it was offsetting, so at least 1st down in red zone. Bradshaw please?!!
if we let them score BEFORE half im gonna go nuts....just a good kickoff woulod be a good start...and i beg SPAGS to not sit back and let them dink and dump all the way down the field
very nice job by Manning, and Toomer decided to hold on to the ball. they have a 1:08 LEFT, no points, no prevent, no soft stuff for garbage time FG please
So far, the play of the game has to be Kenny Phillips causing the Fitzgerald incomplete pass for AZ 3 instead of 7. The Gmen need more pressure from their front four. I sincerely believe that Bradshaw can bust this game open. Has he gotten any touches yet in the offense? None that I can recall. Domenik Hixon is so good on kickoff returns, he is clearly better than Bradshaw by a mile and should be doing those all the time. This is the same guy that ran one back to the house vs the Pats in W17, so it is not as if this is a surprise or anything.
TUCK BABY!!!! nice strip, Warner made his first mistake, held ball too long. Phillips is playing a great game, enables that play to happen because of 3rd and long.
Madison HEDGEBROWN!!! Eli is playing great. takes hit (the SAME identical type of hit that Tuck gets called for personal foul on a few games ago), delivers ball to SMith, then the very next play (great call by Gilbride) goes play action and puts ball on the money, sweet!!!
that is the way to make them pay for the Warner turnover. now no letup by offense and defense, 60 mins, just because u r up 24-12 does not mean we can put the flag in.
special teams again...we gotta get those PENALTIES in order i like the pressure that we are getting on 3rd down, very imoportant...BUTLER catches like someone with NO thumbs
KILLdrive is being his lame self again, friggin guy is the worst...please NO one DEFEND him again...if you are going to defend him EXPLAIN that god darn drive
Nature, totally agree, blatant penalty, not even mild, he's blocking and they gave it to him despite the flag being thrown. Did u see Tuck on the "hokie" wishbone? Tuck and the NFL are too fast for that lame college stuff.
did B-Shaw PORK Gilbrides wife or something? damn get em in the game WARD is not running to inspired right now....look out for the SHOTGUN, coming to a 1st and 10 near you
second and less than 11 yards after a first down pass, almost a mortal lock that Gilbride calls the run. so this time Hixon gets 9 on 1st down, a handoff follows and Ward is stopped for no gain, SHOCKING! Not!
Kudos to Gilbride and Coughlin for not going into the prevent offense, letting the offense try to seal up this win, not being predictable and throwing on some 1st and 2nd downs and mixing it up
Master piece by Manning....accurate, well called and decisive.
D played better than the score, partially de to Refs. But man Tuck is a stud! Can't wait until Robbins hands are healed and as Thomas and Phillips get better and better.
I hate to admit it but Jacobs might just be better than I thought. Running game was not itself and Bradshaw didn't flash much (even though he was put in much of a position with the play calling).
As I called it....put Hixon on Kick offs! Tuck got 1/2 of my call.
This team is just so good. No Jacobs, no Plax...no problem. It just means other guys step up. Great game for Hixon. Why wasnt he returning kickoffs all season? He is so dangerous in that role, and we also see such potential as a receiver too. The two games Plax was out? 10 catches, 159 yards and a TD.
Boss, Smith and Toomer (except for his drop early on) had nice games--Smith's catch on that 30 yard play was a thing of beauty. Even Moss dusts off the cobwebs and has a few catches.
Arizona committed to stopping the run, I even counted 9-10 guys in the box on some plays. We had to win this game in the air...and we did. Eli was absolutely brilliant today. Every throw was on point.
I also thought the defense played well considering the Cards often started possessions at midfield or in Giants territory. Thomas and Phillips had real nice games--Phillips play to breakup the Fitzgerald TD was HUGE, and he also got a few nice hits on Warner on blitzes. Tuck had a huge play with the sack and strip of Warner.
My only complaints were the kickoff coverage and the refs. The only weak link in our team is the kickoff coverage--have to figure out a way to fix that. And the Giants got screwed a few times by the refs. The Ross PI call was a joke, and the non-call on the Urban pick play was awful.
We need some pressure!!!
ReplyDeletelol SHOT will be the death of us
ReplyDeleteshotgun
ReplyDeletesee what i mean about WARD? that should of been a first no moves
ReplyDeletedamn BUTLER you have to catch that...game changer
ReplyDeleteno JACOBS no PLAX this is gonna be a great test for ELI
ReplyDeletegotta go for it
ReplyDeletei am the only nut here?
ReplyDeleteI'm here but I'm waching the baby so its tough to post
ReplyDeletesome early remarks:
ReplyDelete1) Toomer has to make that catch in first possession, hits him right in #s
2) Hixon is playing with better energy than Burress right now anyway, so we r a stronger team with him in
3) Diehl looked asleep on the sack
4) the Giants got a terrible spot on the FG drive that made it 3-0, why not challenge that spot?
