Some positive Golden Tate quotes from NFLN’s Total Access

Defenderdawg : 7/11/2019 8:29 pm
"What I can I see, Eli Manning's got a lot of juice left," Tate told NFL Network's Scott Hanson on Total Access on Thursday. "He's still got some zip on his passes.

"I've been impressed. I think we have a really good problem. We've got a Hall of Fame-type of quarterback in my mind and we also drafted a guy, a young guy, so we don't need Daniel to come in and save the day. We just need Daniel to stay on pace, learn as much as he possibly can in a great environment and just take it day by day. We don't need him to come in tomorrow and win a game. We just need him to stay on pace. I think that's good news in my mind."

Part of the reason Tate is confident in the Giants offense as currently constructed (orchestrated by Manning) is the variety and multiplicity of New York's weapons, especially himself.

“The two years I started in Seattle, I was an outside guy. My first two years in Detroit with two receivers I was outside and with three receivers I was inside. So I can kind of play everywhere and that's what makes me unique," Tate explained. "I think I can be efficient everywhere and coach Shurmur is going to do a good job of moving myself and Saquon (Barkley) and Sterling (Shepard) and Cody (Latimer) and Corey (Coleman) and (Evan) Engram around. I think we can move wherever and just create mismatches and make plays and I think that's what's going to make us unique this year."

Signed in free agency just days after the Giants traded Odell Beckham Jr. to the Cleveland Browns, Tate said he doesn't feel pressure to replace the athletic wideout's production.

"I'm my own player. I have a different style of playing," Tate added. "I'm just going in there to work hard and do my job the best I possibly can best to help this organization win.

"I don't care how we get it done. If that means I get 1,500 yards, so be it if I get 600 yards, I just want to win ball games and get back to winning and get to the playoffs and being the New York Giants that I grew up watching."

If every Giant fan would align with the sentiments articulated by Golden they'd be set to enjoy the upcoming season.
Don't worry, be happy. :)
Nice guy

sounds like a politician. I don't mean that in a bad way, but there is nothing to glean from this

These guys can't win

Beckham says something controversial and it's "what a tool only thinking about himself." Tate said something diplomatic and "he was clearly being a fake."

Only when Saquon says something, only then it's a close second to Gospel straight from the lips of Moses...

Ditto, BBI at it s best
OBJ would still be around...if he was as diplomatic  
George from PA : 7/12/2019 5:38 am : link
I understand why some would say.....what else could he say.

But if he was dramaticly false....it will come out relativily quickly....

I suspect, he believes it....hope springs eternal.

I expect a real good year from the offense and special teams and somewhat optimistic with the defense.

Just not sure if it is good enough to catch dallas and Philly
Sounds like...

Unfortunately, it's not just this. It is with anything positive about this team.

All of the reports about Daniel Jones during mini camp and OTA's- anything good and well it's shorts and shirts.

Gidie posted about the player interviews and how the players are talking about learning their craft, talking up their teammates and competition - well, that means nothing because we have a lot of young players.

And on and on and on

Consider the poster...
This is the type of attitude you need

Team 1st. Its OK to have a few Me Me Me guys, but the majority of the team needs to be more like Tate, Whatever it takes to win. The Eli era has been successful when we got rid of the me me me guys. Even Burress when he came in was not that guy, he fell in line for the most part.

We need guys that come to work, talent only goes so far.

Let's face it, a large portion of Giants fans are whiney and unhappy no matter what.

Right now they will claim that it's frustration from lack of winning, but they are really always like that.

I remember Giants "fans" telling me afyer SB42 that we were lucky, they weren't very good and that it wouldn't happen again.

To a certain people fandom is about bitching.

There are a few bones to pick with Burress for sure, but there were plenty of reports that Plax actually played through some pretty serious injuries (high ankle sprain, knee) that would have led Mr. Meme to bench himself even when green lighted by medical staff.

Those weeks when Plax didn't practice but showed up every Sunday were, according to some sources, quite extraordinary.

I thinkk most of you on this thread are wrong including you. Nothing personal. But for some fans when you make a statement like "these guys can't win . . . " --

well Tate hasn't own as a Giant and mostly OBJ didn't win. I don't understand the homerism from so many.

If the team stinks for a long time what's wrong about bitching? Same dude on another thread was talking the GMen as potential SB contenders this year! A prominent homer poster.

I want to see the team win before I "gush" or I want to see something "extremely positive." Barkley IS positive. Here's a news flash for some of you-- overall we have been lousy for too long. And we're projected to be lousy again. The thread creation starts with "Positive Quotes . . ." from a player mostly acknowledged that the GMEn grossly overpaid. I'm supposed to applaud him???? Tate doesn't deserve to get blasted but his positive comments are basically a "who cares," isn't it? As fans don't you only care about how they produce on the field?" You really care about his quotes???? SO why should I care when I expect another lousy year? Is my opinion they will be lousy (6-10) a minority pov?

What's so wrong about bitching when they stink? You want to talk positive -- there should be more on Barkley. The man is truly amazing. If we get this guy an OL and QB - the sky is the limit. **I can see a turnaround led by a super rb PROVIDED he has the QB and OL. *****I see what he can do -- just if he gets help. It could be a super pick by DG if he can build around him. ***"Show me" that they HAVE built good players around him instead of "telling me" it is built. Tate "telling me" anything is hollow.
