New York Giants vs Detroit Lions Pre-Game Discussion

Just get a W

Feeling good about today  
PatersonPlank : 11/20/2022 10:03 am : link
Lions D sucks, cold weather should lead to Goff ineffectiveness. Barkley should run wild again. Just slow down the Lions run game and we could win easily
Will this be a shootout like the last game with Detroit? Daniel Jones  
Ivan15 : 11/20/2022 10:08 am : link
Proved he was capable in that game, although the Giants lost.
The only thing keeping that from happening may be the weather. If both teams turn to their running game, it may be a very fast game with a running clock.

Does Goff have

much/any experience playing in a late November game in the Meadowlands?

Even one or two games experience could prove invaluable in trying to negotiate the wind in today's likely game conditions
Lions are better than their record

Giants need to get on top of them early on.

Don't let them start to roar.

assume we'll have the same game plan we did against Houston, namely run Barkley a lot. It's windy and the Lions have the second worst run defense in the league. They will of course stack the LOS to stop Barkley so someone will have to emerge as a threat in the passing game to get them to back off a little. Maybe Hodgins or Slayton can fill that role.

Long drives will also allow Lawrence and Williams to rest.

I originally thought this would be a high scoring game, but now think the score will be in the teens or twenties.
Go Giants!

Yeah Baby!

jvm52106 : 11/20/2022 10:31 am : link
of mis direction passing plays, meaning look like run one way and Jones keeps rolls and dumps off quickly. I also think we see a full compliment of running backs on the field today. I doubt Barkley goes for 30 plus carries.

Goff has the arm strength for passing in wind but he is awful on the move and isn't always the most accurate.
Let’s rush for 250 today.

with the wind today

i think team that doesnt turn the ball over on PR and special wins. its a howling wind.
Short to intermediate passing game today......  
Simms11 : 11/20/2022 10:39 am : link
Could keep scoring down too. Also we have to have sure tackling today, as well. Weather might be more of a factor for the Lions and less for us. This weather plays into our offenses strengths, run and short passing game.

The kicking net just blew off the Giants' sideline and onto the field. Feel like that has to mean something...
Good morning BIG Blue Nation

Let's get the W!

It's very simple. Secure the ball, win in the trenches, and play smart. 8-2 is there for the taking. Let's goooooo!

For my fellow Giants fans, stay warm and bring the noise.
This is Giant football weather

Agreed. We're going to have to manufacture yards. Jones rolling out off bootlegs has helped us so far and could be particularly useful today given the wind. The Lions will likely be ready for that, but we still need to try because those plays can be very effective at keeping drives going.

PRs could be a nightmare.
Whatever advantage we can get...Let's take it!  
GiantBlue : 11/20/2022 10:54 am : link
Wind, too much sun in their eyes, a loud, yelling crowd, a pumped up Giants team looking to go to Turkey Day at 8-2!

BBI'ers! I wish us another Sights and Sounds on Tuesday!!!!

He has a back injury. He's questionable.

So much better.

This time of year the past few seasons we were going. over Ray’s draft position threads and talking about where we’d pick and who to draft.

So great to be able to talk about wins and playoff position instead!

No surprises. Reynolds leaves a significant hole. Lions hoping Chark can contribute, coming back from the ankle with just a couple of practices.
Giants inactives are as expected.

Good to see Ezeudu is well enough to dress.

Golladay gets another chance against his old team. Say what you will about KG, I'd rather see him in uniform than Sills.

Calitro continues to collect the weekly vested-veteran guarantee. Ugh.
I predicted a high-scoring game  
Jim in Tampa : 11/20/2022 11:42 am : link
But with cold and windy weather, plus the fact that I discovered that the high-scoring Lions are averaging just 15 pts/game on the road... I now think it will be a low-scoring affair.

Turnovers will be a factor today

One of the network pre-games just posted that Daniel Jones has the longest current streak of passes thrown without an interception.

We don't need that type of jinx. They could have just kept it to themselves.
Sure hoping that, if the GIants kick-off,  
M.S. : 11/20/2022 12:42 pm : link

they don't ask Gano for one of his balls that is aimed to the right for about the 5-10 yard line. That play hasn't worked since the Carolina fumble in Game 2. Most of them since have been run back beyond the 25!
This is a go for 2 after TD day
