That flag didn't seem warranted but it also doesn't seem to have calmed him down. He almost earned an ejection on the next play.

Donnell has a concussion. The injuries mount. Hope we can get out of the half without anyone else getting hurt or penalized, and without giving up another score.

That would be nice for a change, gotta get 7 here before the half
 
Huge break there. Gotta capitalize.

Having the weapons at WR makes it that much more inexcusable the Oline is doing fine Eli needs to wake up.
 
Undisciplined. Penalties. Turnovers.
Tom Coughlin must be rolling over in his grave.
 
The GMen defense puts little to no pressure on the quarterback, QBs like Bradford will just pick it apart.

Send him on a blitz I wanna see him knock Bradford on his @$$, better yet do it against Aaron Rodgers on Sunday night make a name for yourself.

It's hard to watch. I mean you can't go into a game with 3 starters in the defensive back field out, makes it really tough especially when you have 2 real good tacklers and 2 real good cover guys out of the 3.

But every other offense on earth gets their people open, runs stuff that look so easy for the QB - the Giants? No one is open, they finally run a screen on an aggressive rush and Perkins looks great. But the whole game Eli is telling rookies and first time players where to go and the defense seemed to be doing the same. They played against a team with a really good defense and pass rush and yet despite having no names playing were never out of it. But they need to get healthy and pull a 4 of 5 now. But if we don't see some kind of new look offense or adjustments by halftime I'm guessing McAdoo won;t be lasting. Not impressed thus far, good guy kind of like him, but his offense looks horrid and makes way too many mistakes. And it's as talented as it gets.
 
Giants only gave up 24 points with a banged up secondary on the road. The offense is starting to concern me.

Yeah and one of them was a fumbled punt which created great field position for the Vikings. I mean you can't go in to a game with impact players like DRC, Apple and Behre (great tackler) out it's more than difficult. A guy like Wade is a solid back up but when he's on the field that much you're in trouble and the same goes for Hunter and Adams.

But as you say, the offense is way too talented (now Perkins too looked pretty nice) and the line has held it's own, what's the problem getting people open because they aren't open. The coaching? The play calling? The routes? I mean Eli wasn't good in this one but it just doesn't seem to have any rhythm at all or any speed to it. There were times the rookie backs didn't know where to go and there was confusion, so maybe they simplifies it as much as possible, but not too many other teams have those 3 guys as receivers (Harris too who I like out there) and do so little with them. Agree, scary as hell.
 
I don't think Eli trusted his protection last night. He did not look comfortable, also didn't seem to be on the same page with anyone. We'll see if they can straighten it out Sunday night.

100% Eli gives up on plays so fast and just fires the ball into the ground. Its maddening.

He gave up on 2 and fired it into the ground because they were setting up screens and on one Rainey didn't stay put or go left so the play was dead (can't throw downfield the linemen are already heading down so would be a penalty) and the other the RB never got open they read it. They are an awful screen pass team aren't they? I mean Perkins last night was something of beauty but also rare in the Giants system for years. Thought it would improve with Vereen but while it was better, it still wasn't as pretty as other teams run theirs.

This team makes critical errors and critical junctures of every game. I mean they could be 0-4 because of the in game miscues and maybe a re lucky now to be 2-0. If they don't get healthy right away it will be last year all over again.

Was it really only 2? It seemed like it occurred more than that. Guess Eli just looked so scared and uncomfortable all night that it gave the illusion that it happened more.

I thought it was more than twice; I recall maybe three or four times.

I didn't see Eli as scared as much as frustrated.
 
They fired Gilbride. They fired Coughlin. They fired three cheerleaders and the guy who picks up the paper towels in the locker room. When the guy who needs to be fired is Reese. There is not enough talent on this team to win. You might say the Reese just doesn't have enough "pieces."

He did it 2-3 times on penalties which were called, false starts and threw it into the ground in order not to get mowed over. Let's give the Vikings defense some credit here, I mean they have allowed nothing to the Packers, Panthers and Giants 3 weeks in a row making 3 really good QB's look awful. Although the offensive line for the Gmen did a very good job ,the d-backs need some kudos's for shutting down our trio of receivers.

And unless we find a pass rush of sorts soon, this will be a very ugly season because for now JPP and Olivier aren't getting near anyone.

The defense is doing the best it can your not gonna keep Rodgers off the scoreboard although the pass rush could be better. Eli has looked like Tim Boyle he needs to step it up.

He has thrown behind everyone, fumbled on a huge opportunity really awful half for Eli. Pass rush is beyond putrid though and they won't be any good until they do something about it. And now they can't tackle at the line so I'm not as sure about the defense doing a good job as the Pack just not taking advantage. Tye stopped running to look back that was a TD in Eli's defense also a really good TE makes that catch all day. The comedy of errors continues by this team and at some point the coaching staff has to be held accountable. They went from looking like a solid team after 2 weeks to one of the worst teams in the NFL. Arguable the best 2 receivers on one team and no one is ever open? Help me understand this? Disastrous year may be on the horizon and McAdoo may have a quick exit and hopefully Spags with him!

Who needs TE or LB's according to the genius in our front office. Every team in the NFL has a good TE except the Giants.

Giants should go after Jim Harbaugh, and Jerry Reese can go to him and his smug attitude blaming Coughlin for the past 3 seasons.
