Manning will soon terrorize the NFC East

[CowboyChris]

gotta give props to the Giants, they benched Warner when they were 5-4, and although Manning went 1-6, the experience will go along way for them maybe as soon as next year, and it wont be long till Eli starts putting up big numbers in our division.

[AlcoholicNinja]

Probably not.

[jdnalls]

Well the Giants certainly have far more to look forward to next year than we do.

Lance Frazier left his man so open on some of those passes that I could have hit them. Eli ended up with 144 passing yards on 28 attempts. Our DL got no push on a lot of those plays. So while the future looks brighter for Giants fans because Manning took a lot of his lumps this season, I'm not really worried about him terrorizing anything just yet.

Manning played a pretty bad defense tonight. Let's not put him up there with Peyton or Archie just yet.

Four weeks ago, when Manning was enduring his greatest struggles, many here predicted a dominant effort against us considering our tendancy to allow career games to opposing quarterbacks. He looked good, and he will be good, but don't forget the competition.

Unfortunately, I agree. He looks like he is going to develop into a perennial pro bowler. Hopefully they won't be able to develop the rest of the team as well.

But hey we got VT coming back next year,,,the terror of Irving texas.

You forgot to add "rookie/average opposing quarterbacks". It always seems like some young 'un torches our D and embarrasses us... Delhomme, (when he was with the Saints) Carr, and I know I'm leaving some scrub out... :mad:

Look at what Matt Hasselback did to our defense.

[The Curly One]

I think it will prove to be a good move for the Giants. Eli will have some experience going into next year and should turn out to be a good Qb. Next year the Giants have hope with a good young Qb.
I think that NOT playing Henson and getting him game experience will cost us next season. Next year we have Vinny or a unexperienced young guy. Dallas will be the worst team in the NFC Least next year. Eli will get better with ever game and Vinny is... Well he is Vinny. Henson has no game experience so either choice is not a good one. We could at least be optimistic if we had a young Qb with 7 or 8 games of experience and a whole off season to prepare and learn.
Next year we will know if pulling the older guy (Warner or Vinny) to put in the young guy and give him experience was a mistake or mastermind. I think we already know the answer to that one. Curly

the thing that killed me about our pass defense was that they (NY) were doing it with their depth receivers. Tyree who?? And then there was the 3rd TE scoring. It was awful, and ALL of it against Frazier.

[CaptainAmerica]

Matt Hasselback is actually a pretty decent QB. Go look at the stats and see what Brunell and Kyle Boller did against us. They had their best games of the year against us.

Pathetic!!!! :mad: :mad:

[devotedfan]

I gotta see more than 5.1 yd per att. to be terrorized. Not exactly a 'vertical attack' stretching the defense. Don't read too much into one game vs. Zimmer's D.
