BBI Giants-Redskins Game Review

shame, having to re-watch the dominance over and over again, heh.

worst ones to write are the ones where we get hammered. Not only does it suck to re-watch it again, but you know hardly anyone will bother reading it.

about the up tempo is that Eli is making adjustments before the snap, but instead of rushing to beat the play clock, he has plenty of time to do what he needs.

but it feels like the review ends abruptly.

Maybe a final paragraph to summarize what the game meant and what needs to happen going forward ?

I read them all. Win Lose or Draw...

Kudos to Eric and Connor. Thanks guys for this spot-on review!

Let's hope the Giants keep making it easy for you to write these up :-)

One play I think worth mentioning: the 23 yard run by A. Williams from the Giants 1 when Parker let that punt drop and roll 77 yards. That was a huge play, immediately taking the Giants out of the danger zone and deflating any momentum that the Skins may have had. I love the RBs. Their physical style is disheartening to a defense. This is not a "soft" WCO. This offense still carries on the Giants physical tradition.

If special teams play all season like they did, no real big plays or contribution, but no glaring mistakes, I would be happy with it.

OL turnaround has been stunning, but you are correct to caution about the quality of opponents. That said, how nice it is to see Eli actually have a pocket to work from with confidence. The deep balls will come in due time.

I like it a lot.

My question is what is the implication by citing that teams facing the Eagles have gone 3-13 the following week? Does it seem to mean the Eagles exhaust the defense? If so, then coaches should realize the pattern and give their guys some extra time to recover, IMO.

Line up in press, smack their receivers at the LOS, don't give Foles the easy completion. The age old formula still works.

whether you like it or not, i read even them all, even the bad games despite the pain

And that's the main reason I donate to BBI. Because when the Giants suck I can disappear, but Eric has to stay here and write about it.

I can't get that bad taste out and don't want to see or read about a crappy game only hope for our next game to get here as fast as possible.

I don't get it.

This, yes. Chip Kelly's offense is a lot for any team to deal with with how fast paced it is. A team's defense gets worn down (or so the record indicates) so they're a step below the next week.

Couple that with the fact Washington played NYG just four days after having a shootout with Philly, I believe it played in NYG favor.

Philly's offense ran 58 plays and had 25:12 clock time

Giants's ran 71 plays and 32:34 clock

Both had equal rest. Don't see how that helps either team at all.

not seeing that he's not what he used to be. this is as good as he's looked, maybe ever, with exception of beginning 2010

I'd like to see the matchups in those games. Is it the opponent that week, rather than the fast paced Eagles offense?

In our case, I think the Skins were pretty banged up and probably didn't prepare as well as the Giants (new staff).

I'm not so sure the Eagles are that dominating. First, they played Jacksonville, and I don't think there are too many teams that won't beat the Jaguars (except maybe Oakland). I wouldn't put much stock in that win.

Colts was a close game, Indianapolis won the week after (beating Jacksonville, not sure if it counts :).

Secondly, every single Thursday night match up this year has been a win by at least 2 scores. Maybe one team is better prepared than other, especially with newer coaching vs older coaching?

BTW, and I read em all, win, lose or McNabb.

I have been seeing him turn and chase no one all week.

The icing on the cake was Adrien Robinson’s first NFL catch. Yes, the 15-yarder came in garbage time, but hey, at this point, we’ll take it.

Yes, the JPPoTE is really shaping up.

In other words, the system often makes the line’s performance look better than it really is.

I recall the Giants trying to run quick drops in the 'other' offense, which were routinely stifled by the d-line getting their hands up and knocking the passes down. That hasn't happened so far ...

Quote:

The Washington offense looked downright dysfunctional ...

They looked like the Giants' O last year.

Quote:

I don’t know how Spencer Paysinger is kept off the field.

Some details of why you feel that way, please. I'm not disagreeing ...

WTF is he doing??????

In Cover Two the MLB is usually responsible for center field. That is what 58 Herz was doing. If you look more closely at the tape you will see 26 WLB doing the same.

It may have been Antrel who screwed up for all you know.