5) Blitz is only way we are gtg pressure, must disrupt Warner or else 3rd and long is a cakewalk for them
6) If the giants can make this a long game they win these types of games in Q4
straight ahead runs for WARD....he is best running straight up the field, that i give him, the outside type runs should be let for #44
ReplyDeleteLOL shotgun again...Gilbride loves the shotgun
ReplyDeleteWard looked good on that drive, gildbride has to stop going shotgun on the 5 all the time
ReplyDeleteNice td answer drive, giants very composed, I'll give ward credit, he got it done
ReplyDeleteYeah we have to get pressure with the front 4 because you can only stop the QUICK SCREENS to those receivers for so long
ReplyDeleteagree about shotgun, too much transparency on playcall, esp that empty backfield.. why do that when your run is so feared?
ReplyDeletesaw that one early...guys got out of there lanes on the kickoff
ReplyDeleteugh need better kickoff coverage
ReplyDeletekick off killed us, what a waste
ReplyDeletebrown brown brown
ReplyDeleteFootball is a game of field position can't let them start at midfield
Not sure why caughlin would go with the weaker leg in this game
simply not off enuf pressure from front 4. if we need these blitzes to get pressure we are going to get burned once in a while. I feel like we are playing against brady/moss/welker.
ReplyDeleteall he had to do was CUT BACK lol lateral movement....
ReplyDeleteboss has to catch that, that was a drop
ReplyDelete2 drops
ReplyDeletejust rewound both plays those were 2 drops
ReplyDeletethat is going to kill us
ReplyDeleteit did not look like DRC tipped the ball, just looked Hixon missed it in endzone, gotta get 7 off that Hixon runback to 16 yard line
ReplyDeletestupid stupid penalty by ohara
ReplyDeleteGoing to give them the ball at midfield again
btw, that is the second personal foul on O'Hara this year, both AFTER the play is over
ReplyDeletemidfield...the small thing dude, remember what i always say about us keeping teams in games, we so it the best
ReplyDeletewe are not making them earn there points...
ReplyDeleteO'Hara cost us field position and that FG
ReplyDeleteAwesome stand by the D
ReplyDeletePhillips is a beast!
Pierce hit Boldin like a truck!
HIXON is gonna make me have a heart attack
ReplyDeleteboth teams SP stinking it up...HIXON should have 2 returns
ReplyDelete15 more yards OMG
ReplyDeleteplay fake bootleg pass to boss
ReplyDeleteI love that play
They should run it way more often in short yardage
did u read Coughlin's lips? LOL, "what the BROWN are you guys doing iut there" is what he said after the 15 flags went out. Like Goose said, we are lucky it was offsetting, so at least 1st down in red zone. Bradshaw please?!!
ReplyDeleteno more Dave MotherBrowning FGs
ReplyDeleteshotgun again what the...
ReplyDeletethats should of been the first down call
ReplyDeleteif we let them score BEFORE half im gonna go nuts....just a good kickoff woulod be a good start...and i beg SPAGS to not sit back and let them dink and dump all the way down the field
ReplyDeletevery nice job by Manning, and Toomer decided to hold on to the ball. they have a 1:08 LEFT, no points, no prevent, no soft stuff for garbage time FG please
ReplyDeletei think KICKOFF is going to be a problem all day
ReplyDeletewe has this pressure been?
ReplyDeleteTuck is held on almost every play
ReplyDeletehow much time do they get?
ReplyDeleteeither holding or an illegal hands to the face call
ReplyDeletethis kid cant get a break
So far, the play of the game has to be Kenny Phillips causing the Fitzgerald incomplete pass for AZ 3 instead of 7. The Gmen need more pressure from their front four.

ReplyDeleteno reason why we shouldn't come out and pound the ball
ReplyDeletepressure look like it is on the way
ReplyDeletegotta get stops on third down
ReplyDeletethats the KURT WARNER i remember....ANDY i do believe you called that earlier...he owes you one more
ReplyDeleteTUCK BABY!!!! nice strip, Warner made his first mistake, held ball too long. Phillips is playing a great game, enables that play to happen because of 3rd and long.
ReplyDeletefirst play go for the KILL but GILBRIDE wont do it...
ReplyDeleteTuck is either gtg held or doubled, so when they stunt him, all he needs is the time to go all the way around and create the havoc.
ReplyDeleteWard needs to run up the field why are they callig outside runs
ReplyDeleteHOLY DAVE BROWN he caught it
ReplyDeleteMadison HEDGEBROWN!!! Eli is playing great. takes hit (the SAME identical type of hit that Tuck gets called for personal foul on a few games ago), delivers ball to SMith, then the very next play (great call by Gilbride) goes play action and puts ball on the money, sweet!!!
