Two defensive lineman on 1st and 2nd down and none on 3rd

What was up with that?

It kind of reminded me of the 1990 Superbowl.

Seems to me that the Giants paid the same price today that they paid back then.

Does anyone care to comment?

Remember

that game against the Colts in Indy where the Giants went light on the DL and the Colts ran over them all game?

Good memories!

Giants did not treat Murray

Like a rookie. They should have been throwing ol types of defenses and lots of blitzing. They coached scared.

Did they have a 3rd string QB taking up a roster spot instead of a DL?

That game was excruciating, Manning completely outcoaching Fewell.

I remember.

I also remember after the game Payton Manning saying that the Colts saw the Giants inactive list and knew that they were going to be able to run the ball all night.

That was a Sunday night game.

I think that Colts game

Was that the game that Strahan was trying to cover the TE as a pass defender?

Hard to 'see' on the radio

But if so thats not good

I had advocated for year the 5-0-6 ...with 3dts, two olb/edge types making your 5.

Sounded like they wanted speed to chase the QB and just got manhandled up front as a result

They too Ximines playing DT on 3rd and 11

Along with Lawrence who was doubled. That was on the 3rd TD. It was raining. We needed to stop the run.

Very frustrating

Because fat boy is a HORRIBLE DC that should get fired sooner than later. He makes ZERO adjustments and for me personally, I hate 3-4 D... even more when you don�t have the personnel for it
