Giants vs Dallas Postgame Discussion

well... if the season was not already over two weeks ago.. it is now
I had a tooth extraction that was more fun than watching this game

They're not just bad, they're dull

Keep Toney and unload the rest.

ouch  
markky : 10/10/2021 7:47 pm : link
that sucked. injuries, loss of discipline, completely overmatched.

the only silver lining is KT. what a stud.
We are not a good team at full strength...  
EricJ : 10/10/2021 7:47 pm : link
but when you layer the injuries on offense and the really poor play of our defense, I am actually surprised it was close at halftime
Toney is DGs best pick

He is already the best player on the Giants

Everyone on O being hurt and on D sucking, and being 1-4, I think we’re well positioned
Toney and Thomas are the goods

I think one thing we can all agree  
Keaton028 : 10/10/2021 7:48 pm : link
on: Giants football hasn’t been fun for a long time. It sucks. Early October and watching the team is miserable. I don’t know what else to say. I used to be so die hard about this team, and they just sapped it out of me these last 8 or so years. Tired of blaming coaches and players. The brand isn’t fun to watch and hasn’t been for a long time.
Fire DG.  
Gmen703 : 10/10/2021 7:48 pm : link
Injuries suck.

Toney is legit so far.

Engram is a non factor.

Crowder shouldn't be a starter.

Our defense is going to make this a long season.

Fire JG.

Hope Jones and Saquon get well soon.

I miss anything?



Fun note  
Daniel in MI : 10/10/2021 7:49 pm : link
Maligned GM appears to hit on good QB, OT, and WR picks and we’re terrible.
The Joka is legit!  
trueblueinpw : 10/10/2021 7:50 pm : link
Obviously today was horrible. And we're pretty much out of the hunt now and its not even Halloween. But KT is for real!

I know it will seem like sour grapes - but how was that DPI not called on KT in the end zone? That was absurd. At some point, you can't just think these calls in Dallas are a coincidence.

thought we'd lose badly, but wow, the injury report is unreal.

Got crushed again on the ground.
No pass rush.
Thought Peart played well. Solder did not.
The naked bootleg with Jones was dumb. Do the Booker dive instead.
Glennen looks like the guy I cheated off of during math tests  
Jalapeno : 10/10/2021 7:50 pm : link
But I like Glennen much better.

I think he did a a hell of a job given the situation he was handed.

The Giants brand overall has been bad for so long. Why even argue anymore? It’s futile. Offense is bad, defense is bad. Management is bad. Injuries slay our better players. What is there to even argue about anymore? The team just sucks, and it had been bad since the last Super Bowl.

Sammo85 : 10/10/2021 7:57 pm : link
was only close early on because of a lazy pass by Dak and a fumbled snap.

Injuries or not, Giants were not winning this game.

As for Barkley I feel for him, but if the Giants give him a big contract extension it will doom them for years.

We lost our best running back, our QB, did not have our Starting LT who has been great. We lost our more receivers in the game. We have enough pieces to build on for our offense.

Jeffrey : 10/10/2021 8:07 pm : link
It’s shocking to see the drop off in play from the defense. Bradbury, Williams and A Jackson got rich this offseason. Does not look like money well spent. Graham is the DC who led the Dolphins to a league worst defense. To make matters worse the Bears are winning.

I guess you would have traded Eli after his third year.



If Eli played under this cba he might not have had the same leash


Eli played half the season in '04 and then made the playoffs in '05, '06, and in '07 they won the Superbowl with him as MVP.

When exactly in his rookie contract is it you think Eli would have been cut?

Eli never had a losing season until 2013.

Wouldn't it be hard to say for sure given how often the Giants lose?
There is actually a lot of talent on offense.  
Reese's Pieces : 10/10/2021 9:28 pm : link
And I'm not including Barkley because I don't expect him to be able to stay on the field for a more than a half dozen games a year.

A minute after DJ takes the helmet to helmet hit (Aikman hinted at a penalty there but didn't fully commit), it was a 10-10 game.

Martinez was a big loss because he could tackle, a skill that most of the other defensive players have yet to master. Peppers was a big loss, because he could tackle half the time, which still put him ahead of the others.

You're not gonna win when the other team hands the ball off in between the tackles on first down and gains seven yards all the time.

But the good side of that is that it's not that difficult to find linebackers and safeties who can play the run OK.
The helmet to helmet hit was on Jones  
Mike from Ohio : 10/10/2021 9:35 pm : link
The defender kept his head up. Jones lowered his. There was correctly no penalty called on that play.

Just need to hope Jones is ok.
Some thoughts  
AdamBrag : 10/10/2021 9:38 pm : link
Toney looks really really good. I get that the punch is going to get a lot of press, and it shouldn't happen, but he looked unstoppable today. Diggs has been getting a lot of praise as a shutdown corner this year and he didn't have a chance against Toney. That should be the main take away.

Peart played a solid game.

How is Solder starting over Peart? He is terrible.

Jones didn't look very good before the injury. It was looking like his worst game of the season. I'm not overly worried though, it seemed having Solder at LT was really difficult for him.

Jones' mobility is weird. He really fast when he gets to full speed, but it takes him a long time to build up to speed. He's also not very agile.

The defense is coming back to earth a bit after last season. Truth is, the talent wasn't there last season and it overperformed. The linebackers and edge rushers aren't good. None of the safeties can cover well. This defense requires Leonard Williams to be an elite pass rusher (he's not) and Dexter Lawrence to be a way better pass rusher then he is. It also requires Bradberry and Adoree to be lock down corners, which they haven't been. I might be in the minority, but I'm still a pretty big fan of Patrick Graham, the talent on the defense just stinks.

