should be dragged out of the Giants facility in a straight jacket tomorrow morning.
You have to be clinically (if not criminally) sick to have this guy as your 5th or 6th corner, let alone on the field playing meaningful snaps on defense.
The guy is slow as molasses, cant cover or tackle anyone, and never makes a play on the ball. He can't even get in position to commit a penalty because he gets burned so badly.
Does anyone know who within Giants walls continues to protect/support/defend/promote this guy???
I dunno... This one is kinda on point. I mean as soon as he is on the field other teams go right at him. He didnt cover Jackson for more than two yards on the TD.
What's next, bitching about the talent on the practice squad?

You're completely lost FatMan. The whole point is he isn't the 5th or 6th CB. He has been starting and was the first guy in to replace both Prince and DRC and been horrible.
Hosley.....Bromley....Herzlich......McBride....Wynn.
We need someone to step up their game.
It seems that more guys regress,than improve
He was only in for DRC because he was hurt.
He is a reserve CB. I think he's a bad player, but most 5th CB's are bad players, hence, why they are 5th CB's.

He's not their 5th or 6th cb. Never has been.
Picks fights and wrong as usual. Fucking useless.
Nice cherry picking on that post.
So, when they had Thurmond, Bowman and Jackson, Hosely was in front of them?
Save it with the "always wrong" shit.
Why don't you start another thread listing nearly every player on the team calling them subs and practice squad guys.
Better yet, do it for the other 32 teams and see exactly how much you know about the rest of the league.

You did the same fucking thing saying that Hosely has never been a 5th CB. But then again, you'd have to say I was cherry picking because I'm apparently always wrong.
A bunch of gleeful fucking people on this site after a loss.

Sadly I pay attention to your posts a lot because you're always inciting arguments on threads. You're almost always wrong, like you were here. Hosely is our #3 CB. Has been all season. Just do us a favor and stick occupying the trolls for us on game threads. That's the only "value" you bring here.

I don't think you know what cherry picking means.

I don't know who you are addressing but you're proving my point and making a fool of yourself in the process. Yes, last year he was their 6th CB, in fact he was so bad that they didn't even dress him during the 2nd half I feel the season and even after the CBs were ravaged with injuries, guys literally signed off the street (Harris, Brown, etc.) were playing in front of him. Fast forward to 2015 and not only is Hosely invited back to training camp AND makes the 53 man roster despite being outplayed by others but he is inexplicably playing (at times starting!) during inportant games and costing them dearly in each of them!
It's unbelievable, unprecedented, quite frankly unheard of.
But hey, we lost today so why don't you pull the usual "the organization and everything about it sucks" schtick.

My God, you're stupid. I wasn't cherry picking, I was attacking your post that hes a 5th or 6th corner. He hasn't been a 5th or 6th corner this entire season. That's not cherry picking. Cherry picking is picking one guy (Wynn) out of a bunch mentioned that have been here a while.
You fucking dolt.
Two weeks of preparation my ass. I am so pissed off about this game. What a waste.
That is your statement.

No offense FatMan but not only are you wrong but you keep digging yourself into a bigger hole here. I know we're al frustrated right now but don't embarrass yourself completely.
That is your statement.
But hey, it would be tough to say I pick fights and am always wrong - which is really what you were trying to do.

Hahahaha! Now you're gonna say you meant that 9:47 as a guy who was ONCE a 5th or 6th corner, in a different season?
Nygmen...too late.
And coming in it was a longshot he was going to make the team. But injuries to a few guys. McBride and Wade turning into nickel corners gave him a spot on the team.
It was stated above that Hosely has started this year and has cost us in every game. Pure hyperbole.
My point is that bitching about a reserve player is a low bar for analysis.
Kannell, you knew that. But as usual, you just take a potshot because you'd rather join the group on Sunday nights that has all the fucking answers on why we are a mediocre team and revel in the bitch and whine fest.
So BA HA HA all night, because that's apparently what you fucking do when the team loses.
at no time is any DB in the entire NFL covering DJ deep alone... and while he did quite poor... he is #3 on the pecking order in terms of blame on that play.
when having to play the role he is capable of.... 3rd or 4th DB... he has been serviceable.
Of course it was. He was deep safety who had over the top help. Doesnt excuse Hosley from his shitty play, but there is a reason why players have help.
This +1

Funny coming from the king of potshots on here. You embarrassed yourself on this thread. I'm bowing out. Arguing, then having to define terms to you on top of that has been exhausting.
Hosley has been lower on our depth chart, but this year, he's #3 and not because of injuries. He was in because of injuries on that specific play, but he's still our #3 cb.
We need an upgrade at CB (not our top 2, obviously). The league has changed, as I doubt anyone would argue, and you simply need more than 2 good cbs. I mean, our depth chart at CB is awful and Prince tends to have some injuries throughout a season. There are a few positions on this team where the lack of depth is extremely apparent. And you have to expect that they are going to see the field. Granted, that's what separates a great team from a middle of the pack team, which we are. This is an 8-8 team. As most things in life, things aren't as bad as they seem and they're never as good as they seem! :) For what its worth - 8 and 8 might get us into the post season and then the Super Bowl is up for grabs, as it is every year!
However (and this is somewhat irrelevant to the point that the OP is trying to make), a pass rush changes how our corners look. But Hosley as our number 3, Oy!
It was like watching a commuter train go by and going - "oh well, look at that, hope our guy catches up ! "
Better than the broken record bitching and moaning about the officiating.
...why can't we just love one another?
I didn't realize Reese was responsible for cutting players. Thanks for letting me know!
Hard to believe you are stupid enough to believe the coaches don't make the cut-down and playing decisions.
Hosley came to camp on the bubble, not e expected to make the team. Spags identified him as a talent worthy of reclamation. Hosley took the opportunity and worked his way into the 53. Against all odds he won the job.
The fact that he got beat for a touchdown pass doesn't change the fact that the coaches opinion is that he won the job based on merit.
