Is not the answer at Center. Gets pushed back far to often. Watching Cowboys and Elliott run right behind Frederick and not get touched until he’s 3 or 4 yards past the line of scrimmage every time and comparing that to how often Barkley gets hit behind or at the line of scrimmage shows what a difference a good Center makes. Cowboys making the Eagles look silly and I’m sure when the Giants play the Eagles we will see their DL in our backfield all game.
Add a Center to the priority list for next season.

Let's ask FMiC...
He dug himself in on Halapio being a plus player!
The guy was a guard in college and in the few games he played in the NFL before coming here. I think he had 8 games total in college AND the NFL at center before playing center for the Giants.
Just a massive massive mis-evaluation of him, and it has cost the team big time. Just like last year starting with Flowers at RT.
Unfortunately it's but one of a handful of really poor playing time personnel decisions this staff has made. They significantly reduced our chances of having a successful start to this season. Now the season is over so maybe we'll finally see the young athletes they should have phased in over a month ago.
In the mean time, I am sticking with "He Sucks". I think he is one of those cases that the team knows he is a liability, but didn't want to spend resources on that position yet. So they talk about him in grand terms to keep the media and fans from questioning their moves more than they would like.
At this point though, we know Pulley is, and as pedestrian as Pulley is, he is better than Halapio. Time to pull the plug.

I thought it was the old QB who made the o line suck?
He started due to injury. He is not the answer either and is probably worse but at this point I see no harm in giving him a shot.
This offseason the Giants need to make some serious changes to the offensive line. They should attempt to sign a veteran center like Ted Karras and also draft a center.