It was a 10-10 game sure, but only

Jones has absolutely no shake. He runs like a horse at belmont, just straight all gate... he seems unable to move laterally, pivot, shuffle, spin, dart... it is the weirdest thing I have seen from someone who is athletic and known to be a great basketball player for christ sakes.
WE never learn  
Bruner4329 : 10/10/2021 10:06 pm : link
Defense right now is bad. DL is weaker than last year. One of these days we will learn you can't win without a pass rush and a good set of linebackers. For a team that has not drafted a quality linebacker since what Jessie Armstead do you think they would finally learn a lesson? And even more so you play a 3-4 defense and don't have one above average linebacker on the field. Once again BTW we can't cover a TE no matter who we play or who the TE is. Pathetic. You can blame the offense all you want but this is the 5th game in a row (and we have only played 5 games so far) that this defense let the opponent score a TD with the first half winding down. I mean its the SOS.

Too many dollars I’m the secondary - when it’s clear as day the best way to stop an NFL offense with today’s rules is to rush the passer



Worked in 2007/2011 for some reason we think the back end is more important.


For all his talk, Gettleman has given away more OL and DL talent than he jas brought in. This team is declining under Gettleman.
What OL talent has he given away  
Giants73 : 10/10/2021 10:18 pm : link
OL talent is here it is either injury or young. Can’t draft new young players every year need to develop what you have. Looks like they finally have a good o line coach in Sale. D line talent he gave up is what bj hill, you know he was on this roster and judge made two decent oline man retire because he sucks. DT the money wasn’t there, have dexter and Leo on D line can’t pay 3 do that much. Issue is this coach and d coach wanted special team players and secondary. They got what they asked for
Now that Danny has discovered that he can run,  
Reese's Pieces : 10/10/2021 10:25 pm : link
they have to sit him down and tell him not to run unless the game is on the line.

I turned 70 and have following the Giants for 60 year, starting with Y.A. Tittle and Allie Sherman. They've reached a turning point. Golladay and Toney didn't even get the ball in the first two games. Who misses Shepard and Slayton? These guys are better.

When you've been a cellar dweller for a decade, it takes a while to turn it around. The Jets, Buffalo, Cleveland, Cardinals. The team needs to think of itself as a winner, so it stops losing games by fumbling the ball while taking a knee to run out the clock or by going offside while the game-tying field goal was being missed.

They have big draft ammo and they have to land the biggest, baddest defensive player in the draft. It took a few years after LT joined the team before they became a really good team. The offense sucked and Simms kept getting injured, which tied up his progress.

The good part about watching the Giants after LT but before Simms and Parcells was that the defense got such a reputation for its punishing hits that no team really wanted to play them.
Disappointing.

I hate when posters do this. Jones and Eli have nothing to do with each other. They’re separate entities. Eli became a HOF player. You want to bet your mortgage on Jones eventually doing the same?


I don't know what kind of a career Jones will have, just like you don't. But he has had better numbers over his first 32 starts than Eli did, and Eli had a much, much better group around him. I hate when posters don't want to acknowledge that.

Today the Giants were down to three offensive starters from week 1 (if they started with 3 WRS on the field), and one was Solder, who had to move to the left side where no one expects him to be average, much less good. They were also on their fourth left guard (and I'm not even counting Gates playing a quarter there). And at the end today, they were down to Board, Ross and Johnson at WR. The Cowboys were playing a mostly second string offense even before Barkley, Jones and Golladay went out. But we have posters saying Jones looked bad early while running for his life and getting hit right after throwing. He started 1 of 9 before going 4 of 4 on the drive when he got hurt.

Anyone remember what 2018 MVP Mahomes looked like in the Super Bowl last year without his starting tackles? He was 26 for 49 for 270 yards, two INTs, no TDs, 3 sacks and a rating of 42.2. The team around the QB has a lot to do with the QB's play. Anyone think Brady could win with what we had on the field most of today?

Comparing numbers, uncritically, from 16 years ago is ridiculous. All the passing numbers are inflated today.

We haven't drafted a linebacker in the first round in an unbelievable 37 years.
Solder is consistently a disaster  
AcesUp : 10/10/2021 10:46 pm : link
Hard do judge live but it feels like Peart had an ok game. Why was Solder out there over him? I gave them the benefit of the doubt that Peart wasn’t close to ready but Solder may legitimately be the worst OT in the league. The left side was a total mess today.

I love all the revisionist history here on BBI.
FACT: The anti-Eli venom was palpable on the Corner forum 2004-2007, right up until the playoff run that changed everything. He was a lower % completion guy, with a high INT rate and the knives were out for both he and TC right up until they went on their 4 game run...and I can you this as someone that came on here and defended the guy.
Anyone remember the Week 15 game against Washington in '07? The 4 pick game vs. Minnesota?
Daniel Jones has already demonstrated he can make the throws and lead his team from behind. Let's see if he can do it consistently the rest of the season. BTW, for those looking to the draft...there are NO sure things at QB in the '22 draft. Malik Willis appears to be QB1, but he is all over the place with his mechanics and consistency.

So yeah, I do think there is a very large portion of BBI that would have dumped Eli prior to '07. The teams he had in '05 and '06 were markedly better than what Jones had to work with thus far.

Another douchebag

Eli had a better offense and the defense was complete especially the DL with Strahan, Tuck, OSI and others. Miles better than what is there now. Same goes for the linebackers.

Toomer, Brandon Jacobs, Tiki, then Bradshaw, Shockey and others. Talent wise there is no comparison
