We can start 3-1 - who's stepping up?

ryanmkeane : 9/27/2016 8:44 am
Yes, Sunday's loss was brutal. Now that it's flushed down the toilet, let's make some predictions on a big game/breakout performance for Monday Night.

I'll go with JPP - he has been close this season and getting some pressures. I think he's chomping at the bit, and Bradford is so shaky back there at times. I think he gets 2 sacks and a forced fumble - a big turnover in a key spot.
ok, who ya got

The Offensive Line  
Bluesbreaker : 9/27/2016 9:01 am : link
Better step up because the Vikings can bring it ..
My major concerns:  
Big Blue '56 : 9/27/2016 9:02 am : link
Healthwise, DRC, Apple moving forward. How long will they be out? Vernon, he's playing, but how hurt is he and how does that affect us? How about JPP? He'll play also, but how effective or ineffective will his injury affect performance..

These are huge concerns of mine. Glad we have Leon Hall here..

Not concerned about our O at all
Yeah...kinda T-bones domain  
AnnapolisMike : 9/27/2016 9:03 am : link
Anyway...I do agree that they can win Sunday. Eli is good traditionally good in a dome and he does have offensive weapons. If they lose the turnover battle...they lose the game.

Vikings not a good match up  
averagejoe : 9/27/2016 9:25 am : link
They can rush the passer and Giants make a lot of mistakes. Sloppy execution in all three games. Giants will need to play a clean game to win.

Green Bay and Carolina weren't concerned about their O either...
The Giants have to go into Minnesota  
Simms11 : 9/27/2016 9:50 am : link
with a chip on their shoulder and execute better. They have to be the more physical team in this game. I sure hope they have a better game-plan.
How has minnys run defense been?  
mattlawson : 9/27/2016 9:59 am : link
I can envision a huge reliance on them to take the pressure off Eli and we've run the ball well so far this season.

Time for Eli and Big Mac to showcase what we're capable of in the deep passing game though too with more deep shots. Odell could have had 200+ yards and atleast 1 TD Sunday
Matt-  
mrvax : 9/27/2016 10:04 am : link
I think the Vikings have a good run D. But...I don't think Eli will be able to take deep shots because the Viking Dline is supposed to be excellent at rushing the passer. I think they lead the league in sacks.

It will be a tough game, our Oline will decide the outcome.

Again, I have NO MAJOR CONCERNS about our O..If we're shut down, so be it, but I'm not concerned with Eli's offense..I have serious injury concerns about our D as alluded to above

They have 15 sacks already.

Holy crap. I'm sure they also have a ton of QB hurries and hits. This might be a good time to utilize Beatty as an extra blocker on the LOS. Their DL vs our OL is a major mismatch. Eli might want to wear more padding under his jersey this week.
I foresee a pick 6  
bradshaw44 : 9/27/2016 10:20 am : link
Or four.
tired of the excuses  
federer70 : 9/27/2016 10:27 am : link
just want a clean game with low penalties and no turnovers and i think we'll be fine. don't give up a short-field; take advantage of your opportunities especially with the wrs; don't get too pass happy; and i think we can win like 20-10 or something similar. i refuse to be impressed by bradford.

'56 Did JPP get more injured ( for lack of better way to say ) Sunday ? He was a wrecking machine on Sunday.

Not sure, my friend..I didn't expect them to say anything of substance anyway..All I know, is that he said (betore Skins game) that it was painful, but after what he's been through, it was nothing.

Les in TO : 9/27/2016 10:57 am : link
donnell - I think he's going to have a lot of single coverage and will take advantage of his opportunities.

on defense, I'm going with Collins - I think he will have a monster game.
Odell Beckham is about to go off.  
Brown Recluse : 9/27/2016 11:05 am : link
Sundays second half was the beginning. The fire is lit. Competitive juices are peculating. He's about to unleash hell.

Antonio Brown who?
percolating, haha

Perkins should be able to block everything up  
Jimmy Googs : 9/27/2016 11:54 am : link
this week. I don't expect Minnesota to really take any risks and bring pressure.

The Giants do just fine on their own in creating pressure...
Under the lights is good.  
CT Charlie : 9/27/2016 12:29 pm : link
If OBJ gets loose on the sideline deep, Eli will see him. The whole shadow-light thing is tough on QB's facing pressure.
Unfortunately,

We know he can commit a stupid penalty
We haven't seen many snaps w/2TE...  
Dan in the Springs : 9/27/2016 6:57 pm : link
will be interesting to see if that changes this week, given the opponent.

I'm going to say that Donnell steps up and we see a 3TD game from him. He's due. Why not?
We're going to win.

Not sure how many people will agree with this, but I rarely gat AS NERVOUS as I do for a division opponent, whether they suck or not..I'm not nervous about the next two games as I believe we have a good chance to win. Whether we do or not remains to be seen, but I'm nowhere near as anxious as I am when we play the NFCE
I like some of the optimism.  
SFGFNCGiantsFan : 9/27/2016 7:36 pm : link
But the Vikes are going to be a tough. Their defense is freaking good. Our OL needs to bring their A game.
Uhhh  
djm : 9/27/2016 7:38 pm : link
We are long overdue for a big boy win on the road. Like 4 years overdue. Come the fuck on already.
