I guess PHillips missed the memo on Reeves being the most targeted corner in the league, bad coaching in my opinion, on the def coach, our defesne reaks, it reaked in the start of the season, it reaked in november(we got lucky) and it reaks now, changes have to be made in the offseason, if we loose this game it won't be the offense' fault but on the defense ...out

Yeah, major problems on our defense.

They just can't stop people consistently. Of course, it was Eli on that drive. He is the greatest QB this side of Brady.

Reeves was guilty of the face mask (should have been a 5 yard incidental) but the offsides calls on both Ware And Ellis were highly questionable.

Good signs so far(outside of that last debacle)...but we have to get some pressure on Manning. They WRs have no fear of picking our zones apart, and going man-to-man requires that rush.

Its good to see our O clicking and eating up time. Hopefully the battering will open someone deep. Not sure about Terry's cutting ability, if that was a fluke or as the announcers said, something he has had problems with.

Barber is a beast. Hoping Ratliff starts exploding the middle and I'd like to see some distance, don't want this to be close at the end.

Lets go Cowboys!

The problem wasn't Reeves. It was the decision to not blitz. Eli had all day for the WR to find the zone.

We didn't have to respect the run at all on that final drive and they still scored. Not good.
It's definitely a concern. The defense struggles in the 2 minute drill.

But FWIW, the Giants had last minute first half scores on us in the previous two games. Hopefully we can wear these guys out in the second half.

We did everything we could to take time off the clock and they still scored. Unbelievable!!!!!!:bang2:

With our defense, you essentially have to score with no time remaining to assure that they won't choke and give up the lead.

Reeves is fast, but that's it. He has not instincts for this game. Wade just has to stop being bull-headed and move Reeves to the slot when our best 2 Cbs are in.

This secondary is worthless.

who would you rather trot out there? Ball, Oglesby and Jones are far far worse.

I can no longer make excuses for the play of either Reeves or Williams. The Giants marched 70 yards in 41 seconds by working their side of the field almost exclusively.

Ridiculous.
