NYG venting thread - list what you are tired of

Sean : 10/14/2018 8:51 am
Another shit season for this franchise. 4-19 in the last 23 games. Let’s all list anything we are tired of regarding this present day franchise. I’ll kick it off:

-Seeing highlights of Odell practicing 1-handed catches in pregame when the Giants can barely crack 20 points.

-Never being able to beat the Eagles.
Mara's over-loyalty to certain players or coaches or GMs  
Bold Ruler : Mod : 10/14/2018 8:54 am : link
which ends up screwing up this franchise for years. History repeats itself.
I hate to state what you already said,  
Diver_Down : 10/14/2018 9:00 am : link
but it needs clarification.

-Seeing highlights of Odell practicing 1-handed catches in pregame when he drops passes that hit him in the hands when it matters.

It as if he individually is more important than the team. He can catch balls dropped from a drone during the pro-bowl, but is unable to field a punt. One is an individual contest, the other is for the benefit of the team. You look at his cleats emblazoned with his OBJ and 13. It is about him and his brand. It isn't about the team. It's not as if he is customizing cleats with the My Cause-My Cleats program unless OBJ is his own cause.
Isn't every thread now here...

Exactly. What a miserable thread. Aren’t we crystal clear on what fans are sick of at this point?

And the fact that the first two posts mention Beckham practicing one handed catches pre game at the top of their lists speaks volumes of the mentality of this fan base. Of all the issues this team has had, Beckham practicing one handed catches is what they come up with first.

Classic BBI. You guys have fun “venting” on thread number 6000. This Sunday sure is off to a wonderful start for you all. Enjoy...

1) Not being able to keep the season alive beyond Halloween

2) Handing off the ball and running backwards

3) Horrific special teams making mental errors

4) Complete lack of physicality, particularly on offense. Never smacking teams in mouth or grinding them down physically on offense. Pure finesse always.



Playing the Giants is like half a bye week for the rest of the NFL.

I'm sick of agreeing with dep on 98% of the things he is sick of.

I'm really sick of people complaining that this is a rebuilding year, when anybody with half a brain would have seen that and then feigning that they really believed that this team (which changed 33 of 53 players from last year) was built to contend. They will not contend until the oline is really fixed, not patched.

Pretty tired of folks bitching about Odell every day when all the guy sees are 5yd to 10 yard slants a hand full of times per game while being double and triple covered. (BTW, all receivers drop pass now and again, but I do understand the angst).

Just a little tired of Barkley being pulled in the red zone after he gets them there.

One thing I am sick of in regards to Odell  
dep026 : 10/14/2018 9:37 am : link
Its no secret that his antics are childish and immature and arent needed, but....

I am sick of tired of hearing them the next day as why the Giants suck. They dont suck because Odell does something stupid on the sideline - even though they arent needed.

Mainstream media (here's looking at you RAANAN) only talk about two things about the Giants. Eli and OBJ. Little chatter about the OL, defense, or special teams. Shit, they dont even mention game changing errors by the officials. Always eli and OBJ. Granted Eli is in severe decline, and OBJ antic's arent needed.... but for fucks sake - give it a rest.

Eli's play and OBJ's antics arent the reason why we are 1-5. We are 1-5 because the whole damn team sucks. From mara to the waterboy (serioiusly give OBJ some damn water during the game!!! haha)

I hate football.

This. Maras in personnel are why this team is back in the 70s doldrums.
Every time the defense tips a Eli pass, its intercepted.  
since1925 : 10/14/2018 10:16 am : link
Last week, a low pass over the middle gets tipped, it goes immediately to an Eagle. The ball never gets above the shoulder line. It goes directly into the belly of an Eagle.

Meanwhile, we hit Palmer's arm, the ball goes way up in the air in the middle of eight guys and goes straight to an Eagle for a first down. We hit Palmer's arm again. The pass goes straight into the ground.

I'm getting tired of this crap. When do the odds turn in our favor?

They throw the ball into Connor Barwin's stomach and he drops it.

They fumble into the middle of the defensive line and the ball goes back to their RB.

Their punt returner fumbles while our gunner runs by and looks at the crowd.

2) Third down passes reaching the receiver short of the sticks.

