Eli was extremely accurate.
Barkley ran well, and caught a critical pass on the last TD drive.
The run D was excellent, and we forced two turnovers. Wynn and Harrison had monster games. Carter, Hill, and Edwards were also solid.
The OL opened some holes.
Covered Hopkins and Fuller well, despite only having three CBs.
Rosas was terrific.
Negatives.
No downfield plays.
The OL seemed to collapse in the second half, magnified by Eli's immobility. Wheeler was absolutely abused by Watt the entire day.
Muffed a punt, and of course no return yardage.
Too conservative on many plays. Four consecutive punts in the second half, including after each TO.
Didn't give Wheeler help on every pass play. He should rarely have been left alone on JJ Watt.
Couldn't defend the middle of the field.
Had trouble keeping contain.
Was very good today, hats off to him. I must admit I did not believe he had it in him anymore. That last touchdown Drive is what has been missing from his repertoire. Now we just need some consistency let's do it some more. Playing very meaningful game next week, 2 and 2 changes everything. 1 and 3 will suck. Great job.
Barkley is one hell of a good receiver. I’ve never seen a Giants RB with that ability. That catch by the goal line on the last drive was beautiful.
That was a great catch and Shurmur is definitely a guy willing to take risks as that was 3rd down and 1. They could have just handed the ball to Barkley there, but it was a great call as it worked.
It was absolutely the right call. Other teams throw downfield on 3rd and short, it’s about time the Giants did.
As a DE in a 3-4 his primary responsibility is against the run. He's always been pretty good as a run defender. Any pass rush or pass defense he can generate, and he can generate a wee bit is a bonus. He's also a very good and willing special teamer.

If Shepard didn’t drop Eli’s pass in the Jax game then who knows, maybe they’d have scored a TD & beaten Jax.
Against Dallas the OL was a complete disaster and Eli could not establish a rhythm.
Second highest completion percentage in Eli’s career.

It's been burdened by the fact that the offense up until this point hasn't done well maintaining drives and controlling the clock. I'm excited to see the potential of the defense if they can get healthy with Vernon and Apply being available.
Never knocked the guy many here did !
Walt Coleman needs to retire !
I didn't like the missile shots at the legs ...
Eli was solid the O-line played better as a group .
Not gonna bash Flowers he isn't the only OT failure in the
top 10 blame JR
Barkley is as advertised .. he came close to breaking off
a long one earlier in the game love the way he went after
the ball in the air !
We missed Apple for sure FS still an issue
Wheeler did alright but he was over-matched had his moments . Eli finally looked comfortable
still had issues with stunts and blitzes but
We Won thats all that matters
Nice game by Shepard except one dumb penalty .
Feels good to win period !
+1
would add....
Greco made the difference on OL, Wheeler stepped up.
+2 turnovers wins games
Think they can survive EE out for some time if needed.
Nice win but it IS the Texans
Wynn is a beast, gets game ball!
Love the rookie impact. This draft one of best in years.
I'm sure I saw him out there but didn't hear his name called often if at all. Good job by the line taking him out of the game.
It appeared that the Giants gave Solder help with him during most of the game. If people are wondering why Wheeler was mostly left alone against JJ Watt, that's likely the biggest reason why.
That last drive to nail it was vintage. The team as a whole does need to play better, this Texans team may be pretty bad. This is a step in the right direction though.
I'm optimistic for next week, we could be catching the Saints at the perfect time after this OT game.

Blew up a couple of plays if you count the Solder holding that negated the OBJ first down in the 3rd quarter (I think that was him). Other than that very quiet. Not sure he was healthy.
“Eli got me Hyped up!” “He told me in the huddle, you catch this we win”
Wow he is a rah rah guy! Fuck Boomer and his ass clown Gio playing the Andy Griffith theme song every time they play a quote from Eli!
He got time today and he played the way he CAN play, when protected!
Our immobile toasted QB just beat one of the highly touted "mobile" QBs. And did so by being fucking clutch
Clutch and protected and pinpoint throws. Who says he can't do it anymore!??? Listening on the Sirius sports on the way back from the game, two announcers were giving out the scores and when the guy gave the Giants score he said in an I-told-you-so attitude, "See what happens when you give Eli some protection." YESSSSSS!
this team shows it really wants to win!!It was a step in the right direction and they're nowhere near perfection,but at the end of the day it was fun to watch this game!!!
Eli played great and the defense did a great job against the Texas horrible OL they are actually worse than ours. Great job now let’s put a streak together. Go Giants!

Texans had the top rushing offense in the league but their OL is the worst in the league?
The win is great, but now we have to worry about Â
This week they used all their weapons and SB got his yards in the flow of the offense
Great job by Shurmur and Shula. It would have been esasy to crawl under a rock and just try to run the ball a lot after last week's breakdowns in pass pro. But they came out attacking and spread the ball around
I truly had no idea whether they were going to pass or run most downs. They really mixed it up

Did you see how pumped up Eli was after the TD? I fucking love Eli. Always have, always will.
Positives.

We still have work to do.
Wynn was a udfa (one nobody ever had heard of other than some dork here (hello) , a udfa who contributed some from the get go.
Now he's in a DL centric system that kicks ass.

Here's another negative:
Curtis Riley sucks balls
Wynn is a large defensive end who doesn’t rush the passer much but can stop the run, so it makes sense he’s playing better in this scheme
Nice win and takes the pressure off. I think they play well next week and keep it going
Walt Coleman needs to retire !

Wheelers baptism under fire today - we'll see where is learning curve is now.
Don't forget the other 3. Allen looked good today, too.

*Thought Shurmur had 2 tactical screw ups that couldve costed the Giants big: rushing the play before the 2 minute warning in the 1st half
And
*Not running Barkley from under center after the OBJ 1st down in the 4th quarter.
Shurmur knows football but he’s an inexperienced HC who didnt look like he had a feel for closing out a win.
Wow he is a rah rah guy! Fuck Boomer and his ass clown Gio playing the Andy Griffith theme song every time they play a quote from Eli!

I don’t understand this last comment. The TD drive by the Giants sealed the win.
Go Giants
LOL!
I'm not worried about Washington. I'm worried about Snacks. If he's healthy, AP isn't a factor when they meet up.

And a very good thing it is!
Tiki was a terrific receiver
