I know people complain about losing Snacks but, to me, that isn't even close to the issue. We have no contain, ever. That is assignment football and we just aren't a smart team let alone all the tackles that this team missed. This has been a common theme all year.
I know Bettcher has been given a pass by most because the talent just isn't there but I hate that this issue has not been remedied from the start of the year until now. Henry looked like Jacobs behind out 2008 OL. Disgusting.
This guy cannot be gone soon enough.

I'm asking if we review our own tape. Unless he's doing what the coaches want him to do, OV should be benched for constantly crashing inside and losing containment.
It may very well be what the coaches want, because I don't remember OV having this problem in the past, especially from a veteran.
If this is what the coaches want, they should be canned.
Riley and Webb are awful
Without Collins there was no run support
also didn't see much gang tackling.
you mean the kind of shit they should've learned in high school?
after scoring 40 pts in 3 Quarters against the skins. Its just the way they were out physicalled on both sides of the line
ain't it I had hopes for him but without Collins and the
obvious move of Snacks shows how much they miss them .
Collins is one of the Best in football as is Snacks but
this draft is deep in Defense Both that Bama Boys the LT
and the NT are high on my wish list Edge rusher I love
Josh Allen . Vernon was a non factor they ran at him all
day long he had two lousy Tackles totally nullified in the
pass rush his third and final tackle was his moron Body slam
moment . I would like a FS ball hawk that can tackle as well
That said, the DB's tackling technique has sucked forever, and doesn't seem to have improved. NYG's LB's are also not a very physical lot.
The Giants looked flat to me from when they came out, as if they'd rather be somewhere else. And the Titans are a big physical team that just put the hurt on them.
2. Center
3. Free Safety with wheels,ints and hits
4. LB (smart instinctive tough classic mob or ss tweener type that can drop)
5. NT (like the betch but for games like this you need one 340+ lb type)
6. DB of some kind
7. OT or Guard prospect

The Giants don't have a 3rd round pick. BPA all day. Drafting for need gets you players like Ereck Flowers in the top 10.
Shiney Objects. Not.
Not strictly as a result of a positional approach. That's a convenient way of justifying the mindless pure bpa approach.
League history has a lot of defenses that turn around because of scheme and coaching without turning over all the talent.
Ogletree's a good player. Jackrabbit's a good player.
And that's it.
Vernon sucks this year. Tomlinson, Martin, Wynn, Mauro are JAGs. 3 rookies in Hill, Carter and Haley. Riley isn't an NFL player. Webb's a 4/5 CB. Barwin's finished.
Really, how do these guys ever stop anyone?
Today, they didn't. Bettcher has ZERO to work with aside from Ogletree who I think is having a great year. Fixing this D (pass rush) is the #1 priority.