4) Undisciplined special teams.
5) Not wrapping players when we tackle.
6) OBJ practicing 1-hand catches rather than 2-hand catches.
7) Head coaches who call plays rather than coach the whole team.
8) Wasting timeouts to avoid meaningless 5-yard penalties.
9) Seeing players try to pick up fumbles rather than fall on them.
10) Hearing Eli say "We've got to make more plays."

arcarsenal : 10/14/2018 12:24 pm : link
I am actually very tired of Odell's bullshit now. I thought he had learned from the past, but it seems that is not the case.

I completely understand his frustration, and most of what he's said isn't even wrong or off-base.

But the way he's thrown the coach and QB under the bus and the way he keeps putting himself above the team.... I've finally had enough of it.

Saquon Barkley is the only fucking thing I like about the Giants right now.
Disappointed in not being more competitive  
eli4life : 10/14/2018 12:30 pm : link
And disappointed or should I say hate seeing Eli go out like this (even though deep down inside you know it usually happens) but most of all I’m tired of the fans I should say not everyone like the ones that get it. We were a horrible team last year brought in a new regime got rid of 60% of the roster there’s no way in hades this was going to be a quick fix. Now to the parts that are getting real tiresome

The saquon vs darnold debate. I swear it the nyg version of the presidential election. I personally was on the Barkley train and I get those that wanted darnold or any of the other qb’s for that matter. I’m not saying I’m right or they are it’s just an opinion and don’t mind the debates for either. The problem is for a lot of people on here as soon as someone else has a different opinion then theirs it breaks down to name calling and attacks on the other person ( dupes and trolls not included and deserve what they get)

Almost as bad are those with a personal vendetta against a certain player. Nobody ever said you had to like every player or even want them on the team. Again it’s your opinion the issue is when every single thread spew out the same thing over and over and twists every little thing to fit their agenda usually taking things out of context. Again like above usually turns into an attack on the other posters for having a different opinion.

Thirdly more like annoying is those that have no clue on how a team is run. You can’t sign every single free agent monetarily it’s not possible and that’s assuming they want to even be here. Not every draft pick will be a home run. There will be some misses and you need need some blue collar solid types as well not just super stars. This is a process and will take time. They have a plan and whether you or I understand it is irrelevant. They won’t come out and tell you their plan nor do I want them to it’s not in their best interest to. Once again this is not a quick fix no matter how much pr crap they spew ( no team will come out and say we are gonna suck this year and maybe next so we can get better).

Frustrated or even pissed off at how the games go is understandable but can’t we keep some civility. The common denominator in all this is the personal attacks and vicious name calling because someone has a different opinion. Some great posters and people have left this site for good because of this and quite honestly I don’t see that trend ending anytime soon.
Some of mine  
jnoble : 10/14/2018 12:44 pm : link
Never forcing a punt or stopping a 3rd down especially when it really matters. I've grown jaded to just be resigned to expecting the other team to hit an easy slant on 3rd and 11 with yards to spare

Not getting sacks or enough pressure on the QB. Seeing Wentz just standing there in the pocket patiently waiting for someone in the end zone to get open with Mary a Giant within 5 yards

Getting 'reffed'. I'm also resigned to expect an immediate flag on the rare occasions we have a big play on offense or defense that gets nullified or called back usually for a questionable reason

The media spending way too much time acting like gossipy teen girls over whatever OBJ says or does instead of focusing on the entire team
What I am tired of  
VinegarPeppers : 10/14/2018 1:24 pm : link
What I am tired of:

I’m tired of losing world class wide receivers early in their careers to injuries.

I’m tired of the team failing to put a representative offensive line on the field so that great players who desperately want to win don’t go off the deep end with frustrations.

I’m tired of sports networks and highlight shows focusing only on the “skill players“ when the time comes to dole out responsibility for failure.

I’m tired of coaches who are stubborn and keep doing the same things over and over.

I’m tired of people who think scheme can provide cover for lack of talent.

I’m tired of fans who would rather not see certain players score so they won’t have to look at celebration dances.
Passing 'as run'

It's the NFC East, and you have the RB , use run to set up pass.

So. Practice the runs more.
I am tired of losing!  
SterlingArcher : 10/14/2018 1:44 pm : link
I am also tired of consistent 3 and outs
I am tired of the defense not being able to get off the field on 3rd down, especially on 3rd and long
I am tired of settling for FG's or not scoring at all in the red zone
I am tired of watching long passes on 3rd and short
I am tired of the consistent runs up the middle on 3rd and short
I am tired of not seeing the TE's involved in the offense.
