Bears not playing starters tonight  
Sneakers O'toole : 8/16/2019 7:26 pm : link
on both sides of the ball
I wNt the starters

To exert their will on backups. Which means Eli moves the ball for a score and the defense keeps them out of the end zone. Let’s do this the right way.

Keeping it close to the vest based on meeting later in the regular seaso? or am I overstating strategy and it's just all about health? Curious move for the second exhibition game.
This is the first step towards an 18 game regular season with  
Zeke's Alibi : 8/16/2019 7:35 pm : link
two preseason games. The coaches think the preseason is a waste of time and just like going for it on 4th, finally coaches are coming around.
Honestly, I expect Eli to light it up tonight.

Hopefully,  
AcidTest : 8/16/2019 7:37 pm : link
there will be no injuries. We've already had a lot.

I'm interested in the WRs and LBs.
No starters for CHI.  
Dave in Hoboken : 8/16/2019 7:37 pm : link
So, by some folks logic last week, I guess nothing that any Giants player does 'counts' tonight.

Hehe.

If our starters are trash that isn’t a good thing
Latimer burned that guy.

good start

Rod Smith with a nice run.

By Hernandez.

Zeitler.
Irregardless of who’s playing for the Bears  
mfsd : 8/16/2019 7:42 pm : link
remarkable what this offense can do both running and passing when the blocking is there

Beat me!
nice touch on that

Well yeh the blocking isn't just there, they are dominating.
How can you discount the fact that it's the Bears  
CT Charlie : 8/16/2019 7:45 pm : link
second string?

Fowler makes a play!!

10 play TD drive, and a beauty!
The

That’s a fine, fine drive

Good to see!
Exactly what you wanna see

Ok, our 1s can dominate 2s of a good team  
Ben in Tampa : 8/16/2019 7:46 pm : link
That is an improvement!
Well good sign, our offensive line looked like the 2016 Cowboys.  
Zeke's Alibi : 8/16/2019 7:46 pm : link
And our Wrs that need to step up look like they can beat the Bears scrubs.
Fantastic drive  
Joey from GlenCove : 8/16/2019 7:46 pm : link
No reason to see Eli play anymore.


I’d like to keep the OL in

I don't, but I'm nonetheless happy to see some good blocking.
Bears 2nd team giving some resistance,  
Simms11 : 8/16/2019 7:47 pm : link
but we still moved the ball fairly well. I’ll take it. I like Fowler too. I think he makes this roster regardless of him not playing on Specials.
Nice drive  
Bluesbreaker : 8/16/2019 7:47 pm : link
Eli looked sharp .
Nice snap  
XBRONX : 8/16/2019 7:47 pm : link
on the extra point by Pepper. By Deossie.
Giants fans: JONES WAS PERFECT, HE HAS TO START!

Eli Manning: Hold my beer.
Very nice  
OBJRoyal : 8/16/2019 7:47 pm : link
Drive by the offense!! OL looked good, run game was ok and Eli looked good
nice drive  
Steve in ATL : 8/16/2019 7:47 pm : link
no penalties. last year I doubt they could run 10 plays without a penalty.

No basically whatever they did it wouldn’t matter to you?

It’s not their fault Mack isn’t playing

True true...but what I love too is seeing our guys get their assignments right. No plays blown up bc somebody whiffed on his read or something like that.
Looked sharp and no penalties.  
RDJR : 8/16/2019 7:47 pm : link
Now let Jones play next series.
...  
Eric from BBI : Admin : 8/16/2019 7:47 pm : link
Barkley is going to love this line. There was one gigantic hole that he would have taken it to the house.
Not to be outdone  
mattlawson : 8/16/2019 7:48 pm : link
4/4 and a TD for manning.
If we..  
FatMan in Charlotte : 8/16/2019 7:48 pm : link
can just get average OL play - we will be a much more competitive team this year.

And thus far through a game and a drive, the OL is better than average
Fowler got good  
rebel yell : 8/16/2019 7:48 pm : link
separation out of the slot. Nice drive and TD.
Why  
MookGiants : 8/16/2019 7:48 pm : link
isn't Engram playing? I know why Saquon isn't playing, no sense in having him play in these games, we already know how good he is.

But Engram needs reps. He's talented, but he hasn't played anywhere near well enough to this point where he doesn't need the preseason reps.

Eli should play another drive or 2 IMO. Live action against another team is good practice for him. He’s going to be the starter week 1.
