I know there are a lot of threads out there today that touch on a lot of what we have been witnessing all year long and in particular last night. I know most of the scorn has been directed at Garrett and rightfully so. He deservers it.
Having said that, I think Graham is as bad if not worse in how he runs this defense. He gives and gives and gives to the point he's almost always conceding points in an effort to avoid the big play. What kind of mindset is that. Every game he allows teams to enter the red zone in hopes to keep them out with only three points scored but teams do manage to find the end zone too at times.
The Giants brought in two guys who were outstanding cover corners when they were with other teams and he constantly has them playing ten yards off the receivers. He never tries to disrupt with press coverage. Hardly ever blitzes. Never does anything creative to disrupt offensive lines to create pressure on the quarterback.
The head coach signs off on all these game plans. and in the end all anyone wants to focus on is the Garrett. Well I think Graham should be in the bulls eye as well. And judge can stew and spew all he wants but in the end he's the one overseeing all this garbage.
Graham’s game plan wasn’t as bad as it was made out to be and was similar to what WFT did last week. The problem was the Bucs knew we weren’t going to score points on offense and didn’t need to try to take any shots. If the offense was somewhat competent Brady would have been forced to take shots into the two high look.
Just waiting for them to make an unforced error and then you take advantage? And if they don't then you really are just
paying guys to just tackle after they get first downs.
Great way to use the cap...
But the team was still in it until all the offensive turnovers. It really does slow down a good offense.
Just seems like he needs to mix it up more, which i thought was his strength? The Broncos knew what he was doing and certain the GOAT knew what he was doing. Just pitch and catch. Great stats for the other team.
I'd rather loss with a Spag's style defense personally.
Oh, and yes, i thought we spent all this money on CB's so he could finally play man to man????
JG has to be evaluated fairly by the new GM. Absent JG losing his job, we are stuck with Graham indefinitely. He is terrible and his defense is unwatchable.

Going down 7-0 on the first drive set the tone and puts all of the pressure on the offense. TB created an abnormally amount of pressure last night with just 4 rushing (one time only 3) and the offense could not execute. The NYG created very little pressure with their 4 (sometimes 3). It always took a blitz to create pressure. We need a top Edge (along with a replacement for Hernandez).

If we didn’t play to take away the deep stuff that Brady wouldn’t have just torched us deep?

The offense wasn’t going to do shit even if the Giants didn’t give up a score to Tampa on the first drive. The defense wasn’t great but it was a 10-10 game at one point, and the only touchdown we scored was because of the defense.

The big difference is the WFT put pressure on Brady. This team does not put pressure on anybody. The 3-4 defense does not work when you have one good lineman and a bunch of crappy linebackers.
Here's a quote from Judge about the pass rush.The LT line sounded like his version of the Rick Pitino speech in Boston.
I cant imagine being a DC and deciding thats the way you’re going to play.
This is the New York Giants. Thats the best they can do? Play fucking rope-a-dope and pray the other team screws up?
Fuck em all.
