Giants win

mdthedream : 10/16/2017 6:34 am
I have to say this game somewhat pissed me off seeing we dominated Denver in Denver. This kills me in the sense what took so long for use to make the O-line changes and why did the Giants defense finally show up. So much potential wasted this season.Seems to me the coach really dropped the ball on not giving up playing calling and not making changes that hell even I saw needed to happen after the third preseason game.
Today is a bitter sweet day...

Happy, yes...but so pissed about what might have been when you finally see a team that wants to win and actually shows up. Its also possible that the Broncos just didn't take the Giants seriously and played down to their competition, or had a bad game.

Isn’t that always people are quick to say in the NFL when a struggling team beats a team having a lot of success. But I think it was pretty clear early on Denver was going to have their hands full against a team that much was expected. So for them to come in and think all they had to do was step on the field, if that’s what happened, then shame on them. But the Giants put their best foot forward and Denver really had no answer. Kudos for once this year to the Giants.
I'm pissed too

You never know what can spark a team.
Another big factor

was the defense finally got turnovers. I just feel we came into the season not prepared and I feel that started in preseason. I feel the Giants should change its approach during preseason games and get the Oline and defense ready to play instead of worrying about getting hurt.

we completed 2 passes to WR's that is unsustainable. Once teams game plan to take away Engram we will have nothing on offense really. Denver's offense might be the worst we face all year.

I still don't see more than 4 wins with this team. I mean we played uber conservative because our defense is significantly better than there offense.

but it was nice to see them get a win...didn't want to go winless.
Yaah we won!

Shit...its almost Halloween.
a few thoughts  
giantfan2000 : 10/16/2017 8:36 am : link
. I have been saying this for weeks
Last year defense did not show up until week 6 in UK against Rams
same thing happens this year .. don't know why - maybe Spags scheme takes a few games to sink in for team ..

Beating Broncos at home is impressive any way you look at it . the fact that Giants beat Broncos so soundly is really amazing and yes bittersweet because why the hell didn't this team show up before .. if they had shown up for Philly Bucs and Charger games we would be 4-2 right now

the WRs caught 2 passes last night
I know these young guys are a work in progress but a few catchable balls we dropped by these guys
also we don't know if WR were executing their routes correctly. - it didn't seem like Eli had any confidence in these players except for Lewis .

Is there upside in the future weeks ? Why wouldn't Giants bring back Victor Cruz at least until Sheppard is back?

I know the argument is Cruz is "Done" but even while Cruz lacks his speed at least he had ability to get open in key situations and is a security blanket for Manning



Gosh

First of all Shepard is coming back. That is huge and will mean Giants can use Shepard and Engram as primary targets and hope Lewis and King can settle into a more complementary role.

If they can play more smash mouth like tonight it can be viable on offense. In fact more so than lining up in 11s with all those stars.

is this going to be a Jeckle and Hyde team now on?

i disagree, i see both sides. It's not a losers mentality. He has a fan has no bearing whether the team wins or loses but he can route for a better chance at a brighter future...

point is the same people complaining we are picking flowers/apple because our "targets" were scooped up before our pick better not be cheering for meaningless wins. It goes both ways.

Of course I didn't want them to go 0-16 I don't think anyone wants that. However if we go 6-10 and pick 10th instead of going 4-12 picking 3rd...that is a huge difference. 6-10 still sucks BTW...4-12 might give you a chance to change the luck of the franchise sooner.

No one's kidding themselves, and believe me we are getting a top 5 pick so don't worry about it. We weren't getting #1 any way Cleveland and the Niners will be hard pressed to win 2 games. It was nice for 1 night to not be embarrassed on national TV and see this defense play like they are capable of playing. Nothing will save this clusterfuck of a season. We are decimated by injuries and it will only get worse. We won't get more than 3 or 4 wins tops.
