I was listening to Sirius yesterday morning and Alex Marvez said the Giants cut Paul Palmer. Then he continues to go on about how the Giants are cutting bait with players and how they are changing the culture. Yada, yada, yada. Someone eventually corrected him that it is Paul PERKINS not Palmer.

By all accounts, Perkins is a great guy. He had a down year last year. I hope he comes back ready to go next year.

ran behind the line that totally sucked and everyone knew it. The dumb ass coach didn't make the right change coming out of preseason. Darkwa got to run with a better Olne not a great oline a better one. No issue on Perkins leaving or whatever just saying.
