I haven't been excited at all. I figured maybe its because I was getting older or whatever. But then all of the sudden 3 hours ago I saw a promo for the game and now I am pumped, butterflies and everything. Let's get em Giants!
I expect the Giants to pound the ball with their running attack, win the turnover battle and make enough plays to win.
20-17.
I too expect the Giants to run well, take what the defense gives them in the passing game, NOT turn it over, and do enough in all other areas to eek out a close win.
Sidenote: Colts DE Robert Mathis out for the year with achilles tear. We won't be facing this stud pass rusher after-tal.
Best of luck to the team tonight. May they get the win and stay injury free.
I've been bitchin about the o-line and Reece all off season but now it's time for me to just be a Giants fan and support the team all the way. Go TC and the New York Giants!
The DT thing is puzzling, last year had great success with 4 DT, and they only activated 5 LB last year, so essentially taking the extra ST backup LB over a guy who will probably factor into a rotation at DT and has pass rushing skill, yep.
Swing T roster hole exposed here as well, Brown is not nfl caliber so inactive. Mosley/Jerry would proabably play RT if Pugh went down and Pugh would move over to LT and the other two again play RT if Beatty went down. Dangerous situation.
Across seasons these choices by coaching staff add up for Giants teams over the years that generally have low margin for error.
Seattle played Sherman on most of their ST with the big investment they made in him as well. You can play your starters there, i mean its pretty much only PR coverage/return with all the touchbacks (especially if we took McManus).
he's a long termer here, but why wouldn't you prefer McClain with all his experience and vet savvy in there? Remember, they're game-planning now. Rather have JM in there at this point

he cant play anymore, Kennard is a much better player...
not 100% and given his already limited talent we sat him.
We have to pray we don't sustain in-game injuries or it could be a long long night for us!
Brown was probable and practiced all 3 days, they decided to not activate him and decided they were better off with going with Mosley/Jerry (not much T expierence, Mosley zero) at RT and Pugh at LT in case of injuries than actually give Brown, a guy who has nfl game expierence at LT, playing time.
Kennard will play a lot regardless of McClain starting Â
There is no doubt in my mind that Kennard will be starting post-bye for sure if not earlier. They will work him in slowly. He can rush the passer and you MUST have those guys on the field on any clear passing situations. McClain is no pass rusher.
Has good game plan...we beat them last year
w bad dbs...I think we will be surprised at
Macs playbook... Washington may become
A star tonight....run game will be vital

Well that explains a lot.

Jon Beason will start at MLB, Jameel McClain at SLB, and John Jerry at RG ... #Giants lineup

Snyder,wynn,bromley, and Brown are healthy inactives
If that + JPP is all-pro form, barring significant injuries, we'll be in the playoffs.
BLESSED
???
Williams is the starting WLB, why would you think he is going to the bench?
Have fun. Good luck to us all.
20-17.

Kennard will get his time eventually.
And williams is not going to the bench. He's a good coverage LB. The best they have by far.

Should surprise no one that McClain is starting.

Do you deny that he looked quite good run blocking vs the Pats? I know it was against backups but he was destroying guys.

You know this how?

mclain should only be a 2 down player most of the time
