was so bad, the negativity in me took over. But they kept it close and started to compete, which is all we want this year as we build it back.
Cannot believe they won this game. Actually apologized to my brother in law Titans fan - but i actually don;t care... lol
I just lost my father in January and I just thought the same exact thing as you. Normally we’d be on the phone recapping now. Makes you appreciate how sports can bring a family together.
We have seen our QB make good decision/plays in past seasons....I thought he was done with bird dogging his primary receiver...I had assured myself he wouldnt revert to that behavior this season due to new coaching and offense...hopefully this win and the sideline jaw with Coach will get him going in right direction...one thing for sure he really needs Barkley, Toney in the line-up....they created havoc at times and you could see the Titans lose confidence, make mistakes....
Yes, he tried to get Barkley on the back shoulder - but the safety was too far off Barkley. I think that was his one bad play in the game. That is easy to clean up. Good thing is on film he will see if anything else was open.
I also thought Kafka's play calling in the 1st half sucked.

When Barkley had the ball batted out from behind, where was the ball placed down? Where it went out of bounds? Or where the ball was first whacked out?
Where it was whacked out of his hands...
It was spotted at the 25. Where it went out. It only comes back to the spot of the fumble inside of 2 minutes or on fourth down.

My sympathies to both of you. You know they were watching and cheering on that missed FG
similar to Norwood's miss and this is just the first game of the season. We haven't seen enough of this in recent years even though I'm not sure my nerves can take it.

I wouldn't go that far, lol, but it felt great.
I gave up years offa my life for that Norwood kick and the one by Bahr the week before in San Fran. I'm sure I'm not the only one who did too.
Not just 1-0, but a win where we just came from behind after some excellent halftime adjustments (when was the last time we did that?) and gutted out a huge win in the home of the AFC's #1 seed....

Please get Thibs and Azeez back - absolutely zero pass rush, even with the blitzes
Where are all the "Barkley must go" people now??? He won this game
Let’s take it a week at a time compadre.

RIP to both of your Pops.
We started out a little sloppy/slow .... but, turned it around in the 2nd half.
Not sure I remember the last time I was this happy after a win. That was gutsy ....
Mine, too. He passed away in June at 89. Was a season ticket holder from 1956-2013

There were 3 Titans right near him and the he made a radical cut to his right.
And facemasked, mind you...........
Daboll dancing in the locker room!!!
Daboll has fucking balls
I know this is early but, .... (dare I say) - he almost has a touch of Parcells? That was a gutsy call.
Judge plays not to lose.

Also he knows how to use timeouts and challenges

I said good job Coach, go for the win!
Do you think Tom Coughlin or Judge would have done that?

I was sooooo happy seeing that! This guy just has it imo. For the first time in a while I really cant wait to go to the stadium Sunday
Same here!
Anyway looks like Daboll is the real deal
glad the camera caught that - that was legendary

This was my biggest fear! Unbelievable job holding this guy back! Very happy right now!!!
His silence speaks volumes !!!!
He is not a Giant's fan.
Nice to see the Giants win on opening day, it's been awhile!

We had all the momentum and emotion to go for it. Plus making it put additional pressure on Tenn!!

Barkley has been unable to play like that for awhile, and he busted his butt getting back to form - and beyond

Yeah , I think Coughlin might have done that. Shurman or Judge - not so much.

Biggest win in years for this team
