Looking at the NFC East  
nym172 : 11/26/2020 7:25 pm : link
The Giants need to invest ILB/OLB this offseason.

Sanders/Boston killed us.
Antonio Gibson/Mckissic look like quite a duo.
Pollard/Zeke will be back next year with Dak and a rebuilt OL.

We saw Ryan get outrun vs Scott. Martinez struggled vs Sanders and Kelce.

You need someone next to Martinez badly. McKinney/Ximinies will help to match up against these backs, but someone else at LBs especially ILB who can cover too since they are all great receiving backs is critical.

Id put this above 2nd Corner but behind edge rusher as needs for the defense.

Crowder has a lot to prove imo, well see the last six games. Downs/Mayo are JAGs.

But it was like 4th & 10 no? The odds of that being successful are pretty damn slim.

People say that all the time, but I think most rational people would chock that up to getting lucky, but dumb decision. Nothing about that situation warranted the risk of a fake punt. Especially a complicated one like that because you need to get what 8 yards?

When it was 4th & 1 or so & you're near midfield. You're @ your own 25 & it's 4th & forever. Just completely idiotic.

There are a lot of bad o lines and tight ends in the NFL. They can’t pass block even with the new rules and they can’t block for shit on short yardage. The TE are terrible. There are 3 or 4 in the entire league who are worth a shit.

Didn't Jerry fire Switzer for going on 4th down ?  
Ron from Ninerland : 11/26/2020 7:38 pm : link
Back in the day Barry Switzer's job was hanging by a thread but I seem to remember him sealing his fate by going for it and failing on a 4th and 1 on his side of the field. As for McCarthy, even the Jets had the sense to stay away from this burnout. Not only is he a bad coach, but one has to wonder about his mental stability.

Run the ball early and often with Gallman and target Slayton early and often. Pretty much the WFT gameplan with McLaurin and Gibson.

On defense, you have to blitz and get after Dalton and play man with these terrible OL. If you sit back in zone Dalton will have time with these 3 great WR to pick you apart. That was a mistake of the gameplan the first them they met.

If memory serves, Dallas went for 4th down in a game at Philly & didn't get it, but a TO was called before the play. Then Barry decided to go for it again & they got stuffed a second time.

We are not the WFT. They can cover throughout their back 4. We have some weak links. That’s one of the few ways we could lose, their WRs having big plays. Gallup had a rough day today as well. This game was unbelievably close until that idiotic fake punt. Zeke ghost fumbling is the real difference maker in this one. Holds onto ball there we could certainly be telling a different story. We need to run the ball and control the football. Dallas defense is so soft and undisciplined. Run run run PA all day.
6 wins does it. CIN/DAL are must wins.

Handful of posters discredit the Giants for their wins against the Skins because the Skins are awful.

Weeks later I’m sure some of those posters will say WFT is the favorites in the NFC East and better than NYG.

Haha. Nah, I've been as down on the Giants as much as anyone, but I have to eat some crow: they, and this is weird for me to type, look like the best team in the division this year. Their record should be better than 3-7. And I think they're going to finish strong, which might be enough in an awful division to win the crown.

Really? I didn't see comments like this when Jones was out-rushing any RB on this roster by two-three times.

Anyone who knows anything about football knows the improvement in the running game has come because of the offensive line, not because of "different running styles."

Only a moron would claim that any of the running backs on the roster now are better than Barkley.

What I'm suggesting is this. If the Giants win without Barkley, and they do it primarily because of improved offensive line play, it hardly matters that Barkley was "touched by the hand of God", and it would make little sense to pay Barkley $15-20 million a year if you can without him (provided the offensive line is effective).

I should add that I was opposed to drafting Barkley because to me, drafting Josh Allen made a lot more sense. I had no interest in Darnold, Rosen, or Mayfield.

I'm not claiming the other running backs are better. I'm saying that if the Giants win without Barkley, there's no reason to consider him indispensible and worth $15-20 a year. Spend the money elsewhere and forget the notion that he was "touched by the hand of God".

Zeke's Alibi : 11/26/2020 11:55 pm : link
The biggest need right now is offensive playmakers. Saquon would be crushing what our RBs put up. He’d be rushing for 5.5 yards a clip this year based on what he’s put up compared his counterparts. Teams that do that win games more than not. Now I believe he needs to stay fairly healthy to justify paying him elite RB money, that’s going to be the big question mark This offense needs playmakers desperately..

I’m sure Eric is well aware of the motivation behind your original post. It was clear as day what you were getting at. And your opinion is incredibly flawed. This team is desperate for playmakers. And Barkley is one of the best. He completely changes how defenses gameplan and scheme. He opens everything else up for the passing game, which has struggled mightily without him.

By your logic, if the Giants win the division, it’s proof that there is no need to add a pass rusher. They won the division without any! There is not need to add secondary players. No need to improve the LBs. No need to add WR, we must be all set, they won the division!
