Any word on DRC or Apple?

andrew_nyg : 9/26/2016 3:28 pm
Looking for updated injury news.

Last I heard Apple had a hammy and DRC had a knee.

Any update info would be appreciated.

Thanks!
I've got two hammy's

Thought DRC had a groin?
NY Post says they will be out for Minny  
upstatenyg : 9/26/2016 3:39 pm : link
Do not figure to see Rodgers-Cromartie, Apple or Darian Thompson for Monday night’s game in Minneapolis. Apple has a strained hamstring. Those do not heal in a matter of days. Thompson is dealing with a left foot issue, and the feeling is he will not be ready to return this week. A source with knowledge of Thompson’s injury told The Post there is not much concern about a long-term absence and a visit to see specialist Dr. Robert Anderson in North Carolina on Monday was more about due diligence than worry about extensive damage. That visit assured Thompson there is no significant injury and he should be back in a few weeks. Without three of their top defensive backs, the Giants will have to rely even more heavily on veteran Leon Hall, who has been an important and versatile addition but might be over-extended if his snaps increase dramatically.

We just can't go a year with relatively few injuries. I know this goes for everyone, but I'd like players on other teams not being injured either.

Well thats an odd request
losing yesterday  
JonC : 9/26/2016 3:57 pm : link
will be the game you point to in December if this team's clawing for a playoff spot. A golden opportunity at home versus a divisional rival, and they couldn't give the game to their opponent fast enough.

Vikes are going to be a difficult matchup.
Should they put Hunter  
andrew_nyg : 9/26/2016 3:59 pm : link
Michael Hunter back on the active roster this week?

Maybe he takes Vareen's spot.
ah, an old Giants staple - the injury cluster  
Greg from LI : 9/26/2016 4:00 pm : link
Does it always have to be a bunch of guys at the same position? Cmon!
I dont see the Giants winning this game  
prdave73 : 9/26/2016 4:08 pm : link
without those players. In order to win against Minny without key players you need great coaching staffs that can gameplan well and the Giants dont have that so yeah..
Apple and Thompson  
averagejoe : 9/26/2016 4:08 pm : link
are already injured. It is comical. I don't care how talented they are. I don't care about ceilings or potential. Can the Giants EVER draft a player that can STAY ON THE DAMN FIELD ???

Nice to know we have two more talented part time players on the exercise bikes.
Well Minny doesn't have Peterson or Bridgewater.

Absolutely. Which is why I don't understand the notion some people express that late-season games are somehow more important.

The Giants looked like a pretty stupid team yesterday, to me. And I include lots of coaches and players in that assessment. You can't build smarts as a season goes on. You have to be smart on Opening Day, or else ridiculous losses like this one to inferior teams could cost you dearly.

Inability for several seasons to put away teams is the problem. Good teams find ways to do so more often than not.
Injuries seem to happen at the wrong time  
joe48 : 9/26/2016 4:30 pm : link
Giants will have to open up the offensive playbook and pass the ball downfield to our playmakers a bit more to help out the defense.
We definitely have the weapons.
The Vikings  
Old Dirty Beckham : 9/26/2016 4:35 pm : link
scored 22 points yesterday. 2 off a safety. 6 off a PR for a TD. There longest drive was 47 yards.

There offense isnt good. They're rushing under 3 yard per carry. Bradford has been sacked 6X in two games and threw under 200 yards yesterday.

The Giants should be able to keep their offense in relative check, injuries or not.

That game will be about how the Giants handle the Vikings upfront.
The NYG likely aren't winning  
The_Boss : 9/26/2016 4:39 pm : link
With or without these guys playing.

Could not agree more, it is why it was such a frustrating loss
As the game  
Fish : 9/26/2016 5:10 pm : link
wore on yesterday, seeing more and more of Wynn and Wade etc, I started to get that here we go again with the injuries. Hate them and why do they cripple us.

The Giants Defense with D Thompson, Apple, DRC is much much better than one with Wade in it. Its a killer and that next man up crap does not mean shit when the next man is not nearly as good as the others.

what the hell does likely have to do with it?

Arizona - Buffalo; Pittsburgh-Philadelphia; Minnesota - Carolina; Rams - Bucs

I will hold out hope for a win, but...  
gmen4ever : 9/26/2016 7:59 pm : link
Wade is so bad, just awful. Reminds me of Elvis Toast Patterson!
DRC  
Possum : 9/26/2016 8:14 pm : link
A very talented player but it seems like he gets hurt constantly. No turnovers produced by defense in three games unless this changes there is no way this will be a successful season.

A ten-year veteran with a Giants SB ring? I'll take it.
Here is the deal from where I sit  
idiotsavant : 9/26/2016 9:39 pm : link
You need to take some chances with our front 4 on D. The thing with the pigskins is that just when we might have cut loose even more, two more DBs went out. Sometimes there may be a tendency to play "safe" when missing players ...but how do you want to loose?

As always, the next game us in the hands of our DL. Cut them loose. Dare them.to run into a pass rush.
Vikes' defense is the matchup problem for NYG  
JonC : 9/27/2016 10:11 am : link
We're not beating them if we're turning over the football, dropping passes that hit us in the hands, and generally finding ways to hand the game to them.

Agreed


We aren't beating anyone if we have turnovers and penalties.
