2nd line- they are now 5 and..not have
supercede although old English does accept it as you have written.
Overall very well done, go giants.
Good review Eric......

Hopefully Bettcher blitzes a little more this week because without a pass rush, and turnovers, it will be a long afternoon.

Bucs are tanking by not playing Winston  
shyster : 11/16/2018 3:11 pm : link
FitzTragic is 0-4 in his last four starts with eight interceptions and a fumble. Three points on the board vs the Skins at home in last game.

Winston has had his own turnover issues, but he can still throw the ball: e.g., 4TDS and 400 yards vs the Falcons.

Bucs have one eye on being certain they can get out of Winston's option, which is guaranteed for injury. And the other is on the draft.

Players have to know what is going on. Giants should win this game.

And, come April, Bucs will very likely pick ahead of the Giants and take a QB.

I think if you wanted to tank then play Winston, have you seen this guy play lately, awful!

As a Tallahassee resident, I am all too familiar with Winston. And I get to see a lot of the Bucs' broadcasts.

He has always had turnover issues, and I know what has happened this year. But he still has showed his talent and is, fundamentally, the same guy that beat the Giants last year, before the injuries became an excuse.

Fitzpatrick hasn't won a game since Sept 16. With eight interceptions of his own in his last 4 starts, it's simply not plausible to make turnovers the reason for keeping him in there.

That leaves the issue of Winston's $20M option being guaranteed for injury and the Bucs wanting out, for reasons going beyond Winston's play on the field.

Winston won't get paid by the Bucs but he will get paid by someone. And he will get paid a whole lot more on the open market than Fitzpatrick.
Nice job Eric

thank you...
You can't decide

when you get healthy and hit your stride. Sometimes the season's over. The Giants - right now - seem to be healthy and starting to click. They need to run the table - but I think 9-7 gets them in.
Yeah i get from much of the fan base now

After monday nights win, that the giants have turned the corner and the giants are back.

Theres not much that needs to be changed as originally thought and really only need a couple of players to contend next year for a championship.

This should be an easy win Sunday vs a very bad Tampa Bay team
So Many Questions...  
M.S. : 11/17/2018 10:41 am : link

...so few answers.

QB
C
RG
T
Edge
MLB
CB
S
Head Coach
General Manager

Anyone want to guess how many years before we solve this complex riddle?

As someone who watched first hand the debacle from 1964 - 1980, I will tell you that the biggest frustration is when certain pieces of the puzzle are fixed, but others are not thus undermining the puzzle pieces you have in place.

But it all begins with the right General Manager and the right Head Coach. And Eric from BBI is right to question Gettleman and Shurmur.

Oh come on now. Thats ludicrous. Much of the fan base is saying all of that after Mondays win? Yeah, bullshit.

People happy they actually won a game doesnt equate to all that made up nonsense you just invented. Just stop.
I do not see an easy win Sunday,  
Simms11 : 11/17/2018 12:11 pm : link
but the Giants need to come out like gang-busters and get their first home win this year somehow. Im not as concerned about the offense as I am the Defense. It seems like every time this team scores, the defense allows the other team to drive the field for another score. They cant get the other team off the field on third downs. Bettcher has to do a much better job of creating pressure and mixing up coverages. Fitz, although not great, can still play QB and keep drives alive. TOP in this game is crucial and so if we can control the clock, get a ground game going and score in the RedZone, itll give us a great chance of coming out on top. Id hate to get beaten by a last minute FG again!

Nice review Eric always appreciate the effort

with some optimism the negativity gets old hopefully we
see another win today If they come out flat and don't put
at least 24 offensive points on the board I think it goes
a long ways in regards to Shurmur .
I like the Ogletree move initially but he needs to finish
strong and make dome plays .
