Victor Cruz
Robert Ayers
Jon Beason
JPP (obviously won't play)

And who knows on these guys with respect to their injuries/tendinitis, etc.

Richburg

I wouldn't be surprised if the Giants  
mfsd : 8/31/2015 1:30 pm : link
sneak up on the Cowboys in week 1.

Our offense hasn't rolled out the full package yet for obvious reasons, but I could see Eli and ODB having a field day

45-42 Giants. Fuck the Cowboys.

so the offense is going to go from struggling to put 3 consecutive plays together to get a 1st down, to scoring 45 points on opening night ...

interesting ...
Hey Hem roid answer the question  
nygiants16 : 8/31/2015 1:35 pm : link
since preseason translates to regular season:

does that mean the seahawks are going to struggle?

Does that mean Peyton is going to struggle?

Does that mean Aaron Rodgers will continue to struggle?

Does that mean AP is going to be terrible?

If preseason meant what was going to happen in the regular season, the Giants would not have won the superbowl in 2007 and 2011...
Eli will have 300+ yds

the preseason is intended for building continuity and learning tendencies amongst teammates ... the final score is irrelevant ...

its a dress rehearsal to see where your projected 1st teamers grade out and individual analysis takes place ...

based upon the 1st 3 preseason games, there is not much difference from the 2014 team and where we left off 6-10, to this projected team ... who I feel, where fare worse ...

you said that preseason directly correlates to regular season play...

so i asked you are those teams going to struggle as well because they struggled in preseason or is it just the Giants?

Forget about last year they are different teams last year means nothing now....

REGULAR SEASON SWITCH ON ...

this team is struggling, again ... we struggled in 2014, struggled in 2013 and the pattern points to struggling in 2015 ...

again, there is no continuity in any phase of this team ...
I predict the Giants will lose the opener...  
EricJ : 8/31/2015 1:48 pm : link
not because of injuries and not because Dallas is better. Simply because it seems that the Giants tend to get a slow start. That is the perception anyway. As if we are not truly ready to start the regular season.

Why are you ignoring my question....I am not talking about the giants

i am talking about the other teams i have mentioned...

are those teams going to struggle as well since they have struggled in preseason???

Also if there is no switch like you say then how come the giants won the superbowl in 07 and 11?

I do not care about those other teams, I do not follow them as I do my Giants ... I do not know what there rosters consist of personnel wise ...

I can tell you this much, watching a handful of other games this weekend, most teams 2nd/3rd teamers play with more effort, instinct and want to win than our 1st team ...
lol way to completely dodge the quesiton  
nygiants16 : 8/31/2015 1:55 pm : link
so you do not look bad...

fine then i will reowrd the quesiton, how did the giants win the superbowl in 07 and 11 when they struggled early in both those seasons...

like you siad there is no switch so how did they win??

according to you there is no switch so what happened?

there was evidence of continuity in both 07' and 11' ... there was the right mix of talent, leadership and luck ... there is no formula ...

Lol you are completely changing your argument as you go...

First it was if a player struggles in preseason he can not turn it on for the regular season...

then it was a team can not turn on a switch and be a good team for the regular season...

now it is ok to struggle as long as there is continuity from one year to the next....

what continuity was there from 06 to 07? strahan nearly retired because he thought the team was going to suck and have to rebuild...

you are completely making shit up to make your argument work but it is falling apart...

and i am not even saying this team is going to be good or not  
nygiants16 : 8/31/2015 2:05 pm : link
all i am saying is no one knows what this team is going to be based on preseason....

if the team is 0-3 or 0-4 and has looked like shit i will be right there saying this team is finished and it is time to rebuild and tear it down...

Gotcha now if the team starts off the season playing well are you still going to come in with your one liners or you actually going to praise the team?

Only problem with your theory is the "reality" you're referring to is an undetermined future state of this team. There is no reality yet, you doofus. This is the NFL and plenty of teams surprise the league and come out with good seasons. My opinion is the Giants actually have a very good starting lineup, but have some of the worst depth of the NFL, and in a league with endless injuries and more regular rotations from backups, we won't have the talent to stick with Philly and Dallas. I think we're looking at an 8-8 football team.

But that is an opinion. It is not reality, nor is what you or anyone else on this board thinks. In 2007, would it have been rooted in reality to predict the Giants would win the Super Bowl after being embarrassed the opening two weeks of the season? And with that, would I have been a pussy who can't handle reality if I thought the team could on a run? What fucking nonsense. Shit changes. Players grow... and with that, some players regress.

I don't think someone is a pussy if they note that the Giants have had an enormous amount of injuries compared to the rest of the league in recent years. That, unlike your declaration of a reality that doesn't even exist yet, is not my opinion. That's actually something that's rooted in fact. What a pussy I am for being upset about this fact regarding my favorite football team.

I will be rooting hard every week as I have done for the past 30yr's regardless, but at some point you have to start looking at things for what they are ...
No you are not looking at things for what they are  
nygiants16 : 8/31/2015 2:14 pm : link
you are looking at things at how YOU think it is going to happen....

If you looked at it for how they are, you would say it is preseason and the team is still 0-0, they have struggled so there is reason to worry but the season has not started yet...
The only fact about this season  
nygiants16 : 8/31/2015 2:17 pm : link
is no one knows what is going to happen,

The team can go 0-16, 1-15,2-14,3-13,4-12,5-11,6-10,7-9,8-8,9-7,10-6,-11-5,12-4,13-3,14-2,15-1,16-0...no one knows...

so to say this team is done and is going to suck based on preseason is simply wrong....

you could say there are signs that are troubling and this team needs to get it fixed quick, absolutely...but you cant say this team is going to suck simply based on preseason...

and when the season does start what evidence has been viewed by the eye-ball that indicates any sort of promise ?
I never once said there is promise  
nygiants16 : 8/31/2015 2:26 pm : link
wha ti said was that preseason means nothing and that when the season starts everyone starts 0-0 that is fact...

if they struggle and go 0-3 or 0-4 i will be right there with you killing them...

But for now i look it at as the season has not started yet, yes they have struggled but when the bullets fly we will see what kind of team the Giants are, for now it is all prediction based off of glorified scrimmages...

Wait until Dallas wins a few games. Their OLine will have 5 hall of famers. Romo will be the bestest QB ever. Dez is the most passion filled player and is a great teammate because of it...

Same song and dance every year. And they are pretty healthy outside the CB position. If we were just missing our safeties and had Beatty, JPP, Cruz, Beason, etc... healthy, there is no doubt we could beat them. We went toe to toe with them twice last year and we sucked.