ReplyDeletethat is the way to make them pay for the Warner turnover. now no letup by offense and defense, 60 mins, just because u r up 24-12 does not mean we can put the flag in.
ReplyDeletethat is the SECOND pick he dropped
ReplyDeletespecial teams again...we gotta get those PENALTIES in order i like the pressure that we are getting on 3rd down, very imoportant...BUTLER catches like someone with NO thumbs
ReplyDeleteyes, Nature, second Butler, right in his hands. that bad snap easily cost the Cards 3 points, Rackers can make that, now they had to punt
ReplyDeletei would love to see us get the running gane going with #44 and
ReplyDeletewhy are we not running the ball?
ReplyDeleteKILLdrive is being his lame self again, friggin guy is the worst...please NO one DEFEND him again...if you are going to defend him EXPLAIN that god darn drive
ReplyDeletelol we have to be the worst at gettin the live ball (fumbles, tip passes)
ReplyDeletewhat i say about keeping teams in games...make them earn it, we have given them all this drive
ReplyDeletesloppiness, penalties. looked like Tuck was coming out for rest, not for a shoulder injury, but goose must know more than us
ReplyDeletethat was a clear pick PLAY holy shit
ReplyDeleteNature, totally agree, blatant penalty, not even mild, he's blocking and they gave it to him despite the flag being thrown. Did u see Tuck on the "hokie" wishbone? Tuck and the NFL are too fast for that lame college stuff.
ReplyDeleterefs are killing us on this drive
ReplyDeleteFirst the garbage pi call on ross now the no call on an obvious pick play by AZ
bad call
ReplyDeletethis is some garbage....
ReplyDeletethis is some BS...icant believe some of the calls being made, and missed.....
ReplyDeletethat was a lets keep the game close drive by the refs
ReplyDeletewe need a game killing 9 min td drive right here
ReplyDeletedid B-Shaw PORK Gilbrides wife or something? damn get em in the game WARD is not running to inspired right now....look out for the SHOTGUN, coming to a 1st and 10 near you
ReplyDeletesecond and less than 11 yards after a first down pass, almost a mortal lock that Gilbride calls the run. so this time Hixon gets 9 on 1st down, a handoff follows and Ward is stopped for no gain, SHOCKING! Not!
ReplyDeletewe need a nice LENTHY drive and get at least 3
ReplyDeletethats ws a good play call finally
ReplyDeleteleft end was offsides on that play
ReplyDeleteMANNING has been simply outstanding today! TD. That drive was all Manning.
ReplyDeleteThis is why we keep harping on the fact that the Giants can (a) score 40 pts per game (b) they need to win against this AZ team.
ReplyDeletewe cannot let them get a quick strike type TD...make them drive and earn every yard...hopefully we can get some pressure...
ReplyDeleteOff the subject......WHAT THE HELL IS ANDY REID DOING? lol thats gos for him....that game in a few weeks looking more and more like a V
the cardinals left side has been in the nz 3 times this game and no flag
ReplyDeleteBoss is the man that was a hell of a catch
We need a stop here still a lot of time left
10 mins to go in the game and we just now getting B-shaw
ReplyDeleteHixon has #1 receiver potential
ReplyDeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDeleteI thought leading with your helmet is a personal foul? The ref was standing right there! Am I missing something?
ReplyDeletethat his on boss was the same type of hit we get flagged for
ReplyDeleteGiants r not gtg the calls today, agreed, pretty bad.
ReplyDeletehey ANDY i see the neon lights over #44's head
ReplyDeletethere is the same Question you always ask andy....whats wrong with you offense WINNING the game instead of depending on your Dfense
ReplyDeletedid they miss another call?
ReplyDeleteshould of went for the 4th and 1.....pats would of.....colts would of....that is 1 thing about us, we dont take risk when its worth it
ReplyDeletenow we are going to get agressive? run the damn ball
ReplyDeletewin the game here O!!!!
ReplyDeleteKudos to Gilbride and Coughlin for not going into the prevent offense, letting the offense try to seal up this win, not being predictable and throwing on some 1st and 2nd downs and mixing it up
ReplyDeletemake the FG and win the game, that would be 37 points, what you need to beat to the Cardinals, respect for their offense.
ReplyDeleteWonder says to go for it, on 4th and 2", not fourth and1, 2 inches, so go for it. I disagree, kick the fg.
ReplyDeletegame over when lit
ReplyDeleteMaster piece by Manning....accurate, well called and decisive.
ReplyDeleteD played better than the score, partially de to Refs. But man Tuck is a stud! Can't wait until Robbins hands are healed and as Thomas and Phillips get better and better.
