How about stick to the damn game? Every game thread doesn’t need assclowns like you whining, bitching, moaning and complaining about every single player that they didn’t pick that turned out to be good players. You guys are exhausting.


Calm down. It wasn’t that serious. Have a drink or simply don’t respond.

I don't mean to suggest Tannehill is Mahomes or Rodgers, but he is an excellent athlete and has a very good arm.


you can win a SB with him, that's for sure. He had another very good year:

TD% - 3rd
INT% - 7th
QBR - 4th
RATE - 5th
Y/A - 6th
Y/C - 4th

Attempts - 18th

But he is highly managed and conservative.

What posters forget or don't know about Tannehill...  
bw in dc : 1/10/2021 1:46 pm : link
is that he got converted to WR at Texas A&M and didn't start until his senior year. So he wasn't really seasoned coming out of college and the learning curve was longer...

The story last year was Lamar sinking his team before they even had a chance. He’s responding better than last year so there that.

Reminds me of Anquan Boldin. He’s humongous.

A team that had Brown and DK Metcalf as its wide receivers went 5-7.

Nicks' catch radius was huge and after the catch he was hard to bring down. Reminded me of TO's performance down the line, obvious to a lesser effect. TO was dominant over the middle too so the comparisons end there but Nicks was SUPER effective and one of my favorite Giants of recent time.

Titans might’ve been the worst defense in the sport the final 8 weeks of the season. If he can’t get it done today, then when?

Thank goodness the Giants drafted 3 different players before the Titans selected AJ Brown.

Can NEVER have a game thread without posters saying “good thing the Giants didn’t take THAT guy!”.



If you didn’t like that, you won’t like when I mention the guy we took 14 spots ahead of Brown lasted all of 1 season in Blue due to him being charged with multiple felonies.

This .. there are great players from the 18/19 drafts popping up all over the NFL that the Giants had a chance at. You can’t run from the truth we need to embrace it and figure out how to do better
This was why he didn’t take the over. Gotta figure even if both

teams score, explosive plays will be minimum plus the Lamar factor. 54 is high for a playoff game outdoors.

Yeah, exactly. That's what some of these guys don't get. I hardly watch any other teams anymore so it is nice to see ineffective positions on our team do what they're supposed to do on others. Oh and by golly what a surprise they just happen to be a playoff team where we can watch their game in full.

You don't recall Boss/Ballard catching a seem passes and rumbling for 30 to 40 yards out or nowhere lol? We used to have effective TE's then we went to the failed oversized WRs that run poor routes, have terrible catch radius, terrible hands but... run fast lol. There's a reason these guys don't play WR. Hopefully we go back to the oversized country boy, that has no fear over the middle and disregard the 40 time.

It’s crazy how bad they are and we usually don’t see how bad it can get with Henry controlling the clock in many cases. When you take that into account their defense is basically worse than ours was in 2018-19.
That was dumb.
