OT: Giants

The right move was to trade down and get as many good draft assets as they could get.
I think with a good line Eli could still be a productive QB...and I thought adding Solder and the 2nd round
Pick were two great adds.
What the hell happened.

Never ever ever ever never ever sign a free agent from New England.

Really z? That's not the impression I got from Gint fans on this board or in person.

Do you really think that if they drafted their franchise QB for the second time in 30 years* that they wouldn't be excited? They'd all buy Darnold/Allen/etc jerseys and keep them in their closet for 10 weeks then all have them on for his first start in November. C'mon.


*I'm not counting Dave Brown...and you thought this year was the first time the Giants idiotically burned a draft pick on a supplemental selection!
 
When this idiot said he wouldn't pick up the phone for ANYTHING for #2 overall, this idiot was not kidding. .

Plus, the Steelers line with the run game is a machine. Almost always been good.

Giants offseason plan to fix the OL: let the only 2 competent guys leave, give $60m to one guy, draft the UTEP kid and VOILA! Problem solved! The least mobile QB in the league will surely succeed now!

Decent player? Agreed.

Very good player? I don't think it matters. Chandler Jones, Aqib Talib, Ty Law, Richard Seymour, et al are totally fine to sign.

If they are letting them go - don’t get in their way.

Belichek likes Solder he just doesn’t believe in massive contracts.

Same with Chandler Jones, Willie McGinest, Richard Seymour, Ty Law, Lawyer Milloy, Brandon Cooks, Dion Lewis, Malcom Butler (????)...

Hell they still are nickel and diming Brady
Expand ...

That's a little overblown. I mean, he still making $20million this year. Nothing to sniff at. Tom willing reworks his contract every few years. It's never contentious.
 
Belichek believes in position value. He has a $$ level for each position and won’t pay more. He would never take a running back as number 2 in the draft because the slot is way above position value. His method seems to work.

This past Sunday was total crap show. There was not one positive aspect of the football team during that game.

They should let them stay for the season. At this point, they're better off with a full implosion to get the highest draft pick possible. The Jets may regret these wins when they don't go to the playoffs, and don't get a high pick. Of course, the high draft pick won't mean much if the Giants don't get rid of Reese.

Go Yankees... Go UConn... Football is over.

It's going to be a l-o-n-g season for Giants fans. :( To refresh a statement former Cincinnati Reds outfielder Chris Sabo once made: "They don't got nothin' " :confused: The Giants will be LUCKY to finish 8-8. They won't make the playoffs.

Agree and Cowboy fans minus the quick 7 and FG could feel the same.

Wouldn’t say that, their offensive line did very well, obviously their defense killed it, and they had a good running game.

The good news is we can draft a QB with next year's top-3 pick.

I said top 8 pick earlier in the thread but now I look at the schedule

At Houston
New Orleans
At Carolina
Philly
At Atlanta
Washington
At SF
Tampa Bay
At Philly
Chicago
At Washington
Tennessee
At Indy
Dallas

I don’t see more than 4 wins there. Will be battling it out with Detroit, Buffalo, and Arizona for the top 4 picks

Screw it I wanna go 0-16.
 
Looks like another year I wasted money on DirecTV Sunday ticket. This team is hard to watch.

An outtake from Ian O'Connor's Bill Belichick biography wasn't hired by George Young as a head coach for the Giants:

“He said, ‘He’ll never become the Giants’ head coach. … George, like others, said, ‘This is an ex-lacrosse player. He’s a disheveled-looking mess most of the time.’ George was big on the other stuff as far as appearance, which is why he was so high on Ray Perkins.”

Young grew up in Baltimore’s Tenth Ward and felt lacrosse was a suburban sport for kids who could afford a stick. He also thought that Belichick would struggle with the media, according to O’Connor’s book.

Well, at least he nailed that bit.

Eli certainly looks bad but the OL is so pathetic I can't even get a good read on how bad. Now the C is down for the count. Oof.

Also, what was with Shurmur punting on 4th and inches from the 50 and then going for it 5 minutes later at his own 30?

Lifetime blue fan here who was not overly excited about a career long losing head coach who came off one good year in which his defensive coordinator carried the water (and the OC made fortunate moves for injuries at qb and rb ) getting the headset. Reece and macadoo certainly dug is a hole though.

If it was anyone but saquon I would have sold off that pick. I just feel it was safe and very lucky move to b able to get him. Cleveland being Cleveland!! If rather go after guys going into the second contract and hope for another snee or ohare in the draft. Imagine if will Beatty never broke his retina. He was really coming all along. Flowers is the doom of this team and his three years here are no fluke. Perhaps bobs first year was. The fact the Erick is playing in his natural position now makes it even more obvious that he is not up to this level. There is no way another veteran OL isn’t out there somewhere. It has got to be better. Him being in takes away either a TE RB oroff WR as everyone now has to help his a:;

True!! Shows that coaching and systems are the way. Walker may be the only guy to have success away from Billy B.
 
With all this going on no one seems to mention that our entire defense is based on our. Dry food but thin secondary. Kudos to Eli apple for turning it (and his head) around. He has been great so far and aside from one good read from DAk they have been fantastic. But my lord will we ever sack a quarterback not called Tom Brady again??!?this is killing me and seeing that Khalil Mack is the early MVP and may get Chicago yes Chicago to the playoffs is tearing my soul out. I say trade shep picks and Evan to Denver for any starting OL and Von.

“Talented” isn’t quite the word I would use to describe Wheeler
